Charity considers ways to restore credibility

BEIJING - In its latest effort to regain credibility after a slew of corruption and malpractice scandals, the Red Cross Society of China (RCSC) is said to be finalizing guidelines for any future cooperation with companies.

Commentators have speculated that the proposed guidelines will provide a framework for cooperation between charity organizations and their corporate partners, recommending clear boundaries be established, risks avoided and transparent supervision implemented.

The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, based in Geneva, Switzerland, recently sent a lengthy guidance document to the RCSC, Wang Rupeng, secretary-general of the organization told Oriental Morning Post.
