  •   Chinese authorities have detained an activist for "inciting subversion" after she led a campaign pushing for government officials to publicly disclose their wealth.

  •   There has not been any public statement on the subversion charges, an accusation often made against government critics.

  • 人權組織說,這些人被拘留讓人們質疑中國新領導人習近平打擊政府腐敗的承諾。

  •   Since taking power last year in a once-a-decade power transfer, the new Communist government led by Mr. Xi has vowed to address the widespread corruption, warning it could threaten the party's grip on power.
  • 自從去年中共 10 年一次的權力更疊以來,以習近平為首的新的中共中央政府誓言要解決腐敗盛行的問題,中共警告說,腐敗將可危及中共的政權。

  •   But the government has also cracked down on those who wish to expose corruption. It has also tightly censored online criticism of government corruption that it views as being too sensitive.
  • 但是政府還壓制那些要揭露腐敗的人,並加緊在網際網路上對政府腐敗批評的審查;當局認為,這些批評太敏感。
