A lot of people in western countries are unaware of how bad corruption is in the developing world.
It's not uncommon for something like 80% of government officials of all types to be corrupt, compared to under 5-10% in the west.
Go to one of these countries and you'll see it for yourself first hand if you ever deal with the government in any capacity.
You may start to see the same thing in the west with idelologues such as Trump, who care more about loyalty and power than corruption. He has already removed a lot of checks and balances in the system.
A lot of western people start operating in emerging markets to save on labor costs but then get crabby when there is a ton of bureaucracy and it's much harder to operate in compared to the US and EU.
Then they will have local people in their ear saying "just do this" and "this" is something not legal/ethical.

What the west calls corruption the east calls tradition.
the west just formalizes the expedited processing fee vis “due process” or a “deferred prosecution agreement”
Indeed, don't forget book deals, TV specials, speakers fees, offers of deferred employment in the company being regulated, and so on.
"Tea money"
