BEIJING, Jan. 4 (Xinhua) -- China's top disciplinary watchdog has hit the ground running in 2015, through measures that underscore its commitment to rooting out corruption.
The Communist Party of China's (CPC) Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) on Sunday released the contact details and websites of the CCDI and its provincial-level agencies, and invited the public to come forward with information.
"Clean governance and strict management of the Party matter to you and to me. You are invited to take part [and] supervise us," a short statement by the CCDI read.
Looking ahead to the new year, the CCDI has outlined a series of new measures to catch high-ranking "tigers" and low-ranking "flies".
In a bid to reach more people, the CCDI on Jan. 1 launched a mobile application that will release up to date information on corruption investigations.
The app also details how the CCDI handles reports as well as interactive features related to letters submitted from across the country.
The CCDI updated its website to include advanced report and tracking sections, so the public can be kept up to date with the progress of investigations.
These measures show that the CCDI is willing to modernize in line with the contemporary environment, by ensuring transparency and encouraging public participation.
In a new year message published on its website, the authority said "our first sentence for 2015 is that the construction of clean governance and the combating of graft will continue."
Later this month, the CCDI will convene its fifth plenary session.
