DEAR EDITOR,
A Reuters story caught my attention which I thought of sharing with readers. It has to do with anti-corruption measures taken by Chinese authorities, which included a ban on advertisements for expensive gifts such as watches and jewellery as part of a push by the government to crackdown on extravagance and waste.
Such advertisements, officials felt, ‘publicized incorrect values and helped create a bad social ethos’. Only recently, the Chinese government banned civil servants from splurging on boozy banquets and fancy cars and from accepting costly gifts.
