China’s War on Corruption #7: Imagine the death sentence for CitiBank bigwigs; prison for governors and heads of aviation companies, and mass arrest of telecom fraudsters. You can’t in the West. So, savor it vicariously in China! Radio Sinoland 250422

Pictured above: high-level banker Zhang Hongli is a dead man for corruption. Do Western banksters get away with stealing billions and ruining the lives of milions? Of course! Not in China. Anyway, close your eyes and imagine Jamie Dimon on that stand. Delicious!

Overview

Anti-corruption

    1. When Xi took the helm in 2013, the country suffered from a deep-rooted severe corruption problem at all levels. Corruption was named as the single most critical issue facing the country. Most citizens were deeply frustrated and lost much faith in the government and the party. Many left the country including this author.
    2. Xi has run the longest anti-corruption campaign in Chinese history (ongoing to this day). In his first 5 years, over 1 million officials from national to local government, state-owned companies, banks, and military were prosecuted and punished. This included over 300 vice minister level and above officials out of roughly 2000 in total: 1 member of the Poliburo Standing committee (same offical rank as Xi), 2 vice chairmen of the Central Military Commission (the most senior military posts after Xi himself as commander in chief), 7 cabinet ministers (including the Railway Minister who was sentenced to death).
    3. More vice-minister and above level officials were removed and prosecuted in the 5 years than the previous 60 combined.
    4. The anti-corruption drive continues to this day. In the last 12 months, the foreign minister, 2 defence ministers (the incumbent and his predecessor), 9 generals in the PLA Rocket Force, numerous SOE CEOs, senior bankers, hospital administrators, etc. have been removed for corruption.
    5. For the average citizen, the issue has changed from their biggest concern to the one with highest satisfaction over government work in the last decade.

Report #7

 

Comment: no judicial system is perfect and none of them are impartial. However, China is constantly reviewing their judiciary. It goes back 2,000 years. If a judge sentenced someone with the death penalty and it was later discovered the executed was innocent, guess what happened? The judge got executed! It’s called accountability.

1-China cracks down on ‘illegal’ investigations targeting private business

Supreme People’s Procuratorate report cites 6,500 ‘correct law enforcement’ directives and withdrawal of 400 ‘improperly filed’ cases last year

https://www.scmp.com/news/china/politics/article/3298556/china-cracks-down-illegal-investigations-targeting-private-business

Comment: Chinese are very trusting, because on a daily basis, society is very honest, something I’ve reported on many times. This makes online and telephone fraud very profitable for the bad guys. There are banners and signs all over China, including Taiwan Province that warn the public about telecom fraud, but ancient Confucist habits die hard and make for many guillible citizens.

2-Senior officials from China, Thailand, Myanmar arrive in Myawaddy in joint efforts to combat telecom fraud

https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202502/1328568.shtml

 

Comment: all over the world, spy agencies are looking for people who are willing to commit treason against their homelands. China is no different and its Ministry of State Security (MSS) has the job of finding and arresting them for trial.

3-China alleges former soldier shared secrets of troops, weapons with foreign spy agency

Ministry of State Security says accused was discharged from military due to disciplinary issues and has ‘certain ability for counter-surveillance’

https://www.scmp.com/news/china/politics/article/3299127/china-alleges-military-veteran-shared-secrets-troops-weapons-foreign-agencies

 

Comment: with tens of millions of Mainlanders and Hongkongers crossing the border at Shenzhen each year, the opportunities for telecom fraud are ripe, and the battle to stop it is neverending.

4-Political advisor from HK to submit proposal on combatting cross-border telecom fraud

https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202502/1328653.shtml

 

Comment: all these telecom fraud cases are closely followed by the Chinese public, and Baba Beijing wants to reassure them they are working overtime to crush it.

5-First trial of Ming family suspected of telecom frauds in northern Myanmar held in Zhejiang

https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202502/1328727.shtml

 

Comment: how many Westerners would like to see a few thousand banksters get a bullet in the back of the head? The Chinese demand it and Baba Beijing delivers the goods. ICBC is the world’s biggest bank and this offered Zhang Hongli no protection.

6-Former ICBC executive gets death sentence with reprieve for taking US$24 million in bribes

Zhang Hongli, who was vice-president of the state-owned bank, accepted bribes in exchange for help with loan financing and securing jobs

https://www.scmp.com/news/china/politics/article/3299436/former-icbc-executive-gets-death-sentence-reprieve-taking-us24-million-bribes

 

Comment: 200 fraudsters are going to be made and example of, in the eyes of the Chinese people, and the fight has to mean international cooperation.

7-200 Chinese fraud suspects repatriated to Nanjing from Myanmar via Thailand, marking milestone in multinational crackdown

https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202502/1328781.shtml

 

Comment: Baba Beijing wants the citizens to know that the fight against corruption and fraud is never going to stop. What does the West do? Next to nothing. There are almost never any consequences and accountabiliy.

8-More telecom fraud suspects expected to be repatriated to China in batches: Chinese FM

https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202502/1328847.shtml

 

Comment: Jiang Chaoling is like a state or provincial governor in the West and he’s going down.

9-Chinese provincial boss fired over Covid response facing corruption probe

Jiang Chaoliang, who was dismissed as Hubei party boss at the start of Wuhan outbreak, also spent years in the financial sector

https://www.scmp.com/news/china/politics/article/3299744/chinese-provincial-boss-fired-over-botched-covid-response-facing-corruption-probe

 

Comment: going after Tan Ruisong is like taking down the CEO of Rayethon or Boeing. Will this ever happen in the West? You already know the answer.

10-Tan Ruisong, ex-boss of Chinese aircraft giant AVIC, expelled from Communist Party

Former head of company behind China’s latest generation stealth fighter jet accused of taking ‘huge amount’ of bribes
