Word of the Week—Corruption by Low-level Officials Who Engage in an Astonishing Number of Bribery and Money-for-position Deals
【词义解释】
“小官巨腐”一词最早出现在2014年7月9日，中央第二巡视组进驻北京市领导班子进行巡视反馈时提到的，是指在基层权力部门工作的干部，利用职务之便，在关系群众切身利益领域出现的贪腐行为。这种贪腐行为在决策工程项目、物资采购、公款支出及人员进出等环节问题尤为突出。英文可翻译为corruption by low-level officials who engage in an astonishing number of bribery and money-for-position deals。
【背景资料】
十八大以来中央巡视组已开展四轮巡视，巡视发现，巡视点存在“小官贪腐”问题的占比超过了四分之一。11月12日，新华社报道一个名叫马超群的“小官”屡受关注，他的职务是河北省秦皇岛市北戴河供水公司总经理，但家中查出的现金达1.2亿元，黄金37公斤，68套房产手续。这组令人震惊的数字，再次提高了看似低级别官员的“身价”纪录，轻而易举将数月前巡视组通报的几起“小官巨腐”主角甩在身后。
【例句】
中央纪委监察部表示，一些地方乡村干部腐败问题凸显，“小官巨腐”问题严重。
Corruption by low-level officials who engage in an astonishing number of bribery and money-for-position deals remain the most serious one among problems involved in the campaign against corruption at junior local government, according to the top anti-graft body.
