Hunting monster-sized 'flies'

Three groups of local officials at grassroots and village heads should also be targeted in the fight against corruption

Currency notes worth 120 million yuan ($19.6 million), 37 kilograms of gold and documents on the ownership of 68 houses. These were found by investigators in the house of Ma Chaoqun, manager of a State-owned water company branch in Qinhuangdao, Hebei province of North China.

Ma is not a "tiger", or high-ranking corrupt official. But he is not a mere "fly", or lower-level corrupt official either.
