Korea ranks 45th on Corruption Perceptions Index: Transparency International
- 5 years ago
South Korea came in 45th out of 180 countries in the Corruption Perceptions Index report last year.
Released by Transparency International, it shows the level of corruption in the country's public sector.
Seoul scored 57 points in 2018,... up three extra points from the year prior.
70 and up are considered "generally clean" while 50 or above means "not entirely corrupt."
The Cheongwadae said the result of the report, the highest figure in Korea's history, is a reflection of the Moon administration's push for an all-out effort to eradicate corruption.
Despite the improvement,... Korea still ranks 30th out of 36 OECD members.
