We are always better than someone but there is also someone who is always better than us. Moreover, we won’t settle where we so we idolize the people who we think are superior to us. Besides, there is a big possibility we might copy the traits and doings of the person we look up to as well. I came up with this idea as what east most likely think about west way of life.
I
saw the photo representation of the latest corruption perception
index. I observed that there are also many countries in the west and
this interests me. On the World Wide Web, I come across to
an article in europeanvoice.com entitled: Corruption,a disease shared by east and west. It
talked about how western nations influence other nations which admire
them in different ways. Little by little, to meet the standards of
westerns was aimed by the inferior countries. Furthermore, it
emphasized that corruption is all over west. People were blinded by
the outlook to the western people and mostly because most countries
in west are wealthy so corruption is not noticeable, they can easily
deal with it. Finally, it
declared some points that people must take note,”
The picture is not uniform. Some ‘eastern' countries (such as
Estonia) are a lot more honest than some of the ‘western' ones. And
within countries, the level of corruption varies too. I am yet to be
favourably impressed by the conduct of nationalised industries,
natural-resource ministries and licence-rich bits of local government
anywhere in the region. But the outlines of the problem are similar
everywhere. The state lacks the clout to reward the people who serve
it honestly, and to punish those who cheat it. Creating a critical
mass of honest officials is hard: as Lenin said, cadres decide
everything. Western Europe can cope with corruption because it is
already rich. Sleaze is a brake on growth, but not a fatal.” We
are all in same condition but we are in different situation. Since,
each country has different culture and economic status we all
experience corruption but its effect are not same to each place. The
only thing we can do is to fight corruption through our deeds.
Countries
in the west and east are mostly opposites of each other in many
things. Although they differ, they are same with each other when we
talk about corruption. Since everyone is corrupt in their own little
way, everyone is sinner as to be corrupt is to be greedy.
