Real integrity is doing the right thing, knowing that nobody's going to know whether you did it or not. - Oprah Winfrey

Jaycee Chan, the son of Jackie Chan was caught and retained recently by Beijing police on suspicion of accommodating suspected drug users, an official Xinhua news agency reported. Police seized more than 100g of cannabis from Chan’s house, in a swoop that also saw a Taiwanese actor known as Kai Ko detained on drug charges.  Jackie Chan has been a government “anti-drug ambassador” since 2009. Is he going to embrace integrity in his son’s case?
