> looks so good in the corruption statistics The main corruption measurement I know of is the CPI: Corruption Perception Index. It doesn't measure how much corruption there is in any given country, it only measures how much visible corruption there is. I'm sure there are other gauges but that's the one that gets reported and made comparisons on. For a long time Finland tended to be either the top dog on that list, or at least hold firmly its hold in the top-3. As a Finn, I always found that rather depressing, for a simple reason. The top spot on the CPI list tells nothing about how well things are in a country. It merely tells how shitty they are even for the runner-up.
