Now the culture has changed. All levels have repeatedly issued strict requirements for honest recruitment and resolutely put an end to micro-corruption." 'When the phenomenon occurs, we are determined to The bad atmosphere has been completely reversed. I sincerely hope that everyone will actively cooperate and truly realize that you can serve as a soldier without inviting guests or giving gifts! Even if you have asked someone to coordinate before, you cannot give money or gifts to relevant personnel after you leave because of your previous 'promise'. . I think this kind of fulfillment of 'promise' is the way to be a good person. 'Being kind' is actually the biggest form of 'unkindness'! Because 'giving' and 'receiving' are both violations of laws and disciplines, which harm both others and ourselves! In order to be honest in recruiting, we must not only educate the recruiting staff not to accept gifts, but also educate the general public. Youth applicants and parents are advised not to give gifts as long as no one is invited! If you send us, no dishonest behavior will occur! Now and in the future, our superiors and we will increase the intensity of open and covert inspections. If any violations of regulations and disciplines are discovered, they will be severely punished!" Political Commissar Ma Xin's heartfelt words have won the hearts of young recruits many times.
