Progress in fight against corruption

The CPC's anti-corruption measures have already been recognized by both the Chinese citizens and international community.

According to Transparency International, a non-governmental organization which monitors and publicizes corporate and political corruption in international development, China is making progress in the fight against corruption. This is evidenced by the rise over the past two decades of its score on the Corruption Perceptions Index.

Note: In 2012, Transparency International updated the methodology for the Corruption Perceptions Index, from 0 - 10 to 0 (highly corrupt) – 100 (very clean).

A survey by the National Bureau of Statistics of China shows that from 2003 to 2010, Chinese citizens' rate of satisfaction with the work of combating corruption and building a clean government rose steadily from 51.9 percent to 70.6 percent. In addition, the percentage of citizens who thought that corruption had been kept down to varying extents increased from 68.1 percent to 83.8 percent.
