Weird NGOs that straddle the divide, think tanks, white collar unions aka "professional associations" that somehow acquired regulatory powers; see medicine, law, engineering, architecture etc. Corruption exists in all sorts of places.
- notlukesky 7y agoYou framed it perfectly! There are so many non-private sector institutions out there that I refrained from calling them even quasi public sector. In fact the example you mention of "professional associations" that have acquired regulatory powers is great as most of them are rife and riddled with corruption and act to either the benefit of their management or members and against the public interest.
- Proven 7y agoThose are Quangos and have that name because they are government-controlled; useful idiots who work on an agenda in return for government handouts. That is also public sector.
