Chinese authorities have blocked the Chinese website of the New York Times and most access to the main website after it revealed that the extended family of premier Wen Jiabao has controlled assets worth at least $2.7bn.
Several
of Wen's close relatives have become extremely wealthy since his ascent
to the top leadership, the news organisation said. But in many cases
their holdings were obscured by layers of partnerships and investment
vehicles involving friends, colleagues or business partners.
