Gao, 51, is from Yunnan and has held a series of government positions there, including as mayor of Yuxi, another city in the province, according to his official biography.

President Xi Jinping has declared war on corruption at all levels in China, vowing to go after powerful “tigers” and lowly “flies.” Scores of senior officials have been brought down by the campaign, including former security chief Zhou Yongkang.

Yunnan, a strategically important province for China, on the borders of Myanmar, Laos, Vietnam, is emerging as the latest front in Xi’s campaign against deep-seated graft.

Last month, Qiu He, deputy head of the Party in Yunnan, was put under investigation, while Bai Enpei, Yunnan’s former Party chief, was accused this year of accepting bribes.
