The researcher has long discussed ideas on how culture related to corruption. The buzzword “corrupt culture” was introduced to describe a group of people who act corrupt behavior. Some researcher proclaimed that particular culture permits corrupt behaviors, such as gift-giving. However, to claim that gift-giving is a corrupt behavior, prudent consideration should be taken place. What is being meant as gift-giving in a certain area could be understood as simple bribes in other areas. This paper highlight the importance of understanding cultural relativism before judging the claim of a vile relationship between corruption and culture. Further, strategy to combat corruption is also advised.
