It's selfish, but the funny thing is it probably isn't corruption by western definitions!
If you own a business and extract as much profits as possible --- not corruption. If you own a business and install your kid as middle manager to extract more money to your family -- corruption!
There's a quip that corruption is a term to penalize regions with larger extended families and kinship groups --- because the most galling corruption to the west is helping that 3rd cousin or clan member or whatever. But that is a real cop-out when in the west few know their 3rd cousin or are in a clan --- easy avoid nepotism when you don't know of the person!
