singapore. about five decades ago that tiny country was newly independent. for all of the rapid growth, it has the usual third world culture. that changed. he decided to pay government officials at power with those in the private sector. that killed the incentive for officials to be corrupt. the singapore solution is expensive especially for large countries with large bureaucracies but would probably still be a bargain considering how much corruption costs most. another idea kim out of africa. a man often wondered why his continent has the richest resources and richest natural resources and yet the poorest people. identifying corrupt leaders is the problem. he tried to change those leaders' incentives. instituted the annual prize, it awards $5 million to an african leader who is not corrupt and leads office peacefully. the winner then goes on to get an additional $200,000 annually for life. a great incentive, right? the problem is they couldn't find a winner for 2009 or 2010. the jury simply refused to make the award to someone that was not truly deserving.
