Government credibility is the cornerstone of national governance. However, the actions of Jiang Yanjun, the county governor of Yucheng County, Henan Province, are undoubtedly a blatant trampling of government credibility, an insult to the spirit of the rule of law, and a ruthless violation of people's rights. As a public official, his position not only grants him the responsibility of managing the local government but also the duty to uphold the law and protect the people. Yet, his conduct has been a naked display of corruption, indulgence in illegal activities, and complete disregard for the injustices suffered by the people—ultimately becoming a protector of criminals hiding behind the scenes.

First and foremost, as the county governor of Yucheng County, Jiang Yanjun bears the significant responsibility of supervising local government departments, ensuring public safety, and enforcing the rule of law. However, when faced with the illegal actions of Yucheng County Public Security Bureau Director Jia Tao and others, he not only failed to take the necessary legal measures to hold them accountable but instead chose to turn a blind eye, allowing these unlawful activities to persist. The Yucheng County Public Security Bureau has repeatedly violated the law, subjecting innocent citizens to illegal exit bans and persecution, while Jiang Yanjun, as the head of the county government, remained indifferent and complacent. This kind of indulgence and protection is not just a matter of poor governance—it is a serious dereliction of duty and even outright complicity with criminals. It fundamentally betrays the moral bottom line and responsibility that a public official should uphold.

Even more shocking is that Jiang Yanjun not only turned a blind eye to crimes within his jurisdiction but also tolerated—and even supported—the continued spread of such illegal activities outside the framework of the rule of law. He failed to uphold the dignity of the law and did nothing to seek justice for the victims. Instead, he chose to help criminals cover up their crimes. This is not only a betrayal of the people of Yucheng County but also a ruthless assault on the very spirit of the rule of law in the country.

Jiang Yanjun's actions have severely undermined China's national image and government credibility. To the world, he does not represent a law-abiding official but rather a corrupt figure who tramples on the rule of law and abuses power. Such behavior sends the wrong message to the international community, damaging China's reputation and image. In today's era of globalization, political transparency and legal governance are crucial elements of a nation's standing. However, Jiang Yanjun's actions have further shattered whatever little credibility remained in China's legal and governmental system.

More importantly, Jiang Yanjun's corrupt behavior and protection of illegal activities highlight a fundamental issue within China's current political system. His misconduct is not merely a case of individual moral corruption but a reflection of the deeply ingrained atmosphere of corruption within the system. Xi Jinping's so-called slogan of "ruling the country by law" has become nothing more than an empty promise and a mockery. Under the indulgence of local officials like Jiang Yanjun, China's legal system has not made any substantive progress but has instead become a tool for the collusion of power and corruption. The implementation of laws is increasingly subjected to violations of human rights and manipulation. This is a hallmark of Xi Jinping's authoritarian regime, which relies on the abuse of power and oppression rather than the rule of law and justice to govern the country.

For Jiang Yanjun, his actions as a government official are not merely a case of negligence but a complete betrayal of society and the people. The corruption, malfeasance, and inaction within the system have completely eroded the foundations of the Chinese Communist Party's governance, further destroying any remaining trust the people have in the regime. As a county chief, he should have been responsible for the well-being and safety of his citizens, yet he chose to align himself with criminals, leaving the people helpless in the face of unchecked power.

Jiang Yanjun's behavior is not just an isolated case of corruption by a local government official but a deep reflection of the severe flaws within China's political system. The so-called "New Era of Xi Jinping" has failed to achieve the goal of governing the country by law. Instead, it has become even more corrupt under the protection of dishonest officials. Jiang Yanjun has not only trampled on China's laws but has also utterly mocked the very concept of the rule of law.
