Who controls keeping strictly to the established order, observing laws, and administering justice in Russia? Russian Militia, of course.
To receive a jobs in Russian militia it is very difficult.
While working in militia I saw and learnt a lot, though what I have learnt is not a secret for most people in Russia. The Russian Militia is very corrupted organization in Russia. There you can buy everything starting with inspection document on your car (in my town it is $15) and ending with freedom for killers.

Here I want to tell you how people in Russia become militiamen.
It is not so easy to become a militiaman. One should have acquaintances or relatives in militia there to help you. Then you must be put on the staff. First you must have a medical. If you are a man you must be not less than 175cm (about 5.7 feet) tall, if you are a woman - not less than 170cm (5.6 feet). You must not be a drug addict or a loony and you must not be blind or color-blind either.
But all that does not matter at all if you have the aim to become a militiaman and have appropriate money to pay for this. For example, my chief was 5.4 feet tall, whereas my height is 5.6 feet. When I put on high-heeled boots I was 10-15 cm higher than he was.
If you have finished going through the medical you have to pay (cajole) a great number of people. You have to pay the Head of the Department, Head of the Personnel Department, and many other people too. If you are a woman you will have to pay not only in cash. Fortunately, it did not concern me, as I was hired as civilian employee and they needed my computer skills.
At last you have become a militiaman. But time is flying and you want to be promoted. For that you need a person of high rank to promote. Suppose you haven't got such a person? Then you will have to do everything yourself. In this case you must have the ability to ask for yourself and have the skill to solve the problems of your superiors. And if you are a pretty girl you shouldn't "upset" you superior. Now you have got an idea of what kind of people work in Russian militia. Needless to say that many employees working in militia simply can not stay there for a long time because all that is very disgusting. You never know what to expect.
But it does not mean that all militiamen in Russia are so loathsome. There are many truly deserved, gallant and brave persons among them honestly performing their professional duty and laying down their lives in case of need.
