Beijing: As part of
the government's efforts to promote integrity among civil
servants, a four-book series on moral issues faced by officials
was released for sale in Beijing Monday.
The first publication on the topic in China, the series embodies
the result of research conducted by experts from the Beijing
Academy of Social Sciences, Xinhua reported.
The books speak about the morality of officials through Chinese
history as well as the importance of raising officials' moral
standards, said an official with the Beijing Commission for
Discipline Inspection.
The prologue of the book series says the major difference between
good and bad officials simply lies in whether they perform their
duty with a conscience.
The books say a moral official in modern China should always serve
the people as well as be loyal, pragmatic, fair-minded and
incorruptible, while always improving oneself.
