The reforms initiated by the government in the four years after the Rose Revolution have resulted in varying levels of success and elicited different kinds of evaluations. Opinions defer on the depth and sustainability of the government’s frequently rash anti-corruption measures. In terms of overall corruption, however, there is a general consensus among public officials and civil society organizations alike, that there is much less petty corruption than there was during Shevardnadze’s time. In 2007 Georgia’s Corruption Perception Index score, for the first time, exceeded 3 points and reached 3.4,what means that Georgia has moved out of the group of countries considered to have a rampant corruption. Last year this score was 2.8, thus, the improvement in 2007 results is significant. Since the Rose Revolution, Georgia’s CPI score has steadily risen, starting at 1.8 in 2003.
