I did the national chart of the Philippines, which gained its independence from the USA on July 4, 1946. The chart shows why the government is corrupt. Specifically, Rahu is exalted in the 9th house, the significator for the seat of government. While there is a hope of the country for being knowledgeable in high technology, it is still mired in the unfortunate corruption of its government officials.
It's also interesting to note that Rahu represents the adopted religion of the country which is Catholicism, a faith that was not indigenous to the country, but was brought in by the Spaniards in 1521. And, the religion is still very powerful in the country today. Essentially, the Vatican has much influence in shaping the thinking of the people.
