China has tightened restrictions on officials and heads of government agencies and state-owned enterprises with relatives abroad over the past year, Reuters reported, citing the Hong Kong newspaper “South China Morning Post“, BTA writes.

This comes as China steps up its long-term anti-corruption campaign.

Beijing's “hard pressure“ campaign in recent years has led to a series of high-level investigations, reflecting more than a decade of efforts by Chinese President Xi Jinping to root out corruption and impose discipline in the ruling Chinese Communist Party.
