I had seen: Confucious values had been abandoned since Taiwan
opened up to foreign investments.
Corruption in capitalistic society seems to be more tolerated in
some countries due to its legal structure. Seems like white collar
criminals get to stay in jail shorter than those other criminals,
while receive less caning, sometimes even managed to stock away
their wealth in other countries in secret before getting
caught and jailed.
I dare say the most intelligent white criminals prefer to do
white collar crimes in SG due to the environment of its jail. I
mean, when you do such crimes in hongkong or in
thailand, I think your victims will also try to 'reach'
you even when you are in a jail...if you know what I
mean, being a white collar criminal is 'less safe' there.
Then again in some countries, corruption is often the culture.
Such as philipines... In singapore, not so sure.
