The graph above shows Malaysia’s Corruption Perception Index (CPI) score for the past 11 years (1996-2006) done by Transparency International. Malaysia’s CPI score and rank were also compared to the overall performance of the participant countries.
1) CPI Score: the average CPI score for Malaysia is 5.06, and 10 is the max score for least corruption. Malaysia’s score fluctuated around 4.8 (worst) to 5.3 (best) and stagnant around 5.0 to 5.1.
2) On the surface, the CPI rank for Malaysia is seemed to be deteorioting across the time, especially the recent years (26 in 1996 to 44 in 2006). However, this is done without considering the factor whereby the number of countries participated in this survey also increased across the time as well (54 countries in 1996 to 163 countries in 2006).
3) The median rank and its score (the CPI score of median rank) from all the participant countries was checked. The score of the median rank is decreasing from 5.3 (1996) to 3.2 (2006).
4) Rank percentile: Rank percentile= ranking*100/total number of countries. Malaysia maintains her rank at top 27% country from year 2003 to 2006 and better than previous years (1996 to 2002) due to the smaller number of participant countries.
