A Chinese official has been arrested after his wife discovered a diary containing hundreds of his sexual escapades, and the bribes he had allegedly taken to pay for them.

The unnamed 47-year-old official, the head of a state-backed company in the Eastern city of Anqing, claimed in his diary to have slept with 500 women and was aiming to take the notches on his bedpost to "between 600 and 800".

Almost all of the women were prostitutes, and in order to fund his proclivity, the official allegedly took huge bribes. "He was busy eight hours a day looking for bribes, and then another eight hours looking for sex,"

In the southern city of Dongguan, prosecutors said in 2008 that four out of every five corrupt officials kept a mistress.

I’m glad American politicians are different than Chinese politicians.

This is the perfect bureaucrat - one who has found a hobby that takes up so much time that he has no time (or energy) left to screw up policy.

I need to go back to Taiwan, but I doubt I will get to go again for the project.

The sheer volume of women who hang around the subway station near the Sogo stores is enough to make you want to stay in Taipei.

typical politician, screwing the people over.
at least this one does it on an individual level.

He's like the Chinese Gene Simmons!

[Kartographer]

I wonder if he has ever tried his hand at golf? ;-)

[fieldmarshaldj]

Well, when you go back there, bring me back one. Pretty please ?

after his wife discovered a diary ...

Sleezy politician rule #1: Don't create evidence.

Sleezy politician rule #2: If you violate rule #1 don't leave it lying around.

[Perdogg]

I promise!

[Billthedrill]

Huh. So when did this busy little feller find time to sleep, anyhows?

[wideminded]

The sheer volume of women who hang around the subway station near the Sogo stores ...

Are these the same type of women referred to in the article?

Barney's Frank has probably bagged a couple hundred women in freeway bathroom stalls around the country.

[Perdogg]

no, these are good girls who come from good families.

When you’re living in a totalitarian, atheistic society with little accountability as a government official, it’s hard to figure out a productive way to spend your time...

"He was busy eight hours a day looking for bribes, and then another eight hours looking for sex,"

Pretty much my life in a nutshell.
