CPPCC member, Lin Wenken, said, "Anti-corruption is in fact the premise of our socialist country construction, economic construction, and cultural construction. Corruption hampers economic growth and it could even destroy it. Severe corruption may cause the ruling power to decay because the people lose their rights."

CPPCC member, Huang Shaoliang, said, "Anti-corruption remains  the central government's top priority, and the people are  very much concerned about it, too. The introduction of the  four trillion yuan stimulus package has the potential to  increase corruption cases. The law to punish the abuse of  power could, to some extent, protect the rights of officials  in general and the rights of the people."

China set up the National Corruption Prevention Bureau in 2007. The agency studies ways to stem the abuse of power at its roots, to improve the prevention system, and to coordinate efforts in and among various departments.
