  The MOF said the 2017 budget will give a priority to funding important overseas visits, reception of foreign guests, as well as participation in international meetings.
  财政部称,2017年“三公”经费预算将重点保障重要出访、外事接待和参加国际会议。
  In addition, central departments will need to replace their vehicles with greener cars in line with Beijing's policy on emission reduction, the MOF said.
  此外,中央部门将需根据北京市减排政策把公务用车更新成更为环保的车辆。
  China has long been bedeviled by officials using their expenses accounts to travel in the name of official visits, use work vehicles on personal errands, and enjoy luxurious receptions and accommodation.
  长期以来,中国一直受困于政府官员以正式访问的名义利用报销账单旅行、以个人私事为由使用工作车辆以及享受豪华的招待和住宿。
  However, the frugality campaign launched by central authorities is driving down the expenses in a bid to build a cleaner and more transparent government.
  不过,由中央政府发起的厉行节约运动,正在降低这部分费用,以构建一个更加清洁、更加透明的政府。
