Well, Mr. Chaney is not saying that their government doesn't have corrupt people on them. What he's just saying is that if we want to reduce, if not totally eliminate it, we should not tolerate it. Which is true. If we don't give bribes to those corrupt people in different branches of the government, then they wouldn't exist at all. For example, the only reason kotong cops exists is because many people would rather give bribes to kotong cops than be responsible and honorable enough to accept punishment for traffic violations. And regarding the Ubuntu CD's, rather than giving bribes or simple just giving up, we should do something like reporting the offender to the proper authorities if you prefer not to make a "scandal" at the customs office. -- Gideon N.
