The Howls of the Corrupt

The whole world seems to be against me the Corrupt.  But is it really so? Isn’t it because of the breeding ground made available to me that I am corrupt. If people were genuinely and sincerely opposed to corruption, how could have I as a corrupt person survived? Frankly speaking, I am corrupt, because people want me to be so.

Money Money All Around

Raju was highly excited and thrilled. His breathings were heavy and fast. He looked at his cell phone and read the sms again and again. Is he dreaming? He rubbed his eyes and pinched himself to ascertain if he was indeed awake. The message was clear and distinct. It read: 

“You have won 750,000 pounds in CNN World News Poverty Alleviation Award, winning #7, to claim it contact Dr Jim via Emailcnnworldnewsdept@live.com”. 

Dishonesty Is Better Than The Best Policy

Honesty is a word of the past! The high-sounding words like ‘honesty’, ‘integrity’ and ‘truthfulness’ do not carry any meaning any more. It is money and money all the way, right from the top to the bottom. The end justifies the means. If the end is to accumulate wealth, the means could be anything – deception, outright dishonesty or forgeries. The god of ‘money’ is all-powerful, as he can swiftly wash-off all the sins associated with the means to accumulate cash. 

MAKING EASY MONEY

It was a cool October evening  when I settled down on my laptop to look for incoming mail. This had been a usual chore for me for quite some time. While glancing over the list of mail, I stopped at one that came from one of my old colleagues.  ‘Surprising’, I murmured, ‘never did this gentleman ever use email to write to me.’  Our usual communications – on occasions like festivals – had been through SMS only. With a mixed feeling of surprise, curiosity and urgency, I opened the post   to find a very distressful communication. It went something like this:   

AN UNUSUAL ENCOUNTER

It was dark all around. The sound of the lone barking dog outside was intruding into the all-pervading silence in the air. It made the environment eerie and frightening,
There was a knock at the door. Who could be there at this dead of night?

THE BOON OF MODERN AGE – BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION

Who does not want to be rich? A rich man is an influential man and an empowered person. He is important, he is VIP and he is the virtual king. The whole world seems to be at his beck and call. Who will not like to avail himself of this privilege?
