English has become a working language across the globe. The colonial power-grabbing policy of the British contributed heavily to making English a common language for a major part of the world.
Corruption is a simple word in English vocabulary. The meaning of corruption is not difficult to understand. But, the impact of corruption on human society is deep.
We say so quickly that the root cause of corruption is greed. As if you eliminate desires and greed, you will eradicate corruption from the globe. It is not that easy.
The challenge of corruption is deep-rooted in human society.
Corruption has spread in every stratum of human life.
Corruption is evident almost everywhere, including inside a family of many people. Even in a nuclear family, there are chances of corrupted concepts of relationships!
In a family, it is the responsibility of the family members to maintain corruption-free relationships among themselves.
In society, the responsibility extends to all the stakeholders.
It includes the political and social leaders, the judiciary system, citizens as voters, teachers, students, doctors, and people of all professionals.
The important question is to think and ask questions.
We must ask ourselves the question of whether we are extending our duties and taking full responsibility for every action we make.
As a voter, do we cast our cote on deserving candidates?
As news media, do we publish and propagate the truth?
As administrators of different governmental positions, do we take responsibility for the failures and undertake corrective measures?
As members of the judiciary system, do we give justice based on truth?
As entertainers and media celebrities, do we try to convey messages on ethics?
Unfortunately, most of us didn't play our respective roles with ethics and integrity, and as a result, corruption overwhelms the whole globe.
We, all humans, contribute to the overall corruption of society.
Nobody can escape their roles and remain aloof from the entire social system.
Corruption is like a bonfire.
Corruption increases and multiplies by itself.
To eradicate corruption, every member of society has to play their role with a deep sense of ethics and integrity.
One simple act of ethics by a few responsible citizens may inspire many.
But, finally, it all depends on the citizens to raise their voices along with imposing ethics and integrity on themselves.
Imposing ethics and integrity begin at every home.
Are you doing enough to impose ethics and integrity in your daily lifestyle?

Accounting and punishment are essential in the eradication of corruption.
I would think some would think corruption is only caused by the people doing it. I like your views that everyone has a piece in it to control and prevent it from happening. Even a little bad doing can lead to a growing bonfire of corruption.
Yes, we all contribute to the overall corruption of the globe. Thanks for your time and support.
The people behind the word corruption here our country is good people.. Because they didn't even go to prison even though it is obvious that they are corrupt.. And it is very sad because these people are the ones leading our country..
The good people of the world must unite.
Corruption is like a bonfire and spread so rapidly. Being a citizen everyone has their own duty and responsiblty to stand against the corruption, say no to corruption.
Fear is a reason citizens are tolerant of corruption.
That is correct and I I agree to you 😊
Corruption is indeed like a bonfire. It must be stopped at the domestic level of our homes.
Ethics and integrity are two things that everybody must adopt in life.
Corruption exists because some take advantage of it and the rest tolerates that situation.
You have very clearly spotted the main reason behind growing corruption worldwide.
Unfortunately I can see here around all that...
Even a young child these days doesn't see corruption as a crime. That is to tell you how corruption has eaten deep into the society.
Yes, corruption has now been regularized as a lifestyle.
If I easily conclude an answer base on what I see, the people are blamed for corruption, they sell their votes for a certain politician which they don't care if that politician has good reputation or not as long as they rcv a reasonable amount for their vote, people are poor, they dont have choice but to sell their vote to compensate their needs for another week of survival
But if we dig deeply, the politician are the ones to be blamed because of the corruption, people cant escape to the trap of being poor, poor became poorer and rich became richer.
The common mass has the superpower if they utilize their voting power fearlessly without being trapped by desires and greed. Politicians are powerful because of the fear of most citizens and the greed of a part of the common mass.
I just remember, ourpolitician that we admire run for the highest rank in our municipality which is mayor, we know what he can do, we know he is a good man, but he run without money, he never buys vote for everyone, we still vote him because we believe in him.
The result he never win because the other parties bought some votes for 30dollars per person, so that politician buying votes won.
Now if we think deeply. How would that certain politician get back all the money he spend on buying all the votes? Corruption
That is how the citizens as a voter are cheating themselves in third-world countries! Many of these foolish voters are our acquaintances, friends, family members, or relatives.
we know who they are and we cant blame them :( blamed those corrupt people using the money of the people to their own interest
It is a tricky situation. Either we convince our acquaintances by having friendly dialogues or taking some action so that they stop accepting bribes.
Everyone is responsible for this corruption because at an early stage we do corruption at a low-level everything we are not doing corruption but with time we start doing corruption at a high level and if we want to stop it then as a parent we need to give education.
Education may help to assess what is good and what is evil.
Because they want all the things that they want, and steal all the things as well as the powers thats one thing can get to corrupt
Common mass is a part of corruption.
Peoples involved or part in corruption is hipocrate and like a termite who destroy the good relationship between people and society. it must be stopped and raise our voices to mold a new modern country with humble leaders to have peace and harmony.
Leaders are NEVER humble but pretend as humble. We need more good humans than traditionally educated citizens. A few generations may have to fight for justice and educate the new generations to continue the process.
I have been asked why corruption exists - particularly when it seems like everyone wants good things for their country. I'm guessing that some of these questions come from a feeling of helplessness. But even though our political leaders don't seem to care much about it, corruption does exist and it's often directly linked to poverty.
So far, the majority of research into corruption has focused on finding out who is corrupt. This is important because understanding who is responsible can help us tackle corruption.
When it comes to tackling corruption, it's not enough to focus on identifying who is corrupt. What matters is whether they are held accountable for their actions.
