The head of China has initiated a campaign to fight the drawbacks of the Chinese society and replace them for a social feeling of nobility and shame. Hu Jintao voiced the do’s and dont’s of an ordinary Chinese official.

Thus, the list of noble and disgraceful actions comprises 8 clauses, namely:

• Love your country; do not cause damage to it.
• Serve your people; do not render it bad services.
• Indulge in science; reject ignorance.
• Work hard; do not be slothful.
• Be united, help each other; do not profit from others.
• Be sincere, so that you can be trusted; do not exploit ethics and morals for your own benefit;
• Be disciplined and law-abiding; do not allow for chaos and anarchy;
• Be open-hearted, make efforts; do not delve in luxury and self-satisfaction.

The professor of philosophy Han Qingxiang notes that some people cannot differentiate between the good and the evil any more. State officials have always occupied a special position in the Chinese society and enjoyed numerous privileges (both provided by the law and even defying it). “Despite the fact, that most of them are well-disciplined, a certain number of officials, holding the posts of extreme importance does not serve their people and their country, - notes the professor. – They indulge in satisfying their own needs, which has tarnished social scope and atmosphere.”

The Organisational Department of the Communist Party has resolved to use the list of the allowed and the interdicted as a criterion for appointing diligent and talented people to official positions. The representatives of the Communist party are sure that the measure will favourably influence not only the system of official institutions, but also the society as a whole. The list, thus, has turned into certain moral standards for appraising the work, the conduct and the capacities of Chinese civil servants.

Thus, the largest Communist party in the world is making efforts to restore its image amid public discontent with corruption and moral unruliness of Chinese officials.
