Beijing looks at laws on philanthropy

Beijing looks at laws on philanthropy: "BEIJING - The first national charity law is likely to be legislated in three years in China, a former official of the Ministry of Civil Affairs told China Daily.

Wang Zhenyao, former director of the Ministry of Civil Affairs' social welfare and charities department, said the draft was submitted to the Legislative Affairs Office of the State Council last year for further revision.

'The legislation is highly possible in next three years as both the National People's Congress and the society have a lot of concern on the matter,' said Wang, who was in charge of drafting the charity law when he worked for the ministry."
