Anti-graft message to families

CHINESE energy officials must educate their families to shun corruption, China’s energy administration said yesterday, aiming at the practice of corrupt officials stashing ill-gotten gains with relatives.

A crackdown on state-owned enterprises and government officials with ties to the energy industry has been central to the nationwide sweeping campaign against graft.

“We require that Party members and cadres not only be strict with themselves, but also strengthen education and restraint of their spouses and children to prevent relatives from suffering setbacks and committing errors,” the National Energy Administration said in a notice.

Government investigations in the energy sector have felled senior officials in the administration as well as the state-owned China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC).

China’s anti-graft watchdog said last month it had launched a series of investigations into state-owned firms including China Petrochemical Corp, Asia’s largest oil refiner.

The crackdown has ensnared Zhou Yongkang, the former chief of domestic security and previously an oil industry man, as well as Jiang Jiemin, former head of CNPC, the parent of PetroChina Co Ltd.
