Civil Servants in Jiangsu Assessed by Public
In Jiangsu province the local dignitaries are “lining up to buy newspaper pages and TV commercials to advertise
their performance.” According to the China Daily
the provincial government is in the process of collecting public
opinions for the year-end assessment of some 87 provincial bureaux and
services. As the outcome of these polls may effect career
perspectives of the senior civil servants the advertisements are
probably intended to help the public realize how well public money is
spent.
