(Reuters) - China's three most powerful men have come up with preferred
candidates to head up the nation's new leadership, sources said, in a group
that includes financial reformers but leaves a question mark over its
commitment to political reform.
The seven-member list has been drawn up by past, present and future
presidents ahead of a once-in-a-decade leadership change to be finalized
next month at the ruling Communist Party's 18th congress, said three sources
with ties to senior party leaders.
They said former President Jiang Zemin, current President Hu Jintao and Hu's
likely successor, Xi Jinping, have forged a consensus on candidates for the
top decision-making body, the Politburo Standing Committee - a move that
could pave the way for a smooth selection process after months of political
tumult.
Their list - still subject to opposition and change by other party elders -
envisages a Standing Committee cut to seven from nine and headed by Xi and
Premier-designate Li Keqiang, 57, who is considered the only other certainty
to make the top team.
A smaller committee would make it easier for Xi, 59, to establish his
authority and push through badly needed reforms, the sources said. They
noted that the preferred list would include Vice Premier Wang Qishan, 64, a
darling of foreign investors who currently runs the finance portfolio.
However, the ticket omits one of the party's most outspoken political
reformers, Wang Yang, 57, party boss of southern Guangdong province. A
contender, he is viewed by many in the West as a beacon of political reform
due to his relative tolerance of freer speech and grassroots civil rights.
Instead, the ticket includes Liu Yunshan, 65, the party's propaganda
minister, who has kept domestic media on a tight leash and sought to control
China's increasingly unruly Internet which has more than 500 million users.
"Hu Jintao would like Wang Yang off the Standing Committee, because he's too
reformist, too much risk of significant change," said David Zweig, a
political scientist at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.
However, he said the list was well balanced with candidates conscious of the
need for reform, though likely to move slower on political than economic
reforms. "I'm a believer that this group is going to move fairly quickly for
change," Zweig added.
The other preferred candidates on the list stand out more for their internal
party alliances than any declared reformist credentials: Li Yuanchao, 61,
who heads the party's powerful organization department; Zhang Dejiang, 65,
who took over as party boss of southwestern Chongqing from deposed one-time
contender Bo Xilai; and Zhang Gaoli, 65, party chief of Tianjin.
Judging the appetite of individuals for political reform is difficult. It
could be dangerous for candidates to openly declare their stance at this
stage, though Zhang Gaoli along with Wang Qishan are financial reformers by
nature and Li has shaken up his own department with meritocratic-style
reforms.
Most of the preferred candidates are seen as close to both Jiang, who at 86
still commands an influential party power base, and Hu, 69, said the sources
, speaking on condition of anonymity.
"It was a collective decision by Hu, Xi and Jiang, but party elders have the
right of veto," one source said.
PRESSURE FOR FASTER REFORM
A list with the overall backing of such powerful figures could reduce
internal tensions over the selection process, though the preferred
candidates still face possible veto by other party elders, such as former
premier and parliament chief Li Peng. They also need to survive some
ruthless backroom politicking, where allegations of sleaze or corruption can
suddenly end a candidate's run at the 11th hour.
The new committee is likely to be finalized by the outgoing Central
Committee at its seventh and last plenum which convenes on November 1, a
week before the start of the congress on November 8.
Xi's new administration is under pressure to accelerate the pace of economic
and political reform to answer calls for more economic equality, a less
dominant state sector, more developed capital markets, better living
standards for migrant workers, freer speech and a crackdown on endemic
corruption.
Critics of outgoing President Hu's decade in office say failure to pick up
the pace of reform could lead to social unrest and pose a longer-term threat
to one-party rule.
The make-up of the Standing Committee is critically important to overall
policy direction because it runs by consensus, unlike executive government
in many other nations where final decisions are made by the top leader.
Forging consensus could be all the more challenging given the party has been
rocked this year by its biggest political scandal in three decades - the
murder of a British businessman by the wife of ambitious politician Bo Xilai
, who drew support from leftists critical of aspects of China's market-based
reform agenda.
Bo's ouster has exposed deep rifts in the party between his leftist backers,
who are nostalgic for the revolutionary era of Mao Zedong, and those who
advocate faster market reforms.
The allocation of portfolio responsibilities among Standing Committee
members will not be unveiled until March, when they formally take up the
reins of government.
Other candidates not on the preferred list but still seen as a possibility
include Guangdong's Wang Yang and Liu Yandong, 66, a state councilor with
responsibility for health, education and sport, who would become the
committee's first woman since 1949.
Shanghai party boss Yu Zhengsheng, 67, is also a candidate despite his age.
His impeccable communist pedigree made him a rising star until his brother,
an intelligence official, defected to the United States in the mid-1980s.
