  It is so arbitrary, everyone has their own set of morals,codes and principals there is no such thing as a standard set of morality codes, even people pick and choose from religious scriptures on what they want to adhere to and what they want to ignore.

  civics and moral education is a waste of MOE's resources. I can also easily be a C&M teacher.

  Very often ppl teach 'Dao De Education', but one should have a clear understanding. Benefitting oneself is 'Dao', benefitting others is 'De', so 'Dao De' simplest terms to put means benefitting oneself and others. As long as your thoughts, speech, actions, have Dao De, then that is the best.
  
  Ultimately you dont have to adhere a code of conduct if as long as you do not harm oneself and others or cause sufferings. As long as things that you do is benefitting yourself and others it is "moral".
