But movies told me that exposing the bad things to the public is supposed to end the bad things
They sort of did?
There have been a bunch of trials, and several countries changed their laws to prevent this exact form of money laundering.
The rich assholes then moved to different forms of money laundering.
Except the rich asshole who ordered the hit on Daphne Galizia, he's currently on trial for her murder, and for money laundering.

Campaign finance reform prevents serious reform from happening that could target the rich.
