COMMITMENT TO PUBLIC INTEREST

How can you show your commitment to public interest?
As an individual and future civil servant, showing commitment to public interest is like
showing how you value, respect and love your work. First, when it comes to the usage of office
supplies; I must use office supplies efficiently and avoid wastage of it. Like for instance, if I can
recycle it, why not, to help minimize the government spending on supplies. Second, honesty is
the best policy, especially with the funds in the office. Government fund should be preserved and
be budgeted efficiently and will never be used in corruptions and for personal intentions. Even if
you borrow some funds for your personal consumption, it is considered as an indirect corruption
that might lead to serious corruption. Last, dedication to work is very important, organizing the
agenda and work for the day helps me to have smooth flow of output of whatever reports needed.
Some would say: “To change the ways of doings of others, you must first begin with yourself.”
Knowing and understanding this, commitment to public interest would be a great start if I want
to make an impact.
