All 1,056 officials in Altay prefecture in the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region who declared their income as part of the latest anti-corruption moves said they did not accept any valuable gifts from organizations or individuals related to their work, declarations publicized online showed yesterday.

"This is a reminder to officials, for them to improve their self-discipline and control to prevent corruption," Wu Weiping, Party secretary of the Altay prefecture discipline inspection commission, told Beijing News yesterday.

A total of 1,064 Altay county- and division-level officials in Altay are affected by requirements to declare their income starting this year, but eight have not responded yet, Wu said. Of these, three were arrested for corruption before the requirement came into effect, three postponed their submissions because they were traveling and two are on medical leave.
