a question..
Is there a national sense in individuals in India that if it was communicated to them that its their family-cultural duty to empower business without corruption that one would make progress in this?
The obstacle seems to be cultural dynamics, Or am I miss-understanding the situation?
- nsomaru 15y agoAn attempt at an answer :) Corruption here is part of life. It is understood that things will not get done properly unless you pay someone. This includes most administrative tasks as well as the justice system. The police routinely stop drivers and hold their licenses until a bribe is paid.

To give you an idea, a primary school teacher in an average school makes about $200-$300/month. With this type of pay scale for most middle class professions, there will be corruption. A traffic cop can make 3 months salary by pulling over a few guys speeding in their BMW's and taking a bribe from them, so why won't he, especially since the current system supports it. Also, our judicial system in India is broken; it takes years(5-10) for any court case to get resolved, which is another problem since the corrupt don't get prosecuted in a timely manner.
