Bribing in west:
I can't comment on the current cases I am working on but can give you a general idea.
Pharmaceutical company creates a new drug, gets a patent, and gets FDA approval. Now it starts advertising. But the doctors wouldn't prescribe that drug heavily because it is not proven. So now to get the market share, they sponsor conferences through 3rd parties, in Bahama, Jamaica, Aruba etc.; 3 day conferences, doctors go free, family members 70% off. Or take one person free etc. deals. Sweet sweet deals in the name of conferences and meetings is a golf resort beside beaches. Now you know why many conferences are in those islands or lake tahoe or similar places. One hour conference 7 hours field study on the golf course.
These are bribe and kickbacks.
