CHINA will push for a unified real estate registration system in all cities and counties by the end of the year, state media said on Sunday. The move is seen as a major step in the fight against corruption.
China's plan for a nationwide property database, once hailed as an antidote to corruption, stalled in the face of resistance from local governments - highlighting the difficulty Beijing faces in driving through reforms to tackle widespread graft.
