Oh! there are lots of Definition of corruption There is not any single widely accepted definition of corruption and the term has been used in variable contexts. The most prominent definitions emphasize the abuse of public power or position for personal benefit. This definition out-rules private-to-private corruption. It can be argued that leaving the private-to-private sector out is artificial, because the effects on the economy are very much the same in spite of the actual process where corruption is taking place. Courruption is wide spread in Thailand as is accepted as the norm the western attitude is shock and disbelieve

in the eyes of western culture yes !!! but Thais see it different , In traditional Thai value system merit is derived from power and in this way forms a basis for patron- client relationship in the political society. There is also a tradition of presenting gifts to high officials. In this context you see that some things used to be legitimate under the traditional patronage system but are clearly to be considered problematic in modern legal system. A survey concerning people’s attitudes towards corruption. This study showed that many Thais still accept paying fees to officials as sin nam jai, the 'gifts of good will' and do not see that as a form of corruption. Much more they see taking things, even small ones like pencils, home from office corrupt. An other thing they found out was that there is a growing group of middle class people who oppose the corruption in its all forms. Still people expected the corruption even grow rather than disappear. Corruption in Thailand is entreched in The culture of the place ! so its not so simple in saying That is Corrupt by give a IO money it goes deeper !!
