rooster59 Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Thailand 96th in world for honesty - 35,000 state corruption cases in last decade Image: Sanook Sanook reported that corruption among state officials in Thailand was decreasing year on year. But the problem was still big and needed to constantly be addressed. In the latest figures Thailand rated 37 points on an international honesty index placing it in 96th place among 180 countries. The kingdom rated the fourth most honest country in ASEAN behind Singapore, Brunei and Malaysia. Government spokesman Wisanu Khreuangam said things were getting better but it was an ongoing drive to rid the country of corruption among state officials. He revealed there had been 35,580 claims of state employee corruption in the last 11 years since 2008. Sanook did not report on how many of these resulted in prosecution, however. The 96th place and 4th in ASEAN related to figures from 2017. Source: Sanook -- © Copyright Thai Visa News 2019-01-26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might that reduction might also be the result of consolidating corruption by government leadership that holds absolute power, not bound by the rule of law and has constitutional guaranteed amnesty?

This is just the corruption they found / is reported. No way to know how much it is for real. Most of it stays hidden I wonder how much corruption there really is and if it is getting better or worse. It think there is almost no way to find out. I do know that the cops now more often then before put people in jail for drunk driving. So there is some improvement not sure if it is the same for all corruption.

Thomas J Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 I am from the USA. Please tell me which country does not have corruption? In Mexico you bring cash to bribe officials. It USA we give our politicians the ability to start " foundations" make great real estate deals, access to stock insider information or grant special government licenses I can assure you the USA is as corrupt and evil as any country. We are just more sophisticated in how our corruption works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt true, but that doesn't make it OK, and even worse funds taken in corruption in this country, a third world developing country, is massive and severely reducing development of education, health, effective policing and lots more...

robblok Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 1 hour ago, scorecard said: Just another of your less than honest posts... You know it Eric will never say anything bad about Thaksin. Some people never learn. They can only attack one side but are to blind about the corruption on their side. The sad truth is that they all corrupt, and none of them want to change a thing. Otherwise I am sure it had happened. I can't recall the PTP ever trying to make any anti corruption laws. I do remember that their boss tried to bribe judges and such with a cake box full of money. So Just as corrupt as the junta and just as interested in fighting corruption as the junta. They only want to fight the corruption committed by their political enemies.
