CHINA-INTERNAL: WEALTHY NPC/CPPCC DELEGATES

 The latest Hurun Report, released early in March 2015, reported that among the 1,271 richest Chinese people tracked by the Hurun Report, a record 203 -- or more than one in seven -- are delegates to the NPC or CPPCC.  It disclosed too that the combined net worth of Chinese delegates to the NPC/CPPCC totalled US$ 436.8 billion and that 18 of the Delegates have a net wealth greater than all 535 members of Congress, President Obama's cabinet and nine Supreme Court judges combined. Of them, 106 are National People's Congress (NPC) Deputies and 97 are Delegates to the CPPCC, together accounting for 4%  of the 5,200 delegates in the two highest bodies of the People's Republic of China (PRC).
