Is this about paying fees to do business in some 3rd world dump where no-one gets paid so they have to rely on what amounts to a service charge to avoid starvation?
There was a good case not too long ago where Australia donated some money for disaster relief where everyone built houses right on the shorefront in a red hot tsunami zone – and you'll never guess what happened?
Anyway, it was a requirement that ALL the money be spent on relief and NONE used for bribes. The months went by and the money was just sitting there, unused. WHY? No official will act unless bribed. That's how they get paid.
