Corrupt up-and-comers can't hide

Hunting down Party officials who hold key positions and have a possibility of promotion but continue to involve themselves in corrupt activities remains the top priority of China's anti-corruption campaign now and in the future, a senior official of China's top anti-graft body said on Thursday.

The emphasis will be especially on Party officials who are involved in political and economic corruption at the same time, said Yang Xiaodu, deputy secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.

"An overwhelming momentum in fighting corruption has been created during the past five years. We now need to seize a crushing victory," Yang said at a news conference on the sidelines of the 19th CPC National Congress.
