Health bribery scandals?

What about the bribery scandals involving GSK and Sanofi? [1][2] --Signimu (talk) 22:33, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Countermeasures section seems to lack neutrality and one of the sources is being used a little too generously for how outdated it is

[edit]

Initially noticed the section due to some biased wording ("The CPC has tried a variety of anti-corruption measures, constructing a variety of laws and agencies in an attempt to stamp out corruption, but almost none have been proven to be even mildly effective."), but I'm confused at a source in this section being used over and over. Source 21 (Michael Johnston, "Corruption in China: Old Ways, New Realities and a Troubled Future", United Nations Public Administration Network. Retrieved January 29, 2010) is almost twenty years old and seems like a somewhat outdated source to continuously reference in a section like Countermeasures, considering the advent of a large anti-corruption campaign was created in 2012. Also, the Means section fails to attribute a full-quote to an author, but I'm new to Wikipedia and not sure if I should amend the quotation marks or remove it entirely since the two sentences are a direct-quote.

Means section: "The PLA has also become a major economic player, and participant in large- and small-scale corruption at the same time. Inconsistent tax policy, and a politicised and poorly organised banking system, create ample opportunities for favouritism, kickbacks, and "outright theft," according to Michael Johnston, Professor of Political Science at Colgate University in Hamilton, New York."

Sourced material: "The People's Liberation Army has become a major economic player -- and participant in corruption both grand and petty -- in its own right. Changing and inconsistently-enforced tax policies, and a politicized, poorly-organized system of banking and finance, create numerous opportunities for favoritism, kickbacks, and outright theft. "

Perhaps Countermeasures section could include links to some of the "See Also" articles like this

Could someone let me know if there's an established way of going about editing a section that leans in too heavily on outdated info? Also confused at the citations section, it looks like citation styles are used indiscriminately but not sure which style was used first. Coldcough (talk) 09:55, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Page move suggestion

[edit]

Any validity to move this page to Corruption in China to have corruption under the People's Republic to be its own section, and include other historical instances of corruption, as surely corruption in China existed before its current government.
