"We need to heighten the starting point for Bribery and Corruption Crimes", Zhang Jun, the vice-president of the Supreme People's Court, addressed at one university: "Starting point for Bribery and Corruption Crimes was 5,000 Yuan in 1997; however, 5,000 Yuan never means the same in 1997 and 2009, but there is no adjustment in legislation."

Some people consider that crime of Bribery and Corruption means the ruin to the integrity of officials, what it focuses never simply on how much of money has been pocketed, but the fact that corruption of officials caused by dishonest. The amount of money that comes from bribery should be the standard of penalty, but never be the standard of criminating or not. If 5,000 Yuan is not suitable to prevent officials from corrupting, does it work when the starting point is heightened to be 10,000 Yuan or 50,000 Yuan? Considering with the core of this crime, starting point seems to be useless apparently.

Recently, the suggestion of heightening the starting point for bribery and corruption crimes cause a great disturbance, though, our country punish those who bribe and corrupt severely, the truth is: phenomenon of corruption never disappear but become more and more rampant , people of our nation detest these corrupt officials.

As we know, as an official in government, then he has right in his hand, so, since he has right, he can make use of the right to make profits for himself.

The officials who were in bribery and corruption will never care about this small amount of 5000 yuan. To gain 5000 yuan just like a piece of cake for them. We can learn the similar information from various TV report, broadcasting, magazines. It is not a fresh thing in people's life. We all have the same experience in hearing someone had sentenced for many years due to his bribery and corruption. People are used to taking up these things gradually which will arouse protest in the past. But nowadays, there are too many cases about corruption in our society, which made us at loose ends.

In China, we always give money as a gift to people. So, we give this money to him, and he accepts it. This is very normal things, we don't enforce anybody, and both of us are voluntary. So, that is correct. So, country should set a limited for the "gift". If the "gift" of value beyond 5000RMB, that means receiver violate law. Yes, it's crime. It called crime of corruption.
