Corruption
In any countries, nations around the world, big or small, rich or poor there are always have thing in common and that is not very good to hear, that is corruption in present everywhere. Where there power, there is corruption. But first let get to know what is corruption?
One day, a men moving with his car on street, suddenly officer call him back for something that his did not noticed, the officer say hello and greet the man with serious face, officer started to talk about the man mistake it might be go on wrong lane or going too fast. Then officer required a man to show his license, the man smile hand it to showed to the officer, then officer took a look at it open to page that the man already put some money in it to officer. Officer gave back to the man and now the man free to go without any remainder or even a strong penalty to keep the man's license.
My short stories is example for corruption, It might be true but might be not, you might find this in someday. So, we can briefly understand that corruption is dishonest or fraudulent conduct by those in power, typically involving money. Corruption is obviously become danger around the world, it low down dishonest of people and we use honest of someone to judge them good or bad. There are many types of corruption such as petty, grand, systemic, defined based on situations, corruption, in general is the use of money illegally to obtain something, whether in large or small scale.
So the question is what are the causes of corruption?
Nobody know, including me. Why are people so easy to turn greedy? It's their nature, There is always something wrong with us. No money or power can satisfy our desire, as we get once, we want more and more, no scale can measure it. People want to satisfy their greedy and don't might to get their hand in to "mud". It go against rules, to those people they are supporting immoral governments. The fact might threaten people is that corruption occurs everywhere, but moreover it is getting higher every year. In every nation and countries the corruption always occur, it slow down the economic of countries, crippling them and pulling the countries down to the ground.
So what are it effects to people? It affect badly on both economic and social.
On economic, corruption will lead to depletion to national wealth by conversing public wealth into personal wealth. It will raise the cost of products.
On social, due to dishonest, corruption discourages people to work together for common good. It also lead to income inequality, expands the gap between rich and poor.
Corruption is one of the most hardest problems to go against, because the criminal always have strategies to trick on government and I have noticed that people have higher social status are easy to get into corruption, they are smart and hard to believe that they are doing that, not because they are working in government so that people don't believe that they are clean but because there are always somebody behind them help them to do that. But it not mean that it is impossible to stop:
- Change the government system: reduce monopoly and increase competition. The more centralized power is the more likely corruption will happen.
- Report corruption: there should be some detective available to watch out for corruption. It little bit to hard and not good for people but we need to be strict on that. To stop it we need to started do it on now.
