You're coming to this completely wrong.
In the 3rd world, it's all bribery. It's not "a few rotten apples" but it's the whole system. If you don't bribe, you don't exist.
I've sat with a judge in the Philippines making legal requests and have met all the requirements. Nothing works, everything gets rejected because only later I realized I needed to bribe the judge - he was asking for payment indirectly. Courts as a whole work exactly the same. Lawyers just smirk and tell you it's all about quid pro quo, all the rest is an illusion - pretending there are laws and systems.
You either bribe and get something done or you don't exist at all.
