Ministry of Supervision, human resources and Social Security, the National Bureau of Statistics recently announced a joint "Statistics Regulations, violations of law." Since the requirement on May 1 will come into effect, which is China's first violations of law on statistical aspects of the sector regulations punishment.

Now the reason why the statistical data to separate out a department regulations, precisely because in reality there are a lot of data where the existence of false. In that case, why was it reported false data? Statisticians business is not fine it? The reason may be, but the technical level to deal with the problem. I do not even get to the bottom of the distortion of statistical data is the root cause behind. In fact, the evaluation of the existing system, often have clear indicators, each indicator has specific data, and data a position behind. This relates to the performance of officials, as well as "the official data" reality. Reported false data to benefit from and do not need to make too much effort, as long as the pen to draw the head has become so easy, how can we ensure that the data does not leave? To hold non-fraud statistics, not the bottom line of false data, introduction of "violations of law and Statistics Regulations," is very necessary.

The distortion of statistical data is not how difficult it? Data to the true, the statisticians we need to stick to their own ethics and conscience. At the same time, explicitly to punish counterfeiters, the more the people telling the truth, report the number of true confidence, there must be institutional and legal backing for its. If someone reported a meeting with some people really mind the different data would be against their interests, then no matter how good other people can not adhere to professional ethics. Of course, also removed most of the data behind the data-distortion performance and the number of the official appraisal of the examination.

Fear of rain, but it is a fake flower. "Violations of law and Statistics Regulations," point to the false, the data statistics, and have a moral stand, and more importantly, the independence of the work.
