Just sentenced to death

I would like to share a news I've just heard from an East Asia's daily newpaper: former Bank of China's chairman, Liu Liange , was just sentenced to death.  He was found to have issued illegal loans and accepted bribes worth around $ 16.7 million. 

In same Western countries he would have been given a top ranking government position.

    1. True. But other people helped him steal the funds that China's government collects from taxpayers .
