>> Not being asked for bribe is not necessarily absence of corruption. For a crash course on How Real world corruption works. Great place to start is https://www.reddit.com/r/Economics/comments/c84bp/how_realwo....

Having in lived in India most of my life, I don't need to read an Economist article to find out what corruption is. Want to get a passport? Pay a bribe. Want to construct an addition to you house? Pay a bribe (or just do it illegally). The list goes on. In countries like US, Sweden, Canada, etc at least you're not hammered with corruption requests in your day-to-day existence.

What you are describing is bribery. Corruption is a closely related and slightly different thing.

Bribery is a form of corruption.

>Bribery is a form of corruption.

Agreed

By "Corruption is a closely related and slightly different thing" I meant the same thing. My point is non existence of bribery does not automatically translate to no corruption.
