The Chinese government has made efforts to implement the United NationsConvention against Corruption since it went into effect on Feb. 12, 2006 in China.
Achievements have been fulfilled by China in promoting and implementing the convention, according to a statement released on Tuesday by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection of the Communist Party of China and the Ministry of Supervision on their official website.
The convention, adopted by the UN General Assembly in 2003, is the first global legally binding international anti-corruption instrument.
It makes stipulations on the prevention and criminalization of transnational corruption, as well as the international cooperation, assets recovery and implementation mechanisms used to combat this crime.
In accordance with the convention, China has established anti-corruption bodies, including the National Bureau of Corruption Prevention of China, enacted laws against money laundering, and set up a working coordination mechanism to prevent suspects from fleeing the country.
