When a person in Belgium turns 65, the pension authority sends them a message.

Corruption is an ugly thorn on the leg of modern society. Sometimes it seems that it will disappear from the face of the earth only with humanity. But some people managed to pin bribery to the nail. And their success in this difficult business is impressive! Today we will tell you how corruption prevention works in different countries of the world. This experience is worth adopting!



Prevention of corruption in Khabar is not only criminal enrichment. In conjunction with it, there is treason and offenses in the field of social security, medicine, industrial safety and land ownership. Where corruption blossoms, people tighten their belts.

The level of bribery in the country is measured by the Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI). On the basis of consolidated information, the state is ranked on a scale from 0 to 100. The closer to the “hundred”, the worse the population relates to bribery.



Countries with the lowest level of corruption: Denmark tops the list of world leaders with a score of 90. It is followed by Finland with 87 points, New Zealand and Norway with 85 and 84 points respectively. Canada, Switzerland, Singapore, Belgium and Luxembourg showed good results.

Danish citizens get ‘vaccinated’ against corruption from their young fingernails She is literally disgusted here. Every Dane signs two documents when applying for a job: an employment contract and an anti-corruption agreement. Deciding to take or give a bribe, he risks losing his position in two accounts.

Also in Denmark, you can call a special hotline and complain about bribery. Every complaint will be answered and the perpetrators will be punished.



In New Zealand, the SFO works for the benefit of a good society. Its representatives are fighting a major fraud. They have the right to demand any legal document from any resident of the country - from a gas station worker to a politician.

New Zealand journalists track every cent in the accounts of the powerful. Summary of spending on cars, apartments, hotels, clothes and even restaurant accounts are regularly published in the media. Therefore, local officials and politicians lead a righteous lifestyle. No one wants to lose their job even because of a tiny corruption scandal.

And any New Zealander can take courses from the state to combat bribery and fraud. Find out how and where to complain if you try to cheat. Prevention of corruption works at the highest level here.



Belgium is a country with no minerals and no oil, but there are those who don’t take other people’s money! The Belgian CPI is quite high at 73 points. This is how low levels of corruption affect life in the country.

When a 65-year-old Belgian retires, he or she receives a notice from the Pension Office that reads, “You are retired.” Please send us your bank account number to receive monthly payments. If you have any questions, call this number and we will schedule an interview.”

Belgian grandparents will not hide money for a rainy day in banks and under mattresses. The state took care of their welfare through profitable initiatives.



Thus, local pensioners receive a discount on renting housing, transport and electricity. Health insurance in Belgium is paid, but the elderly pay only half the cost. The same goes for dental services. The medical system obliges the elderly to undergo an examination at least once a year. Otherwise, you can get a fine, although not a large one.

We used to believe that bribery is a national phenomenon. But 120 of 180 countries scored less than 50 CPI points. This makes corruption a global problem.



At the end of 2023, Ukraine received 36 points, ahead of Russia by 10 points. Over the past decade, Ukraine has added as much as 11 points and continued to grow even during a full-scale war. The anti-corruption ecosystem was built from scratch, and it began to bear fruit.

However, the country may lose its achievements. This is inevitable if journalists continue to be pressured for the truth. The defense sector is also under a big blow due to high-profile corruption scandals. There's still a lot of work to do. But Ukrainian esotericist Darina Frein is confident that powerful anti-corruption processes will begin in Ukraine this summer.
