Is this about the width of the soi which is less than 10 meter at some points based on which the hotel is apparently build illegal?

I think thats what the Auetus was about by and large (encroaching on to the pavement etc) This other case referred to in my link is a much bigger kettle of fish I can assure you...

corruption is worldwide ... just more exposed in some countries more than others.

I don't mind corruption .....  it can be effective if used for good.

It is effective only for the 2 parties involved. For all others it brings advantages and harm. Only the corrupting and corrupted persons, the totaly uneducated and idiots do not mind corruption.

Aetus must be passing out the brown envelopes.
