This mite or mite not work out well with every one ...

but i have to confess i paid Rs. 400 to get my
international license, i didn't even think about not
paying the bribe and realized only when i knew that my
friend had got the same paper work done with the
minimum charge (no bribe - < Rs. 10 if i remember
correct)

May be there are a few more senthils around

All Senthils should think before doing such things
May be we dont have to pay the bribe
