LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Check China now

The Washington Times

In this Nov. 15, 2012 file photo, new Communist Party General Secretary Xi Jinping attends the press event to introduce the newly-elected members of the Politburo Standing Committee at Beijing’s Great Hall of the People. Xi is highlighting corruption as a scourge that could bring down the Communist Party, though he has yet to offer any specific new proposals to stop it. In a weekend speech that was carried Monday, Nov. 19, by the official Xinhua News Agency, Xi told the new 25-member Politburo that the party must be vigilant against graft, noting that corruption in other countries in recent years has prompted major social unrest and the collapse of governments.
