An act of gift’ and ‘an act of bribe

               

 

‘A gift is a bribe if you can’t eat, drink or smoke it in a day’.

 

 

If you think that your offer of acceptance of a particular gift would have grave or merely embarrassing  consequences  for  your  company  if  made  public,  then  the  gift  should  be considered a bribe.

 

 

Bribe can be said to be a substantial amount of money or goods offered beyond a stated business contract with the aim of winning an advantage in gaining or keeping the contract .

 

 

Here substantial’ means that which is sufficient to distort the judgment of a typical person.
