In the last week this year's "transparency org" world corruption perception report has been published. It's a report which is taken seriously by some, and certainly no country looking for foreign investment wants to be at the bottom of the 163 states ranked this year. (Interestingly the world boasted 158 states for last year's report) where the ruffians and loveable rogues do business & banking is where children are sold, birds have flu, and misery is cheap. From the launch “Corruption traps millions in poverty,” said Transparency International Chair Huguette Labelle. “Despite a decade of progress in establishing anti-corruption laws and regulations, today’s results indicate that much remains to be done before we see meaningful improvements in the lives of the world’s poorest citizens.” |

Jump To Comment: 1I particularly liked the image of the 'anti-corruption suggestion box'.
Like the little wooden boxes in parish halls and community centres all over the world.
One wonders whom has the key and if they like making paper airplanes.
It encourages people to anonymity and alas not to stand up and confront
corruption- such as having a suggestion box in the oil conference today,
far better to go along and embarass the feckers and make sure that they
know where you are at....
