I grew up in an Asian country where I have seen police corruption first hand more than once and I always wished my country had better educated and morally strong individuals who would protect the weaker sections of the society instead of siding with rich&#x2F;powerful people even if they are criminals.<p>I always wished like in the west police would enforce the law regardless of the status of that individual and that police and other govt officials are better paid and hence there was no need for them to get corrupted for the sake few extra bucks.<p>I am currently working in one of those &quot;developed&quot; countries in the west and observing things around me, reading articles&#x2F;comments like here. It appears that, it is not really very different here either. I guess human greed is universal.
