Who should bribe whom? Or who should inspect whom?

On the same day, another article in the newspaper reports, "The Education, Science and Technology Ministry has dismissed three senior officials who frequently received gifts from and were entertained by a construction company executive who is on trial for bribing a former ministry department head."
