Stop money splurges
The masses should have the right to know exactly how officials have spent government money and abusers should be held accountable, says an article on the website of China Youth Daily. Following is an except:
A netizen recently exposed online the lavish spending by officials on entertainment in a prefecture-level city of Hunan province. According to the exposed payment list, the head of the local television and radio administration, for example, spent almost 10,000 yuan alone on a working day in KTV, massage and dining.
It reminds us of another big splash of government money in Huainan, Anhui province, where officials purchased fitness center memberships with government funds. Shortly after the exposure by netizens, the memberships were canceled.
