Why do you think there is so much government corruption in some developing countries ?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Corruption in some developing countries is more due toweak institutions, poor law and order, illiteracy, etc.

Step by step solution

01

Weak Institutions

The institutions in the DVCs countries are not that strong due to poor policies, lack of discipline, poor administration, and mismanagement of such institutional corruption.

02

Poor law and order

Law and order in the DVCs are very poor, due to which there are lack of responsibility and discipline, causing corruption.People bribe the officers in these countries. Those who bribe the officers will utilize the poverty of the nation, and this increases corruption. Lack of strict law and order also helps them.

03

Illiteracy
