Gratuity and corruption in Travel

Gratuity and corruption in Travel An interesting problem is that travelers who are in another country. This problem is the difference between storage and bribing.In North American culture, the deposit is something you do when you have a good service as a kind gesture to the service provider to give you good service. They do this in restaurants, hotels, bars, taxis.Bribing and, on the other hand, is illegal and immoral. In North American culture (indeed, in the Canadian and American culture) as a bribe is something that if you want a situation to go and the way you grease the wheels you have to make it happen.In other cultures, but also the culture of Mexico (which is why we have corrected the last paragraph), corruption is an acceptable compromise on the part of the service exchange. Although it might not be recognized as a bribe, and can also be denied orally accepted as it is, corruption is a way to help other cultures, even among the highest authorities.Taking the road, in some cases, could not be the best situation. When you pulled on the fees for the ominously in a country in South America, the best thing you can do to a little 'money to the person who have settled on go.The this is a reason acceptable to the facility is because in many countries where corruption is acceptable (with an eye to its widespread use) of the countries conceed can be socially, politically or economically unstable, and therefore able to properly pay wages to police officers, soldiers, public employee or meet. You can find out the bills, but at the end of the day, your salary is generally the food on the table. Not so in these countries, where wages in May hardly pay for a months worth of food, but there is no possibility of a better job. In this way, corruption is the system like most legitimate way to ea enough to family.If still uncomfortable with the concept of corruption, as a first point your service! So if you are in a difficult situation in a country not their own, put yourself in the other person's shoes and think about how you try to make a living under less fortunate circumstances.Jeff Laki is the founder of a Travel website, information about travel
