A famous Chinese writer has recently revealed that he was aware of Tian Fengshan's corruption at least two years ago, following reports that the official had been removed from the post of Minister of Land and Resources.

The writer says he made the dishonest official a central character of a TV drama that was aired two years ago, but did not reveal his name at that time.

An article in the Nanfang Metropolitan News regards the late exposure as a thought-provoking issue.

The article notes some people that are aware of inside information are unwilling to unmask corruption because they fear they will suffer dire consequences.

Therefore, the article points out in order to encourage ordinary people to involve themselves in anti-corruption campaigns, crooked officials under public exposure should be dismissed or dealt with betimes. This way, the citizens' interests will be well represented and guaranteed.
