Designated in 2004 by United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan, International Anti-Corruption Day recognises the essential global leadership provided at Merida, where 95 countries took the anti-corruption pledge by signing the Convention. They have since been joined by 42 more signatories, bringing the total to 137 nations.
Was that before or after they arrested Kofi's son for corruption and embezzlement of UN funds?

I remember also that the Philippines awaits with dread the latest ratings every year. They were number one for several years and they are proud that they are now only about number three They just can't understand why all the multinational companies pulled their offices out of the country.
