corruption cases are frequently reported by news media. for example, some high ranking officials help themselves to state fund (公款) illegally. for another example, some leaders abuse power (滥用权力). what's more, malpractice(玩忽职守，渎职), bribery (贿赂) and other corrupt behaviour do much harm. as a result, the healthy development of the economy is seriously affected.
as china continues its reforms and opens wider to the outside world, anti corruption is a question of priorities. our government has realized the seriousness of corruption problems. corruption presents a dreadful threat to state interests. corruption cases seriously damage efforts to build a clean and honest government, undoubtedly dampen(泼冷水，挫伤) people's enthusiasm(热情) and heavily affect stability(稳定).
in the future, to cement (巩固) the fruits that reform has borne, an even greater effort is needed in the battle against corrupt behaviour. governments at all levels should take more effective measures to combat corruption. laws already in effect must be strictly enforced (执行). the implementation (实施) of anti corruption programs should target every part of china. anti corruption agencies should intensify crackdown (增强打击力度) on bribery, attach greater importance to the anti corruption campaign.
