KUCHING: More programmes about integrity need to be done, especially for students, says Minister in the Chief Minister’s Office (Integrity and Ombudsman) Datuk Talib Zulpilip.
“Students need to be aware of this so that when they enter their working life, they will do the right thing and avoid corruption,” he said at the ‘Sarawak Youth Development: Integrity and Good Governance’ programme here yesterday.
Talib also mentioned that “as we are entering 2020 soon, at least we set a good example to other states that we are free from corruption.”
“Do not look at people with branded and expensive things and say, we want to follow their style. Do not take advantage of your position to have what others have.
“Be sincere in doing your job,” he advised.
Meanwhile, UniversitiTeknologi Mara (UiTM) Kota Samarahan deputy rector Associate Prof Dr Firdaus Abdullah hoped that the programme could benefit the students in really understanding the meaning of integrity before stepping into working life.
The programme involved Bachelor of Administrative Science and Policy Studies final year students.
