Editor's note: At a symposium on "Governance: Anti-corruption and Financial Reform" at Peking University on Friday, two Chinese scholars and two South Korea scholars shared their views on how to promote the anti-corruption campaign. Below are excerpts of their speeches:

More than 5 million Communist Party of China members and government officials have been penalized by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection in the past three decades for breaking Party regulations. And more than 100 of the 500 officials above the provincial/ministerial level penalized by commission have stood trial for corruption.

The Third Plenum of the 18th CCDI of the CPC was held earlier this year. In a keynote speech at the plenum, Party General Secretary Xi Jinping said corruption has to be fought in three ways: by supporting the anti-corruption campaign through the deepening of reforms; by granting various levels of disciplinary committees relatively more independence and power; and by strengthening supervision over power and building a scientific power structure.
