Why so ?

In my country India corruption is a major problem. Here more over politicians and officers are corrupt. Here the leader who spend long period in prison are now part of commettie which are responsible for making policies. Here it is hard to punish a corrupt person who have good links in government.

Corruption, especially with politicians and public officials is something that happens all over the world. Here, I think that a lot of the corruption is a result of the lobbyists that are found in the capital of the country and also in the state capitals as well. It is sad to hear about this kind of corruption, but I believe that it is something that will never stop in this world as long as there are politicians and elected public officials.

I guess corruption goes on in every part of the world. It doesn't matter if you are someone holding an important position in the government sector, private sector of non-profit organisations. The point is if one does not have any value on preserving virtue then it is very easy for them to get involved into corruption. The only thing with senior officials is that they are public figures so any wrong that they do will normally be highlighted compared to wrongdoings done by ordinary people. Just my two cents. Have a nice day!

I think it's going on all over and we can't escape it....where and when there is money involved people get greedy and will do anything to get more...so sad. the best things in life can't be bought....and they end up miserable or in prision because of the persuit.

Well, I do not know exactly what happens in China, it much less outside the territory. But also to answer your thread, because in my country (Italy), things are not much better! Politicians stealing, corruption, wiretaps, in short, bad life, bad governance happens even in my country. Every day, reading the newspaper are now current topics on the front page! Yes, it is true that the whole world is a village. Corruption and so on, are really from every part!
