The chairman of the board and communist party secretary of China’s state-owned automobile manufacturer FAW Group Corporation, Xu Jianyi, was put under investigation for “severe violations of discipline and of the law,” by the Chinese regime’s central anti-graft watchdog on March 15.
FAW (First Automotive Works) is a Chinese equivalent to Ford—it employs about 132,000 people.
The announcement was published on the website of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection just hours after the closing of the political session of the regime’s National People’s Congress in Beijing.
