Watchdog warns of graft acts ahead of holidays
China's top anti-graft watchdog will attach great importance to investigating public officers who violate the Party's eight-point frugality code during the Mid-Autumn Festival from Sept 13 to 15 and National Day holidays from Oct 1 to Oct 7.
With the two holidays approaching, the anti-graft department at each level will take every precaution and strengthen education for the officials to prevent them from violating the disciplines of the Communist Party of China or laws, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection of the CPC Central Committee said in a statement on Tuesday.
"Once we discover such cases, we will immediately investigate the involved officials and expose their alleged corruption cases in a timely manner to warn others, securing a clean atmosphere to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China," the statement said.
