Their selection was announced in the 'Bicara Integriti Nasional 2015' programme that took place today, as they were described as having high integrity in conducting their duty and responsibility.

The special award was presented by Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Datuk Paul Low Seng Kuan and received by their respective family members, namely Kevin's youngest brother, Datuk Richard Morais and Shaharuddin's wife, Datin Rahimah Ibrahim.

Earlier a video on the two individuals were screened in the Integrity Auditorium, Integrity Institute of Malaysia which was filled by audience attending the programme.

Integrity Institute of Malaysia also condemned the tragic murders of Kevin and Shaharuddin, who were described as individuals with integrity and trust in discharging their duties.

Speaking to reporters after attending the programme, Richard said his late brother was indeed a committed and firm person in performing his duties during his lifetime.

"I am proud to receive this award on his behalf and I hope he (Kevin) can become a role model to many," he said.

As for Rahimah, she said she was grateful for the recognition given to her husband and hoped it could become a motivation for her and their children to go on with their lives.

"His loss is greatly felt and he (Shaharuddin) always reminded us to perform our duties with integrity and trust," he said.
