Philippines among most corrupt countries

It does’t mean na no.1 and Denmark ay ito ang most corrupted country.There are 179 countries in transparency list 131 ang Pinas.It means corrupted talaga ang Pinas because its almost in the last list..Here are the list http://www.transparency.org/policy_research/surveys_indices/cpi/2007

Oops! same comment po with corrections lang. One of the reasons, why it’s hard to be a Filipino in other countries. The stigma affects everyone including the honest people. A friend of mine said, it’ll take a couple of generations {wiped out) to lessen if not illiminate corrupt people in the Philippines. Kawawa naman ang bayang Pilipinas.

its the fault of our prisident bec.. of the issues that involve her and some of our laeders losesss thier trust in our higher government……….its a metter of self disciple and laedership and FEARR TO GOD……………..

The country of the Philippines is rotten to the core with corruption. Politically, the government handles the opposition with “Extrajudicial Killings”…they are one of the worst countries, in terms of Human Rights violations. As an American who was trying to seek justice in your country, for a crime that was perpetuated by a filipino: I faced obstacles with EVERY single agency dealt with, especially Philippine Immigration. EVERYONE had their hands out expecting me to BUY JUSTICE.
When it comes to the enviornment, the Philippines treats their country like it is one huge landfill. I have never seen such disgustion pollution…people have no pride and are lazy! Your country SUCKS!!! You wonder why God is punishing you…just look at yourself…You are a disgrace to the world!!! You will never change.

Filipinos are not meant to be politicians, they easily get corrupted by power.
It’s so sad that all the hard earned money and taxes that our Filipino countrymen are paying to our government only end up in the politicians pockets.

…phil is a corrupt country…..
its almost impossible to change the level of corruption in goverment officials not only them but almost all the pilipinos are now corrupt .

As a student like me..
kahit hindi pa po ako matured sa ganitong bagay..,
SA TINGIN KO PO HINDI MAPIPIGIL ANG CORRUPTION HABANG HINDI KUMIKILOS ANG MAMAMAYAN..
DAGIL SA PEOPLE POWER BUMAGSAK SI ERAP AT IPINALIT SI GLORIA
NOW ITS TIME TO EXPRESS OURSELVES KUNG SAAN SIYA UMANGAT DUN DIN SIYA BABAGSAK SA PEOPLE POWER

ur gov. technics are the same technic used by the spanish gov.era they flooded the minds of ur people with entertainments, to make the people focus their mind not to politics but to fiestas, like today arroyo is flooding the mind of the people with holidays, entertainment ( they are not strict about censorship during the noontime shows,) but they are very strict about religious progarms, political programs, pressfreedom ect. . . . don’t u people notice that? yes because ure so entoxicated by the wine of ur gov.

im agree about the most coorrupt country and graft in gov, was the philippines. i am filipino and also living in the phil…about the freedom in our country the govrmnt always do nothing but always have for it.

I have to agree with this. Filipinos really have got no idea. From the overall corruption of ordinary people to the government there is a real feeling of something fundamental missing in this country. There is rubbish everywhere, homeless people in the parks, trash on TV and the culture on the surface is a tragic wanna-be American style. From the way the roads are built to just using everyday services such as a post office, it’s always dodgy or difficult. Infrastructure is inadequate, the politics is unstabel, overpopulation is out of control and the religion makes people so conservative that nobody is really willing to touch the issue. As a foreigner, I can rarely go anywhere without people begging for money or people trying to rip me off. The “gimme gimme” theme is indemic in this country and some people who I have dealt with expect to do nothing but want to take everything. Is it little wonder as to why nobody wants to invest in this country?
I feel sorry for those intelligent enough to see past all the blatant commercialisation of everything, the way society is brainwashed through all the trashy song and dance shows rather than focusing on the real issues and just the general selfishness that goes on.
It’s obvious that not all people are filthy, nasty and corrupt. But from someone who has lived in another country it is very obvious to see what’s going on. The prevailing misery and desperation which rules in the Philippines can’t be blamed totally on just the people. However, the culture from which it lives in is making it and will NEVER make it any better than a snake eating it’s own tail. How long and how bad will things get before something changes?
Cheers

Para sakin as of now, ang bansa natin ay wala nang manyayari in the future, kasi di na alam ng mga tao kung sino pa ba ang pag kakatiwalaan sa gobyerno natin un tlga’n willing mag sacrifice sa bansa natin…So ngayon kung tatanongin ako sa atin gov’t ay wala ako masasabi kung hindi pare parehas lng sila n nagkukungwari dhil may mga kinikilingan sila or nag sisiraan used the media…Sana may taong marcos ang pag-iisip at ugalin mabait like cory na mag reveal nang katotohanan, diba guys…

however im first time voters this coming election, and you have your point. but it is really nothing the same with the previous election since ramos.
they’re all the same for me because of one attitude one goal that’s greediness inside and outside of their mind.

agree ako dyan..phil ay bansang mayaman sa likas na yaman pero hindi mayaman na nag prepretend na mayaman tlga, pero mayaman ang pinas sa graft and corruption kindly correct me if im wrong… tnx

kaya nga this coming election nag dadalawang isip pa ako if boboto buh aq or what..
alam kung ganito parin sistema sa bansa natin, so dissapointed & so shameful..
know what our country is the top 1 of the most corrupt country in the asia..
sobrang nakakahiya. oo nga, meron taung mga pinagmamalaki na well-known personalities like manny pacquiao, charice pempenco & arnel penida pero sa likod ng mga ito ay hindi makukubli ang pagiging madumi ng ating bansa.. kahit siguro sandamakmak ang magiging well-known personalities d2 sa pinas kung ganito parin ang sistema ng gobyerno natin, useless parin siguro, pagtatawanan parin tau ng ibang bansa & kasama na dun ang race discrimination.. hahai.. poor country!

wow grabe! bilib ako ni gloria, di na cya nahiya, gusto pa rin mangorakot! tatakbo pa ring congresswoman ng pampanga para mangorakot uli. wow! ang kapal

for me.. wala dpat iblame.. and it’s not even right to talk about whose fault why Philippines is such a corrupted country.. what’s done is done.. si President.. you don’t know her in person to tell how bad she is.. we don’t know what’s in her mind and heart.. but i still believe that God put her in her position for a purpose.. kung tatakbo xia.. wala kaung pakialam.. if she has bad plans in running again.. don’t worry.. for God will do the rest..

KAILANGAN NA ANG MABUTING PINUNO NA MY VISION SA ATING BANSA!!!
SANA PAG NAPATUNAYAN ANG ISANG LINGKOD-BAYAN NA NAGNAKAW SA KABAN NG BAYAN AY PUTULAN NG KAMAY PARA TUMANDA AT HINDI PAMARESAN…
I’M RIGHT???

we just need to train ourselves to be honest when we are still young.. if you are not entrusted for small amount then you can not be trusted for the bigger amount to….
practice being honest

bakit hindi ninyo i try ang may takot sa diyos, si bro. eddie lang ang makakagawa ng bagay na yan join kayo sa bangon pilipinas

a comment for jul…i’m a filipino and i’m not saying that our country is rotten to the core but how can you expect everyone to be proud of a country who is not willing to change? Isn’t it better to just face the facts and from there made a solution? Saying ‘I’m proud to be a Filipino’ won’t change what we are today. We won’t learn if everyone just spoon fed themselves with all the praises.

hindi naman lahat ng pilipino corrupt.hindi naman kaylangan i depende ang lahat sa relihiyon.. hindi nanan mahalaga kung ano yung relihiyon mo ang mahalaga… kung sino ang pinaniniwlaan mo.
