Corruption Is Worlds Most Talked About ProblemCorruption is the worlds most frequently discussed global problem, according to a new BBCpoll surveying more than 13,000 people across 26 countries.

The findings show that more than one in five (21%) of those polled said they had discussedcorruption and greed with friends and family over the past month, making it the most talkedabout global problem, ahead of climate change (20%), extreme poverty and hunger (18%),unemployment (16%), and the rising cost of food and energy (15%).

Issued on UN International Anti-Corruption Day, the BBC World Speaks poll, conducted byGlobeScan on behalf of BBC World Service, showed corruption was particularly likely tohave been discussed by developing-world citizens, including respondents in Kenya (63%),Nigeria (49%), Indonesia (45%), and India (30%). But significant numbers in industrialisedcountries like Italy (14%), Spain (13%), and Canada (11%) had also discussed it.In a separate question, respondents were also asked to rate the seriousness of 14 globalproblems. As well as being the most talked about issue, corruption was also rated as thesecond most serious problem, with 68 per cent on average rating it as very serious. Onlyextreme poverty was rated as more serious (69%). Poverty thus emerged as the mostserious perceived global problem for the second year in succession.

Majorities in all but four of the countries polled rated corruption as a very serious problem,with Brazilians (96%), Egyptians (91%), Colombians (88%), Filipinos (87%) and Kenyans(86%) most likely to rate it as very serious, but it was also rated among the most seriousissues in China (73%), the USA (68%), Russia (67%) and India (66%). In Europe, Italianswere the most concerned about corruption (72%).After corruption, environmental pollution (64% very serious), terrorism (61%), human-rightsabuses, and the rising cost of food and energy (both 59%) were rated as the next mostserious issues.The results are drawn from a survey of 13,353 adult citizens across 26 countries and the

poll was commissioned by the BBC to understand which global issues they consider mostserious. It was conducted for BBC World Service by the international polling firm GlobeScan.GlobeScan coordinated fieldwork between June and September 2010. Results withincountries are considered accurate within +/- 3.0 to 4.9 per cent 19 times out of 20.

Further FindingsClimate Change Concern DropsClimate change was rated as only the eighth most serious issue, with 56 per centconsidering it a very serious global problem. The findings show that concern about climatechange has diminished significantly in almost all of the worlds major industrialised nationssince the perceived failure of the Copenhagen summit at the end of 2009 - but that more

people than before in key emerging economies like China, Brazil, India, and Russia now seeclimate change as a very serious global problem.

Compared to 2009, the proportions seeing climate change as very serious fell in countriesincluding the UK (down 12 points), the USA (down 7 points), France (down 11 points),Canada (down 11 points), Germany (down 6 points), Spain (down 18 points), and Japan(down 12 points). However, the proportions seeing it as very serious climbed in developingnations including Brazil (up 7 points), China (up 9 points), Russia (up 10 points), and India(up 19 points).China vs US

In China, 27 per cent said they had talked about climate change over the previous month,twice as many as the next most discussed issues (other environmental problems at 14%,corruption and the state of the global economy, both at 13%). In contrast, Americans weremuch more likely to have talked about the state of the global economy (33%), with 15per cent saying they had discussed climate change with their friends and family over theprevious month, 15 per cent mentioning terrorism, and another 15 per cent mentioning otherenvironmental problems.In total 13,353 citizens in 26 countries were interviewed face-to-face, online (for Japanonly), or by telephone between June 24 and September 18, 2010. Polling was conducted forBBC World Service by the international polling firm GlobeScan and its research partners ineach country. In nine of the 26 countries, the sample was limited to major urban areas. Themargin of error per country ranges from +/- 3.0 to 4.9 per cent, 19 times out of 20.For more details, please visitwww.GlobeScan.com as well as the GlobeScan Insights blogathttp://globescaninsights.blogspot.com.

Backgrounder: Country-by-Country FindingsNORTH AMERICACanada

Climate change is the most talked about global issue in Canada. Thirty-two per cent of

Canadians said they discussed about it over the past month, significantly above the 20 per

cent global average and twice the proportion in the US. Extreme poverty is ranked the most

serious global problem and is rated as very serious by 72 per cent of Canadians, somewhat

above the global average (69%). Corruption is comparatively less of a concern and is ranked

the fourth most serious global problem with 54 per cent rating it as very serious, equal to the

rating of human-rights abuses in the world, but behind environmental problems (65%) and

armed conflicts (64%).


9/19

The United States

The state of the global economy is the most talked about global issue in the USA and was

discussed by 33 per cent of Americans over the past month, almost three times more than

the global average of 12 per cent. The state of the global economy is also ranked as the

most serious global problem (72%, up 7 points since 2009). This is well above the 50 per

cent global average and the second-highest ranking for this problem (behind only Mexico).

Corruption is the second most important global problem in the US, rated as very seriousby 68 per cent of Americans. This equals the global average, although only four per cent

said they had discussed the topic in the past month. Terrorism ranks third among global

problems, along with armed conflicts (both 67%) and has seen a 10-point increase since

2009.

EUROPE

France

The most talked about issue in France is the state of the global economy, discussed by 28

per cent of French respondents. Climate change and other environmental problems are the

second and third most discussed issues (26% and 25% respectivelysignificantly above

global averages). Extreme poverty is the most serious global problem according to French

respondents (77%, 8 points above the global average), above armed conflicts (72%) and

human-rights abuses (69%, up 10 points since 2009). Although they reported talking about

climate change and the environment quite frequently, those issues are less a concern to

French respondents than they were in 2009 (49%, down 11 points, and 59%, down 5 points,

respectively).

Germany

Environmental problems are the most talked about global issue in Germany (discussed

by 42% in the past month), while climate change specifically is also an important topic of

discussion for 20 per cent of Germans (the same as the global average). Environmental

problems are also considered the most serious global problem with over six in ten rating

them as very serious (62%, up 5 points since 2009). Climate change in particular became

less of a concern over the past year (48%, down 6 points). Extreme poverty is ranked

second and rated as very serious by 60 per cent of Germans (9 points below the global

average). Germans also exhibit notably less concern about corruption (44%) compared to

the rest of the world, as it is one of the four countries out of 26 where a majority does not

rate it as very serious.

ItalyUnemployment is the most talked about global issue in Italy, discussed by 18 per cent of

Italians in the past month. Corruption is also a frequent topic of discussion in Italy, with 14

per cent saying they talked about it. Although it is below the global average (21%), this is

the highest proportion among all industrialised countries, as is the percentage of Italians

rating corruption as very serious (72%). Extreme poverty is seen as the most serious global

problem in Italy, rated as very serious by 84 per cent of Italians (well above the 69% global

average). This is followed by armed conflicts (81%) and human-rights abuses (79%) both of

which are also greatly above global averages.

RussiaThe most talked about global issue in Russia is extreme poverty, discussed by 36 per cent


10/19

of Russians, more than terrorism (33%). Both these issues are more frequent topics of

discussion than they are globally (18% and 14%, respectively). While corruption is not talked

about very often by Russians (2%), it is seen as the most serious global problem (67%,

similar to the global average). Terrorism is ranked second (66%), having increased by 14

per cent since 2009. Environment problems come third, and are rated as very serious by 63

per cent of Russians. Concerns about climate change increased significantly over the past

year (46%, up 10 points) but remain lower than the global average (56%).

Spain

Climate change is the most talked about global issue in Spain: over one in five (22%) said

they discussed it in the past month, close to the global average (20%). Unemployment

is the second most frequently discussed topic, mentioned by 21 per cent of Spaniards.

Extreme poverty is considered the most serious global problem in Spain, with 81 per cent

rating it as very serious, well above the global average (69%). Human-rights abuses rank

second (73%). This is significantly above the global average (59%) although the perceived

seriousness of the problem has dropped 17 points since 2009. Concern about environmental

problems (62% very serious, down 16 points) and climate change (59%, down 18 points)

have both decreased dramatically since last year, and are now close to global averages

(64% and 56%, respectively).

United Kingdom

The UKs most discussed global issue is the state of the global economy, mentioned by 31

per cent of Britons. This is the highest proportion after that of the US, and well above the

global average (12%). The perceived seriousness of this problem also increased, by 11

points since 2009 (67% very serious, above the 50% global average). Climate change is the

second most discussed topic (26%, above the 20% global average), but concern about the

issue has decreased since 2009, and less than one in two now rates it as very serious (49%,

down 12 points). Extreme poverty is considered the most serious global problem (70%,

similar to the global average). Like Germany, the UK shows relatively little concern aboutcorruption (50%) compared to other countries surveyed.

Turkey

tied for the highest proportion worldwide with Pakistan). This is almost four times the global

average (14%). Unemployment follows, with 33 per cent of Turks saying they discussed

the issue in the past month. Terrorism is also the most serious global problem according to

Turkish respondents, and is rated as very serious by 73 per cent of them. Corruption ranks

second in perceived seriousness as a global problem (67%, similar to the global average).
