‘Dissatisfied’ anti-graft chief orders officials to ramp up corruption crackdowns
Wang Qishan has urged all central government departments and state-owned companies and financial institutions to strengthen efforts to combat graft, signalling his dissatisfaction with their current campaigns.
The mainland's top anti-corruption official, Wang Qishan, has urged all central government departments and state-owned companies and financial institutions to strengthen efforts to combat graft, signalling his dissatisfaction with their current campaigns.
Wang has chaired four meetings on anti-corruption with the top leaders of these departments and companies in the past week, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection said on its website yesterday.
Wang said that they must protect the Communist Party's image and seek to increase rather than decrease its credibility.
"Don't forget your party position and responsibilities," Wang said, urging them to do more than "pay attention to business".
He also pledged to punish officials who failed to closely supervise and control the conduct of their staff.
Anti-corruption officials working within government departments and state companies should only concentrate on this work and not be sidetracked by other duties, Wang said.
