[frankie machine]

is this article actually implying that there are countries which are more corrupt than thailand?

 

[talahtnut]

Unbelievable.

The uk should be almost black, right down the bottom of the list.

Thailand has plenty of scope for improvement with a rating like that !

I noticed this in the Indy today, which I hadn't seen before. Good luck to the PM in sorting this out :-

 

"Thailand s prime minister arrived in Saudi Arabia on Tuesday for the first high-level meeting since relations between the nations soured three decades ago over a sensational jewelry heist that led to a diplomatic row and string of mysterious killings. The official visit by Thai Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha to Riyadh signals the nations are seeking to thaw relations, long chilled by the 1989 scandal. Saudi Arabia downgraded its diplomatic ties with Thailand over the theft that became known as the Blue Diamond affair.

I can relate to the Corruption Perception study. I was walking down Soi 6 and my Sexy Man Perception has moved up 6 notches since the beginning of Covid. It's true, I'm really feelng the chemistry. For you naysayers, I confirmed the results with the Mamasan who said I am much more sexier than before.
