Abstract/ Overview
Values are lasting beliefs and ideals of a person or a social group. They bind a society together; define what is important and worthwhile; and provide guidance on what is right versus the wrong. National values are beliefs of a nation guiding the attitudes, actions, and behaviour of its citizens. Principles of governance are normative standards that oblige the State to perform its functions in a manner that promotes the general well-being of the people.
