The businessman approaches the minister in charge and tells the minister that according to his projections he can undertake and complete the project and expect to make a profit of ten million dollars. And he proposes to the minister that if he is awarded the project, then 20 percent of the profit will be deposited in a secret offshore bank account in the minister's name. Duh ... deal done!!<br /><br />Of course, you, KT, being a highly educated and intelligent man, your question is really a rhetorical one. Right?<br /><br />Simple SimonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
