- Daily Lives and Corruption, Public Opinion in Southern Africa0.62 MB
More than half of all those who come in contact with public service providers – 56% – were asked to pay a bribe in the past year, according to a new survey of six Southern African countries published by Transparency International, the anti-corruption organisation.
The survey also found that across the region 62% of people believe corruption has become worse in the past three years.
Daily Lives and Corruption, Public Opinion in Southern Africa surveyed more than 6 000 people in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Malawi, Mozambique, South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe between 2010 and 2011.
The good news is that 80% of those interviewed said they were prepared to get involved in the fight against corruption and three-quarters said ordinary people can make a difference in the fight against corruption.
