Corruption in the Philippines


Image result for corruption



What is corruption? Corruption is a dishonest or fraudulent conduct by those in power, typically involving bribery.Political corruption occurs when an office-holder or other governmental employee acts in an official capacity for personal gain. 

Corruption is the one of problem here in the Philippines. When you go to the national government, there are good professional bureaucrats, but at the same time you find corrupt bureaucrats and employees. 

Corruption is simply a symptom showing that things somewhere are going in the wrong direction, and one of the consequences of this is corruption.All successful corruption efforts ultimately change how individuals behave around rules and laws and it is critical to hold on to that core and simple truth. 

There's a lot of affected people because of corruption. Corruption can affect the progress, this is critical because all the budgets will be shared by those who wrote it. So Education, Hospitals, Roads, Airports and all critical infrastructure are neglected in the process.  And if you are  applying  for a job and happens to be the most qualified but the job went to someone else. This is despite their website claiming to employ qualified candidates irrespective of Gender, Religion, Race and so on. You end up with educated idiots in high places. 

We Filipino can fight with corrupt people or person. We can protest, it is the one powerful tool for anti-corruption. In election, we can ask a pledge against corruption or agree to take specific steps to stop corruption. 

Don't let other people do anything that can affect us. There are many ways to stop them.
