 The entire Party should resolve to curb the spreading of corruption and wage a long-term war to gradually eradicate the hotbed that breeds corrupt behavior.

A total of 4,698 county-level cadres or higher-level cadres were punished by the CPC's discipline watchdogs in 2012 and 961 cadres at the county-level or above have been transferred to judicial organs, CCDI figures show.

Among them are Bo Xilai, former member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, Liu Zhijun, former minister of railways, Huang Sheng, former vice governor of east China's Shandong Province, and Tian Xueren, former vice governor of northeast China's Jilin Province.

Their cases have been transferred to judicial organs.

Xi Jinping, general secretary of the CPC Central Committee, vowed Tuesday to unswervingly fight against corruption and keep power reined within the "cage of regulations" when he delivered a speech at the CCDI plenary session.

"No exception will be made when it comes to Party disciplines and law," he said. "Cases will be investigated completely and no leniency will be meted out no matter who is involved."

The two-day plenary session passed a work report delivered by Wang Qishan, secretary of the CCDI and also a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, on behalf of CCDI standing committee.

Li Keqiang, Zhang Dejiang, Yu Zhengsheng, Liu Yunshan and Zhang Gaoli, members of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, were present at the meeting.
