Myanmar

March 25, 2008
Myanmar scored 1.4 points -- as against 2 in the previous survey. It ranks 179th in the most corrupt nations list. The Indian neighbour shares the dubious distinction of being the world's most corrupt nation with Somalia.

Reasons for Myanmar's deterioration:

  • Insurgency
  • Lack of transparency on the part of the ruling military junta
  • Widespread violence and protests in recent times
