On his recent out-of-town trip, he was accompanied by Hassan, his supervisor, and friend. While discussing the reimbursement for the trip, Hassan told him to increase the number of his cab fares since the driver only stamped the receipt letting them fill out the amount themselves. As Mamat hesitated, Hassan told him “I’ve been with the company for more than six years, I should know what’s okay to do”. As Mamat was filling out his claim form, he knew if he did pad the cab fares, his total would conflict with Hassan’s.   1) What courses of action are open to Mamat?
