yup. Its just Government officials looking for bribes to close their investigations.
It was certainly that way when I worked in Saudi Arabia. Nothing gets done without baksheesh(bribe)!
very true, and we have shady dealings at home - unfortunately and as the saying goes, money talks and BS walks
Nope, Boeing executives can go to jail for bribes. Airbus it’s just the cost of doing business.
going to jail yes, if caught, there is a number of questionable tactics going on , although not as blatant or visible elsewhere, the US is better about this issue, but.........., separately, american companies overseas have to "prepare" the road to do business, seen in the middle east all the time
I see you provided no facts or references to back up your assertions.
If you want to find out who has committed bribery just in Nigeria alone, simply look for any foreign corporations that are doing business there. For aircraft makers, that includes Boeing, Airbus, Embraer, Dornier, etc. The same bribery culture is probably present in many third-world countries.
