Additions to two articles for 2023
Original Li Yunfei
First, the supplement to "The Resignation and Suicide of Officials".
From the provincial level to the section level, as long as the corrupt officials who have worked in the power department, as long as the amount of corruption is relatively large, many will commit suicide.
Because the benefits of suicide to the family are greater than the benefits of being caught.
Of course, they did not commit suicide voluntarily, and there are two main types.
One is depression caused by long-term anxiety, and after receiving relevant information, he collapses and commits suicide;
The second is suicide as a last resort after being threatened and coerced for a long time.
As for whether the suicide of an official is a suicide in fear of crime, I still adhere to the original view: the official announcement (characterization) shall prevail. Even if someone thinks that the official announcement is inaccurate, then you have to come up with evidence of inaccuracy.
Second, it is a supplement to "Why Officials Are Keen on Large-scale Construction".
In addition to the three points mentioned in the original text, the fourth point is not to worry about being held accountable.
Until now, whether it is an unfinished project or a "ghost town", as long as there is no major quality accident in the construction process, no one has been held accountable. This is similar to the mantra that circulated during the prevalence of eating and drinking at public expense: "If you don't eat for nothing, you won't eat, and if you eat, you will eat for nothing." ”
