Campaign targets corruption in construction sector

   Date:2006/12/31

The construction sector is still the scene of frequent cases of bribery.

The Ministry of Construction, together with the Supreme People's Procuratorate, demonstrated their determination to combat corruption by making public 20 major cases of bribery in the construction sector.

Most of the cases involved government employees in charge of urban planning, project approval and evaluation of contractors' financial assessments.

Bribes come in all forms. It can be cash, gifts, consulting charges, or school fees for children. Corrupt officials abuse their power if they take bribes or make personal profits for others.

These cases not only disturb the market order of construction, real estate and city planning, but also harm national and public interests as a whole.

From January to July, China's procuratorial organs dealt with 1,608 corruption cases in the construction sector, about 26.31 per cent of the country's total.

The anti-bribery struggle in the construction sector is quite arduous.
