Closing Speech (Plenary 4) ADB/OECD Anti-Corruption Initiative for Asia and the Pacific 5th regional anti-corruption conference 28-30 September 2005, Beijing, PR China Closing Speech (Plenary 4) Mr. Huang Shuxian Vice Minister of Supervision P.R. China The three-day Fifth Regional Anti-corruption Conference for Asia and the Pacific has completed all the items on the agenda thanks to the common efforts of all delegates, and is now coming to its conclusion. On behalf of the organizing committee and the Ministry of Supervision of the People’s Republic of China, I would like to congratulate on the success of the conference and express our heartfelt gratitude to all the delegates and friends for your support and cooperation. The Chinese government attaches great importance to this conference. During the conference, Mr. Wu Guanzheng, member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Secretary of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, and Mr. He Yong, secretary of the CPC Central Committee Secretariat and Deputy Secretary of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, had a cordial meeting with heads of delegations. Mr. Hua Jianmin, State Councilor and Secretary-General of the State Council of PRC, attended and addressed the opening ceremony. Mr. Jia Chunwang, Procurator of the Supreme People’s Procuratorate of the People’s Republic of China, was also present at the opening ceremony. Mr. Li Zhilun, Minister of Supervision of PRC, delivered the welcoming speech to the conference. They highly praised the work of the ADB/OECD Anti-Corruption Initiative for Asia-Pacific clearly expounded the principles and policies of the Chinese government on building a clean government and countering corruption, and expressed China’s sincere aspiration to participate in anti-corruption exchange and cooperation in Asia and the Pacific. During the conference, Delegates from China’s supervisory institutions had broad contacts with participants from other countries and regions. They exchanged experience, deepened understanding and increased cooperation. Delegates at the conference focused on the theme “Reducing inequality and promoting growth — driving down corruption,” reviewed recent anti-corruption work in Asia and the Pacific, and discussed strategies for expanding anti-corruption efforts in the future in the region. We conducted in-depth exchanges and discussions focusing on the following six topics: how can public opinion surveys assist in preparing anti- corruption reform, effective donor support for anti-corruption reform in developing countries, preventing corruption in humanitarian relief operations, conflicts of interest typologies, creating a supportive environment for business integrity, and denying safe havens through regional and worldwide judicial cooperation. The conference has reached consensus on many issues. At the same time officials of the Bureau of Policy Development of the United Nations Development Program made constructive suggestions concerning support and donation for anti-corruption reforms in the region. Transparency International and other NGOs expressed their views on curbing corruption and promoting inequality and development. I believe this conference will play a positive role in strengthening anti-corruption activities and cooperation in the region and developing friendship among oversight agencies of all countries. Resolutely curbing corruption is a strategic task for all countries and regions in Asia and the Pacific, as well as important responsibilities of their governments. The Ministry of Supervision of PRC is willing to work together with its counterparts throughout the region, strengthen exchange and cooperation, and strive to build a clean, pragmatic, people and efficient government, and promote social justice and development. I would take this opportunity to wish you all a pleasant trip back home. .

Xiao, 59, previously a senior aide to Premier Li Keqiang, will replace 65- year-old Lou Jiwei, who held the job for a little more than three years, according to an official Xinhua News Agency report Monday. There was no news on what post, if any, Lou will go on to take. The change probably won’t have much impact on fiscal policy, according to Citigroup Inc. Lou restructured local-government finances to reduce the cost of a record amount of debt run up by provinces after the global financial crisis.

Richard Hecklinger, OECD Deputy Secretary-General, underlined the success of the conference, especially in enabling participants to openly share experiences and challenges: “Government commitment to fighting corruption in the region has improved over the past two years and reforms are underway but much more still needs to be done.” The conference was convened in Beijing from 28-30 September 2005. Mr. Wu Guanzheng, member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Chairman of the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, met with the representatives of the delegations.

  • Geopolitics Or Geoeconomics?
    China-Russia Relations: One Year Later: Geopolitics or Geoeconomics? by Yu Bin Associate Professor, Wittenberg University Two one-year anniversaries – the Russia-China friendship treaty and the Sept. 11 attacks – were very much in the minds of Russian and Chinese leaders during the third quarter of 2002. Both China and Russia publicly expressed satisfaction with the historic treaty that “legalizes” bilateral interactions. Beyond that, Russian President Vladimir Putin’s Bismarckian diplomatic dexterity seemed to make Russia not only an eagerly sought member of the major power club, but also to position it in a crucial point between the West and the so-called “axis of evil” states (Iraq, Iran, and North Korea). Meanwhile, Beijing’s strategic and diplomatic constraints were somewhat alleviated by the country’s sustained economic growth. Between China and Russia, the much alluded to friendship treaty appeared only to offer another round of strategic maneuvering and mutual adjustment at the dawn of a new U.S. military doctrine of preemption that would displace deterrence. Premiers’ Tough Talk: Profit First, Friendship Second The quarter began with Russian Security Council Secretary Vladimir Rushailo’s visit to China on July 15-20 to celebrate the one-year anniversary of the friendship treaty. Rushailo met with almost all top Chinese leaders (President Jiang Zemin, Vice Premier Qian Qichen, Foreign Minister Tang Jiaxuan, Defense Minister Chi Haotian, acting State Security Minister Gen Huichang, and Public Security Minister Jia Chunwang). The seventh regular prime ministers’ meeting between Zhu Rongji and Mikhail Kasyanov in Shanghai on Aug. 21-23 was the most substantial high-level interaction for the third quarter.

  • CHAPTER 6: Governance and Order in a Networked World
    6 GOVERNANCE AND ORDER IN A NETWORKED WORLD Niall Ferguson “ s the world slouching toward a grave systemic crisis?” asked the his- Itorian Philip Zelikow at the annual gathering of the Aspen Strategy Group earlier this summer, the kind of “deep system- wide crisis . when people all over the world no longer think the old order work[s].” Among the reasons he gave for anticipating such a crisis was “the digital revolution and the rise of a networked world.” To grasp the scale and nature of this coming crisis, we must begin by recognizing how drasti- cally the balance of power has shift ed in our time from hierarchically ordered empires and superpowers (the euphemism for empire developed to suit American and Soviet sensibilities) to distributed networks. To be sure, the formal “org. chart” of global power is still dominated by the vertically structured super- polities that gradually evolved out of the republics and monarchies of early modern Europe, the colonies they established in the New World, and the older empires of Asia. Th ough not the most populous nation in the world, the United States is certainly the world’s most powerful state, despite—or perhaps because of—the peculiarities of its political system. Its nearest rival, the People’s Republic of China, is usually seen as a profoundly diff erent kind of state, for while the United States has two major parties, the People’s Republic has one, and only one. Th e US government is founded on the separation 159 119106-Shultz_BeyondDisruption.indd9106-Shultz_BeyondDisruption.indd 159159 33/23/18/23/18 77:12:12 PMPM 160 Niall Ferguson of powers, not least the independence of its judiciary; the PRC subordi- nates all other institutions, including the courts, to the dictates of the Communist Party.

  • Reformas E Nova Estrutura Do Governo Chinês
    INFORMATIVO Nº. 95. ABRIL de 2018 Reformas e Nova Estrutura do Governo Chinês O 13º Congresso Nacional do Povo aprovou a nova formação do governo chinês após concluir uma série de reuniões de âmbito governamental realizadas desde o início de março. Além de apresentar os novos nomes que farão parte do governo chinês, foram anunciadas também significativas revisões na própria estrutura do Estado. A reforma configurou uma reestruturação que contará com 26 ministérios e comissões de nível ministerial ligados ao Conselho de Estado - uma entidade ministerial a mais em comparação com a configuração anterior, estabelecida em 2013 no contexto da formação do 12º Congresso Nacional do Povo. De forma geral, esse rearranjo tem como objetivo assegurar maior eficiência de coordenação do Estado e do Partido, de modo a evitar a sobreposição de responsabilidades de mais de uma entidade governamental sobre um mesmo tema. Nesse sentido, a criação de novos ministérios é em parte direcionada ao gerenciamento de temas particularmente complexos no contexto da China contemporânea, como imprudência financeira por parte de bancos estatais, poluição ambiental e corrupção no contexto do Partido-Estado. No caso do combate a poluição, por exemplo, foram criados o Ministério de Recursos Naturais e o Ministério da Ecologia e Meio Ambiente, que passarão a exercer controle sobre temas como mudanças climáticas, recuperação de terras agricultáveis e proteção ambiental, que eram antes de responsabilidade de entidades agora desmanteladas, como o Ministério da Agricultura e o Ministério da Proteção Ambiental. É evidente também que muitos dos nomes eleitos para altos cargos na nova estrutura do governo são importantes aliados de Xi, o que deve garantir o fortalecimento do presidente chinês em seu segundo mandato.
