Corruption
is a key issue in governance in the Philippines, where its costs
already run into the billions. It is as familiar to Filipinos as
the policeman on the street who allows vehicles to park where they
shouldn’t in exchange for a daily fee, or the government clerk
who’ll put the papers of a bribe-giver on top of those for
the signature of the next official.
The
more complex deals involving millions or even billions, Filipinos
only get to hear about when the media discovers and exposes them.
But in the last decade or so corruption in government has become
of interest to such foreign lending institutions as the World Bank
and other groups like Transparency International that Filipinos
now get a yearly assessment of the state of corruption in their
country.
