Three officials in Shanghai’s Baoshan District were disciplined for dereliction of duty after spoiled supplies meant for guaranteed essentials were not distributed to residents

On May 1st, Mr. Zhang, a resident of Baoshan District, told reporters that on April 30th, residents of Sitang Fourth Village in Zhangmiao Subdistrict, Baoshan District, discovered that the village committee was loading a batch of guaranteed supply materials onto a garbage truck for removal. Upon verification, the subdistrict committee had temporarily stored the remaining supplies—left after household distribution—in the backyard of the committee office, which caused some of the supplies to rot and spoil. Subsequently, three subdistrict officials were disciplined for negligence and dereliction of duty in the distribution of guaranteed supplies.
