Supervisers also responsible

Electricity, crude oil, irrigation... one after another, corruption has been discovered in the local authorities governing natural resources. Such corruption is often hidden under the cover of higher threshold and technology qualities, calling for stricter supervision. Insiders say that a whole chain of corruption formed in Jiujiang, with professional agents purchasing project permits from officials and selling them to construction corporations. Dare anybody trust the quality of irrigation projects constructed this way?

Beijing Times, Sept 15

China has the second-largest GDP in the world, which brings large quantities of public investment. However, large quantities of corruption are also hidden in the investment, which has caused tragedies such as bridges that survive only one year. China needs to clean its GDP of corruption and make economic growth truly benefit the people.
