Jose posted:http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/jun/05/jack-warner-bribe-vote-egypt-world-cup The first thing I got asked about when I wanted to do business in Egypt was for a bribe. Their ambassador was arrested for taking bribes a few weeks later. They have been, at the time, one of the most corrupt countries in the world. There's no way I believe any of this.

Mr. Mambold posted:When was this? Regimes change you know. Egypt was corrupt as gently caress during the cold war. They were one of the leaders of the unaligned movement and played the US and Soviet Union off each other, extracting massive concessions and aid (bribes) from both parties. They also hold a very strong bargaining position in trade negotiations within the region due to the suez canal. Egypt wasnt really my thing and that is the extent of my memory

Just two delegations sitting at the table, twiddling their thumbs. "So... how're the kids?" "Oh, they're super. Really super." "Right." *checks watch while the other guy whistles*
