China is more than sloping in both education and morality.

The recently-sparked Jun Tang 's false doctorate scandal refuses to die down as more hidden faking stories are slowly and solidly surfaced. Whereas, repercussion contagious over elites and tycoons are busy revising their previous claims about inflated academic credentials and achievements.

Undoubtedly, these high-end elites and tycoons are powerful Chinese government officials, legal lawyers, business leaders, university professors, and professionals by a large. Can’t image how they had once or often traced the same path leading to the same glory stories of academic peak as Jun Tang did. Some of them are deeply regrettable for untrustworthy, while a few others are insistent that they had done nothing wrong.

Tang is embraced most by his countless claims in best-selling autobiography “My Success Can Be Replicate”, namely, 《我的成功可以复制》. It is misleading in general nevertheless, since no one’s success can be easily replicated except failure. Particularly in his case, the claim of a Caltech doctorate is completely exaggerated.

Can people follow him for the success?

Is China as a whole turning into something of a diploma mill? Is the overheated supply chain in China no longer the real estate property, nothing but the academic degrees manufacturing?

Undeniably, China has been under world’s tremendous pressure to fight against its broken reputation system, rather than right now when Jun Tang's scandal was suddenly erupted. China for long is widely accused of loose control for piracy and copyrights violation rampant in the global market of fake manufactured goods: everything from shoes, watches, computers, modules, to brands, boutique accessories, automobiles, parts, etc.

To earn back the world’s confidence, China has no way but to start from inside. For example, the academic degrees have to be strictly controlled and issued by the credible authorities that neither power conquers it nor price buys it.

Sadly, despite Tang's absolute fraud of credentials, defense of his way made to the career peak as understandable is not a minority. Unsurprisingly, some of the Chinese got lost as to figure what is gold from sand, where the distinction between capability and academia should stand. Tang’s approach till today is credited by someone as a model of self-made successful entrepreneur and inspirational godfather for a generation of Chinese youngsters.

Goes without saying that the moral standard in China is clearly different from the very foundation of what the most of the world pursue and follow. If Tang’s scandal had happened in US, Japan or European countries, an outcome would have been his immediate resignation followed by a thorough investigation and perhaps a civil lawsuit as filed from investors into the involved listed companies, such as Shangda.

However, the investigation won't happen in China, as most people have already expected, in the sense that the scandal will get away without letting Tang to pay any price. That is why as of today Jun Tang refuses to admit any wrong doing but counter-attack others for jealousy, unfairness and fabrication. Believe or not.

So doing, how can China morally lead the world?
