Answer
Strategy 2, because it builds sustainable relationships based on trust
Reason — Ethical public relations focuses on long-term reputation management rather than short-term gains. Transparency in communication, social responsibility, and balancing stakeholder interests help build trust and credibility with stakeholders. Exaggerated and untrue propaganda for short-term image causes irreparable damage to the reputation of a business in the long run.
