SINGAPORE :DO u have a wish to know a place where the life is ideal,where everything comes in prosperous when the whole world is under the shadow of terrorism,unemployment and financial crises. Is such region possible?Nordic countries dominate the annual ranking of the world's healthiest and wealthiest nations . The Legatum Institute advocacy and advisory organization,The 2009 Legatum Prosperity Index, published their report on last tuesday , ranked 104 countries which are home to 90 percent of the world's population. Report has shown that nordic countries are the most prosperous natons among the world where people are living life with economic stregth,good health and with the rights of freedom of expression.Among nordic countries,Finland is the number one in this prospectus,while swizerland,sweedan,Denmark and Norway are number two,three.four and five respectively., published on Tuesday and compiled by, an independent policy,. The top 10 were all also Western nations, with Australia (6th place) and Canada (7th place) both beating the United States, ranked 9th. Britain came in at number 12. In Asia, Japan was the region's highest ranked country at number 16, followed by Hong Kong (18th place) and Singapore (23rd place) and Taiwan (24th place). The lower rankings for Asian nations were largely due to their weak scores for democracy and personal freedoms. Many Asian nations have good economic fundamentals, but the Index tells us that true prosperity requires more than just money. Countries which have low levels of economic stability, such as Cambodia, finish even further down in the overall rankings." Cambodia came in the 93rd slot while China, with its tight political controls, came in 75th despite booming economic growth. And the world's least prosperous country, it is Zimbabwe, with Sudan and Yemen close runners-up. More details can be found on http://www.prosperity.com.
