Norway has jumped from fourth place for the past two years to first place, surpassing Denmark, which has held the record for being the happiest country in the world for three times. The fifth annual report was released today by the United Nations Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN), according to Reuters.
Norway and Denmark are followed by Iceland, Switzerland, and Finland. In Southeast Asia, Vietnam ranks 94th, after Singapore (26th), Thailand (32nd), Malaysia (42nd), the Philippines (72nd), and Indonesia (81st). African countries such as the Central African Republic, Burundi, and Tanzania, along with two Middle Eastern countries, Syria and Yemen, are among the bottom 10 countries in the ranking of 155 countries.
