Anti-Corruption Hotline Changed ����In a bid to make China's anti-corruption hotline easier of access for the public to report such crimes, prosecutors offices across China changed the number in tandem into numbers ending with the same four digits "2000." ����This, it is believed, will make the numbers easier to remember, said Zhang Qiong, deputy procurator-general of the Supreme People's Procuratorate (SPP). ����Now the hotline numbers for the SPP are changed to (86-10) 65252000 and 65592000. Anti-corruption hotline numbers will be published by local prosecutors' offices throughout China. ����Zhang said that it is part of the efforts made by the SPP in establishing closer ties with the public and to rely on them in furthering the anti-corruption drive. ���� ���� HomeNews 1999-01-06 Page4 Full Story in Chinese
