□ Our reporter Chen Lei
On July 7, the website of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and State Supervision Commission announced that Zhang Yongze, the former vice chairman of the Tibet Autonomous Region Government, was expelled from the party and public office for serious violations of discipline and law.
Zhang Yongze is the first central management cadre to be sacked this year.
Including him, in the first half of this year, the website of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission notified a total of 24 cadres in central management who were subject to disciplinary review.
It is worth noting that from 2017 to 2021, the website of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission notified 18, 23, 20, 18, and 25 cadres in the disciplinary review process, respectively.
This means that in the first half of this year, the number of "tiger" hits has equaled the annual "tiger" hit record since the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.
Experts interviewed by a reporter from the "Rules of Law Daily" believe that this year is the year of the new term, and the anti-corruption situation in the first half of the year is characterized by an increase in the number of "tiger" attacks and an accelerated frequency of "tiger" attacks, which reflects the firm political determination of the Party Central Committee to fight corruption with high pressure. It conveys the signal that the Party Central Committee strictly controls the selection of political and integrity, and selects truly outstanding leading cadres to important positions.
Maintain high-pressure anti-corruption efforts
24 cadres from the central government troop horses
Zhang Yongze's career has been smooth sailing.
At the age of 34, he was promoted to the director of the former Environmental Protection Bureau of the Tibet Autonomous Region.
In April 2012, Zhang Yongze was transferred to the deputy secretary and commissioner of the former Shannan Prefectural Committee of the Tibet Autonomous Region, and was later promoted to the former secretary of the Shannan Prefectural Committee.
In May 2017, at the age of 48, he was promoted to the vice-chairman of the Tibet Autonomous Region government, becoming the youngest vice-chairman in Tibet at that time.
On January 8 this year, the website of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission released information saying: Zhang Yongze was subject to the review and investigation of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission.
The State Supervision Commission of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection stated in a recent bulletin: After investigation, Zhang Yongze had no ideals and beliefs, betrayed his original mission, and his view of political achievements was seriously distorted. The implementation of the party's strategy for governing Tibet in the new era was not resolute and discounted, and he was scheming and running officials. Officials, seriously damage the political ecology of the areas and units where they work, resist organizational censorship, and engage in superstitious activities.
In addition, Zhang Yongze also violated regulations to interfere in the construction of engineering projects and the approval of environmental assessment; , job adjustment and other aspects to make profits, and illegally accept huge amounts of property.
Zhang Yongze is also the first central management cadre in Tibet to be sacked since the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.
On the same day, 4 hours after Zhang Yongze was announced for disciplinary review, the website of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission sent a “tiger” message: Wang Bin, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of China Life Insurance (Group) Company, accepted the review and investigation of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission .
The sack of Zhang Yongze and Wang Bin opened the prelude to the disciplinary review of a group of central management cadres in the first half of the year. After that, Liu Hongwu, former vice chairman of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Government, Wang Minghui, former deputy director of the Sichuan Provincial People's Congress Standing Committee, and Hebei Provincial People's Congress Standing Committee The former deputy director of the association, Xie Jilai and others, fell one after another.
According to statistics reported by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and National Supervisory Commission's website review and investigation column, in the first half of this year, a total of 24 central management cadres were subject to disciplinary review, and the number of "tiger" hits has equaled the annual "tiger" hit record since the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.
According to Zhuang Deshui, deputy director of the Research Center for Integrity Construction at Peking University, this year is the year of the new term, and the anti-corruption situation in the first half of the year is characterized by an increase in the number of "tiger" attacks and an accelerated frequency of "tiger" attacks, which reflects the firmness of the Party Central Committee in its high-pressure anti-corruption campaign. Political determination aims to eliminate the "cancer" of corruption in the party and create a clean and upright political ecology. At the same time, it also conveys the signal of strict selection of political and integrity, and selection of truly outstanding leading cadres to important positions. .
Song Wei, dean of the School of Marxism at the University of Science and Technology Beijing, believes that the above data fully reflects that the Party Central Committee's anti-corruption efforts have not weakened at all, and it still maintains a high-pressure situation.
At the same time, it also proves that the current anti-corruption situation is still severe and complicated, and the stock and increment of corruption still exist.
Focus on key industries
Improve the precision of anti-corruption
On July 4 this year, the website of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and State Supervision Commission announced that Zhang Huayu, the former deputy secretary of the party committee and vice president of China Everbright Bank, was expelled from the party.
After investigation, one of Zhang Huayu's problems was that he used his power to arrange dozens of sons, sons-in-law, younger brothers and other relatives and children of relatives to work in the Everbright system, seeking benefits for many people in terms of job promotion and job transfer, and harming Everbright. System political ecology.
The report also stated that Zhang Huayu sought benefits for relevant companies when he was in office, resigned on the eve of his retirement, and received high salaries in companies that had business connections with his original position after resignation. A typical example of linking with capital and chasing profit madly is also a typical example of the combination of wind and corruption, and the willingness to be hunted.
Statistics show that in the first half of this year, a total of 63 people from the central party and state organs, state-owned enterprises and financial units were reviewed and investigated, of which 29 were leading cadres of financial units (including "one line"). There are 10 leading cadres in the regulatory agencies of the "two sessions"), which can be described as the hardest-hit area.
In addition to financial units, four leading cadres in the grain system were notified for disciplinary review: Zhang Wufeng, former secretary of the party group and director of the State Grain and Materials Reserve Bureau, Xu Baoyi, former member of the party group and deputy general manager of China Grain Reserve Management Group Co., Ltd., China Grain Reserves Suo Xuejun, former deputy general manager of China Transportation Co., Ltd., and Hu Qun, deputy general manager of China Grain Anhui Branch.
It is worth noting that the communiqué issued at the Sixth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection held at the beginning of this year pointed out that it will resolutely investigate and deal with corruption in infrastructure construction and public resource transactions, continue to promote corruption governance in the financial sector, and deepen the anti-corruption work of state-owned enterprises. Deepen the special rectification of corruption in the fields of grain purchase and sales.
Peng Xinlin, a professor at the Academy of Criminal Law of Beijing Normal University and a researcher at the G20 Anti-Corruption Research Center for Fleeing and Asset Recovery, believes that the continuous deepening of anti-corruption work in key areas and key links is one of the characteristics of the first half of the year.
Zhuang Deshui's research found that, from the data in the first half of the year, anti-corruption is mainly concentrated in several key areas proposed at the beginning of the year. The central anti-corruption strategy is trying to make breakthroughs in these key areas, and promote the entire anti-corruption work by point and area. The national discipline inspection and supervision organs According to the central strategic deployment, we will gather our forces to focus on these key areas to investigate and deal with corruption.
"In the financial field, the investigation and punishment of so many corrupt leading cadres is because on the one hand, the corruption problem in the financial field has a long history and the stock of corruption is relatively large; Incremental problem." Zhuang Deshui said.
In Song Wei's view, the anti-corruption efforts in key industries and key areas such as finance and grain purchase and sales have continued to increase, indicating that anti-corruption focuses on systemic and industrial corruption governance and improves the accuracy of anti-corruption. One of the characteristics of the half-year anti-corruption work.
Promoting the Three Forces in One
Improve the effectiveness of corruption control
In February of this year, the General Office of the Central Committee issued the "Opinions on Strengthening the Construction of a Clean Culture in the New Era", pointing out that comprehensively and strictly governing the party, we must not only rely on treating the symptoms, take powerful medicines to eliminate scabies, and treat chaos with emphasis on code; Conservation culture, keep the foundation of governance.
In June of this year, the General Office of the CPC Central Committee issued the "Regulations on the Management of Leading Cadres' Spouse, Children and Their Spouses Running Business-run Enterprises", which stipulated the applicable objects and circumstances, work measures, and disciplinary requirements for the management of leading cadres' spouses, children and their spouses running business-run enterprises. It is clearly stipulated to regulate and restrict the operation of power, prevent the risk of clean government from the source, and promote the construction of leading cadres' family style.
Subsequently, the General Office of the CPC Central Committee issued the "Working Rules for Disciplinary Inspection and Supervision Organs Stationed Institutions" to comprehensively regulate the organizational setup, leadership system, work responsibilities, duty performance procedures, and management supervision of the institutions stationed by discipline inspection and supervision organs at all levels, so as to promote the standardization of the work of stationed institutions. , rule of law, formalization.
In this regard, Zhuang Deshui said that the promulgation of a series of intra-party laws and regulations reflects that the Party Central Committee has promoted the integration of the promotion of not being able to corrupt, not being corrupt, and not wanting to be corrupt to a more important strategic position.
Taking the "Opinions on Strengthening the Construction of Integrity Culture in the New Era" as an example, he analyzed that the central government aims to require leading cadres to cultivate integrity, self-discipline and moral integrity, to be virtuous, to abide by public morality, and to be strict with private morality, and to put integrity requirements throughout the daily education management and supervision. Among them, the construction of family style is regarded as an important part of the construction of the style of leading cadres, and the political consciousness of party members and leading cadres is aroused, and because of this consciousness, "do not want to be corrupt".
On June 17, the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China conducted the 40th collective study on the collective promotion of "Don't Dare to Be Corrupt, Can't Be Corrupted, and Don't Want to Be Corrupt."
Song Wei noticed that a new statement was put forward in it: to promote the integration of dare not to be corrupt, not to be corrupt, and not to want to be corrupt, the three must exert their forces at the same time, in the same direction, and comprehensively, so that the powerful deterrent effect of not dare to be corrupt, The rigid institutional constraints that cannot be corrupted and the ideological and educational advantages of not wanting to be corrupt are integrated into one, and the "full-cycle management" method is used to promote various measures to cooperate with each other in terms of policy orientation, promote each other in the implementation process, and complement each other in terms of work results.
In Song Wei's view, whether it is "fighting tigers", "swatting flies" or "hunting foxes" in anti-corruption, or "promoting reforms with cases" in the process of investigating and handling cases, even including the central government's introduction of a series of institutional norms, all emphasize the integration of Dare to be corrupt, not to be corrupt, and not wanting to be corrupt, emphasizing the integrity of the three, which is not only a summary of the important experience in anti-corruption since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, but also the orientation or goal of future anti-corruption work.
"With the continuous improvement of the system and mechanism of our country's integrated promotion of not being corrupt, not being corrupt, and not wanting to be corrupt, we will deepen the application of the policy and strategy of promoting the integration of not being afraid to be corrupt, not being corrupt, and not wanting to be corrupt, and we will continue to explore the integration of those who are not afraid to be corrupt, cannot be corrupt, and do not want to be corrupt. The effective carrier and practical way of the anti-corruption will surely promote the achievement of more institutional achievements and greater governance effects, improve the efficiency of corruption governance, achieve both the symptoms and root causes, and comprehensively win the tough and protracted battle against corruption." Peng Xinlin said.
