There is corruption. And there is corruption. What is that in Singapore?
Just what is corruption in Singapore?
•Is it succumbing to an uncontrollable greedy itch caused by the perceived lack of remuneration that one must scratch to line the pockets with more illicit money?
•Is it surrendering to an uncontrollable libido caused by excess of power that needs to be satisfied by unlawful sex?
•Is it accepting 'special' discount given to one and his familee members by luxury condo seller? [Link]
•Is it accepting an additional egg given by char kway teow hawker because one is a poleetician of regal position? Or
•Is it merely a case of "personal misconduct"?
It can be one, none, some or all of the above. As mentioned by DPM Teo Chee Hean in the ministerial salary debate, it may just be a "judgement call". But who makes the call? When to make the call and when to announce the call?
