Popular Post snoop1130 Posted February 2, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 2, 2023 BANGKOK (NNT) - According to the 2022 Corruption Perceptions Index by Transparency International, Thailand’s corruption standing improved by 9 places to 101st out of 180 countries, compared to 110th in 2021. National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) Secretary-General Niwatchai Kasemmongkol said Thailand scored 36 points, an increase from 35 points in the previous year. Denmark topped the list as the world’s best performer with a score of 90 points, followed by Finland and New Zealand with 87 points each. Singapore was the best-performing Asian country, ranked 4th globally with 83 points. According to Niwatchai, Thailand also received higher scores in last year’s assessments from the IMD World Competitiveness Yearbook and the World Economic Forum, increasing from 39 to 43 and 42 to 45 points, respectively. Niwatchai stated that the Thai government has taken a more serious approach to deal with bribery by reforming its project approval system by scrapping bureaucratic red tape and reducing official discretion. The NACC has also developed information technology and communication systems to support anti-corruption efforts, such as its agency case monitoring system, as well as promoting public participation to aid in efforts to combat corruption in the country.

Srikcir Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Keep in mind these kinds of index rankings are relative to all countries in the ranking. For example, in 2021 Thailand's Democracy Index ranking improved more than any other country in the world! One can argue that when other Asian countries slip (ie,, Myanmar) in the idex score, Thailand's index will improve if it does nothing for improvement - just maintains the status quo. Personally I find both the Corruption and Democracy indexes driven more by forward looking expectations than by fact-based statistics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are, with less people getting caught and when they do they pretend and lie that it didn't happen, hence the many recent police stories. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcmj Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Don’t worry it’ll be going down a few spots by the next review I’m sure. I don’t put much stock in these reports but if they don’t go down then we All know it’s a farce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydebolle Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Well, that survey was certainly not done among the RTP ...... but then, maybe an extra thick envelope ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
