Do you pay a tip at restaurants? You can't get any kind of Government service in a lot of these countries without paying off. Every bureaucrat has their hand out. It leads to a degree of corruption that is unacceptable, IMO. If you want to consider it "tips," you open the door to corruption. You will see it just over the border in every little transaction, from getting out of a traffic ticket to needing a any kind of paper from a Mexican Government Official. This is one of the leading reasons for contempt by American tourists for Foreign countries.
