Picture
a vast Chinese state institution with around two million staff,
comprising a baffling array of units and sub-departments all scattered
across the country. Under the guise of
a sweeping, rapid modernization plan
this institution’s budget expands so quickly – to around $100 billion a
year – that it is hard for anyone to keep track of how much is really
being spent, or on what. All the while, the institution’s sprawling
nature and its near-autonomy mean that it operates almost entirely
without accountability or oversight: There is only the money, and the
many pockets into which it disappears.
