　　35 leading cadres voluntarily surrendered

　　The psychological deterrent effect is increasingly prominent

　　On December 24, 2020, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and State Supervision Commission website released a message that Ma Linkun, the former vice president of Fuwai Cardiovascular Hospital in Yunnan Province, was under review and investigation.

　　It is worth noting that in the briefing to Ma Linkun, there were a few more words, that is, "has taken the initiative to surrender."

　　Ma Linkun, a native of Kunming, Yunnan, has been working in the medical system. He used to be the vice president of the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical College.

　　In 2012, with the approval of the Ministry of Education, Kunming Medical College was renamed Kunming Medical University, and Ma Linkun served as the deputy secretary and dean of the Party Committee of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University and the Second Clinical Medical School, and was clearly at the deputy department level.

　　In August 2017, Ma Linkun was transferred to the vice president of Fuwai Cardiovascular Hospital in Yunnan Province. He was removed from the position of vice president in May 2020, when he was already 60 years old.

　　According to the notified information, the first leading cadre to voluntarily surrender in 2020 is Wang Zhenqing, former member of the Standing Committee of the Sanmenxia Municipal Party Committee of Henan Province, and the notification time is April 30, 2020.

　　Wang Zhenqing, a native of Mianchi, Henan, served as the head of Lushi County, Secretary of Lushi County Party Committee, and Deputy Mayor of Sanmenxia City.

　　Prior to this, in November 2017, Wang Zhenqing was given an administrative demerit penalty in accordance with the management authority of the cadres due to ecological damage in the Sanmenxia section of the Yellow River Wetland Nature Reserve.

　　According to the notified information, the first central management cadre to voluntarily surrender in 2020 is Wen Guodong, the former deputy governor of Qinghai Province, the former secretary of the Haixi Prefecture Committee, and the former secretary of the Party Working Committee of the Qaidam Circular Economy Pilot Zone.

　　Wen Guodong was born in August 1969, and his career has been in Qinghai.

In July 2020, Wen Guodong was promoted to deputy governor of Qinghai Province and continued to serve as secretary of the Haixi Prefecture Party Committee.

In September 2020, Wen Guodong took the initiative to surrender.

　　On January 4, 2021, the website of the State Supervision Commission of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection issued a notification to Wen Guodong, saying that he had lost the party’s ideals, beliefs and purposes, had perfunctorily made a different set of decisions and arrangements for the Party Central Committee, and even “relied on coal. "Eating coal", engaging in the exchange of interests with illegal private business owners, acting as a "protective umbrella" for illegal coal mining, resulting in the problem of illegal coal mining in the Muli mining area in Qinghai on the southern foot of the Qilian Mountains. The main responsibility of the party has seriously damaged the local political ecology.

　　According to the statistics of the reported information, reporters from the Rule of Law Daily show that in 2020, a total of 35 leading cadres will take the initiative to surrender.

Among them, there are two central management cadres and 33 provincial management cadres.

　　Zhuang Deshui believes that it has become a normal state for party members and leading cadres to voluntarily surrender to the case, including central management cadres and provincial management cadres. This is a highlight of the anti-corruption work in 2020, which shows that the overwhelming victory of the anti-corruption struggle has contributed to corruption. The containment effect also shows that the current "four forms" of supervision and discipline have exerted an influence.

　　Song Wei, a professor at the University of Science and Technology Beijing and director of the Integrity Research Center, told a reporter from the Rule of Law Daily that these data fully reflect that the anti-corruption high pressure situation has formed a powerful deterrent since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, especially since the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. We will promote the mechanism of not wanting to be corrupt, not being corrupt, and not daring to corrupt, so that more people who violate discipline and law will take the initiative to surrender.

　　In Zhuang Deshui’s view, another reason for corruption-related leading cadres voluntarily surrendered to the case is that the discipline inspection and supervision organs at all levels pay attention to the promotion of reforms and warning education in the construction of party style and clean government, and use corruption cases around them to educate party members and leading cadres. With a psychological shock.

　　Accurate anti-corruption focuses on people's livelihood

　　Let the masses feel the accessibility of anti-corruption

　　On December 28, 2020, the website of the State Supervision Commission of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection announced that Wu Rui, the former vice president of the Sichuan Branch of the Agricultural Bank of China, was under review and investigation.

　　Wu Rui, from Hongya, Sichuan, served as Party Secretary and President of the Sichuan Leshan Branch of the Agricultural Bank of China, and Deputy President of the Sichuan Branch of the Agricultural Bank of China. In September 2020, he served as the Deputy Inspector of the Sichuan Branch of the Agricultural Bank of China.

　　The "Rules of Law Daily" reporter statistics found that in 2020, among the "Central-level Party and State Organs, State-owned Enterprises and Financial Unit Cadres" reported by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and State Supervision Commission website in 2020, there are a total of 14 leading cadres in the financial system for disciplinary review. Accounted for more than a quarter.

　　This means that for every 4 “cadres of central-level party and state agencies, state-owned enterprises and financial institutions” notified, there will be at least one person in the financial system.

　　Among the 14 leading cadres of the financial system that were subject to disciplinary review, 10 were leading cadres of financial institutions, and 4 were leading cadres of financial regulatory authorities.

　　Among them, Xue Jining, former party secretary and director of the Inner Mongolia Supervision Bureau of the China Banking Regulatory Commission, is the first leading cadre of the financial sector to be notified of disciplinary review in 2020.

　　Xue Jining, a native of Rugao, Jiangsu, served as the former Deputy Director of the Supervision Bureau of the China Banking Regulatory Commission in November 2003 and was promoted to the former Party Secretary and Director of the Inner Mongolia Supervision Bureau of the China Banking Regulatory Commission in August 2007.

　　Anti-corruption in the financial sector is only a microcosm of anti-corruption in 2020.

　　The Communiqué of the Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection announced in January 2020 stated that it will deepen the anti-corruption work in the financial sector, increase the anti-corruption efforts of state-owned enterprises, resolutely investigate and deal with corruption in the fields of resources, land, planning, construction, and engineering, and continue to pursue investigations. "Operation Skynet."

　　Zhuang Deshui told a reporter from the Rule of Law Daily that this reflects a feature of anti-corruption in 2020, that is, precise anti-corruption---oriented corruption and precise cutting into relevant fields.

For example, focus on the areas of people’s livelihood, finance, and poverty alleviation areas that the people have strongly reported, so as to solve the unhealthy trends and corruption problems around the people and improve the accessibility of anti-corruption.

　　One proof is that, according to the goal set by the central government, by 2020, the rural poor under my country's current standards will be lifted out of poverty.

According to statistics from reporters from the Rule of Law Daily, the website of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission published a total of 39 typical cases of corruption and work style issues in the poverty alleviation field in 2020.

　　In addition, in Song Wei's view, in 2020, discipline inspection and supervision agencies at all levels will focus on the Party Central Committee's decision-making and deployment of epidemic prevention and control to carry out supervision and discipline, and play an important role in safeguarding the fight against the epidemic.

　　Improve the level of institutionalization of anti-corruption

　　Make up for the shortcomings of the rule of law in anti-corruption

　　In the first year of 2020, the General Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China issued the "Work Rules for Disciplinary Inspection and Supervision Organs Handling Reports and Accusations" to standardize the procedures for receiving, accepting, handling, and disposing of reports and accusations by discipline inspection and supervision organs, focusing on upholding and improving the party and state supervision system.

　　In order to fully implement the main responsibility of the party committee (party group) to strictly govern the party and promote the development of the comprehensive and strict governance of the party, in March 2020, the General Office of the CPC Central Committee issued the "Party Committee (Party Group) Implementing the Regulations on the Responsibility of the Fully Strictly Governing the Party" , As an important measure of the Party Central Committee to improve the responsibility system for comprehensive and strict governance of the party.

　　In Zhuang Deshui's view, despite the impact of the epidemic in 2020, the discipline inspection and supervision agencies at all levels did not relax their discipline standards. On the contrary, this special environment gave the discipline inspection and supervision agencies the opportunity to strengthen their internal system and mechanism construction.

　　On June 20, 2020, the Nineteenth Meeting of the Standing Committee of the 13th National People's Congress deliberated and passed the Law of the People's Republic of China on Administrative Sanctions for Public Officials.

　　The purpose of formulating the Law on Administrative Sanctions for Public Officials is to regulate administrative sanctions in accordance with the law, strengthen the supervision of all public officials who exercise public power, and promote public officials to perform their duties in accordance with the law, uphold public rights, engage in integrity in politics, and uphold ethics.

　　Zhuang Deshui believes that the promulgation of the law on government sanctions for public officials has strengthened the legal supervision and restriction of public power, and more importantly, has made the resolution of the supervisory committee specified in the supervisory law clear.

　　Zhuang Deshui reminded that, in accordance with the provisions of the Public Official Sanctions Law, the supervisory agency shall impose administrative sanctions on the public officials who violate the law, and the appointment and dismissal agencies and units shall impose sanctions on the violating public officials, and established a dual-track sanction system for administrative sanctions and sanctions. Achieve full coverage of the supervision object.

　　In Song Wei's view, the promulgation and implementation of these internal party regulations and national laws have provided new institutional support for power constraints.

With the continuous deepening of the reform of the national supervision system, the functions of supervision, discipline, accountability and supervision, review and investigation have all achieved institutionalized development, and "the level of institutionalization of anti-corruption has been significantly improved."

　　It is worth noting that on December 22, 2020, the draft of the Law on Supervisors was submitted to the Standing Committee of the 13th National People's Congress for the first review.

The main contents of the draft include general rules, duties, obligations and rights of inspectors, conditions and selection of inspectors, appointment and removal of inspectors, management of inspectors, assessment and rewards of inspectors, supervision and punishment of inspectors, Career security, etc.

　　"The significance of formulating the Law on Supervisors is to focus on building a socialist supervisory system with Chinese characteristics, help further deepen the reform of the national supervisory system, improve the anti-corruption leadership system and working mechanism, improve the party and state supervision system, and promote the national governance system and governance capabilities Modernization. In particular, to give the supervisor a clear legal status, so that the supervisor's powers and responsibilities can be clarified." Zhuang Deshui said.

　　In Zhuang Deshui's view, as more and more supervision and discipline and anti-corruption practical experience rise to the level of party regulations and national laws, the rule of law and anti-corruption is becoming a reality, and the anti-corruption "legal net" is becoming more and more dense.
