BEIJING - A team of inspectors dispatched by the central discipline inspection agency have started work in Tibet, trying to expose corruption and close loopholes in Party management and government work.
The inspectors will look into senior Communist Party of China (CPC) and government officials of the autonomous region to check whether any of them violates disciplinary codes and laws through taking bribes and trading their power for profit, according to a statement published on the website of the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection on Sunday evening.
The statement quoted Ye Dongsong, head of the inspection team, as saying that inspectors will find out whether local officials are working in a style that is harmful or leading inappropriate lifestyles.
The inspection also targets officials who openly speak against the central leadership's policies and major decisions as well as CPC principles and those who fail to effectively implement them, according to Ye.
Inspectors will try to discover loopholes in the promotion of officials and malpractice related to it, such as trading positions and knowingly promoting officials who lack integrity.
If they come to suspect serious disciplinary problems among senior officials in Tibet who have potential to be promoted, inspectors are expected to report truthfully to the central authorities.
Ye vowed not to steer around tough issues and would fully exercise the duty of discipline inspectors.
Tibet, largely inhabited by ethnic Tibetans, is one of 10 provincial divisions to which inspection teams are scheduled to be dispatched in a period starting from mid-July.
Inspectors are also due to visit the General Administration of Sport, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the First Automotive Works Group Corporation.
Chen Quanguo, Tibet's Party chief, pledged to cooperate with the central inspection team and take it as a chance to educate local officials.
On the same day as the central inspection team began their work, Tibet's discipline inspection agency announced punishments for two officials with Tibet University for spending public money on faculty sightseeing trips.
