The Communist Party of China (CPC)'s new top graft buster Monday called on the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) to continue to build a clean Party and fight corruption "without a moment's letup."
Zhao Leji, member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and head of the Party's anti-graft body, made the remarks during a CCDI meeting held to study the spirit of the just concluded 19th CPC National Congress.
He said members of the CCDI are all tasked with a special mission and have a major responsibility to protect the authority as well as the centralized and unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee with Xi Jinping at the core.
They must take the lead in implementing Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era and the missions laid out at the Party congress, Zhao said.
He called for an all-encompassing counter-corruption drive that has no limits and zero tolerance, to ensure officials do not dare to be corrupt, institutionalize the legal framework so it is not possible to be corrupt, and finally create a moral compass so that officials do not want to be corrupt.
