Pinheiro, Ana Raquel Da Costa. "Does corruption drive the stock market?" Master's thesis, NSBE - UNL, 2010. http://hdl.handle.net/10362/9856.
Повний текст джерелаWe estimate the effect of corruption on the stock markets returns using as controls gross domestic product growth, inflation, unemployment growth, monetary base growth and institutional variables. The results show that in more developed countries corruption is inversely related to the stock market returns. In developing economies, on the other hand, there is empirical evidence supporting the second-best theory: higher levels of corruption impact positively on the stock markets returns. Furthermore, while per capita gross national income cannot account for corruption coefficients on the stock market, inflation seems to be positively related to the latter.

Повний текст джерелаThis study uses two micro-level datasets to perform an empirical assessment of the role of education on the decision to be corrupt. Bribe payments are used as proxy for corruption. The results show that increasing the level of schooling increases the propensity to bribe. A model of costs and benefits is assumed and regressions are ran to evaluate the effect of education on an intrinsic and an extrinsic cost of being corrupt, measured by justifiability of corruption and perception of corruption, respectively. The estimates show education increases one’s intrinsic cost (decreases justifiability) and decreases one’s extrinsic cost (increases perception).
Maciel, Gustavo Gouvêa. "Legal corruption: a way to explain citizens' perceptions about the relevance of corruption." Master's thesis, Universidade de Aveiro, 2016. http://hdl.handle.net/10773/17109.
Повний текст джерелаCorruption, a word with an illicit identity that represents a major public problem for citizens. In fact, this apparent unquestionable common sense statement does permeate recent political discourses or even cutting-edge academic research. But, indeed, what may be wrong with this well-accepted assertion? And why is it characterized as a possible mistaken assumption? Both questions can be summed up in one direct answer: corruption is much more than illegalities, it is also a ‘beyond the law’ concern with social implications. Little attention has been given to evaluate corruption as an exclusive combination of pure licit behaviors. This alternative approach has always assumed a marginal or even complementary status in the comprehension of the phenomenon. This thesis affirms that illegalities offer a relevant, but incomplete contribution. For this reason, they must be set aside in order to unveil how legalities affect citizens’ perceptions about corruption as a whole. Undoubtedly, it is easier to establish objective parameters to limit the measurement of corruption to a mere evaluation of prosecutions, condemnations, or even perceptions about the commitment of illegal actions. However, corrupt behaviors proved to be resilient essentially because of their capacity to resemble both socially and normatively accepted as necessary for the ordinary democratic political operation. A renewed methodological approach is here proposed to demonstrate why legality in corruption matters. Thus, legal corruption must be put in evidence in order to verify how corruption appears as a pervasive, adaptable, dangerous for politics, and widely accepted major problem, especially in the public sector. Such methodology does not aim to incorporate ‘beyond the law’ elements in a broader corruption measurement, as usually attempted. On the contrary, it will isolate what is considered purely lawful, although corrupt, to deeply explore its specific effects on citizens’ perceptions. In essence, this thesis aims to show that legalities are more important to define the relevance of corruption than illicitness. It also wants to identify what should count as sufficient to determine such legal corruption. In this context, socioeconomic factors proved to be fundamental, especially ‘Internet Usage’ and ‘Wastefulness of Government Spending’. Finally, it is possible to conclude that legality in corruption can be unveiled by simply asking citizens if they consider corruption a relevant problem in the public sector of advanced democracies or quasi-democracies, instead of asking directly about specific dimensions of corruption. It is also possible to perceive if corruption is a relevant public problem without directly asking citizens about corruption, but about general socially accepted misconducts with regards to legal corruption, such as the necessity of establishing personal contacts to get things done; the capacity of distorting rules, norms, and statutes in order to make private interests resemble licit and politically acceptable; and the governments’ ability to do what tradespeople want without hindering citizens’ wills.
Corrupção, uma palavra com identidade ilícita que representa um grande problema para os cidadãos. De facto, esta afirmação – aparentemente inquestionável e baseada no senso comum – permeia discursos políticos recentes ou até mesmo pesquisas académicas de ponta. Mas, em verdade, o que pode estar errado com esta afirmação tradicionalmente aceite? E por que caracterizá-la como equivocada? Ambas as questões podem ser resumidas em uma única e objetiva resposta: corrupção não se refere tão somente a ilegalidades, mas também a interesses ‘para além da lei’ que possuem implicações sociais. Pouca atenção tem sido dada à avaliação da corrupção sob uma perspetiva meramente lícita. Esta abordagem alternativa sempre foi marginal ou mesmo complementar. Esta tese afirma que a caracterização da corrupção como algo ilegal oferece uma contribuição relevante, mas incompleta para o entendimento do fenómeno. Por esta razão, deve ser posta de lado, a fim de se desvendar como apenas as legalidades afetam as perceções dos cidadãos sobre a corrupção como um todo. Sem dúvida, é mais fácil estabelecer parâmetros objetivos para limitar a medição da corrupção a uma mera avaliação de processos, de execuções penais ou mesmo de perceções sobre o cometimento de atos ilegais. Entretanto, o comportamento corrupto se mostra resiliente essencialmente devido à sua capacidade de parecer socialmente e normativamente aceite como necessário ao normal funcionamento político democrático. Uma renovada abordagem metodológica é aqui proposta para demonstrar a importância do papel da legalidade perante a corrupção. Logo, a corrupção legal deve ser colocada em evidência para que seja possível verificar como a corrupção (em sentido mais amplo) aparece como um invasivo, adaptável, politicamente perigoso e amplamente aceite problema, especialmente no setor público. Tal metodologia não pretende incorporar elementos ‘para além da lei’ em uma mensuração mais alargada da corrupção, como é usualmente feito. Pelo contrário, ela isolará o que é considerado puramente legal, embora corrupto, para explorar mais detalhadamente seus efeitos específicos sobre as perceções dos cidadãos. Em essência, esta tese pretende mostrar que as legalidades são mais importantes para definir a relevância da corrupção do que as ilegalidades. Também busca identificar o que deve contar como suficiente para determinar essa tal corrupção legal. Neste contexto, fatores socioeconómicos provaram ser fundamentais, especialmente aqueles relacionados ao ‘Uso da Internet’ e ao ‘Desperdício dos Gastos do Governo".

In today’s business world everything seems to be somehow linked to globalization, what leads to trading without barriers, developing productions schemes that involves more than one country and one location, capital flows and technology transfer. Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) has been used in the past decades as one of the main sources of capital to sustain cash flow needs for the globalization process. So how do investors decide where to invest? A number of risk factors are analyzed as part of this decision process, and among them is the level of corruption of the country of inflows destination. This exploratory study , based on quantitative and qualitative analysis, reviewed the relation between FDI inflows and the level of corruption in the host country to develop hypotheses and propositions that lead to complementary research to conclude on how and to which extend the level of corruption of the host country impacts its FDI inflows. In order to narrow down the universe explored, which would be to vast if all possible combinations of home and host countries were to be incorporated, the population used to perform analysis was based on Brazil’s and China’s data being the host country and its main FDI investors as home countries of the FDI inflows. Historical series of the indicators used in the quantitative analysis were obtained for the period from 2005 to 2012.

Повний текст джерелаIn the last two decades, openness of public budgeting processes garnered the attention of governments, non-governmental organizations and donors, evidenced by a proliferation of budget transparency and accountability initiatives worldwide (McGee & Gaventa, 2010; De Renzio & Angemi, 2012). Designed to facilitate productive citizen-government interaction around resource allocation, open budgeting initiatives should contribute to strengthening public trust in political institutions (Sayogo & Harrison, 2012; Hakhverdian & Mayne, 2012). Using corruption perceptions as a measure of public trust, this study analyzes the relationship between the openness evident in the budgeting processes of 70 countries and corruption perceptions over a five-year period, 2006-2010. As a traditionally obtuse, closed process, public resource allocation and expenditure is an arena particularly ripe for "wealth-maximizing" civil servants to engage in corruption (Spada, 2009; Rose-Ackerman, 2004). Open budgeting processes that improve citizen awareness of, and provide opportunities for their participation in, government budgeting processes should theoretically improve, not only the incidence of actual corruption, but also citizens' perceptions regarding the level of corruption within their government (Anderson & Tverdova, 2003; Martinez-Moyano et al., 2007). It was hypothesized that citizens in countries with greater transparency, consultation and public monitoring in their budgeting processes perceive lower levels of corruption and higher levels of government anti-corruption effectiveness. OLS and fixed effects regressions found suggestive evidence to support the contention that consultation and openness were positively associated with perceived anti-corruption effectiveness. In contrast, once confounding factors were controlled for, there was no clear evidence to support the contention that openness, either as a composite or its three sub-components, was negatively correlated with perceived government corruption. Furthermore, the results imply that the cumulative effect of the components of transparency, consultation and monitoring may have a stronger impact on perceptions of anti-corruption effectiveness and government corruption than they do as stand-alone activities.

Повний текст джерелаENGLISH ABSTRACT: The central research question of this study concerns how corruption as a political risk factor should be measured in order to provide an accurate assessment of the risk factor within the oil and gas industry. The aim is to answer this question with the aid and support of two sub-questions that have been identified as crucial in pursuing this research. The first sub-question conceptualizes corruption as a political risk factor specifically within the oil and gas industry. The second sub-question addresses the oil and gas industry-specific indicators of corruption as a political risk factor. The research embarks upon seven industry-specific indicators, by isolating the relevant national political structural and institutional framework, which has proved essential in identifying the level of corruption as a risk to the oil and gas investor. The indicators are regarded as the most salient variables that can measure the level of corruption as a political risk in a realistic and practical approach. The indicators are subsequently systemised into a matrix that is constructed with the aim of using it as a general measurement tool for oil and gas investors. The study argues that this measurement tool can be of use to the oil and gas investor as it contributes to businesses recognition and anticipation of corruption. The matrix is furthermore applied to the oil and gas industry in Nigeria, in an attempt to test the matrix, and in order to establish how and to what level corruption constitutes as a political risk factor for the oil and gas industry in this country. The result of the indicators demonstrates that the political risk of encountering corruption for the oil and gas investor in Nigeria is of a high level. This study provides a valid basis of constituting how corruption manifests as a risk for the oil and gas investor. Furthermore, the applicability of the matrix provides a practical utility and constructive assessment. This thesis provides a firm foundation for future research in this field.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die sentrale navorsingsvraag van hierdie studie handel oor hoe korrupsie as 'n politieke risiko faktor gemeet moet word om 'n akkurate bepaling van die risiko faktor binne die oilie- en gas industrie te maak. Die doel is om hierdie vraag te beantwoord met die hulp van twee sub-navorsingsvrae wat geïdentifiseer is essensieël on hierdie navorsing te voltooi. Die eerste sub-navorsingvraag konseptualiseer korrupsie as 'n politieke risiko faktor, spesifiek binne die olie en gas industrie. Die tweede sub-navorsingsvraag handel oor die industrie-spesifieke indikatore van korrupsie as 'n politieke risiko faktor. Die navorsing is gevestig op sewe industrie-spesifieke indikatore, wat geïsoleer word vanaf relevante nasionale politieke strukture en institusionele raamwerke, wat essensieël is in die identifikasie van die vlak van korrupsie as 'n risiko vir die olie en gas belegger. Die indikatore word beskou as die mees prominente veranderlikes wat die vlak van korrupsie as n politieke risiko kan meet, as 'n realistiese en praktiese benadering. Die indikatore word gevolglik geplaas binne 'n raamwerk wat gebou is met die doel om dit te bebruik as 'n algemene maatstaf vir die belegger in die olie-en gas industrie. Hierdie studie argumenteer dat die maatstaf gebruik kan word in die olie-en gas industrie, siende dat dit bydrae tot besighede se erkenning en antisipasie van korrupsie. Die maatstaf word verder toegepas op die geval van die olie-en gas industrie in Nigerië, met die doel om dit te toets en ook om vas te stel tot watter vlak korrupsie as 'n politieke risiko faktor vir die olie-en gas industrie teenwoordig is in hierdie land. Die resultaat van die indikatore dui daarop dat daar 'n hoë vlak van politieke risiko vir die olie-en gas industrie in Nigerië bestaan. Die studie verskaf 'n geldige basis om vas te stel hoe korrupsie in die olie-en gas industrie manifesteer. Verder, die toepaslikheid van die maatstaf verskaf praktiese bruikbaarheid en konstruktiewe meeting. Die tesis verskaf 'n stewige basis vir toekomstige navrsing in die veld.

Повний текст джерелаIf we contemplate the playwright's rich production, we realise to what extent Egypt plays a prominent part in his work and life. It is the crowning achievement of his literary work which highlights all the aspects of this country, social, historical, cultural and political However, in this study, we will try to limit our subject of The image of Egypt in T.al-Hakim's work to two particular eras, the revolutions of 1919 and 1952. His writings clearly relate those major events. The way he thinks, writes, criticizes and analyses before and after the 1919 revolution is no longer the same after the 1952 revolution. He started being a dreamy idealistic writer, and turned into another one, more realistic and committed in his literary work. Our global problematics will hinge on the following issues: what representation of Egypt does Tawfiq al-Hakim's work give? Can we regard his return to ancient myths as a continuity between modern Egypt and ancient Egypt? In a first part, we deal with the two revolutions which have had repercussions on his writings and political vision. The second part will tackle the society of his novel, in which he describes a country seen through a native Egyptian, and the strong ties which link the Egyptian people to their nation. The third part will focus on women and on the fallah, which greatly inspired the writer. The fourth part will be dedicated to the Pharaonic Egypt. We will see how far he has been influenced by ancient Egypt to descibe the modern one. We have relied on a few works of different writers so as to find an authentic link between what he writes and thinks reality and imagination in his works. We will analyse the way he sees, observes and criticizes his own country

Corruption is an important social and ethical issue in recent years. It not only hinders the economic growth of a country, but also could let a country drop into the extinct situation when it grows to the worst. Besides, the importance of sovereign ratings would never be ignored. While the sovereign rating varying, the borrowing ability of a country might also vary. This study utilized samples of the members of Union Nations over 1995-2012 to explore the influence of country leader turnover on corruption and sovereign rating. Finally, this study would categorize the country leaders to explore the influence of different types on corruption and sovereign ratings. This study defined that the leaders who owns the real authorities as the real country leader, otherwise, as the nominal country leader. The empirical results showed that the turnover of the nominal country leader would enhance the degree of corruption after three years. In addition, after taking the country characteristics into consideration, this study found that the nominal country leader turnover would enhance the degree of corruption after two years in the semi-presidentialism system group, and sovereign ratings would be reduced after one year. But, in the real country leader turnover group, it would enhance the degree of corruption after three years. However, under the other types of real leader turnover, it will reduce sovereign ratings. Furthermore, this study divided the samples into several groups by the country development degree. This study found that the nominal country leader turnover would enhance the degree of corruption after two and three years with the extreme development group. But, in the real country leader turnover, it would reduce sovereign ratings after one, two and three years. However, if the real country leader turnover, it would enhance the sovereign ratings after two years with the medium degrees. These empirical findings would provide some suggestions to the management and investors while making international investment.

The FDI increased rapidly since the 1980s. In addition, inward FDI and outward FDI in developing countries have increased dramatically. The impacts of FDI on economic growth have attracted considerable academic attentions. However, literatures obtain mixed conclusions. This study proposes that one of possible explanations might be that the contributions of FDI on economic growth may vary with levels of corruption. The empirical results, based on the cross-country panel from 1998 to 2006, indicate that a country can obtain larger (smaller) contribution of inward (outward) FDI on growth associated with less corruption, supporting our argument. Furthermore, outward FDI may not result in the hollowing-out or the de-industrialization effect. The results also suggest that attracting inward FDI to promote growth may not be a good policy for a developing country associated with serious corruption.

We use the research method of Panel Data, the F-test and the Hausman Test to conduct analysis with the fixed effects model and the random effects model in 2005-2011. Sample data contains 130 countries around the world,is base on the background of the countries are not the same; the electoral systems of countries are divided into three groups: the majority electoral system, the mixed electoral system and the proportional electoral system. The levels of income are divided into four groups: the low income level country, the lower-middle level country, the upper-middle income country and the high income level country. The result shows that the political economic may affect corporate governance. In addition to, the political economic may affect national levels of corruption also. Under the proportional electoral system, the corporate governance is more deteriorate than others electoral systems, and the national levels of corruption are more serious. This study proves that between the political economic and the national levels of corruption, the corporate governance have indeed mediation effect. On the other hand, this study demonstrates the quality of law enforcement and the legal norms is likely to become the substitute, and occurs in the low-income level country.

From a macroscopic perspective, this study based on our country’s existing Integrity System as a starting point, in the angles of Comparative System and practice, to analyze the current situation, influence and related problems of the country’s anti-corruption law system, as well as whether the needs of upright politics can be meet to achieve anti-corruption through related law systems available in our country, in order to exert the function of eliminating corruption and thus establish a government of integrity and honesty. Therefore, the public opinions which show great anticipation toward the government will be carried out indeed. According to the topic this study explored, this study was divided into three dimensions of“ Corruptive Behavior”,” National Integrity System”, “Anti-corruption Law System”, to explore related concepts and to gather literature. This study was conducted through methods such as Literature Review and Synthetic Method. A National Integrity System comprises a series of systematic mainstays and correlated core” values and measurements”, which emphasize basing on the target as a starting point to expound regulations and systems related to upright politics, providing a complete picture further, to explain the comparative position and context relation that the single-dimensioned policy of upright politics will be in the whole National Integrity System. “Anti-corruption Law System” is the core “values and measurements” that is needed for the systematic mainstay of anti-corruption institution. Thus, based on such a starting point, the status and current situation of Anti-corruption Law System in our country’s integrity system is understood. Further exploration and reviews were also made in hope of realizing upright politics in our country. Four conclusions were suggested by this study: 1. A perspective of National Integrity System may be beneficial to the development of upright politics in our country; 2. The regulating function of Anti-corruption Law System is not complete and has its limit;3. We should learn from Singapore and Hong Kong for their strong points in anti-corruption law systems; 4. The anti-corruption law system should be reviewed regularly, and anti-corruption ordinances should be set up.

Being a small-island economy and lacking abundant resources, Taiwan has paid close attention to internationalization. Compare with western MNCs Taiwanese small medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) lack international experiences, so the capacity to invest abroad directly may be limited. Due to these reasons, internationalization may bring the profit for Taiwanese businesses? Subject to internal environment of parent company and external environment of the host country, MNCs may encounter a lot of challenges in the process of international expansion. Previous empirical studies reveal that the relationships between internationalization and performance were inconsistent. The main reason may be that this relationship is interfered with many factors, especially the host country’s political and economic environment. However, not too many studies catch the importance of the political activities in the process of internationalization. Hence, this research combines political activities (i.e., the firm’s bribery and the host country corruption) and the environment in the host country (i.e., the level of the host country development) to investigate how internationalization improve MNCs’ performance. This study focuses on the relationships between internationalization extent and MNCs’ performance (parent company’s performance, innovation performance and subsidiary’s performance), and also explores the role of moderators in terms of firm’s bribery, host country corruption, and the level of the host country development. Empirical samples were taken from 2004 database of Department of Statistics, Ministry of Economic Affairs. They are 1,155 MNCs and 1,112 subsidiarys. Using hierarchical multiple regression method and ordinal logit for hypothesis testing, the findings show that: 1) internationalization has an U-shape effect on parent company’s financial performance, an inverse U-shape effect on subsidiary’s financial performance, and parent company’s innovation performance. 2) the host country corruption negatively influence parent country’s financial performance. 3) the level of the host country development has positive effect on parent country’s financial and innovation performance. 4) the parent country bribery has a positive effect on parent country innovation performance. 5) when the host country corruption is enhanced, it increases the effect of internationalization on subsidiary’s financial performance. 6) when the level of the host country development is enhanced, it decreases the effect of internationalization on subsidiary’s financial performance. This study also found that both the host country’s corruption and bribery were also important factors that disrupt social stability. This research points out another view of political activities and use political activities relevant behaviors to make up the gap of resource-based theory and expand the contents of firm’s resources.

Decentralization has become a direction of future government reforms and reinventions. However, at the meantime of promoting empowerment of local governments, the governance capacity of local governments has always been a main point deserving to be paid attention to, of which, corruption has long been a problem, annoying local government operations and influencing the quality of governance. Therefore, the issue of how to strengthen reforms would be the crux for local government toward good governance in the future. In recent years, the term “Yilan Experience” has gradually become the pronoun of good governance in the history of Taiwanese local government governance. The resistance of political figures toward combating corruption is the origin of Yilan Experience and successful governance results. Beginning from year 1981, the study explores related anti-corruption measures during the administration of Commissioner Chen, Yu, and Liu. The three phases are named as the initiation period, development period, and consolidation period, respectively. The research compares the differences of the three phases and concludes the political figure head, environment, reforms of administration procedure, transparent and open information, autonomous rules, changes of governance approaches, transfers of policy viewpoints, and responses to the public’s demand are the main factors of Yilan’s anti-corruption model. In the end, the study posts two suggestions on a nationwide and local basis in hope of providing local governments with some concrete practices to fighting corruption and pursuing good governance.

The issue of police corruption has once and again occurred, and police corruption should, theoretically, be deterred effectively under the strong and powerful disciplining actions by the police authority internally. Nonetheless, acts of corruption seem to have never been stopped, and therefore, it is not only to discover internal problem for police corruption but also probe for causes of police corruption from others aspect and external of the organization before the factors of police corruption that affect it can be located and spotted. This study has employed “literature analysis,” “case study,” and “expert in-depth interview,” and its has focused on information regarding 43 policemen who are involved with bribery cases in the last 5 years in Taipei County to carry out statistic analysis. It will work to establish the profile on police corruption problem, and then conduct content analysis from related literature theory so as to effective induce the behavior of police corruption. On the other hand, expert in-depth interview is employed to appreciate the cause of police corruption and correlate against their difference with that in this study so as to modify its research results timely. As such, it is able to understand the issue of police corruption cases and focus of problem raised with concern, and it is anticipated that the study results can help inspect and prevent the current status of corruption by police so as to put forth substantive suggestions. It is found from the study that reasons of police corruption can be included as: personal reason, such as poor management of personal wealth; participation of gamble and ending up gambling loan, and unscrupulous spending ending up in debts and salary deduction; organizational atmosphere (group behavior), such as gift-sending for socializing; performance policy, police are willing to connect themselves with triad society in order to fight for better performance record; abuse of power, use authority of their office to accept bribe or actively request for bribery. In view of the above-mentioned reasons, resolutions are then generated, including strengthening elimination mechanism, extermination of gift-sending culture, review of criminal policy, and power control and so forth. No matter if it is “external environment system,” “internal environment system” and “personal environment system” and other factors of causes lead to police corruption; in fact, since the state has endowed authority to police to enforce public authority, it is hard that police won’t abuse it as they await for an opportunity. Therefore, “power control” is the most effective measure for the prevention against police corruption, and it is noted by Kao Tai-Ming, an enterprise celebrity,” that “devil is found hidden within the detail.” It has well stressed that the hub of problem lies with every link of mechanism for control. As for power control, it should rely on with the implementation of “power of enforcement,” and it is considered as one of the primary cause most people believe police are not honest and clean. In such a way, the police administration should suitably establish effective mechanism of control and evaluation so as to avoid police power is being abused during the process of law enforcement, or exploit for personal benefit with their office so that public trust for law enforcement can be built up and favorable police image enhanced.

The purpose of this study was to investigate types of corruption that occurred in the township offices in Yunlin County. A case study approach was adopted, which was based on cases from the Law and Regulation Retrieving System, Judicial Yuan. The cases involved included corruption cases occurred in the last five years (July 1, 2008–June 30, 2013) in Yunli County, and only the cases that came to the Supreme Court for trial were analyzed. In addition, people who served as supervisors of government ethics offices in Yunlin County were interviewed to understand the causes of corruption identified in the township offices in Yunlin County. The results are expected to be a reference for staff of government ethics offices performing affairs against corruption in government organizations and township offices. Consequently, corruption in township offices could be avoided, and an honest and able government that satisfies people’s demands could be established. The research results show that in a township office (1) the construction division was most likely to involve in corruption, the most frequently seen corruption was public construction, and the people who were most likely to involve in corruption included staff in the construction division and the county executive; (2) people were most likely to violate Article 5.1.(3), “taking unlawful profits by an act that belongs to the official duties,” and Article 6.1.(4), “using the opportunity provided by one’s position of status for unlawful gains for oneself or for other in matters under his or her charge or supervision” in the Anti-Corruption Act. Moreover, they were inclined to violate Articles 213 and 216, “a public official who makes in a public document within his charge an entry which he knows to be false,” in the Criminal Code; and (3) the primary cause of public servant corruption was that providers or people suggested the intention of bribery and the public servant took the unlawful profits because of greed. The secondary cause was that a public servant asked for bribery from the provider, who had no choice but to obey. The tertiary cause was that a public servant, due to disorderly lifestyles or desire for unlawful profits, found opportunities to engage in unlawful behavior including asking for bribery or misappropriation. The aforementioned research findings and interview results revealed that the two high risk groups for corruption were construction organizers (water resources, land development, government procurement, and public construction execution) and executives elected by people. Furthermore, the followings are suggestions for government organizations to prevent public servants from involving in corruption or unlawful misconducts: (1) abolishment of democratically electing local executives; (2) emphasis on auditing the construction division; (3) implementation of job rotation; and (4) strengthening public servants’ awareness of laws.
