Put power in cage

How the anti-graft campaign will be intensified and whether it will prevent the rampant abuse of power by officials, and thereafter usher the country into a new era for sustainable development, are the people's major concerns when it comes to their expectations of the Party's new leadership.

Party chief Xi Jinping emphasized that constraint and supervision over the exercise of power must be intensified to place power in a cage. He made the remarks on Tuesday at the second plenary session of the Party's discipline watchdog. He said that a mechanism would be established to deter and prevent officials from abusing their power.

This is absolutely right and is the direction the fight against corruption should follow.
