How Corruption Affects Property Prices

How does corruption work in the construction sector? And how does it trickle down to affect the price you pay for your house or office building? IDEAS and CBI looked into this issue with their study “Corruption in the Supply Chain: Forms and Impacts on Consumers”. The study looked at corruption in construction, healthcare, and education that took place here and its impact on the price of goods, including property. Tricia Yeoh and Mark Chay take to Sim about the issue.

For more on the study, you can check it out here.
