Singapore is 5th Least Country in the World

10 most corrupt and least corrupt countries in the world

Wednesday, Dec 04, 2013
In some countries, business owners can go their way in the happy knowledge that government officials won't be hitting them up for bribes or tossing them in jail on trumped-up charges. But in other parts of the world, public sector corruption is a fact of life.

Hoping to shine a light on this widespread problem, Transparency International, a non-governmental organisation that serves as a watchdog for corporate and political corruption, has published its Corruption Perceptions Index for 2013.

The index ranks countries around the world by perceived level of government corruption, with a score of 100 signaling an absence of official corruption and a score of 0 indicating a country that is hopelessly corrupt.

Of the 177 countries and territories listed on the index, less than one-third managed to break 50. As No. 127 Nicaragua would say, that's no bueno. So in what countries can you trust public officials and what places should you avoid?

To start, the Nordic countries are a safe bet for business, with Denmark, Finland, Sweden and Norway all among the least corrupt nations. Rounding out the top five are New Zealand, tied for first with Denmark with a score of 91, and Singapore, tied with Norway for No. 5.

Here are the 10 least corrupt countries in the world, according to the index:

1.Denmark

2.New Zealand (tied with Denmark for No. 1)

3.Finland

4.Sweden (tied with Finland for No. 3)

5.Norway

6.Singapore (tied with Norway for No. 5)

7.Switzerland

8.Netherlands

9.Australia

10.Canada (tied with Australia for No. 9)

Singapore has been ranked second on INSEAD's Global Talent Competitiveness Index, which was launched on Tuesday.

SINGAPORE: Singapore has been ranked second on INSEAD's Global Talent Competitiveness Index, which was launched on Tuesday.

It is the only Asian country to feature in the Top 20 of the index.

The index measures a nation's competitiveness based on the quality of talent it can produce, attract and retain.

INSEAD placed Switzerland at the top, followed by Singapore and Denmark in second and third.

Improving tertiary education can't just be about increasing varsity places: Singapore PM Lee

Improving tertiary education can't just be about increasing varsity places: Singapore PM Lee

Launching the National University of Singapore's (NUS) new University Town, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said the challenge is for local universities to keep improving and serving Singaporeans better.

SINGAPORE: Improving Singapore's tertiary education cannot just be about increasing university places, said Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong.

Launching the National University of Singapore's (NUS) new University Town, Mr Lee said the challenge is for local universities to keep improving and serving Singaporeans better.

The NUS University Town (UTown) cost S$600 million to build, and it is the first of its kind in Singapore.

It is an integrated living and learning environment, which features research centres, residential colleges and recreational facilities.

Launching UTown on Thursday evening, Mr Lee said it is an example of how NUS is enhancing its student experience.

"It shrinks NUS into a smaller community, so that students can foster closer ties with their schoolmates and teachers. Each college will have its distinct features, but all of them will emphasise multidisciplinary learning, with intensive small-group sessions to encourage interaction and discussions," he said.

Mr Lee said UTown is part of broader efforts to upgrade Singapore's tertiary education system. But he believes that improving tertiary education cannot just be about increasing university places.

Mr Lee said: "But improving tertiary education cannot just be about increasing university places. Other countries have found that having large proportions of students going to university does not necessarily guarantee happy outcomes.

"Take for example South Korea, where 70% of students attend university, but the Korean economy cannot generate jobs for all of them, especially jobs to match their training and their aspirations, so unemployment among university graduates is higher even than graduates of vocational high schools.

"Or take Denmark, a Scandinavian country, much admired and with much to learn from. 50% of each cohort attend university, but after they graduate, within a year more than a quarter of those who graduate are still unemployed."

He said Singapore's universities must equip students with skills that are relevant in the future, while maintaining their rigour and standards.

And this is a consideration even as the government expands the university sector, with Singapore's fifth and sixth universities offering full-time applied degree programmes from next year.

Their challenge, Mr Lee said, is to keep improving and serving Singaporeans better.

And this cannot be measured by international rankings alone.

He said: "Because our universities are unlike top universities in bigger countries - Harvard or Stanford in the US, Oxford or Cambridge, Beida or Qinghua in China, University of Tokyo in Japan.

"These admit a very small percentage of the university students in their countries. Whereas in Singapore, our universities admit the bulk of Singaporean students who are going to university, and therefore, besides maintaining good research rankings our universities have to work hard, to develop each student to his or her full potential."

At the same time, Mr Lee said Singapore's universities have important national and social roles - to develop students' character, imbue in them Singaporean values and ethos, and build lasting friendships.
