When the Chinese decided to live in peace, they built the great Wall of China. They thought that no one could climb it because of its height. However, in the 100 years after its construction, the Chinese were invaded 3 times more. Enemy infantry soldiers never had the need to climb or penetrate the wall. They always just bribed the guards and got in through the gates.
The Chinese had built high and thick walls; but they hadn't built the character of the wall guards.
China has put in place a system called the "Social Credit Score" to address trustworthiness today of its people:
China's social credit system gives individuals, businesses, and government entities a credit score based on their trustworthiness. A bad credit score comes with penalties like reduced access to credit and fewer business opportunities.
China's social credit system expands that idea to all aspects of life, judging citizens' behavior and trustworthiness. Caught jaywalking, don't pay a court bill, play your music too loud on the train — you could lose certain rights, such as booking a flight or train ticket.
