Corrupt Countries

Posted by Matt in July 6th, 2008

Corruption continues to intensify in two-fifths of the world’s nations, nurtured by persistent poverty, political instability and crime.

In percentage terms, the number of countries perceived to be corrupt fell slightly, according to recent surveys by Transparency International, an international watchdog group. But that’s only because the sample size of its annual study has gotten larger with the addition of 17 countries.

Of the 180 countries looked at in its most recent rankings, 132 had index scores below 5, including Greece, India, Mexico, Brazil, Saudi Arabia and Thailand. Some 56 countries were rated below 3, a level that indicates rampant corruption, including Argentina, Pakistan and Russia.

Delarey Song - Why the outcry, Beloved country - Part 1
Why did the De la Rey song about the Boer War elicit such a strong response from South Africans, particularly the Afrikaans speaking people? After watching this 2-part video, you may understand. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH Jon Qwelane: Somehow, government leaders always have the temerity to "reassure" overseas countries that everything in South Africa is hunky-dory and all the negative things reported about the country are the work of whiners and disaffected white people hankering after a return of apartheid rule and people unhappy about blacks ruling the country! Corruption in this country is at an all-time high, and anyone who tries to excuse or somehow condone government complicity is simply being dishonest in the extreme. Here is an example of this type of rampant corruption for which...

IP #223: Black Box Voting and Worse
The election system is broken. We reprised our segment on Black Box voting. You may start off thinking that those voting machines are ... all » really ripping off our democracy, but there's more: The Black Box investigators found out the system is broken in many other ways too. "Understand something. You cannot manipulate a national election without having a network of local corruption. That local corruption has evolved over about 100 years. But it is fairly easy to find by simply following the money in a given county. For example, in some counties the money is in development and the key positions which are most vulnerable to election corruption are the county supervisor or county commissioner positions which sign off on zoning because millions and sometimes hundreds of millions of...

BUSHED! (Part 09) - Bush corruption scandals exposed
Sarah Palin summed up the Republican Party's turn to Fascism perfectly when she mocked Senator Obama "Terrorists still plot to inflict catastrophic harm on America ... he's [Obama] worried that someone won't read them their rights." I won't take a back seat to flag-waving Republicans and their "patriotism." Besides the fact that my son stood up and volunteered, Sarah Palin would not have been nominated if it were not for the abortion issue and John McCain's need to shore up the commitment of the Evangelical pro-life right wing. As John McCain and the leaders of Religious Right know (including figures such as Dr. Dobson and Pat Robertson, Rev. Hagee and their ilk) there would have been no Evangelical pro-life movement as we know it without my and my father's connecting the Republican...

America's New Frontier - Angola
January 2005 Revenue from Angola's oil reserves should be aiding the country's development. But instead, it's being used as a slush fund for government corruption. Deep in Luanda's sewers, a group of boys show us around their home. "I'm desperate for help," begs one. "I'm eating rubbish, surrounded by others who are sniffing glue." According to the latest calculations, 9% of the country's GDP is siphoned off. Even the US ambassador admits that oil revenues are not going to "the Angolan people." Ordinary Angolans know they're being ripped off by their leaders. They're seething with resentment. In the Angolan enclave of Cabinda, this discontent has fuelled a separatist movement which has been fighting for years. With more and more Angolans asking awkward questions, there's a risk the...

World Business: Crushed by Corruption 12/09/08
World Business: Visiting the Philippines these days its hard to believe that in the 1960s it was the second richest country in Asia after Japan, and was seen as one of the most promising developing economies. Now the Philippines has been left behind not only by the likes of Singapore and Malaysia, but also neighbours such as Thailand and even Indonesia. So why has it failed when others have succeeded?
