I am not so sure, for example about Mexico, Russia and Japan. Mexico is almost a war zone, in Russia since the 90s the mafias have been becoming stronger due to the collusion with the state, even though they don't kill so much anymore as they did in the 90s because the most violent ones have been all whacked long ago, and in Japan, even though the street crime rate is considered low, the Yakuza isn't even illegal, it's no crime to be a member and there is no RICO or anything similar.
