Registration form for Corruption-Free Generation 1st Public Lecture: "Corruption as an Economic Problem"

(Versi BM di bawah) Many people would normally associate corruption as a moral or political problem, they may not immediately realise how corruption can have economic costs and negative impacts on society. 

The economy is not just some big national data and figures such as GDP, but should also include contributing factors such as labour and land use. Exploited labour and land grabs bring misery to people and impoverish some. 

Losses in the economy due to corruption could lead to an increase in the cost of living, as the bribers would be prepared to pass on the costs to the end consumer. Ultimately, this could mean higher prices for housing and private vehicles. When rent-seeking becomes the norm, it distorts market competition, prevents a healthy market and denies fair opportunities.

Losses to government coffers from corruption would also mean less money for communities in need. Layers of corruption can also pose risks to society if certain projects are cut corners, compromising quality control and public safety.

To learn more about the impact of corruption on our economy, join us on Saturday 25 March (9am-1pm) for the first public lecture series of the Corruption-free Generation. Free registration . Please refer to the list of speakers and the topics of discussion below.

Ramai orang sering kaitkan rasuah sebagai masalah moral atau politik, tidak sedari bagaimana rasuah boleh memberi kesan buruk kepada ekonomi dan masyarakat.

Ekonomi bukan hanya data dan angka-angka besar seperti KDNK, tetapi juga harus termasuk faktor-faktor penyumbang seperti tenaga buruh dan penggunaan tanah. Tenaga buruh yang dieksploitasi dan perampasan tanah membawa kesengsaraan kepada rakyat dan memiskinkan sesetengah mereka.

Kerugian dalam ekonomi akibat rasuah boleh menyebabkan peningkatan kos hidup, kerana pemberi rasuah akan bersedia untuk memindahkan kos kepada pengguna akhir. Akhirnya, ini bermakna harga yang lebih tinggi untuk perumahan dan kenderaan persendirian. Apabila pencarian sewa menjadi norma, ia mengubah persaingan pasaran, mencegah pasaran yang sihat dan menafikan peluang yang adil.

Kerugian kepada dana kerajaan dari rasuah juga bermakna kurang wang untuk komuniti yang memerlukan. Lapisan rasuah juga boleh menimbulkan risiko kepada masyarakat jika projek tertentu dikompromi, mengganggu kawalan kualiti dan keselamatan awam.

Untuk mengetahui lebih lanjut tentang kesan rasuah terhadap ekonomi kita, sertailah kami pada Sabtu 25 Mac (9 pagi-1 petang) untuk siri kuliah umum pertama Generasi Bebas Rasuah. Pendaftaran percuma. Sila rujuk kepada senarai pembicara dan topik perbincangan di bawah.
