The Unirule Institute of Economics released "Promoting Open Government Information An Investigation in Beijing, Guiyang and Yinchuan” on July 12th, 2012 . Prof. Mao Yushi, honorary chairman of Unirule, Prof. Feng Xingyuan, Deputy Director of Unirule and researcher Mr. Zhang Lin of academic department participated in the conference.

 

In order to promote open government information, the Unirule Institute of Economics investigated Guiyang, Yinchuan and Beijing through expert questionnaire research on information disclosure status from Feb. to May 2012. The respondents were scholars, teachers, civil servants and businessmen. The survey questionnaire concluded a lot of no well-defined content of "Regulations on the Disclosure of Government Information”. The content was divided into seven sections: cadres’ information transparency, financial information transparency, administrative decision-making information transparency, public service information transparency, social security information transparency, government enterprise information transparencyand civil-rights information transparency. The research results were very similar in three different regions. Governments did well in the information transparency of social security and public service which was closely related to citizens' daily life, but not well in the disclosing of cadres information, civil-rights and administrative decision-making.

 

The conclusion of the research indicates that the existing information disclosure condition cannot meet the higher level needs of citizens' rights. The government also lacks the willingness to disclose public information. Unirule uses this report to appeal to greater attention on government information disclosure to civil, society and government, and gradually breakthrough the drawbacks of stability maintenance system, then actually guarantee the citizens' right to know, right to expression and right to participation.
