 The Effects of Corruption on Small Businesses in Malawi and the Role of the United Nations (U.N)Nozgekani Mkwinda Nyasulu ()
Eximia Journal, 2022, vol. 4, issue 1, 186-194 Abstract: The aim of this research was to find out how corruption affected small businesses in Malawi and what the United Nations (U.N.) was doing about it. This study utilized qualitative data collection and analysis procedures. A questionnaire survey was administered to eleven conveniently selected participants. The results revealed that majority of the participants said that corruption exists, and it affected their businesses negatively. In addition, the anti-corruption laws of The United Nations and Malawi were not effectively enforced to stop corruption. Corruption is the core reason behind Malawi’s underdevelopment. The United Nations should collaborate with the Malawi government to: Ensure appropriate use of foreign aid; monitor and evaluate the implementation of enforcement of anti-corruption laws. They should work with the Malawi Anti-Corruption bureau, an independent government agency charged with prosecuting those who misuse the foreign aid and reimburse to the appropriate target. Hopefully, the United Nations will also help curb corruption in other developing countries that are greatly affected by corruption.
