The so-called honesty education is to create a social atmosphere of honesty, integrity and law-abiding through honesty education for citizens, so as to achieve the purpose of regulating and restraining individual behavior.

Honesty, a China word, first appeared in Qu Yuan's "The Soul of Chu Ci", a great poet in the Warring States Period: "I am young and clean, and I am loyal." Wang Yi, a famous scholar in the Eastern Han Dynasty, commented in The Songs of the South: "Don't be honest, don't be dirty, be clean", that is, don't accept money and gifts from others, and don't let your innocent character be defiled. This is honesty.
