Economic Reformer in Shanghai

The new leader of Shanghai wants more market reforms in Shanghai, but seems unlikely to bring about any political reforms. His likely seat on the Politiboro means that he has little interest in wanting political change in China. The CCP might want to rethink their corruption practices. It does not encourage curbing corruption by Hu Jintao placing a loyal supporter in a position held by someone arrested for corruption. There will be little halt to the practice of corruption as long as democracy and popular government are sidelined. Though if Ma in Taiwan gives an example, even democracies have problems with this issue, but at least democracies give the means to investigate those who commit corruption.
