Transparency International announced Corruption Perceptions Index 2005
國際透明組織公佈2005年各國清廉指數
Taiwan was ranked 32nd, up from 35th in 2004, with its Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) raising from 5.6 to 5.9. Since it is the value of CPI rather than the rank can reflect the degree of corruption in public sector of a country, I reviewed the indices ever released to see if the situation is really improving in Taiwan. Let's check the following,
Year CPI Rank
2005 5.9 32
2004 5.6 35
2003 5.7 30
2002 5.6 29
2001 5.9 27
2000 5.5 28
1999 5.6 28
1998 5.3 29
1997 5.02 31
1996 4.98 29
1995 5.08 -
It seems the degree of corruption is decreasing sluggishly after the millennium, but it is evident that the peaceful transition of political power in 2000 did have significant influences. As one can average the CPI values perioded between 1995-1999 (gives 5.2) and those between 2001-2005 (gives 5.74) to find that, under the DPP administration, the situation is improving though in a slow progress.
