The World Bank has released a report concluding that so-called "quiet corruption" is causing as much if not more problems for ordinary citizens than does more typical forms of corruption like bribing for government contracts, etc. "Quiet corruption" basically refers to corruption stemming from individual public sector employees failing to deliver government services such as education and health care. By falling short on their duties, these government employees deprive citizens of the most basic necessities, resulting in recurring systemic harm. Although "quiet corruption" does not receive the same attention as its more lucrative counterpart, its impact and reach may far surpass that of million-dollar bribery and extortion scandals.
