Official slams empty talk

政協呼吁狠剎'不正之風'

A political advisor Wednesday panned "empty talk" among government and Party officials, saying they care more about their own careers than the interests of the people, Xinhua reported. Zhu Zhenzhong, chairman of the Guangzhou municipal committee of the CPPCC, said meetings are "full of clichés, nonsense, empty talk, political jargon, and lies." Zhu made the comment at the ongoing session of the CPPCC National Committee.

據新華社報道，廣州市政協主席朱振中10日在全國政協會議上發言呼吁，狠剎搞形式、唱高調、耍花架子的不正之風。朱振中說，一些黨政機關和領導干部的工作不是為了人民群眾的利益，而是"給上級、給領導看的"。"千篇一律的會議和生搬硬套的官樣文章，被群眾戲稱為'常說的老話多、正確的廢話多、漂亮的空話多、嚴謹的套話多、違心的假話多'。"朱振中說。
