Corruption Index and Maldives
Since establishment of Maldives Anti-Corruption Board (ACB) since 1991, the board has been investigating number of government corruption cases from capital Mal'e and atolls. Last couple of years government has made the relevant laws, rules and regulations to eliminate the problems of corruption. In addition, awareness programmes are being carried out by the board, targeted to deal with and eliminate the threat of corruption in outer islands.
Despite the fact that Maldives was not listed in any international corruption index and we don't have any survey carried to understand the rate of corruption in these small tiny islands. Although, it was not listed or nor official figures are being released, Maldives, like the rest of the world is facing the threats of corruption. In the private sector as well as the government.
