Corruption is a global problem. People who are greedy about money wishes to have more and more of them through immoral ways. Preventing corruption is a difficult task, however, with proper co-operation from the public and government, it is possible to minimize them. Here a few simple tips to deal with corruption.
Know the problem
Corrupt people don’t consider it as a shame to ask or demand a sum of money for the sake of doing their routine jobs. Some criminals demand products instead of money. Any form of illegal dealing of money is considered as corruption. In fact, it is the primary reason for all the problems of our society. Corruption encourages the deadly activities like terrorism, brutality, assault, etc. When good people are elected to rule the nation, obviously corruption will minimize. The choice of forming a good government is in the hands of the public. People should vote for the right citizens. In fact, that’s the greatest power of the public. One of the true reasons for rising corruption levels is that good people are leaving hands to fight against it, while bad people are joining hands together to find new ways of corruption.
Know who is responsible
Corruption begins with the lender who bribes people for doing immoral works successfully. When someone is ready to offer, obviously, there will be someone to accept it. The lender is indirectly responsible for corruption because only he/she initiates it. If nobody is willing to offer money or things through illegal ways, there will be nobody to accept it. In this modern world, everybody wants things to happen faster and easily. Corrupt people use ‘time’ as the trump card to demand bribes from others. Even if someone initiates corruption, a good citizen won’t accept it. He/she can even take actions against the lender. Having known the basic reasons for corruption, you should never encourage corruption in any form. When one person takes action against corruption, obviously, his/her surroundings will start following it. In time, the entire community will adapt it.
What can we do about it
The public is also a major reason for the rising issues of corruption. Majority of them are not willing to co-operate and co-ordinate with others who are ready to take actions against corruption. When people ignore to report activities of corruption to the legal authorities, corrupt people will only take advantage of it. In reality, bad information travels faster than the good ones. That’s why corruption had widespread around the world. Try to discourage corruption as much as possible. If one person initiates actions against corruption, he/she will subsequent receive huge support from good people. Make your friends and relatives become aware of the evil effects of corruption. Prevent innocent people from getting involved into corruption who are being misled by other corrupt people.
Be aware of the laws
There are several laws to prevent corruption. But, people are not aware of them. In fact, there are some people who don’t take necessary steps to report corruption, even after knowing the laws. They are afraid of losing their lives for making statements against the corrupt people. If everybody thinks the same, corruption will only grow rapidly. Majority of the people are lazy and afraid to minimize corruption. If they are aware of the laws against corruption, definitely, they would not encourage corruption in any form. Most people blame their society for the improper availability of resources. In reality, there are lot of resources around them; people don’t wish to spend time to read those laws. Ignorance of laws should not be an excuse for the rise of criminal activities.
Focus on the positive side
Thinking from the positive point of views would definitely minimize corruption. But, most people don’t realize the power of positive thinking. Instead of focusing their attention towards immoral activities, people must divert their attention on the solutions to eradicate corruption. There are a number of ways to avert the practice of corruption in this society. Majority of the people concentrate only on the negative effects of corruption. If you find it quite difficult, just feel as if there is no corruption in this world. It will help you to focus your attention on good deeds. If everybody starts feeling it, even corrupt people would hardly remember the word corruption as time goes by. But, most people don’t agree it. As a result, the effect of corruption keeps increasing day by day. Boost yourselves with the good part of your life.
