Corruption Crackdown: Guangxi Chairman Under Investigation

China's anti-graft watchdog has initiated an investigation into Lan Tianli, the chairman of Guangxi region, over alleged legal and disciplinary breaches.

Lan is the second high-ranking official to face scrutiny in recent months, following an April probe into Shanxi's governor. The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection's statement implied potential corruption related concerns but withheld specific details.

Lan's investigation is notable, given he retains his office despite the probe. Taking office in 2021, Lan was last seen publicly promoting ecological initiatives in May. Efforts to contact him for comments have been unsuccessful.
