Denmark – An Indonesian citizen, Jerhemy Owen shared his experience while in Denmark, a country with the lowest level of corruption in the world, according to the Corruption Preceptions Index (CPI).
"So, this is the condition of the country with the lowest level of corruption in the world," said Owen, through his Instagram account @Jerhemynemo, as quoted on Thursday.
As information, Denmark is the most anti-corruption country in the world with a perception score of 90. Meanwhile, Singapore is the only country from Asia on the list of 2022 CPI.
"This is one of the countries with the best public facilities in the world," Owen added.
Owen further stated that all educational needs of Danish citizens, from the lower level to university, are fully covered by the state. Owen learned about this from the stories of locals he met.
"Out of curiosity, I talked to a local there, and his story made me surprised. So, he told me that as a Danish citizen, education there is free, from kindergarten, elementary school, junior high school, high school to university," Owen explained.
Not only education, the Danish government is also said to provide health facilities for its citizens for free.
"Don't forget that health facilities ranging from doctors, hospitals to the cost of medicines are borne by the government," he stated.
In addition, Owen also assessed that during his time in the country, he considered Denmark as a country with the best public transportation he had ever seen.
"This is one of the countries with the best public facilities I have ever seen. I judge a developed country or not not from the luxurious vehicles of its citizens, but its public transportation," Owen remarked.
Finally, Owen mentioned that as the country with the highest average salary in Europe, workers in Denmark have a great salary.
"Just imagine, the salary of a cleaning man here is approximately IDR 900 million per year, how about the others?" he said.
"And to be honest, my friends, I have never seen a poor person in Denmark. All this can happen because there is no corruption. This is how it would be if there was no corruption in Indonesia," he concluded.
