Update on Democracy Ranking

In February I posted the rankings of Taiwan published by Worldaudit.org. In March, they had an update of their rankings of countries in the world. Here are the new result about Taiwan:

Democracy Index: 42 (was 39 in January)

Press Freedom: 38 (no change)

Corruption: 31 (no change).

The organization now added another index called Index of Economic Freedom. I just select a few countries for comparison:

No. 1 Hong Kong
No. 2 Singapore
No. 7 UK
No. 12 USA
No. 27 Taiwan
No. 39 Japan
No. 45 S. Korea
No. 112 China
No. 155 N. Korea
