China admits corruption is very serious

A report by the Chinese government admits corruption is "very serious", saying officials have investigated over 240,000 cases in the past seven years including bribery and embezzelement. The report, released by China's state news agency, Xinhua, states the government are attempting to flush out corrupt citizens need to be more effective, but their efforts have "yielded notable results".

The document further warns of corruption within government, containing new regulations ordering government officials to report investment and income. It also praises the internet and the media for exposing corruption. In recent years China has taken an agressive stance on corruption, launching several campaigns against corrupt practices. An Chinese anti-corruption researcher told Xinhua the report showed "China has a more open and cooperative attitude toward the problem."

There have been several high profile cases of corruption in the country over the past several years; this year the highest ranking justice official in Chongqing, Wen Qiang, was executed after he was found to have accepted bribes and shielded criminal gangs, and in 2008 a powerful party boss was jailed for 18 years after he was found to have been involved in a pension fund scandal.

However, the report notes ridding corruption will not be easy. "Since the relevant mechanisms and systems are still incomplete, corruption persists, with some cases even involving huge sums of money," it states. "The situation in combating corruption is still very serious, and the tasks are still abundant."
