Top court's spokesman opens blog

China's prolific Internet users, hell bent on exposing corruption in government functioning, have another reason to smile.

Their consistency in blowing the whistle on corrupt officials has even encouraged the spokesman of the country's top court to open his own blog, with the sole intention of "connecting with the public".

"Anyone and everyone is welcome to leave messages on my blog. I will try hard to be a trustworthy and respectable spokesman," read the Supreme People's Court (SPC) spokesman Sun Jungong's web page, http://sunjungong.home.news.cn/blog, which popped up on the Internet yesterday.
