A COMMENTARY IN PEOPLE'S DAILY ON TUESDAY refuted the extreme view that most civil servants over 55 years old and above the deputy-county-head level are corrupt. The piece immediately prompted hundreds of thousands of comments from netizens. Comments:

Disclosing officials' asset is the simplest way to defend the good and expose the bad.

If the loopholes in the law are not closed, corruption will be like bottomless pit engulfing civil servants. Each corrupt official is a heavy loss for the country and the people.
