Province must break corruption chains

SO MANY OFFICIALS IN SHANXI PROVINCE, North China, have fallen in the anti-corruption campaign that the province now has about 300 official positions vacant. Comments:

There used to be a joke that called for talents nationwide to compete for the official positions in Shanxi to "change" the local political ecology. The problem is, the local corrupt political ecology is because of the flaws in the system and the lack of proper supervision over power. If these remain unchanged, new officials that go to the province will only be corrupted as well.
