CHINA-INTERNAL: ANTI-CORRUPTION CAMPAIGN

The eople's Daily on January 25, 2018 cited a Legal Daily report to say that 60 days after the 19th Party Congress, seven centrally managed cadres (中管干部), including National Energy Administration Deputy Head Wang Xiaolin and former Propaganda Department Deputy Head Lu Wei (鲁炜), had been put under investigation. Deputy Director of Research Centre for Government Integrity Building at Peking University Zhuang Deshui (庄德水) said this demonstrates the Central Committee’s determination on anti-corruption. “Firmly curbing the increase in corruption, gradually dissolving existing corruption, and consolidating an overwhelming posture for anti-corruption development” will be the new trend for the future.

According to the Central Discipline Inspection Commission (CDIC), 440 Party cadres above the provincial and ministerial level and other centrally managed cadres were put under investigation in the past five years. The recently released Report on Combating Corruption and Upholding Integrity in China No. 7 (中国反腐倡廉建设报告No.7) shows that , 208,306 duty-related criminals were investigated throughout the disciplinary inspection units between 2013 to 2016 . The Report suggested placing high attention on corruptive “blind spots” in social organizations, solving corruption caused by unequal distribution of public goods, and deepening the reform of the disciplinary inspection system.
