Singapore Drop Two Rank In The Corruption Perceptions Index
An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:

Good governance is having a good system that will ensure the country survives, so that citizens have secure lives. In 2012, the Political and Economic Risk Consultancy ranked Singapore #1 for having the best bureaucracy in Asia. The World Economic Forum’s ‘2011 – 2012 Global Competitiveness Report’ also reaffirms that Singapore has the highest public trust of politicians and the least burden of government regulation. According to corruption watch-dog Transparency International’s ‘2010 Corruption Perceptions Index’, Singapore is perceived to be the least corrupt nation in the world. Under the PAP, Singapore has one of the best health care infrastructures in the world, with various dignitaries and royals from the region patronizing local hospitals -- Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe even slipped in quietly for a 'secret cancer check-up' in 2008. The health care provision system is also one of the world's best, so good that some say it beats the proposed ObamaCare model. Time magazine called Singapore the global paragon of water conservation. Through sheer effort, and more than a little desperation (Singapore imports less than half the population's water from neighboring Malaysia with agreements set to expire in 2011 and 2061), the island turned to desalination technologies to provide for thirsty citizens. The result is NeWater, which is non-potable wastewater filtered into high-purity H2O that can be used for industrial development and even drinking. In many countries, 'public housing' conjures images of poverty, crime and places Rambo wouldn't tread without a Sherman. Not so here. Public housing is actually pretty good, with most of the population living in government-managed apartments -- it's just not cheap. In fact, far from poverty, Singapore has the highest density of millionaires at 8.5 percent of the population. So, be HAPPY that you have the PAP for you and me. I am not saying the Opposition cannot do this. But PAP clearly has the track record. And it will consistently deliver. Why choose to use the 2010 Corruption Perceptions Index? Is it because Singapore has dropped from rank 1 to rank 5 in the Corruption Perceptions Index after 2010. Here are the results of the Corruption Perceptions Index since 2010: 2010: http://www.transparency.org/cpi2010/results Rank 1 - Denmark Rank 1 - New Zealand Rank 1 - Singapore Rank 4 - Finland Rank 4 - Sweden Rank 6 - Canada 2011: http://www.transparency.org/cpi2011/results Rank 1 - New Zealand Rank 2 - Denmark Rank 2 - Finland Rank 4 - Sweden Rank 5 - Singapore 2012: http://www.transparency.org/cpi2012/results Rank 1 - Denmark Rank 1 - Finland Rank 1 - New Zealand Rank 4 - Sweden Rank 5 - Singapore 2013: http://cpi.transparency.org/cpi2013/results/ Rank 1 - Denmark Rank 1 - New Zealand Rank 3 - Finland Rank 3 - Sweden Rank 5 - Norway Rank 5 - Singapore What you had mentioned is just a snap shot of PAP's past. Past record is not a promise of future performance. 2014: http://www.transparency.org/cpi2014/results#myAnchor1 Rank 1 - Denmark Rank 1 - New Zealand Rank 3 - Finland Rank 3 - Sweden Rank 5 - Norway Rank 5 - Switzerland Rank 7 - Singapore Click here to view the whole thread at www.sammyboy.com.
