    Party leadership contemplates senior official behavior code

    The Communist Party of China (CPC) is mulling a behavior code for senior Party officials following the fall of several former top officials, a former Party School official said during the Party and the World Dialogue 2015 on Tuesday.

    The central leadership is researching how to manage more than 2,000 provincial-level officials, nearly 200 members of the CPC Central Committee and the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI), more than 20 members of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and seven members of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau, said Li Junru, a former vice president of the CPC Central Committee's Party School.

    He said the country is facing a tough challenge as to who should take up the responsibility to investigate top officials, according to the Nandu Daily.

    "Senior Party officials should be monitored according to Party rules," Li said. He added that the central government is reviewing the cases involving former top officials such as Zhou Yongkang, a former member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau.

    Zhuang Deshui, a deputy director at the Research Center for Government Integrity Building at Peking University who was one of the invited scholars at the dialogue, believes that it's very necessary to lay down a detailed regulation to restrict the behavior of top officials.

    "A corrupt senior official who represents a whole government organ or a whole region could lead to landslide-style corruption which involves a number of officials at different levels colluding with each other and engaging in graft," Zhuang told the Global Times.

    Disclosing the top officials' property, the employment of their close relatives and the expense of each banquet they attended should be included in the behavior code, said Zhuang.

    He said that law experts are currently revising a clean government protocol for all Party members, which will spell out acceptable behavioral conduct to prevent corruption.

    The three-day event, which ends Thursday, was sponsored by China's Center for Contemporary World Studies and the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. It invited prominent political figures and more than 80 scholars from across the globe to discuss anti-corruption with CPC leaders.

    The dialogue is the first such event to be held by the CPC since its 18th National Congress in 2012, according to news portal china.org.cn.

    During the event, topics such as creating a code of conduct for Party officials as well as guidelines for monitoring and investigating those suspected of graft, were discussed.

    A total of 700 officials, including 100 officials at provincial-level and above, were probed for graft since the 18th National Congress of the CPC.
