The federal government is looking into a bribery scheme that involved Microsoft and some other partners in other parts of the world such as China, Italy and Romania. Some of the claims are such as the company relationship with resellers and consultants in Romania and Italy “Like other large companies with operations around the world we sometimes receive allegations about potential misconduct by employees or business partners and we investigate them fully regardless of the source,” John Frank, Microsoft’s vice president and deputy general counsel, said in a statement. “We also invest heavily in proactive training, monitoring and audits to ensure our business operations around the world meet the highest legal and ethical standards” says Microsoft “In a company of our size, allegations of this nature will be made from time to time,” Microsoft’s Frank wrote in his blog post. “It is also possible there will sometimes be individual employees or business partners who violate our policies and break the law. In a community of 98,000 people and 640,000 partners, it isn’t possible to say there will never be wrongdoing. Our responsibility is to take steps to train our employees, and to build systems to prevent and detect violations, and when we receive allegations, to investigate them fully and take appropriate action.”

Norwegian authorities say that the methods of a film-maker, Jason Roberts, who shot a BBC documentary about polar bears, disturbed the wild animals, and may fine him up to £5,700. He filmed polar bears in clear plastic hide when making The Polar Bear Family and Me. The Svalbard islands’ deputy governor said that when looking at the footage it looked “like they are disturbing the animals,” specifically when a bear is seen attacking the box with Buchanan inside.

However, Mr. Roberts claims that for the past twenty-two years he worked with polar bears, and he “never bothered, disturbed or injured bears.” Additionally, he would not accept the fine.

A BBC spokesperson said: “We are aware of these concerns, but as they refer to on-going discussions between the parties in Norway it would not be appropriate to comment further at this stage.”
