What we in industrialized societies consider to be our biggest priority has to do with much more sophisticated cases of fraud and corruption. To put it in a somewhat simplistic way, what the military may wrench from their people in a developing country somewhere in the South may well be taken away from the bank account of your company by a skillful hacker in a developed country of the North. This is where the remarks of Hans Drayer fit in. I have seen many cases where donors are happy to simply show around charts and tables full of impressive figures as to how much money they have disbursed. Spending money may just not be enough.
Price is one thing, the real value is another thing.
In both cases shoppers and donors have to be on the look-out for what they really expect. In both cases it takes research.
