It seems to me that the first step in the process of fixing the corruption is to acknowledge it. And the the fact that the papers are printing that people are being brought to task for these crimes, shows progress. Before it happened, but few people knew about it. Now it seems that more and more corruption is being exposed, and flushed out. That is good...although from the surface it might seem like it is getting worse.
