So, we're all familiar with the concept of NGOs. But this concept has recently undergone a radiation event, and has spawned an increasingly abstruse variety of subgenres:
- INGO: international non-governmental organization
- GONGO: government organized NGO
- GRINGO: government regulated and initiated NGO
- QUANGO: quasi-autonomous NGO
- PANGO: party affiliated NGO
- RONGO: retired officials NGO
- DONGO: donor-organized NGO
- DINGO: donor international NGO
- CONGO: co-opted NGO
- BINGOs: business interest NGOs
- BONGOs: business-organized NGOs
- and finally, my personal favorite... MANGO: a mafia-organized/operated NGO
