Chinese integrity (speech)
The sky-high tree stands tall, relying on the roots of the earth's silent support; clouds and high buildings imposing, from the heavy and hard cornerstone of the speechless support; then, people, and by what to support the incomparable wisdom of life? That is - integrity!
Honesty, is to adhere to the temperament and integrity; to adhere to the integrity, is to adhere to the fundamentals of human beings.
In traditional Chinese culture, honesty is first of all an ethical category, the so-called sincerity of the letter, the letter of sincerity, "Shuowen Jiezi" on the "sincerity", "letter" of the two words of the mutual interpretation of honesty and trustworthiness of the intrinsic link. Honesty and trustworthiness have always been the fine tradition of the Chinese nation. And China is a country with a long history of civilization, China should have full confidence in this fine tradition from generation to generation. China's integrity has gone through the history, into the modern era, and is bound to the future!
However, when I was looking at China's integrity, my vision was gradually blurred by the shocking news, and my heart was gradually weighed down by a group of shocking cases. From fake cigarettes, fake alcohol, fake diplomas, to fake accounts, fake certificates, fake reports; from the malicious consumption of ordinary people overdraft, to the false performance projects of government officials, from the people's livelihood from the poisoned rice, tainted wine, tainted milk powder, to the impact of industry and finance of the fund of the shady, stock market counterfeiting, securities scam, we can also hear the fake ball, black whistles, stimulants, plagiarized thesis, academic misconduct ... ... ...All these and more. The lack of integrity as the plague spreads, the great China seems to have become a full of falsehoods, fraud, forgery of the dye tank! Driven by the purpose of utilitarianism, all areas of social life, will be born out of the lack of integrity of the ugly and sinful.
Take a look at the integrity of our college students, according to a recent survey by the Donghua University Youth League Committee, integrity is only a kind of "idealism" of college students, not their actual behavior. Because of their own factors and education
Education factor awareness as well as social system problems, college students' sense of honesty and behavior are far from each other.
Survey shows that 88.39% of students believe that integrity in today's society is very important, the significance of integrity, the value can not be ignored, but in the actual behavior can not do this. It is mainly manifested in two aspects, the first is to pay back the loan, college graduates in a considerable portion of the loan will not pay back the loan or intentionally defaulted on the loan; the second is the examination, although the students signed a "do not cheat" commitment, but once to the examination there will be some people choose to take the risk. In addition, many students admitted that they have done the class on behalf of others to sign in, late absenteeism, homework paper plagiarism, resume flooding and other dishonest behavior.
At the same time, 28.57% of the students explicitly stated that the word "integrity" is only a pure ideal, which is difficult to be practiced, for example, in the face of fierce competition in the society, in order to stand out from the crowd of job-seekers and to get a good job, they unconsciously exaggerate their resumes and falsify awards, etc. Although in their subjective intention, they have no intention to do so, but they are willing to do so. Although in their subjective intention they feel that integrity is important, social competition forces them to choose to speculate.
What is the reason for the lack of integrity behavior, the survey also specifically perspective on the mentality of college students, summarized the main reasons:
There are 73.21% of the students believe that the main reason for the loss of integrity is the growth of money worship and egoism, in front of the huge material interests, integrity sometimes seems to become a burden, far less important than the monetary benefits.
Fifty-eight point four percent of the students thought that the "herd mentality" was the reason for their lack of integrity, and that many of them could not distinguish between right and wrong with a cool head, but rather followed the trend of others. So when they see others cheating or watering down their resumes, they often follow suit; they even think that since everyone else is doing it, they won't get a better return on their honesty.
There are also some students who believe that the lack of integrity is related to the dilution of integrity education. Because honesty is considered by most people as a traditional virtue, there is no need to carry out systematic education, in fact, the thinking of our college students is very easy to be swayed by the outside world.
From a deeper perspective, the emergence of credibility and credit crisis is not an accidental phenomenon, but has profound historical and cultural reasons. Although honesty is one of the virtues of the Chinese nation, it has not become a universal national consciousness due to the historical reasons of social development. On the one hand, the long-term feudal rule has formed a social consciousness that takes the native interest as the social standard. Under the domination of this consciousness, whatever is in the best interest is right, and the principle of equality and mutual benefit has never become the mainstream consciousness of the people. On the other hand, for thousands of years, the long-term rule of man society, the prevalence of the will of the governor, the will of the patriarch, coupled with the long-term agricultural economy, the free and loose small farmer's consciousness permeates the political, economic and cultural fields, and did not form the national consciousness of the rules of the road.
Famous economists Wu Jinglian and Li Yining, in denouncing the social status quo of the lack of integrity, exclaimed: the collapse of a national integrity system will not only bring damage to the national economy and national consumption, but also form a far-reaching impact on the entire social system; it will certainly result in the indifference of human feelings, the distortion of human nature, and the degradation of morality! French Alexandre Dumas also said, "When honesty disappears, flesh has no life!"
All kinds of history have proved that: people who do not speak credibility is no future people, do not speak credibility of the nation is the degeneration of the nation, do not speak credibility of the society is chaotic society, do not speak credibility of the country is no hope of the country.
Lack of integrity, the loss of our soul! Lack of integrity, the country will be no country!
China calls for integrity! China needs integrity! China must be honest!
