Wu, Lixia: How to solve the problem of “The more anti-corruption efforts, the more corruptive government officials are”
吴丽霞(Wu,Lixia)
It is too absolute to say that every government official is corruptive; but it is true that there are corruptive officials in every bureau. In the city where I used to live, hundreds of mare, bureau supervisors, department supervisors have been arrested. They were under the charge of embezzlement of millions, and even billions.
Corruptive officials are not born this way. There are conditions for the existence and continuity of corruption. This is due to the flawed political and economical system. Whether the sociology of people is fair or selfish depends on whether the political system is democratic or authoritarian, and whether the economic foundation is public or private.
There are two types of political systems: the single-party dictatorship and the multi-party democratic system. The single-party political system has caused the increasing gap of rights and benefits among people; the sociology tends to be private, government officials unite together and the strong privileged class is formed. They bribe and take embezzlements to maintain their status, not to serve the public based on their performance. They are responsible for the superior bureaucratic officials, not for the public. Whether they can be government officials is decided by superior leaders, not elected by people.
How to solve the problem of “The more anti-corruption efforts, the more corruptive government officials are”? The successful experience of many countries tells us that: in order to completely solve the issue of corruptive government officials in China, “separation of legislation, justice and administration and multi-party ruling” must be realized. The establishment of mutual supervision and mutual restriction could solve the issue of corruptive government officials from the root.
