Re: how to deal with our supreme court
ravage, these surveys cannot be quantified. there is no way to measure whether indonesia is more corrupt than india or pakistan is more corrupt today compared to two years ago. these surveys are subjective opinions of people who make them and more than likely they get all the information from news reports.
when making comparison across countries, i tend to look at cash measures such as fdi and govt revenue etc because these measures are easily observable. over the last two years foreign investors have put in more than $10bn in pak. this measure is better indication of which way corruption in govt is headed compared to any survey. in the end people who get their investment decision wrong end up being fired. so they have more to lose if they get their decision wrong than people making those surveys. no one cares if they get no. 4 and no. 5 wrong.
You are missing out nature of the government when looking at "invesments" pouring in. In "military" government, there cannot be as much "political turmoil" as in "democratic" rule, hence the "stability" which then invites investment as Pakistan has lots of growth potential.
