Hello friends.....
To a varying degree, corruption exists in almost all countries. However, the degree to which it impacts the common peoples lives and increases poverty is directly proportional to the level of this scourge and how widespread it is in society. A countrys or provinces development depends on how much of the States resources are lost to this ugly practice.
In developed countries, where corruption is limited to a small number of projects and where common people do not encounter it on a daily basis, the adverse impact tends to be marginal and does not jeopardise the welfare of its people. In contrast, a poor country like Pakistan, where each borrowed dollar must be spent to uplift the people from poverty, it has a significant impact. A recent World Bank report lists corruption and lack of transparency as the two core reasons that hamper Pakistans drive for development.
However, these indices do not convey the terrible pain and sufferings that the brutal practice of corruption has caused to the common people of Pakistan. Many people in Pakistan believe that much of the development and a significant portion of the operations allocations are lost due to bribery and other related illegal and unethical activities. The extreme poverty and lack of infrastructure and basic services in the rural areas of Sindh and Balochistan are in part fuelled by bribery, influence peddling, extortion, and abuse of power.
The people and international donors must rise to the occasion and start pressurising Islamabad to curtail corruption and improve governance. Failure to do so in a timely manner will continue to frustrate the poor people and make them weary of the current democratic system and drive them to extremism. It is a widely held view that the practice of bribery in Pakistan is widespread, systematic, and that it is entrenched at all levels of government.
A World Bank report containing an assessment of the Pakistans Infrastructure Capacity (PICA) states that 15 percent of the countrys development budget for 2007-08 was lost in the procurement process alone due to corruption. This does not include subsequent costs of corruption in the implementation and maintenance stages of projects.
Hope this helps you....

Impact of corruption is very hard on public life.
This is more of awkward and defaming condition than being problematic.
But it appears that the corruption is ever rising and unstoppable.
Further the people involved in corruption seem to be hiding themselves by blaming others. Even they are proud of themselves as they made more money in short time.
To worsen the condition further, those involved in corruption are able to get better promotions and opportunities.
People also have developed an opinion that it is the only way to get their work done. If not, the work will be pending for long or even might not be done.
Effects of corruption on people
In a system with corruption there is no quality of service. To demand quality one might need to pay for it. This is seen in many areas like municipality, electricity, distribution of relief funds etc. If a person has to purchase a like medicine, due to corruption in education then the candidate after completion of his course will not like to provide quality health service if there is not enough remuneration for his service. Further candidates who do not have the ability can also get into the same seat by purchasing it. So though he becomes a medical practitioner, he may not be competent enough.
