Five senior officials were appointed Tuesday in the corruption-plagued north China's Shanxi Province, local authorities said.
The standing committee of the Shanxi provincial committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC), the decision-making body in the coal-rich province, announced the appointments made by the CPC Central Committee.
Huang Xiaowei, former vice minister of Supervision, was appointed a member of the standing committee of the CPC Shanxi provincial committee and secretary of the provincial commission for discipline inspection, the anti-graft watchdog.
Huang's predecessor Li Zhaoqian was removed from the post.
Four others were also appointed members of the standing committee of the CPC Shanxi provincial committee. They are Wu Zhenglong, former secretary general of the CPC Chongqing municipal committee, Sun Shaocheng, former vice governor of Shandong, Wang Weizhong, former vice minister of Science and Technology, and Fu Jianhua, former vice director of the State Administration of Work Safety.
Fu Jianhua was also nominated as vice governor of Shanxi.
A handful of senior officials in Shanxi, including five members of the standing committee of the CPC Shanxi provincial committee, had been put under investigation for disciplinary violations.
