Chinese Official Posts Sold for Millions
A high ranking Chinese Communist Party (CCP) official attempted to buy a promotion from former CCP leader Jiang Zemin, with at least 30 million yuan (US$4.8 million), according to recent reports.
Former Chinese regime head Jiang Zemin attends the 18th Party Congress on Oct. 15, 2007, in Beijing, China. The leadership appointments that emerged from the congress seemed to favor Jiang, but Hu Jintao's complete retirement may finally force Jiang into the political shadows. Feng Li/Getty Images
