GUANGZHOU, June 29 -- China has finished political and disciplinary inspections of 31 major universities, including Peking and Tsinghua universities.
A meeting of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee on Wednesday reviewed a report on the inspections.
Some of the universities were found to have problems such as private use of public vehicles, banquets at public expense and overseas business trips against regulations, according to the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection in June.
High risks of graft were found in operation of university-affiliated businesses, construction projects, and management of research funds.
Over the last five years, inspections have covered local governments, public institutions, state-owned enterprises, financial institutions and universities for the first time since the Party was founded in 1921.
More than 200 vice-ministerial or higher levels of officials and managers have been investigated since the 18th CPC National Congress, according to Zhang Hao, a professor from Party School of the Guangdong Provincial Committee of CPC.
"The number has tripled that of the 2007 to 2017 period," he said.
Apart from "tigers", or high-level officials engaged in major graft cases, "flies," or grass-root officials, have also been addressed.
A report released by the Supreme People's Procuratorate of China in March said graft cases of over 17,000 low-level officials had been handled over the past year, mainly in land grabs, demolitions and fund management related to agriculture, rural area and farmers.
