Description
This book contains key examples of corruption in the Philippines, ranging from the use of pork barrel funds to the new opportunities for deal-making brought about by privatization and economic liberalization. It examines the structures and procedures that encourage graft and delves into the culture of corruption and patronage that seeps into practically every agency of governance. It also looks at what communities and NGOs have done to fight corruption and bring about more accountability and transparency in government institutions and processes. - from Amzon
