When Western people set up a company in China, they must be aware of some ethical standards.Since China is becoming a key player in global industry, the Chinese demand respect and do not wish to be treated like children. In order to conceive their goal of worldwide success, they realize that it is necessary to decrease corruption, which is, according to university students, still present in many companies. In this case, when the company in China determines its ethical code, the Western founder should give this assignment to the Chinese people themselves. The Chinese have to develop the rules, which are based on Chinese philosophical views. There exist groups, f.e. "The Business and Organizational Ethics Partnership", that try to inform people more about these ethical standards. Starting from their 18 basic rules the organization even offers an opportunity to take classes in business ethics.
