Bhutan climbed one step higher in last year’s Corruption Perception Index (CPI) as per the global civil society organisation, Transparency International. It ranked 26th least corrupted countries from 180 countries.
In 2016, it was placed at 27th position among the 176 countries. This is the twelfth successive year that Bhutan had featured in the index and saw considerable progress over the years.
The CPI shows New Zealand and Denmark as the cleanest countries while Syria, South Sudan, and Somlia are ranked at the bottom, obviously indicating that they are the most corrupted countries.
