Speech By Thomas Friedman Of The New York Times ....

sreenivasan
"When we were young kids growing up in America, we were told to eat our
vegetables at dinner and not leave them. Mothers said, 'think of the
starving children in India and finish the dinner.' And now I tell my
children: 'Finish your maths homework. Think of the children in India who
would make you starve, if you don't.'"

you cannot do anything about tht since the structure and poliltics ppl... have to change then only we cna think about it as corporate we can try to do your work better with out any coruption and if u r employee then you may be forced from top also to give money to some other person.. but if u donot do that then it will be a pro for u/me.. so it depends on situation.. ok

The solution as suggested... by



Former chief secretary A. Ravindra: There are two worlds here in Bangalore — the world of technology and the world of misery. Corruption levels seem to be high especially at the service level. So, greater transparency, in the operations of municipal bodies for instance, will help. Also, people must know that they should not bribe. Besides, within government, if the levels of hierarchy (to get anything done) come down, so will corruption. And, once, the quality of services improves — if we get better water and power supply, for example — the tendency to pay more for good quality services will also reduce. Initiatives like the selfassessment of property tax, which I introduced, will also help. So, yes, corruption will come down, provided we put these measures in place.



Former chief minister M. Veerappa Moily: E-governance can check in bringing down corruption. This ensures transparency. As chairman of the Revenue Reforms Commission, I had emphasised on this aspect. For example, e-governance or computerisation can check the outgo of liquor right from the point of its manufacture at the distilleries. Just like fiscal accountability, I recommend political responsibility Act. Besides, politicians earlier never used to make use of bureaucrats to collect money, but it is rampant now



Some of the tainted politicians and beureocrates also commented on the same.... and they are the ones who are going to formulate and implement the strategy for fighting the corruption [blick chances...]





So guys and gals, close your eyes [like ostrichs do] and let whatever is happening to happen.....



or else fight.... it
