Corruption is everywhere. We from the West seem to be far better at hiding it than here in the East, maybe that is why there is such a big stink about it when it gets uncovered back there.

As an aside, I work in Muscat, Oman. A strictly Muslim country but with quite a liberal outlook towards it's expat community. One might think that hearing of the horrendous ways in which Muslims (allegedly) treat their criminals, crime and corruption would be considerably less. Not a bit of it, 15 or so years ago they built a wonderful Mosque, it is quite exquisite, however, it was paid for at least twice over as funds were siphoned into officials pockets. No-one was charged. Where have we heard that before?

While there is corruption in Thailand, the article is related to corruption in Spain, therefore not Thai related and now closed.
