> You don't get bribes in the office, in a clear, visible way. Actually, you do. Numerous undercover TV news stories like on 60 Minutes, 20/20, and Dateline, as well as police sting operations, show exactly that. Another huge counterexample to the "you don't get bribes in the office, in a clear, visible way" is the case of Peruvian President's right-hand man, Vladimiro Montesinos, who secretly video-taped himself paying hundreds of MILLIONS in bribes in his office: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Vladimiro_Montesinos&section=11#The_Vladi-videos http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Vladimiro_Montesin... We are indeed talking about about briefcases full of cash, containing hundreds of thousands of dollars each, and counting them out on a table in his office. Imagine what he would have paid for a product like Deniable Video, https://deniablevideo.com/ https://deniablevideo.com/ so that he could keep his transactions secret. This is opposite to the Indian official's objective, who wants openness, but my point is that big bribes--at least sometimes--work exactly the way that you say they don't.
