China launches website for complaints about Party officials

A website allowing people to complain about Communist Party of China (CPC) organizations and members in government departments was launched Tuesday.

Either by real name or anonymously, people can report breaches of Party rules by organizations and members. The public can also submit proposals to improve Party work and build clean government. The website is run by the committee in charge of discipline for central government departments.

The Internet is an important way of reporting wrongdoings by Party members and government officials.

Also Tuesday, the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) opened a new "whistle blowing channel" on its website to support its campaign to hunt down fugitive corrupt officials abroad. People, at home or abroad, with relevant information are encouraged to pass on the intelligence on the website.
