Premier denounces work-shy officials
Print Edition
officials who ignore orders to reduce bureaucracy are little better than the corrupt cadres the government is trying to root out, says Premier Li Keqiang.
Li has repeatedly criticised officials for being slack and lazy in implementing Beijing鈥檚 policy directives as they kept their heads down to stay out of trouble during the sweeping anti-graft campaign.
In May the government sent out 11 investigation teams to 18 provinces and cities to ensure orders are being followed, and a report on progress was given to the State Council earlier this week.
鈥淭his investigation was a shove in the back鈥 for government departments, Li said at the meeting, according to a government statement released on Wednesday. 鈥淭he aim is to vigorously enforce policy implementation.鈥
While some examples of good practices were found, there were also many problems, including unused funds and land left idle, which, while the statement did not give details, were presumably supposed to have been used for projects.
鈥淗olding down a job without doing a stroke of work and accomplishing nothing is a typical example of official corruption, and these officials should be held responsible,鈥 Li said.
While administrative approvals for projects and other paperwork are supposed to have been simplified, Li said some localities were seeing a rise in bureaucracy.
鈥淎re they playing word games? We must resolutely investigate this,鈥 he added, according to the statement.
The investigation team had such success that this system should be made permanent and results made public, Li said.
鈥淲e must publicize examples of irresponsibility,鈥 he added.
