An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Corruption in Pakistan is widespread, and extends to every sector from government to judiciary, police, health services and education. The problems are long-standing, and despite ongoing calls for reform, and many attempts to improve the situation, there is little evidence of progress. The former government of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (Pakistan Justice Movement) , led by cricketer turned politician Imran Khan, vowed to uproot corruption from all sectors. However, there is little success in bringing accountability across the board. The promise to build a welfare state on the principle of Riasat-e-Madina (state of Madina) has been enshrined by recent government but there is little success on practical grounds.

  • Corruption in Pakistan is widespread, and extends to every sector from government to judiciary, police, health services and education. The problems are long-standing, and despite ongoing calls for reform, and many attempts to improve the situation, there is little evidence of progress. The former government of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (Pakistan Justice Movement) , led by cricketer turned politician Imran Khan, vowed to uproot corruption from all sectors. However, there is little success in bringing accountability across the board. The promise to build a welfare state on the principle of Riasat-e-Madina (state of Madina) has been enshrined by recent government but there is little success on practical grounds. (en)
  • La corruption au Pakistan est le fait de plusieurs facteurs comme l'instabilité politique, la faiblesse de l'économie ou encore une administration qui ne lutte pas efficacement contre ce fléau. L'ONG Transparency International classe le Pakistan au 116e rang des pays où la corruption est la plus présente. Selon plusieurs études, la police est le secteur le plus touché tandis que la moitié des Pakistanais pensent que ce problème grève le Pakistan d'un développement économique actif. La classe politique est liée à la corruption en la favorisant durant la dictature militaire à partir de 1958 ou encore dans des affaires notables à la fin du XXe siècle par la démission de cinq gouvernements accusés de telles malversations. En 2017, c'est la famille du premier ministre Nawaz Sharif qui est accusée. (fr)
