It is the enemy of rule of law, human rights and development. It hinders democratic institutions, civilization and social values. It adversely affects the justice system and equality and creates bias and prejudice. It jeopardizes transparency, accountability and good governance. This evil phenomenon is found in all countries-big and small, rich and poor-but it is in the developing world that its effect are most destructive. Corruption hurts the poor disproportionately by diverting the funds intended for development, undermining a government's ability to provide basic services, feeding inequality and injustice and discouraging foreign aid and investment. World Bank has settled for " the abuse of public office foe private gain" as a formal definition of corruption. Though the bank regards private corruption as a serious matter worth considering, due to its heavy involvement with government lending activities, the Bank narrows down its definition to " abuse of public offices".

However, little information exists to classify key impacts or to identify how they vary across mining service towns. In this paper, qualitative social impact assessment techniques have been used to independently assess post-development impacts of mining on six communities in the Bowen Basin in Queensland, following the boom in coal prices between 2003 and 2008. The communities are similar in that they all have at least one mine in the vicinity and have more male than female residents but they differ in town histories, and the size plus growth rate of both their permanent and temporary populations. While the mining boom has been generating social and economic impacts, the pattern of the impacts appears to vary across communities depending on the size of the impact, community structure and history, and the extent to which a non-resident workforce is involved.
