BEIJING - Wang Sanyun, former chief of the Gansu provincial committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and a senior national legislator, has been expelled from the Party and dismissed from public office for actions including accepting bribes, according to an announcement on Friday. Wang was found to have responded passively and perfunctorily to major decisions by the CPC Central Committee, committed dereliction of duty, lost his political stance, made groundless criticisms of the Party's key policies and to have long engaged in "superstitious activities," said a statement from the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI). Wang was accused of allowing certain officials to pick official posts, regardless of their problems such as disciplinary violations. He used his position and power to seek profits for others and accepted "a huge amount of money and property," which constitutes the crime of bribe taking, according to the statement. Wang also frequented private clubs, it added. Wang was vice chairman of the Education, Science, Culture and Public Health Committee of the 12th National People's Congress after leaving the post of Gansu Party chief. Since he is a member of the 18th CPC Central Committee, the decision to expel him will be officially approved at the next plenary meeting of the CPC Central Committee, the statement said. The CCDI announced its investigation of Wang in July. Sanctions against Wang have been approved by the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, according to the CCDI. It was also decided that his illegal gains will be confiscated and his case transferred to judicial departments, the statement said. tyvek event wristbandsprinted braceletsrubber bracelets custom cheapslap wristbandswristband keychainblack rubber braceletssilicone rubber bands
Enhancing border facilities and control in the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region plays an important role in maintaining local social stability and long-term peace, China's defense chief said.State Councilor and Defense Minster Chang Wanquan ordered local authorities to be stricter in border controls and step up exit and entry administration. In addition, they were told to adopt preventative measures and create a stronger deterrent to ensure border security, according to a news release from the ministry on Monday.Chang made the remarks after a recent inspection of Xinjiang's front-line border posts, checkpoints and ports of entry.He was briefed about border control procedures, infrastructure construction and how the People's Liberation Army, police and local people work together to make border areas safe, the release said.He said people, infrastructure and technology need to be combined more effectively to improve the quality of border control and form an iron wall of defense.People should fully recognize the nation's complex and grim security situation so they can better realize the urgency, responsibility and the sense of mission in border defenses, Chang said.The penetration of religious extremism has led to a number of terrorist attacks in the region in recent years. The region will further rely on technology to enhance front-line border control and improve infrastructure in border areas, such as improving road conditions, Shohrat Zakir, chairman of the autonomous region, said last week.Religious extremism from abroad is believed to be a reason behind violent attacks in Xinjiang and other parts of the country in recent years.Xinjiang has a 5,700-kilometer border with eight countries, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Mongolia, Russia and India. Many terrorists who carried out attacks in the region in recent years received training abroad and then entered illegally, the regional police authority said. Some fled back across the border afterward, the regional police said.
