BEIJING, March 7 (Xinhua) -- Shanghai Mayor Han Zheng said here Wednesday that the municipal authorities will draw lessons from the social security fund scandal and improve government service and responsibility.

The mayor, also acting Communist Party chief of Shanghai, made the remarks at a panel discussion of legislators from the metropolis during the annual full session of the National People's Congress (NPC), China's top legislature.

The municipal government has set the goal of building "a government of serves, a government with responsibility and a government ruled by law" through better supervision over administration and the improvement of political system, said Han.

Han said Shanghai gained good economic and social development last year with the resolute implementation of the macro-economic control policies of the central government and with the unswerving efforts to fight corruption.
