Between Nigeria And China, Which Country Is More Corrupt? by agabaI23(m): 8:42pm On Apr 18, 2009 |
I think China is a very corrupt country. These guys know how to cut corners. The problem is when a country progresses economically, the world truns a blind eye to it corrupt practices. Read this old report and commentary here Let me know your opinion. Their is a saying that all humans have the tendency to embrace corruption when the environment permits. |

The Chinese are only corrupt outside their country especially when aided by local indignes. The question is why are they not corrupt in the u.k or u.s.a |

It doesnt matter because China is becoming a superpower while Nigeria is going stuttering. Nigeria by far to answer your question. In China stealing public funds is considered treason and carries the death penalty. And yes, it is enforced. |

Good points from you all! Sorry if you read the unedited commentary in the link. |

blacksta: You are very right. They dare not be corrupt in China. Been a Communist nation, China has very strict rules on corruption. www...com |

Who is more corrupt? There isn't a doubt that Nigeria will predictably win the Gold medal here. At least in China, people actually go to jail and die via the law when caught. In Nigeria IBB et al all walk free till today. |

and to say this thread was started by a Nigerian, what is wrong with you? Why cant you compare your country to other countries in terms of good things, why pick on the bad things to display here? Tell me which country is not corrupt, tell me and prove to me that there is no worse corruption in America than in Nigeria - prove this to me. |

Nigerians are the number 1 corrupt country on this planet. |

i_laugh: I think as human nature, you will find it is easier to criticise and find faults, than to praise. Requiring a proof will be very hard, however it is generally accepted that Nigeria is more corrupt. A good example is the follow and application of rule of law. At least people/government in America do things according to their constitutions and have respect for the rule of law than in Nigeria. A good example, will be the state governor that wanted to sell Obama's seat to the highest bidder! Remember that case? [Very recent]. He is in jail now and he was removed as a state governor very swiftly. Things like that will probably not happen in Nigeria in a pretty much straightforward manner like that etc. You see, it is a fair point to say Nigeria is more corrupt in my opinion. |

Dr Malgwi: According to "Transparency international" we aint the most corrupt in the world. I guess that is a relief, but we are among the top 10. |
Re: Between Nigeria And China, Which Country Is More Corrupt? by DrMalgwi(m): 10:04am On Apr 19, 2009 |
Nigerians are more corrupt. |

I don't understand Dr. |

In china, people serve a two years jail term for mere picking pocket, while their leaders are sentenced to death if found corrupt. In nigeria, armed robbers are happily released back into the streets after their folks must have given bribe to the police, while their leaders are given chieftancy tittles and national honors for being corrupt. In the area where i live, a ten years old girl can walk alone in the streets at about 2am in the morning without the parents loosing sleep. All these does not mean that china is not corrupt even with a little margin, but sure, nigeria is 100 times more corrupt than china. |

ikeyman00: If that is the definition of corruption [which it isnt] then I urge Nigerians to be as corrupt the Chinese way. Just imagine the amount of things we will achieve if we have to do things the China man way? |
Re: Between Nigeria And China, Which Country Is More Corrupt? by chidichris(m): 3:28pm On Apr 19, 2009 |
this is the simpliest question i have seen in my whole life. a very rich country without light - nigeria. nigeria is in the dark and we all know that darkness stands for evil. if for no other reason, every country in the world is known for one thing or the other. between nigeria and china, nigeria is known for corruption while china is known with industrialisation. in a very plain language, everybody and everything in nigeria is corrupt. our no 1 citizen is fraudulent and corrupt. our judiaciary that is supposed to be the hope of a common man is corrupt and the legislature is a very bad news. in fact, another name for nigeria is corruption. |

According to the survey carried out last year by Transparency International, using the somewhat confusing but nonetheless respected corruption perception index(CPI), China ranked 72 with an index of 3.6, while our good ol' Nigeria was a far away 121, with a index of 2.7. Some analysts however, have questioned the whole CPI thingy, citing bias, unreliability of the methods employed, the claim that some of the participants in the survey, especially the foreign ones, usually have ingrained prejudices against the country in question and may not base their perception on the current situation or on efforts being made by the Government of the country to tackle corruption. This is the argument we always use defend and console ourselves for our persistently abysmally low rating, in spite of the much talked about anti-corruption crusadeyeye people Note: TI defines the CPI Score as ''perceptions of the degree of corruption as seen by business people and country analysts, and ranges between 10 (highly clean) and 0 (highly corrupt)''. the complete ranking is here: http://www.transparency.org/policy_research/surveys_indices/cpi/2008 |

China is less corrupt weren't some guys sentenced to death over the tainted milk scandal? They would be walking free if it was Naija. China isn't a pure country but they are serious about their public image. |
