【新唐人2014年11月19日訊】中共總書記習近平日前到澳洲參加G20峰會，週旋於各國首腦之間。但同時，中共軍事紀律檢查委員會統一部署行動，對軍隊一批將領採取措施，海軍副政委馬發祥中將跳樓身亡。消息引發關注。為何官至中將軍銜的馬發祥要選擇走上這樣一條不歸路呢？請看報導。
17號，香港《南華早報》從知情者那裏得到消息說，中共海軍副政委馬發祥13號在北京的海軍大院跳樓身亡。
接近中共軍委辦公廳的消息人士對《博訊》透露說，馬發祥是於11月13號上午辦公時間，接到軍委紀委通知他前去談話後，縱身從15層高樓跳下的。
香港《蘋果日報》引述消息指出，跳樓的海軍中將馬發祥，涉案前軍委副主席郭伯雄，他們倆是陝西老鄉。而且消息還稱，江澤民「軍中最愛」的徐才厚，他的親信、原總政治部主任李繼耐上將也可能出事。目前他的多位手下將領已經被立案調查。
不過，北京一名前海軍退休軍官匿名向《南華早報》透露，與大老虎徐才厚相比，馬發祥的案子，甚至連早先被判死緩的原海軍副司令員王守業的案子，都不值得一提。王守業貪污公款1.6億元人民幣，他在2007年4月被判死緩。
徐才厚曾擔任中共軍委副主席，他也是自習近平上臺以來，以貪腐名義打掉的最高軍隊官員。
《南早》同時提及說，2個多月前，另一名海軍將領，時任南海艦隊裝備部長的姜中華少將，在老家浙江舟山跳樓身亡。
時事評論員邢天行：「選擇自殺的路對他們來講，是最合適的一條路，這是這些軍隊腐敗高官的一個選擇。因為他一旦自殺以後，他掩蓋了其他人的腐敗線索。」
時事評論員邢天行表示，從以往很多的案件中看出，中共貪官自殺後，他周圍的人和家人就受到了保護，不會再被深挖並處理。所以貪官們看到自己避不開時，就會選擇自殺。
事實上，在10月份就有四名中共廳級高官自殺，包括甘肅省農辦任副主任楊克忠﹔廣西人大外事華僑委員會主任委員陳利丹﹔遼寧省高級法院副院長徐安生，以及遼寧省殘聯黨組書記任志偉。
今年6月份的英國《經濟學人》雜誌則指出，中國公民整體自殺率在下降，但官員的自殺人數卻顯著上升。調查顯示，自2013年年初以來，至少有62起公開報導的官員或國有企業僱員「非正常死亡」，其中至少32起是自殺。
《經濟學人》的文章還說，習近平的反腐使中共官員憂心忡忡。
其實，習近平最近在「新古田會議」上揚言，要肅清徐才厚在軍隊遺毒，全面鋪開反腐。隨後，就有消息指多名中共軍隊將領在近期應聲落馬。
據《博訊》披露，習近平飛赴澳洲參加G20峰會期間，中共軍紀委奉命動手，對軍隊一批涉媒貪腐的將領採訪黨紀措施，其中就包括剛剛在海軍總部跳樓身亡的馬發祥﹔北京軍區戰友文工團團長、著名男高音歌唱家劉斌少將，他涉案徐才厚和湯燦案件﹔總後勤部副部長劉錚少將，他涉嫌向徐才厚買官﹔總政聯絡部長邢運明少將、總政保衛部長於善軍少將也都被捕。
其他落馬的還有，吉林省軍區副政委宋玉文少將﹔原黑龍江省軍區司令寇鐵少將﹔湖北省軍區原司令苑世軍少將﹔瀋陽軍區原聯勤部長王愛國少將。
《蘋果日報》還引用海外的報導說，徐才厚出事後，已有近200名軍隊現役或退休將領被當局調查。但這一消息尚無法確認。
大陸時事觀察人士華頗：「習近平要想把牢槍桿子，必須要對軍隊進行清洗。前一陣子他將各大軍區、各個省軍區還有集團軍的軍事主管等等，進行了對調，就是為了更好的掌控軍隊。」
大陸時事觀察人士華頗指出，習近平拉開軍隊反腐帷幕，就是要對不可靠的人清理，以便他全面掌控軍隊。
邢天行則表示，習近平上臺前，軍隊、政法系統，都掌控在江澤民派繫手中，不僅軍隊政法系統腐敗氾濫，而且還讓習近平在「薄王」事件中知道了他面臨的危險。所以，習近平為了保命，用反腐的名義在政法系統打掉周永康、在軍隊除掉徐才厚，都是必須的步驟。

Why Did Ma Faxiang, Naval Deputy Political Commissar
Jump To His Death?
Chinese Communist Party (CCP) General Secretary Xi
Jinping attended the G20 Summit in Australia.
While he was overseas the CCP Military Commission for
Discipline Inspection planed a unified deployment to carry
out actions against a group of military generals.
Deputy Political Commissar of the Navy Lieutenant General
Ma Faxiang jumped off a building and died.
Why did Ma Faxiang in such a position
choose to take such a path?
On Nov. 17, Hong Kong’s South China Morning Post got
insider news about Ma Faxiang.
The insider with close contact to CCP Military Committee
Office told Buxun that Ma Faxiang jumped off the building
on the morning of Nov.13 at the Beijing Navy Compound.
He was at work and received a notice from the CCP Military
Commission for Discipline Inspection to have a conversation.
He then jumped from a 15 story high building.
Hong Kong Apple Daily quoted sources that Ma Faxiang was
involved with former Vice Chairman of the Central Military
Commission Guo Boxiong, who were fellows from Sha’anxi
Province.
The source also said that Jiang Zemin’s “Favorite in the
Military" Xu Caihou’s close subordinate, former General
Political Department Director Li Jinai might also be in trouble.
Currently many of his team members are being investigated.
However, a retired naval officer in Beijing told South China
Morning Post that, compared with “the big tiger Xu Caihou",
Ma Faxiang or former Navy Deputy Commander Wang
Shouye with a suspended death penalty are insignificant.
Wong Shouye embezzled 160 million yuan of public funds.
He received a suspended death sentence in April 2007.
Xu Caihou once served as Vice Chairman of the
CCP Central Military Commission.
He is the highest level military officer taken down
in name of corruption after Xi Jinping came to power.
South China Morning Post also stated that another Navy
officer, leader of South China Sea Fleet Department of
Logistics, Major General Jiang Zhonghua killed himself by
jumping off a building in his hometown, Zhejiang Province.
Commentator Xing Tianxing, “Suicide is the solution that
works best for them.
This is a choice for these corrupt army officials.
Because once he committed suicide, he would help
cover up the clues to others involved."
Xing Tianxing said cases seen in the past indicate once a
corrupt CCP official committed suicide, his family and
those around him are protected and there will no longer
be any more digging.
So corrupt officials choose to commit suicide when
they could not avoid investigations.
In fact four department-level CCP officials committed
suicide in October alone;
These include deputy director of Gansu Provincial
Agriculture Office Yang Kezhong;
Guangxi People’s Congress Foreign Affairs
director Chen Lidan;
Deputy President of Liaoning Province
Senior Court Xu Aisheng, and
Liaoning Province Handicapped Union
Party Secretary Ren Zhiwei.
UK magazine The Economist pointed out in its June issue,
Chinese citizens’ overall suicide rate is declining.
However the number of officials committing suicide
has increased greatly.
Since the beginning of 2013, there are at least 62 publicly
reported “unnatural deaths" of officials or employees of
state-owned enterprises, in which at least 32 cases are suicide.
The Economist also stated Xi Jinping’s anti-corruption
makes Chinese officials worried.
Xi Jinping said during the recent “New Gutian Conference"
he would eliminate the legacy of Xu Caihou in the army.
He planned to carry out full scale anti-corruption.
Soon after there was news that several CCP generals
will be dismissed in the near future.
According to Boxun, during Xi Jinping’s trip to Australia
to attend the G20 summit, the CCP Military Commission for
Discipline Inspection ordered interviews for disciplinary
measures with a group of army generals involved in corruption.
This included Ma Faxiang who died at the Navy Compound.
Others on the list were; Beijing Military Comrades Art Group
Leader, Major General;
Famous tenor Liu Bin who was involved in the Xu Caihou
and Tang Can’s cases;
Deputy Minister of the General Logistics Ministry and Major
General Liu Zheng thought to buy his title from Xu Caihou;
General Political Ministry Liaison Minister and
Major General Xing Yunming;
General Political Ministry Security leader and Major General
Yu Shanjun were also arrested.
Other officers who were knocked down are;
Deputy Political Commissar of Jilin Military Region,
Major General Song Yuwen;
Former Military Commander of Heilongjiang Province,
Major General Kou Tie;
Hubei Province Military Commander, Major General Yuan
Shijun, and former Shenyang Military Region Minister of
Logistics, Major General Wang Aiguo.
Apple Daily quoted overseas information that after the
Xu Caihou case, nearly 200 current or retired officials
have been put under investigation. But there is no
confirmation on this piece of news.
Hua Po, “Xi Jinping must cleanse the military
in order to hold tightly onto the army.
Recently he swapped leaders of military regions, armies of
each province and military troops, to better control the army."
Hua Po pointed out Xi Jinping’ anti-corruption campaign
in the army is just to clean up unreliable people.
It’s to gain full control of the army.
Xing Tianxing said, before Xi Jinping took power, military,
political and legal system were under Jiang Zemin’s faction.
They are not only rampant in corruption, but Xi Jinping
also realized his dangerous situation from the Bo Xilai
and Wang Lijun cases.
In order to survive, Xi Jingping brought down
Zhou Yongkang.
He then removed Xu Caihou from the military in name of
anti-corruption. These are all necessary steps.
