Transparency International is Berlin based and is the internationally
acknowledged authority on the subject of corruption. Pakistan has been
quite consistently recognized by it as among the most corrupt natiions
on earth.
In fact, the actual corruption in Pakistan is way worse than revealed
by Transparency because Pakistan's center of corruption is its
military which has powerful allies who have a vested interest to hide
the full extent of Pakistan's exceedingly high level of corruption.
As is to be expected, nations ruled under military boots usually tend
to be more corrupt than those that have a tradition of rule by
democracy where peaceful transitions in governments is the norm rather
than the exception.
In South Asia, Pakistan and Afghanistan are significantly more corrupt
than, say, India & Sri Lanka. Here's Pakistan's standing in corruption
according to Berlin based Transparency International in terms of the
cpi (Corruption Perception Index):
