How Can Local Officials Engage in Corruption During Demolition

1. Illegally splitting households to receive more relocation compensation — it’s just a matter of manipulating the records.

2. Inflating demolition area — with bribes, any claimed square footage can be counted as valid area for compensation.

3. Those who give gifts get first pick of the relocation apartments.

4. Senior supervisors accept a cut of the illicit proceeds from subordinates.
