The CCP had carried out several rectification campaigns, of which the "Three-anti" was also incorporated. The war to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea had put the People’s Republic of China（PRC） into a financial dilemma; the CCP launched a campaign to increase production and practice economy. This campaign revealed serious issues of corruption, waste and bureaucracy, which then brought about the "Three-anti" campaign by the CCP. They convened mobilization meetings country-wide and submitted reports. The conflict got excessively intense as the campaign became fierce, the result was to affect the financial institutions and slow down the economy. To implement the "Three-anti" thoroughly and to defeat the bourgeoisie, the CCP launched concurrently the "Five-anti" among the industrial and commercial sectors. After the focus had shifted to the "Five-anti", they started to rectify the problems from the "Three-anti." The Chinese Communist enacted a series of rules and regulations against the "Three-anti." While in the construction stage, they clarified the relationships with the bourgeoisie, criticize their thoughts and to incorporate measures to rectify the party, as well as to undertake the organization and construction of the system. The "Three-anti" and "Five-anti" officially came to the end in late October, 1952. The CCP identified the "Three-anti" as to improve its art of leadership and governance, to retrieve the massive loss of the economy and to make integrity a new culture of the society. Nevertheless, after the Chinese CCP had established the government, the "Three-anti" and "Five-anti" turned out to be the reasons that endanger their officials and the economy of the country. In general, the CCP did not seek to find the resolutions from the system as a whole. After the "Three-anti" campaign, their fights against corruption, waste and bureaucracy still go on.
