Corruption

As I personal see lot of deal in Malaysia, corruption has spread wide and deep into every people. This is a social and economy problem which will brings unstable and unhealthy to both of the issue.

Corruption means stop developing and improving, worst will reverse the progression. It encouraging mistake. It widens the gap between rich and poor. Rich become richer while poor become poorer.

At first, government gives out project for tender. Which proposal is the best, lowest cost, highest performance, suppose government award the project to the proposal. This is just to make sure everything is lowest cost and highest quality among the choices.

When corruption come into the picture, the project award to who propose higher under table money amount. There is no cost, quality, and performance taking into consideration. The result will be collapse building in construction sector, bad dept in financial sector, low quality and affected sale in long run in manufacturing sector, unhygienic food from food and beverage sector, doctor who have to don’t know how to diagnose and cure, a city development with square, triangle, round and other shapes and so on.

When higher authority starts corruption, their subordinate will follow. This will spread to every society level, diffuse to everyone mindset, and enter to deal. Those who get rich with this method will keep this method to conquering other deal. Rich will get richer; it didn’t encourage quality and ideas. Therefore, everyone start to stop improving and learning, they start migrate out since no opportunity, or start to build relationship with money. Soon, whole country left corruption people stay in the position and get wealth.

Recently Malaysia political tsunami, have prove that most of the citizen is out of the comfort zone. They feel not secure for their securities, their rights, and their income. All this begins from the corruption. Anyway, most of the wealth is in the person who apply corruption all the way, they will sure do lot of things just to retain their position, protect their money, stand on their pride. There are too many and deep. Everyone scare get caught and punish. They want their power and authority to safe themselves. This may rise lot of bleeding fight, money transfer out of country, scarify lot of life, running out of resources. A country or company ruin by a corruption.

Healthy economy means compete each other for deal by quality and performance. Let the supply and demand move freely. Everyone have the same right and opportunity.
