Every country needs its whistleblowers. They are crucial to a healthy society. The employee who, in the public interest, has the independence of judgement and the personal courage to challenge malpractice or illegality is a kind of public hero.

About This Quote

Whistleblowers, just like soldiers and police officers, serve and protect the public interest. Their courage and commitment to the truth far outshine that of their accusers. Without whistleblowers, the public interest is left unprotected. When government agencies fail to protect the public interest, it is not only those who work for those agencies who suffer; all of the people of the country are affected.
