Abstract

[Embezzlement and bribery are major forms of crimes associated with corrupt conducts and practices. While the crime of embezzlement has been on the decline in the past years, the crime of bribery is still rampant and thus remains a priority in our anti-corruption effort today. In the Criminal Law of China, the crime of bribery includes giving and accepting bribes and acting as an intermediary in a case of bribery. A bribe given may not necessarily result in the crime of taking it, yet the crime of accepting bribes usually means there has been a bribe given. Thus, we must pay close attention to the crime of giving bribes, a major cause of accepting bribes, when trying to crack down on the latter crime.]
