1. Definition

1.1. People referring to those that do things to benefit the nation/community in different ways

2. No

2.1. Government

2.1.1. The public should not bother about what they do in private because they are entitled to their own privacy. They are humans after all.

2.1.2. Evidence: Yaw Shin Leong was sacked on 14 Feb due to an accusation of a sex scandal. Despite his great significant contributions to the community at Hougang single member constituency (SMC), he was sacked just because of one mistake he made and it was mainly due to the public interest

2.1.3. Perhaps it could be a misunderstanding which we do not know and he has his limitations to reveal it as it could adverse controversies
