In this talent show, it doesn鈥檛 matter if you can sing or dance, the winner just has to be honest and good at their job. It鈥檚 called Integrity Idol and the aim is to 鈥渘ame and fame鈥� honest government workers - people who reject corruption and refuse to take bribes. The idea is that this creates positive role models to change society for the better.
The competition is being run in seven countries around the world. Hundreds of candidates are found from each country, a panel of judges choses the five best, and the public votes on the winner.
World Hacks visits the final of the competition in Nepal and asks what difference this approach can make.
