Of the 151,000 graft cases investigated in the past five years, about 4,800 cases involved bribes of at least 1 million yuan ($161,000) or embezzlement of at least 10 million yuan, the report added.
China's anti-corruption agencies have paid special attention to important and vulnerable sectors in the country's economic development, such as land use, property transactions, pharmaceutical sales, government purchases and public infrastructure projects, Cao said.
The agencies also looked into embezzlement and bribery related to food safety, education, social security, health care, poverty reduction and environmental protection, which are areas the public cares about most, he added.
