One of my friends, now a U.S. citizen, had a father who was a top political leader in Nepal. He would openly admit, without any shame, that his father was involved in corruption. It's likely that his education and living expenses in the U.S. were funded by that money his parents raised. I recall when he was having a tough time on his student visa I remember him complaining about how corrupt Trump was and how bad he was for the country, even calling himself "poor." I believe he got his U.S. green card last year by marrying a Nepali woman. Just a few days ago, during a conversation, I realized he was now supporting Trump, citing reasons like inflation, employment, violence and immigration. I often feel that those who complain about corruption are resentful because they can't participate in it. In fact, people who criticize corruption often just want the opportunity to exploit one another and their nations. I feel like we've all just become a group of opportunists that's why "हामी नेपाली भन्नेको मौका नपाएको बेइमान हो।"
