It doesn't erase the fact that it exist here and the people who are perpetrating this are scot-free to do their thing with impunity because the govt. agency- if there is, pardon my incredulity and sarcasm- tasked to look into these matters have eyes wide shut.
Yes it comes in many forms. Sometime beautifully wra as site visit with shopping money, or FOC overseas training and pocket money. All these watered- down freebies are in fact been factored into the vendors offer. There is no such thing as free lunch.
Negligible? Of course, the place is oozing with moolah. Not unless the corrupt is extremely greedy to siphon off an obscene amount is he finally herded off to jail in the quiet of the night, or if he's well connected and blue blooded too maybe he is merely deported to his homeland. But after a while, like all sins, they fade away from the collective consciousness.
And how does it impact their society? Well, money that could've increased the salaries of employees or given out as bonuses. It certainly is a good motivator. And if this were the health sector that is affected as the OP has pointed, what do you think the outcome will be? I dread just to think about it. Woe the poor guy as collateral damage.
The future is bright for the corrupt. What with the billion dollar projects looming large at the horizon.
