Eight Do’s and Eight Don’ts Love, do not harm the motherland. Serve, don’t disserve the people. Uphold science. don’t be ignorant and unenlightened. Work hard. don’t be lazy and hate work. Be united and help each other. don’t gain benefits at the expense of others. Be honest and trustworthy, not profit-mongering at the expense of your values. Be disciplined and law-abiding instead of chaotic and lawless. Know plain living and hard struggle. do not wallow in luxuries and pleasures.
