@jack_daniel He wrote the best guide to how to handle corruption that I’ve ever read. It should be required reading for anyone travelling somewhere they’re likely to encounter petty bribery.

The genius of it is how he explains the world view that you have to operate inside, as well as the ways to navigate it. From paying bribes to pulling out fake journalist credentials, to deescalating situations and handling egos and reputations. How to give face and keep things from getting out of hand.
Truly amazing. I don’t know if he wrote anything else that was any good, but this was excellent.
