Zero tolerance for party cliques
Print Edition
POLITICAL discipline should be enhanced and factions within the Party that are organized for personal gain are “absolutely not tolerated,” a key meeting of China’s Communist Party was told.
“Despite a certain amount of control over undesirable work styles and corruption, the entire Party should keep its cool in the still arduous and complicated anti-graft fight,” said a statement released yesterday after a meeting of the Political Bureau of the Party Central Committee. “Discipline should be put in a more prominent position so as to strengthen restraints on Party officials and members through strict and clear rules.”
It added: “Organizing cliques within the Party to run personal businesses is absolutely not tolerated.”
The statement urged maintaining a “high-voltage” crackdown to stem undesirable work styles and corruption, calling on tenacity and patience for a long-term campaign.
“For those violating discipline despite the crackdown, violators must be punished, and the responsibilities of their leaders should also be pursued,” it said.
It urged disciplinary inspection bodies to foster a team of officials who are “brave, loyal and clean-handed” for the anti-graft campaign.
The meeting also reviewed a guideline on building a socialist consultative democracy. The statement said the Party will improve such a system to better collect public opinion and ensure democratic decision-making.
Also reviewed was a document on improving the Party’s guidance on various groups such as the Communist Youth League and All-China Women’s Federation, organizations are seen as a crucial link for the Party to maintain a connection with specific groups, such as women, artists, disabled people and children.
