As China enters 2026, the Communist Party of China (CPC) is doubling down on its landmark anti-corruption campaign. The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) will kick off a crucial three-day meeting this week to set new anti-graft priorities – fresh evidence that #ZeroTolerance remains Beijing's watchword. 🔍
By the Numbers: 2025's Cleanup Campaign
Last year saw staggering results: Over 250,000 corruption cases addressed and 326,834 individuals disciplined. President Xi Jinping emphasized in his New Year address that "strict Party governance remains non-negotiable" – a message reinforced by his recent article in the CPC's Qiushi Journal.
Eight-Point Decision: Small Rules, Big Impact
Since 2012, this anti-bureaucracy blueprint has transformed governance. The 2025 enforcement drive saw 40% of cases involve officials neglecting duties – from environmental protection to economic management. Public approval? A whopping 94.9% according to 2024 data. 📈
2026 Priorities: People-First Approach
This year's focus sharpens on "corruption at people's doorsteps" – school meals, healthcare funds, and elder care systems. With 65 senior officials investigated in 2025 alone, the message is clear: No "tigers" (high-ranking officials) or "flies" (low-level cadres) are safe. 🐯🪰
As Xi declared: "The Party shall never fail 1.4 billion people, even if it means offending a few thousand." With new CCDI measures imminent, China's corruption crackdown shows no signs of slowing. 🚨
