Iceland is in the 19th place for the most corruption in the world.
Recently, another scandal surfaced when the police arrested an Icelandic/Vietnamese restaurant king and sealed his chain of businesses, which include Wok on and Pho Vietnam resturants.
The restaurant king is accused of human trafficking and even slavery.
The government and the police have known for years that everything was not according to the rules at the restaurant chain, but now they have decided to clean up the company.
It is also thought-provoking that this police operation is being carried out right now when anti-foreigners are burying themselves in the political debate and legislation has been tightened in view of the presence of foreigners in the country.
The catering and tourism world in Iceland is known for being liberal with regulations and employee contracts, as it is largely run on foreign labor, so it would not be surprising that this issue stretched far and wide.
