ASP.NET: display count of Viewbag list items : Hi is there a way to display a viewbag list  and show count

Like: <br/>
United Arab Emirates(8)<br/>
Angola(4)<br/>
Argentina(7)<br/>
Austria(0)<br/>
Belgium(11)<br/>

Currently i have a Checkboxlist(costume helper) in view

     @Html.CheckBoxList("checkedLocation", (ViewBag.country_list as MultiSelectList))

Only countries are displayed. Wud be great if the same list has counts
Basically i have a company table with country fields. Just wanna show that in Brazil, ten companies are available like <b>Brazil(10)</b>
