Integrity

I attended the Integrity Seminar organised by MBPJ this morning. The purpose of the Seminar is to raise awareness of the local government staff on integrity. It is commonly known that very few people able to understand well about integrity and value system. Some might be blurred in differentiating the can and cannot do as a government servant. For example, is it ok to accept a lunch invitation from someone who would like to show his gratitude for helping him? Is it right to accept festive gift such as moon cake during the celebration of Mid Autumn Festival or even a carton of mandarin orange during Chinese New Year? Is it right to not observing the code of integrity if the question of bread and butter involved?

All these are deliberated in the above Seminar. To me, if we have served faithfully and to the best of our capability without fear and favour as well as with no bad intention at all, then the question of lack of integrity will be a non issue.
