The picture shows Hainan Liberation Park in lingaojiao. (picture provided by Lingao County Commission for Discipline Inspection and supervision) Lingao County, located in the northwest of Hainan Island, is rich in agricultural and fishery resources and is known as the "land of fish and rice" in Hainan. For a period of time, Lingao County has been comprehensively and strictly governing the party, and the main responsibility is missing. Several former "top leaders" of the county Party committee and county government are themselves incorrect, arbitrary, take the lead in corruption, and form gangs, which has seriously damaged the local business environment and political ecology. Since its establishment in 2019, the Lingao task force of the supervision committee of Hainan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection has filed a case for review and investigation of 36 public officials involved, including 2 at the Department and bureau level, 11 at the county and department level, 23 at the township section level and below, and 22 have been transferred to the judicial authorities; The amount of money involved in the case was found to be 230million yuan, more than 120 million yuan of property involved in the case was recovered, and more than 700 million yuan of national economic losses were recovered. The relevant departments were promoted to recover the management rights of the Donggang wharf of the gold medal port and the memorial Hall of the sea crossing campaign of the liberation of Hainan Island according to law, and the long island Blue Bay real estate project was promoted to comprehensively deal with the problems of occupying the coastal zone and destroying the style and features of the red scenic spot... At the same time, the work of promoting reform through cases involving all the crime units in the county was also solidly carried out. Pay close attention to the "encirclement of the sea" and "land occupation", and get involved in the unhealthy trend of engineering projects, and dig deep and thoroughly investigate the corrupt elements who seriously damage the local political ecology At the end of October 2020, under the supervision of Hainan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and supervision, the Party committee and government of Lingao County organized a joint action of multiple departments to demolish three illegal high-rise buildings in the long island LANWAN real estate project adjacent to Lingao Cape, with a total area of 41000 square meters. Illegal high-rise buildings fell, and a number of Party members and cadres who violated discipline and law also fell. According to the clues of the inspection and handover of the provincial Party committee, the supervision committee of Hainan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection seriously investigated and dealt with the serious violation of discipline and law by Cao Wen, the former deputy secretary of the Lingao County Party committee and the former head of the county government. The investigation found that Cao Wen took advantage of his position to seek benefits for developers of Long Island LANWAN real estate project and others in terms of land use change, engineering project contracting, real estate project development, etc., and illegally received huge amounts of property. Caowen, lured by huge benefits, used his authority to provide "all-round" services for developers: if the nature of the land does not meet the requirements of real estate development and construction, he will illegally change the nature of the land; If there is a problem with the project planning, directly say hello to the planning department and handle the planning permit in violation of regulations; Without the pre-sale index, he interceded with the housing management department and handled the pre-sale license for the developer in violation of regulations... It is with the support of Cao Wen and others that some projects in Lingao have violated the rules and "green light" all the way. "Charging for surrounding the sea" and "land occupation is king" are prominent problems in Lingao. The Golden Harbor Park was once one of the five provincial-level economic development zones in the province, but for a period of time, few enterprises operated normally in the park, which was largely due to the selfishness of some leading cadres, who focused their work on helping specific stakeholders "circle the sea" and "occupy land", and seize good locations and resources. The West Port Wharf was sold at a low price without evaluation, and was frequently transferred thereafter, resulting in the loss of huge state-owned assets. According to the work deployment of supervision and discipline enforcement in the "three fields" of land use, project bidding, and land and space planning in the province, the "image project" of the memorial archway of Lanjiang Cultural Park, which is strongly reflected by cadres and the masses, the long island Blue Bay real estate project that seriously encroaches on the coastal zone and destroys the style of the red scenic spot, the gold medal port problem of continuous disputes involving Mafia and evil, corruption, and the loss of state-owned assets, the Hainan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and supervision committee has comprehensively studied and judged After thorough investigation, a number of Party members and cadres in Lingao were found to have violated discipline and laws. It is understood that in view of the prominent problems existing in the political ecology of Lingao County, the Hainan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and supervision co-ordinated the relevant departments and groups of the provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and supervision as well as the forces of the municipal and County Commission for Discipline Inspection and supervision to form a task force. Through the "office group local" joint case handling mode, it has successively filed a case for review and investigation on the serious violations of discipline and law of 13 provincial and 23 county cadres, including Zheng Boan, former member of the Standing Committee of the Haikou municipal Party committee and head of the United Front Work Department, and Xu Qipeng, former director of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress of. From the perspective of supervision, inspection, examination and investigation, 90% of Lingao's series of corruption cases involve the engineering field, and there are widespread problems such as the disclosure of base bids, public bidding and concealed bidding, bid rigging and collusion, illegal subcontracting, illegal affiliation and so on, involving all links from project approval, bidding to construction, fund allocation, acceptance and so on. "The large number of people involved, the large amount of money involved and the wide range of fields involved, especially some party members and cadres who still brazenly and wantonly amassed money after the 18th and even the 19th CPC National Congress, are very shocking." Liaojianbao, head of the Lingao task force of the Hainan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and supervision and director of the 11th examination and Investigation Office of the provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and supervision, said. Implement the policy of tempering justice with mercy, severely punish 12 corrupt elements who do not repent, and leniently deal with 14 party members and cadres who have lost their way and returned In order to implement the policy of "learning from past mistakes and avoiding future ones, treating diseases and saving people", and educate and save the majority, on September 23, 2021, the supervision committee of Hainan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection held a warning education conference for Party members and cadres at or above the deputy section level in Lingao County, informing the relevant situation of a series of corruption cases in Lingao County. In the face of Party members and cadres at or above the deputy section level in the county, the meeting informed the scene that in the morning, the provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and supervision had taken retention measures against two leading cadres, including Wang Hua, the former deputy head of Lingao County, and Wang Guozhou; The decision to file a case for review and investigation and take retention measures against Wang Huanguang, the former Secretary of the Party group and director of the county forestry bureau, Fu Ke, the former director of the financial and Economic Working Committee of the Standing Committee of the county people's Congress, and the former Secretary of the party group of the county natural resources and Planning Bureau was announced at the scene. "Party members and leading cadres should deeply understand the current situation of comprehensively and strictly administering the party, deeply understand the significance of seriously investigating and dealing with a series of corruption cases in Lingao, deeply reflect and be vigilant, take cases as lessons, learn lessons, and establish a bottom line thinking." The warning education conference sent a clear signal, which not only showed the "strict" attitude, but also clarified the "lenient" policy, so that party members and cadres can know awe, guard against fear, and keep the bottom line; Let the cadres who are on the verge of violating discipline and law be warned, stop at the precipice, and return to the wrong path; Let comrades who have made mistakes see hope and a way out, and urge them to believe in and rely on the organization and actively surrender. After the meeting, the Hainan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and supervision immediately set up a special working group to accept Party members and cadres who violated discipline and law to voluntarily surrender and explain problems. If the provincial administrative cadres voluntarily surrender, the provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and supervision commission shall be responsible for talking; If other cadres voluntarily surrender, the Lingao County Party committee shall be responsible for talking. The reporter noted that only a month later, the supervision committee of Hainan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection concentrated on the news that five cadres, including Lu Xiong, the former member of the Standing Committee of the Lingao County Party committee and the former deputy head of the county government, were suspected of serious violations of discipline and law and were subject to examination and investigation. "The five leading cadres have one thing in common, that is, the masses have a strong response to their problems, the nature of which is serious, and so far they have not taken the initiative to explain their problems to the organization, ignoring the good intentions of the organization." The relevant person in charge of the task force said. The supervision commission of Hainan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection implemented the policy of tempering justice with mercy in the whole process of the review and investigation of a series of corruption cases in Lingao, grasped the dialectical and unified relationship of "punishment, treatment and prevention", and gave play to the comprehensive effects of punishment and deterrence, punishment and rescue, and education and vigilance. The case handlers told reporters that under the deterrence of discipline and law and the call of policies, some party members and cadres chose to voluntarily surrender, clarified their problems, made a profound inspection, and actively cooperated with the review and investigation of the task force and analyzed the local political ecology. Under the overall guidance of the Hainan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and supervision, the Lingao County Commission for Discipline Inspection and supervision applied the policy of Combining Leniency with severity to the cadres who voluntarily surrendered to the case, which also gave some of the people involved the opportunity to reform, unload their burdens and go to battle light. "At present, the 14 party members and cadres who know their way back, voluntarily surrender to the case, have a good attitude of admitting their mistakes and repenting their mistakes, and actively return the stolen goods and losses will be timely implemented the policy and given lenient treatment; the 12 corrupt elements who are lucky, unrepentant, and even deceive the organization will be severely punished and never give up." Hainan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and supervision firmly grasp the attitude variables, accurately apply the "four forms", and achieve the unification of the political effect, discipline and law effect and social effect of case investigation and handling. Adhere to the principle of investigating, dealing with and rectifying at the same time, not only thoroughly investigate the case, but also dig deep into the root causes, so as to promote the synchronous rectification of problems "The investigation and handling of a series of corruption cases in Lingao is a process of continuous exposure of hidden problems, a process of continuous analysis and research of problems, and a process of targeted active rectification and problem-solving." The relevant person in charge of the Hainan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision said. Lingao is adjacent to Danyang Economic Circle in the West and Haikou economic circle in the East. It has obvious location advantages, fertile land, rich water resources, 122.95 kilometers of high-quality coastline and natural harbors such as gold medal and Xinying. It has superior resource endowment and great development potential. It should have been the "vanguard" and "pacesetter" in the construction of Hainan free trade port. But in the past period of time, Lingao managed the party loosely, corruption occurred frequently, the political ecology was polluted, and the economic and social development lagged behind. The lessons were very profound. On the one hand, the problems of power marketization and commercialization are prominent. Some leading cadres put the upholding of public power and the honest use of power behind them, and made use of the public power and resources in their hands to engage in power rent-seeking and benefit transfer. On the other hand, "circle culture" prevailed. Some leading cadres do not seek their own affairs in their positions, concentrate on speculation, and form a "small circle", which seriously pollutes the political ecosystem and destroys the relationship between the party and the masses, cadres and the masses. There are also some party members and cadres who do not want to make progress, are content with the status quo, and have a floating style of work. Some are focused on making profits, muddling along, and soft landing. The problems of formalism and bureaucracy are prominent. After the leaders of Lingao County, such as LV Xiong, Wang Hua and Wang Guozhou, were sacked, they all mentioned that the local political ecology was abnormal, the social atmosphere was polluted, and they were both victims and perpetrators. "We focus on investigating and handling cases, dig deep into system and mechanism problems, and urge the Lingao County Party committee to strengthen special governance in public works, land and space planning and other fields, so as to achieve the fundamental effect of continuous purification of political ecology, continuous improvement of party conduct, government conduct and people's habits, and booming economic development." Liao Jianbao told reporters. In the process of investigating and dealing with a series of corruption cases in Lingao, the Commission for Discipline Inspection and supervision of Hainan Province promoted the integration of not daring to corrupt, not corrupt, and not wanting to corrupt. It insisted on investigating and dealing with the cases while rectifying, so as to not only find out the cases, but also dig deep into the root causes, and promote the synchronous rectification of the problems. The task force has held discussions with the main leaders of the Lingao County Party committee and the County Commission for Discipline Inspection and supervision for many times, urging them to deeply learn the lessons of the case, so as to rectify the source, stimulate the evil and promote the clean, and promote the implementation of the "two responsibilities" of comprehensively and strictly administering the party. In response to the prominent problems exposed by a series of corruption cases, such as Party members and cadres running enterprises in violation of regulations, interfering in engineering projects, and serious eating and drinking habits, the Discipline Inspection Commission and Supervision Committee of Lingao County carried out special rectification to urge Party organizations at all levels in the county to perform their main responsibilities, carry out self-examination and self correction, plug institutional loopholes, establish a long-term mechanism, and promote the change of cadre style. Lingao County is responsible for 200 people involved in the case
