It has alwaysbeen a highlight concerned by the entire society. This problem has becomeserious hidden trouble for the ruling party and keenly felt pain for civiliansand has caused uneasiness to all circles in the society. To make acomprehensive survey of the experience in struggle against corruption for thelast thirteen years, a serious issue can be found, which deserves closeattention, i.e. corruption of "the first in command". It is rather importantlymeaningful to study effective supervision on "the first in command".The corruption problem of "the first in command"is quite seriouscurrently. From "the first in command"in party or government, who has greatpower in hand, to "the first in command"in a unit or an enterprise, there arecases that they fall down due to corruption problem. In the new situation,corruption of "the first in command"is featured by "hot spot", "complex","peripherization", "group", "tabloid"and "family".
