The results are showing. There was an initiative under HRH the Emir's leadership a year or so, to get serious about eradicating this.
Subject to the usual limitations of any research or survey, the USA has regressed from the past few years. So has my Malaysia :0( .. But I do know that the powers that be here are doing something concrete about changing that with our new Govt Transformation Programme that has yielded some encouraging results so hope that next year's ratings will be better.
Having said the above, of course, I'm not dissing the USA. A country its size is so much more difficult to police. Checks and balances need to be in place, it's citizens' awareness and feedback to govt, etc. Everyone has an important part to play. Indifference or passive ones who sit by and just complain are not helping the situation.
Kudos to Qatar!
