Chengguan and police should be separate bodies

China Daily | Updated: 2010-07-30 07:49

It is reported that an official from the bureau of public security in the capital city will also take on the post of chengguan chief. It will be the first time that a police officer has been employed as the bureau director of the chengguan at the same time as he is still a serving policeman.

It does not mean that chengguan - urban management and security officers - will be incorporated into the police department, but it will make the public worry that chengguan officers may be about to get more of the powers that have in the past been bestowed upon police officers.

In fact, in the cities of Wuhan, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, there have been experiments to make chengguan shoulder some of the duties of policemen. But the feedback has always been negative.
