According to the report, Mr. A, a person familiar with the matter, said that Luo Changfa added his wife, Huang Yuhua, to the group of“Purchasing groups” under the pretext of handling“Mission-based procurement matters.” Instead, his subordinates were given round-the-clock access to Huang’s work, including cleaning the swimming pool and maintaining the flower beds. He was also asked to supervise the laying of floors and pulling weeds in shifts that had nothing to do with official duties.
Huang also accused local employees of violating the“Procurement Law” and leaving early, demanding that Luo be fired, but in fact leaving Early was also a request by Huang to drive her to the store in her official car, the person said. Mr. A said that Huang also asked an employee who was fluent in Chinese and French to act as a translator because he did not speak French. However, he suspected that the translation was too short and the employee did not translate verbatim. Huang humiliated the employee on the spot and made the other party cry. In addition, Luo was also charged with requiring employees to take out household garbage, using public funds to reimburse personal cleaning supplies, occupation of official cars used as private cars, and so on.
