Iraq

March 25, 2008
Iraq scored 1.5 points -- same as in the previous survey. This makes Iraq the 3rd most corrupt nation on Earth, after Somalia and Myanmar.

Reasons for Iraq's poor score:

  • Political unrest
  • Incessant warfare
  • Repeated foreign invasions
  • People's incompetence
  • Bangladesh continues to be the most corrupt among the South Asian countries and is ranked at 162.
