Dear All,
I have something to say about this.
As a marketing person . i come across same issues. The best way is to convince the management to get the orders in a country like india if you are dealing with govt officials definitely there will be issues on bribe..At the end of the day it is most important that you should get the orders . I will suggest to go on with the system rather than becoming an idealist.

Well, it's good to refuse to bribe but it will be better if you stop other people pay bribe and punish such people who are asking for bribe. Think wisely, when someone ask for bribe for any purpose like the same in your case, do not directly refuse or deny arrogantly and just be polite and say as you will see if that possible and later you can inform the anti-corruption official for the same and then follow what they say....the same thing done by a person and the official were arrested by the anti corruption bureau red handed...now..further its your choice to go for good or better or any other way..

Dear All,

Thanks for a very wide perspective on corruption, a virus which exists in a dormant/ alive form in every Indian except a rare few.

I can proudly claim that I have never taken a bribe,

but yes I have paid bribes where there was no other option to get my work/ my organisation's work done.( I am neither ashamed of this nor proud)

If anyone should be ashamed, it should be the Prime Minister and the chain which makes it virtually impossible for people of this country to do any work

without greasing palms of people.

INSTANCE 1. I was working with a company who followed high values and principles. Their construction project got stuck in an NCR town of UP.

They tried all the LEGAL and ETHICAL methods to get their project cleared, but nothing budged even an inch for a year. Delay meant huge losses plus also the same

authority would levy penalty for not completing the construction in time.

Finally they had to put aside, their values and got hold of a 'consultant' who got their project through.

Even the best of the companies from the West like Walmart realise this phenomenon. ;IN INDIA BRIBE LIKE THE INDIANS DO.

Yes its possible to live in India without taking a bribe. That is in our control

But its virtually impossible to survive without giving a bribe. It may be possible if you give up your job for one year just to keep running around tables to get a driving license., or give up your job for two years to fight for a passport.

So my advice to this thread starter is..inform the boss. Take their opinion and then decide what you want to do.

Bribing is not just in India, it's all over the world. Please see Bribing Kids vs. Rewarding Kids for Good Behavior: What's the Difference? to appreciate how children can either be bribed or rewarded.
Kindly also see Bribery - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia where different forms of bribery have been covered. I had told a student, in my MBA class, "Everyone has a price. If you want me to pass you, or give a good grade, when you have not performed well, you have to ensure that I can retire comfortably after doing that."
I am not justifying giving or taking bribe that is prevalent in India.
