Anti Corruption Commission Bangladesh - Vision

Vision

The Commission has formulated some forms of corruption in Bangladesh, for everyone to know, understand and prepare ourselves to completely erase corruption from our lives, if not reduce it.

Bribery: It is the offering of money, services or other valuables to persuade someone to do something in return. Synonyms: kickbacks, baksheesh(tips), payola, hush money, sweetener, protection money, boodle, and gratuity.

Embezzlement: Taking of money, property or other valuables by the person to whom it has been entrusted for personal benefit.

Extortion: Demanding or taking of money, property or other valuables through use of coercion and/or force. A typical example of extortion would be when armed police or military men exact money for passage through a roadblock. Synonyms include blackmail, bloodsucking and extraction.

Abuse of discretion: The abuse of office for private gain, but without external inducement or extortion. Patterns of such abuses are usually associated with bureaucracies in which broad individual discretion is created, few oversights or accountability structures are present, as well as those in which decision-making rules are so complex as to neutralise the effectiveness of such structures even if they exist.

Improper political contributions: Payments made in an attempt to unduly influence present or future activities by a party or its members when they are in office.

Famous quotes containing the word vision:

    Deep in the human heart
    The fire of justice burns;
    A vision of a world renewed
    Through radical concern.
    William L. Wallace (20th century)

    In the works of man, everything is as poor as its author; vision is confined, means are limited, scope is restricted, movements are labored, and results are humdrum.
    Joseph De Maistre (1753–1821)

    I’ve been cursed for delving into the mysteries of life. Perhaps death is sacred, and I’ve profaned it. Oh, what a wonderful vision it was. I dreamed of being the first to give to the world the secret that God is so jealous of, the formula for life. Think of the power, to create a man. And I did, I did it, I created a man. And who knows, in time I could have trained him to do my will. I could have bred a race, I might even have found the secret of eternal life.
    William Hurlbut (1883–?)
