BEIJING, Nov. 18 -- The head of China's disciplinary inspections urged inspectors to innovate and focus on specific targets such as a matter, a person, an affiliated organ, a project and a special fund.

The third round of inspection for 2014 will soon begin for 13 state organizations, including the Ministry of Culture, China State Shipbuilding Corporation, China Unicom and Sinopec, said Wang Qishan, secretary of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) of the Communist Party of China (CPC).

Wang called on inspection groups to have clear goals and solve corruption problems by cooperating with all departments involved.

"Inspection should be carried out for a long time. Some regions and departments that have already been inspected also need a second inspection," said Wang.

Inspectors should recognize corruption and malpractice by observing minor problems so as to improve undesirable work styles.
