A Serious thing that they teach in Hwa Chong

Hi guys!Today,I'm going to touch on one of the topics that they take very seriously in Hwa Chong Institution.On Friday,14 of January,I read a handout that my Language Arts teacher gave to the class.Although the title was not plainly "integrity",the main point of the handout was integrity.It was titled "Families Against the Casino Threat in Singapore".The people signed a petition and gave it to the President of the Republic of Singapore.But before that,they deleted the names of those who signed the online petition but had a suspicious handphone number or address that did not exist.Much as they wanted as many signatures on the petition,they deleted unreliable signatures!Why?To uphold the value of integrity.In spite of knowing the casino threat in Singapore,I also support them in doing this.Why?For integrity.
Now why do I take integrity so seriously?It's because if someone lacks integrity and uses an inventor's invention and patents it under his name,even if it is not useful,it would be unfair to the inventor.Put yourself in the inventor's shoes or point of view.Would you get frustrated?I,for one,would.What about you?Please give your comments and suggestions.

  1. Totally agree! It not only makes you fustrated, maybe more on anger and disappointment.
