Chapter 235 Establish An Anti-Corruption Supervision Agency! Icac!
Chapter 235: Establish an anti-corruption supervision agency! The Independent Commission Against Corruption!
"I just talked about ways to reduce corrupt officials."
"One, increase officials' salaries."
"Second, establish strict criminal laws."
"Three, people can report corrupt persons"
"I'm going to talk about the fourth method now."
After Ye Xuan wrote the first three methods on the white paper on the wall behind him, he wrote the fourth method.
"Establish an oversight agency."
"Although previous measures can reduce corruption, the degree of reduction is limited.
"If there is no supporting anti-corruption supervision system, it will be difficult to reduce corrupt officials."
“Anti-corruption and anti-corruption watchdog agencies are very important.”
The emperor's and grandson's little dumplings looked at each other.
“Anti-corruption and anti-corruption watchdog agency?”
They've never heard of this.
Ye Xuan saw their doubts.
But it’s normal for these little dumplings to be confused.
Inspection agencies are of the future.
This concept has not yet emerged. "Nine-four-three"
Ye Xuan's suggestion now has undoubtedly opened up new ideas for them.
Zhu Yuanzhang probably hasn't thought yet that he can create a supervisory agency.
Ye Xuan thought to himself.
"Teacher, what is the anti-corruption supervision agency?"
The little dumplings raised their chubby little hands and asked.
"The watchdog agency specializes in investigating official corruption."
"For example, it's the Independent Commission Against Corruption."
Ye Xuan said.
The little dumplings:??
ICAC?
The teacher is saying something new and strange again.
They're almost used to it.
"Teacher, what is the Independent Commission Against Corruption?"
"Teacher, what does the Independent Commission Against Corruption do?"
"Which ICAC is it? Which government? Which government? Which agency?"
The little dumplings asked one after another.
Ye Xuan patted his forehead.
Almost forgot.
The Independent Commission Against Corruption was established in 1974.
The present Ming Dynasty was five or six hundred years ago.
It’s normal for the little dumplings not to know.
Before the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, corruption was prevalent in Hong Kong.
In 1973, Chief Superintendent Gerber of Kowloon, Hong Kong, who was suspected of embezzling more than 4 million Hong Kong dollars, successfully escaped from the country during the investigation.
This caused indignation in Hong Kong society.
Unable to tolerate official corruption, Hong Kong residents took to the streets to protest.
Hong Kong Governor MacLehose realized the seriousness of the situation.
He appointed senior deputy prosecutor Bailiqu to investigate the case thoroughly.
Bailiqu pointed out:
If the anti-corruption ministry cannot be separated from the police.
The public will never believe that the government can eradicate corruption.
Later, Hong Kong Governor MacLehose founded the Independent Commission Against Corruption.
The Independent Commission Against Corruption is independent of the Hong Kong government.
The Integrity Commissioner is directly responsible to the Chief Executive.
Can handle all anti-corruption work independently with full authority.
The Independent Commission Against Corruption has repeatedly brought down high-ranking officials.
Make the corrupt fearful.
In just a few years, Hong Kong has become the most corrupt place in the world.
Ranked 12th among 180 countries and regions by Transparency International.
In Asia, it is second only to Singapore.
Its anti-corruption experience has attracted global attention.
The anti-corruption model has been copied by anti-corruption agencies around the world.
The Independent Commission Against Corruption has "zero tolerance" for corruption.
Whenever you are greedy, you will be caught.
Since then, the Independent Commission Against Corruption has investigated more than 70,000 cases in the thirty-six years since its establishment!
A large number of classic cases continue to emerge.
Gerber corruption case.
This case was the trigger for the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption.
Yau Ma Tei Fruit Bar Corruption Case.
China Bus Corruption Case.
Jianing Group Fraud Case.
Overseas Trust Bank Incident.
Scandal of 26 troubled public housing estates.
Match-fixing outside the 1998 World Cup and so on.
The Independent Commission Against Corruption, whether in reality or in movies, is very popular with the people of Hong Kong.
The "Anti-Corruption Storm" series and "Integrity Storm" both take the Hong Kong Independent Commission Against Corruption as their theme.
There is a classic line in it.
"It is not convenient to disclose the case handled by ICAC."
Seeing Ye Xuan's silence, the little dumplings stared at Ye Xuan with their clear and stupid big black eyes.
"teacher?"
"You haven't said anything about the ICAC!"
“What is the Independent Commission Against Corruption?”
The emperor's and grandson's little dumplings finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked.
Ye Xuan recovered slightly and told:
“The Independent Commission Against Corruption is the anti-corruption watchdog agency.”
"Independent of other departments."
"Has full authority to handle anti-corruption cases."
"Great power."
"Only take orders from——the emperor.
“Its institutions are independent.”
"Ignore belonging to any government department."
“The top official, the ‘Integrity Commissioner’, is appointed by the emperor.”
"Personnel independence."
“Have full personnel rights.
“The Independent Commission Against Corruption adopts a recruitment system.”
“It is also financially independent.
"After approval by the emperor, it will be allocated from the boudoir of the country."
"Independent handling of cases."
“The Independent Commission Against Corruption has regulations such as the Prevention of Bribery Ordinance and the Independent Commission Against Corruption Ordinance.
"Give it independent investigative powers."
"This includes search, seizure, interrogation, etc."
"Be able to use force when necessary."
"If the suspect resists or obstructs the investigation, then this is an illegal act."
“It is precisely because the Independent Commission Against Corruption is independent in its organization, personnel, finance, and case handling that it is able to cut off departmental ties that may have constrained the Independent Commission Against Corruption.
"It also prevents senior officials from using their power to force the Independent Commission Against Corruption."
"Central and local supervisory agencies will be set up."
“Central and local officials can be monitored.”
"Because of the unique nature of a supervisory agency like the Independent Commission Against Corruption, which only takes orders from the emperor, this can prevent supervisory agency officials from being constrained by other officials."
"And because of its independence, it prevents the supervisory agency from having contact with other departments, which would lead to officials protecting each other."
"Supervisory agencies supervise central and local officials in a fair and impartial manner."
"Central and local officials will not dare to commit corruption."
"That's the thing to remember."
"Watchdogs need zero tolerance."
"Every corrupt official must be investigated."
"In addition, to prevent officials from evading their responsibilities, rules must be set for local officials."
"The supervisory agency supervises and inspects hundreds of officials..."
Ye Xuan talked about various aspects.
Then, he said:
"If Ming Dynasty follows these practices and vigorously cracks down on corruption, in just a few years, corruption will be reduced.
The reason why he can say this with such confidence is because of the confidence given to him by the Independent Commission Against Corruption in the future Hong Kong City.
After the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption.
In just a few years, it can become the most corrupt place in the world.
If Ming Dynasty followed his method, it would definitely be like a port city.
Huangsun Xiaotuanzi learned from his heart.
They admired Ye Xuan even more.
"Teacher Ye Xuan is really amazing."
“For example, to reduce corruption, he was able to put forward four suggestions at 0.1.
"If it were us, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to make a single suggestion."
“In every course, the teachers’ suggestions and opinions are like national policies.”
"Ordinary Confucian teachers can't explain it at all, let alone think of such a national policy."
"Only Teacher Ye Xuan, there are so many."
Huangsun Xiaotuanzi stared at the white paper filled with black words on the wall behind Ye Xuan, with bright eyes.
What I have some doubts about is:
Why is he also a teacher?
Is Teacher Ye Xuan so smart?
Compared with Teacher Ye Xuan, other Confucian teachers are simply uncivilized cavemen.
The other Confucian teachers didn't know that in the eyes of this group of little dumplings, they were already a group of cavemen.
Ye Xuan chatted with the emperor's grandchildren for a while and answered their questions.
The bell rings.
This ends the course.
