Ling Feng, manager of a local travel agency, told the program that the tour cost over 380,000 yuan (61,128 U.S. dollars).

In January 2013, the organizer of the tour was removed from office and all the participants of the meeting were told to pay their share in the total cost.

"I just can't regret it more, really. It was such a huge mistake" Shao Liang, one of those who attended the jaunt, said in the documentary.

This case, along with five other violations, was previously, albeit briefly, disclosed by the CCDI in 2013.

As of Oct. 31 this year, the CCDI has openly named and shamed the officials involved in 52 cases that centered on frugality and work practice violations. Local disciplinary authorities also made public more than 725 relevant violation cases.

A total of 67,737 such violations have been investigated and 89,585 officials have been punished, according to the program.

"To judge a political party, an element is to see its nature, then, its principles and its work style," the opening narration of the program explained.

Another high-profile case covered by the program was that of a public-funded banquet that caused the death of an official.

The CCDI last year publicized the case of Fu Xiaoguang, a provincial-level official in northeast China's Heilongjiang Province, who was demoted for organizing the dinner, which resulted in the death of one of his associates.

The reception was held at a popular scenic spot in the province and local forestry administration funds were used to foot the bill.
