  S'pore civil servants ranked most efficient in Asia, according to survey

  SINGAPORE : A business survey on 12 Asian cities found that civil servants in Singapore are the most efficient.
  
  The survey, conducted by Hong Kong-based Political & Economic Risk Consultancy (PERC), also found that Singaporean bureaucrats are unhelpful when things go wrong.
  
  It is the third time Singapore took top spot in the survey, last conducted in 2007.
  
  Hong Kong came in second, followed by Thailand and India was last.
  
  Over 1,200 expatriates working in these 12 Asian cities took part in the survey.
