The central government decided earlier this year that naked officials, those whose spouse and children have emigrated overseas, will not be considered for promotion.

The decision was made after media reports suggest that more than half of these "naked officials" are involved in embezzlement cases.

Liu Xiaozhuang is a political advisor at this year's top-level meeting.

He says naked officials are a high risk group for corruption, as many of them are becoming "naked" to transfer assets and escape investigation.

"I think naked officials should not be promoted, and neither should they keep their posts. In recent years, many criminal cases have involved naked officials. They take graft and then flee. What they do is cheat the public."

In order to avoid more corruption, Liu suggests that stricter monitoring are needed.

"First, all naked officials should be removed from posts, because even though they have no way to get promoted, they still can accumulate wealth. Second, all the family assets of naked officials should be publicized. Additionally, China should also complete the anti-corruption mechanism and close all the naked official's foreign banking accounts."

However not all of the political advisors to the ongoing meeting think to simply sack those "naked officials" are an useful way in fighting against corruption.

Professor Wang Jianmin, from the School of Management at Beijing Normal University, says thorough investigation is needed to determine if an official is "corrupt" or not.

"In my opinion, we need to deal with the 'naked official issue' in specific situations. What on earth could be defined as a "naked official"? For example, what if the wife of an official is abroad accompanying their child in study? It's sometimes hard to define. I don't think it's proper to simply demote every official who is claimed to be "naked." We need to examine it case by case."

Professor Wang also agrees with stricter disciplinary inspection to officials.

However he also suggests that "naked officials" are better to bring their spouse or children home.

According to Wang's study, there are nearly 1.2 million Chinese officials have their spouse and children emigrated overseas.
