Increased regulations and control mechanisms are probably not the answer. They are costly and tend to stifle initiatives and administrative dynamics. But why not have better regulation and more effective control in areas prone to corruption. Is that so difficult?

Personal greed that leads to an unfettered desire for money or power, with no regard whatsoever to moral boundaries. The underlying anthropological cause is the innate human impulse to own external goods, when it is not subject to personal integrity. Is personal integrity less valued than it used to be? Is there a need for religious or other types of motivation that were once stronger?

Corruption is a matter of human nature. If I am a politician, I may also be corrupt because I have to consider my relatives or other friends. People usually want to do more. Only blockchain can solve the problem of corruption.

If a person in power does not believe in accountability and transparency, he or she deemed to be corrupt(at least in mind) regardless of someone can prove the person is corrupt or not.

I don't know why people are still talking about religions, we are different, each one has his beliefs, what is the problem?

No matter how much you want to, religion will not be silent. There is no problem, religion has existed for thousands of years and disputes about it are constant. The wars of the past were also largely due to religion, and people are still dying because of religion.

I think instead, we should talk about our real life, we are not living in the promised paradise, we are living in countries where there are many problems, especially corruption if we speak about third world countries.

Corruption is a separate and very long conversation. Corruption goes with a person for hundreds of years and it is difficult to eradicate it. Where locally it is possible to repay, but still the world is suffering from corruption constantly.

Man is a creature that wants to live richly and nothing to deny. This is human psychology and this psychology is supported by many temptations that exist in our world.
Of course , each person is individual, but probably in 90% of cases, when you get power and access to money, a person has a mania of money and their theft. All say money does not happen much and it's true. Officials sitting in power for years have on their accounts 6-digit amounts but they are still small, and they take more just to have more. Yes, the economy of many countries suffers from this, and very much, but there is still no cure for corruption.

We are suffering from this phenomenon in our country for instance, this is the real life, it doesn't matter if a president, a businessman, or a simple full-time worker is atheist, if he does his best to develop his country...
I agree, we must focus more on what we are facing now. Corruption is one of the problem on every country was facing. Poor people suffer more because of the corrupted people eapecially who are in the government .

Where there is greed, there will always be corruption. That will never change. Sad, but true. This world will never be perfect not matter if you're religious or not.

I totally agree with you, people should forget about religion, or not tolerate it in a General way.
And just to develop, become better, conquer other planets and look for other Nations. Do you agree?

Corruption are starting become a tradition in the country where I live, Indonesia. It has become the norm of governments elite to do the dirty work. As an example, the corruption of local agency departments It happens in Malang where all the 41 from 45 government employees are involved in corruption. Isn't it bizarre?.

The latest viral news about corruption in the countries is the ex-prisoner of corruption is allowed to become a governments candidate yet again, for the sake of democracy. The problem is there are a lot of unliterate people in Indonesia, that make candidate have a chance to be re-elected again.

Corruption is everywhere main in a poor country. How many poor how much corruption. When I see the corruption then I feel very unlucky thinking that why I was born in this country. I hate corruption, I hate dirty politics.

I agree with you that corruption is the major thing to talk about and not religion. This issue of taking religion ahead of corruption is common in the third world countries. People have to be educated to the level where they believe that a very religious person can as well be corrupt.

We should be cautious about accepting the word of armed groups who call governments corrupt. They are murderous and will say anything to attract more followers.  Undecided

I agree with you, it's time for us to change, change where common sense and conscience are used, not about what other people are doing, religion is trust, people who are corrupt don't have religion and religious people have gods that will lead to the road correct

In our society there should be no place for corruption. One can achieve effective counteraction against this phenomenon only by combining the efforts of all the institutions of civil society.
With a clear and conscientious fulfillment of all the above tasks, social cohesion in the fight against any forms of corruption, personal interest of law enforcement authorities in law enforcement in the country, society has a chance to bypass the criminalization of all spheres of life through corruption.

Corruption is a problem at all levels. I’m always amazed at how corrupt people manage to abuse their power even when given the tiniest bit.

That is right. religion is not a big deal. It is  not a problem, it is just ones own beliefs. I think most important thing in life is Humanity love and  peace. If one does take care of those it would be a human being, even i think nationally is not an important thing. rather it is a problem. how? Guess there is no USA no Russia not as a country, would there be any necessary of nuclear weapons? What's the point of it? Protecting nationally. Who knows may be nationally would be the Excuse of 3rd world war? So it can be said, Nationally is the father of nuclear weapon?

corruption is a serious problem of course but not religion. You can take care of your religion as well as humanity.

Countries plagued by corruption are like milk cows for the rich. They do their rounds, make sure the money is counted and that's where their involvement in politics and the lives of ordinary people ends. Did you see what happened in Ukraine when they got to the mansion of their president? He had tennis courts, bowling alleys, everything laced in gold and carved wood. http://ukrainetrek.com/blog/photos/the-former-residence-of-viktor-yanukovych-in-mezhyhiria/
And the average salary in Ukraine is €300, which is 4 times less than the average German earns.

I agree with you. I`m very sympathetic to the people who were victims of such politicians. But I`m still tormented by the question, why is the situation like this? Didn't the people themselves bring these politicians to power?
I think that the people are also responsible for what is happening in their country. And if they have a corruption, then they must not only complain, but also do something about it.

I think that religion in some countries has a very important role to cause, create, and feed dictatorship. In some countries, they use religion to let people debate about topics that have ni importance, and no impact in their lives. They use also religion to push people to obey them... etc, and different uses. They can even change religious verses to achieve their goals and remain in power..

The downside to talking about the politics, for example, is we all live in different countries, like you said. The conversation may be controversial, but it will be limited because the only people who can relate to your sentiments are those who live in the same country as you. Religion is pretty much universal though. Besides, if we're to talk about corruption, we'd be talking about for months because it's prevalent everywhere, especially in politics!

Corruption is indeed the plague for the majority of countries. They share similar pattern - the group of corrupt dishonest officials milk the country of its money while, for example, investing in offshore enterprises and building their palaces.
I wonder what is the best way to tackle corruption: China has death penalty, for example, but this can hardly be implemented in other countries now. Some Blockchain based solutions come to mind, but at this point I don`t believe that corrupt officials will ever let it happen.
