In its 2005 survey of perceptions about corruption, the Berlin-based watchdog group Transparency International ranked Venezuela 130th out of 159 countries, and it figured among a dozen countries where respondents asserted that graft had "greatly" increased. The lack of any effective checks and balances compounds the challenge facing the Chávez government. In previous years the judiciary was bipartisan, and opposition parties controlled the office of auditor general. No longer. And those parties' decision to boycott congressional elections last December gave Chávez complete control over the legislature. That has helped foster a permissive climate: though military officers have been accused of embezzlement or misuse of public funds totaling hundreds of millions of dollars in a half-dozen cases, none has been charged and some still hold government jobs.[11]
[edit] Corruption
ISN Security Watch says that, as long Venezuela's military leaders remain loyal to Chávez, they will "receive no oversight from Caracas", resulting in impunity and corruption. Gustavo Coronel, a former member of PDVSA's board of directors, claimed that social programs are "run by military officers who have little to no oversight".[1] Members of the Venezuelan Armed Forces are alleged to be involved in supplying arms to Colombia's FARC, [1] and U.S. anti-drug officials allege that corruption within the Chávez administration is converting Venezuela into a trafficking route for Colombian drugs.[2] Critics also allege widespread corruption in the police force.[3]
The Economist reports that "Mr Chávez has grasped all the powers of state into his own hands, and eliminated all independent oversight of his government. The opposition argues that the inevitable result of this is graft on an increased scale." Berlin-based Transparency International, in its annual survey Corruption Perceptions Index, ranked Venezuela as one of only a dozen countries where perceived corruption had "greatly increased" in 2005, resulting in a ranking of 130th out of the 150 countries surveyed,[4] [5] to become the nation perceived as the third most corrupt in Latin America, above Paraguay and Haiti. Critics claim that rampant corruption reaches the highest levels of Venezuelan airport and security officials, that billions of dollars have been siphoned away from social programs by corrupt officials, and that leaders of the military have limited oversight, creating an environment in which impunity and corruption develop.[4][1][3][2] Currently Venezuela ranks 138th out of 163 countries with a rating of 2.3.[6]
In Gallup Poll's Corruption Index, Venezuela ranks 31st out of 101 countries, where 68% of the population perceive corruption as widespread in the government and/or business. The index lists Venezuela as third least corrupt nation in Latin America.[7]
The World Economic Forum's Global Competitiveness Report ranks Venezuela 88th out of 125 countries surveyed.
