ST Engineering

I do not understand the law. Why are they being charged when they are the one giving the bribe. It is not ok if they are bribing government officials.
However in this case, they are bribing companies to win businesses for their own company. I see no fault in that. It happens frequently in the business world.

I agree. The recipients of the bribes are greedy and dishonest and in all cases, must have demanded the bribes before agreeing to show favour to the givers who don't have much of a choice in this competitive world. All they want is to win a contract or two for their companies. On the other hand, the greedy employees on the take are secretly enriching themselves, not helping their companies in any way. They are the ones who should be punished for being corrupt.

I respect both your views but I disagree. A bribe is an inducement for someone to enrich themselves by doing something under table or outside of a transparent process. That to me is wrong.

Hi Muck, I understand where you are coming from. In this case, the members of ST Engineering were not enriching themselves. They were enriching members of another company in order for ST Engineering to earn more.
