        A year 160 academic conference, a pharmaceutical corporate sponsorship of 820 million yuan. Audit released in June audit report of the Chinese medical association, more than three months in the past, however, hasn't been any corrective information of Chinese medical association. (on October 13, xinhua news agency) 
 
        In the construction of "small government, big society", against the background of social organizations in unprecedented opportunities for development, has been high hopes. As China's social organizations, as well as one of the few in the industry association "old" in one hundred, the Chinese medical association that indescribable chemistry, or is not willing to say sweeping Ming 820 million yuan sponsorship money, really let a person dare not too optimistic to the social organization's quality. Is seen as a "national YaFang group" of the Chinese medical association, undoubtedly played a very bad demonstration effect. Hanging from the "Chinese" title, the social organization of 500000 - member still indifferent to the financial problems of the exposure, that other social organization suit. 
 
        Its superior departments who defend the planning department relevant personnel for the sponsorship, said is line with international practice. Admittedly, does industry association, the international academic conference on corporate sponsorship survival mode, but it is not only at the cost of losing fair and open society, more can't do something harm public interests. The presence of hundreds of millions of yuan sponsorship, is there any affect the fairness of the association, to make it only for a few big firms, afford to sponsor? More reports that the association sponsored drug firms to provide doctors contacts in return. Personal information as weight, which is international practice? 
 
        More with international practice, I'm afraid most sponsors are running behind the Chinese medical association of administrative power, public resources. The Chinese medical association not only perform their functions in the lead agency, there are a number of administrative color, has brought together the best doctors in the country. Drug firms deal or no deal, isn't really interested in meeting any academic achievements? Key at the meeting is in the hands of the medicine enterprise sales of vital key figures. Academic conference, I'm afraid I have alienated to the indemnification, money pr platform. 
 
        The Chinese medical association, the psychological quality good is outrageous, let the national audit department and shamed, social public opinion first stone, always a drag word tactic to deal with. Why do the Chinese medical association have skill "pack to sleep", mainly the accountability is not enough force. First of all, the administrative color is not completely remove, critical moment regulation does not reach the designated position, not only can even become a talisman. At present, the Chinese medical association of the competent department always keep silent, subordinate association naturally have the courage to play deaf, continue to be installed. Decentralization shouldn't put regulation, the competent department in time out "two steps", this should be the common sense of "small government, big society". 
 
        Second, still can she holds the accountability for the government, but to the social organization of accountability system condition is still far from perfect. "Social organic law" for the rights of commercial sponsorship, the basic problems such as the way of financial openness, accountability has fuzzy zone, to punish the hand of the natural hard up. Even if some places have lower rating organizations, government procurement points, but for the size of the social organization of Chinese medical association, is not painful not to itch, I'm afraid. Rigid, lack of legal society organizations make, as long as the competent department of quiet, endure a moment can be a calm, before long it is a "hero". Only promoting legislation, can completely plug the system vulnerability. 
 
        As a non-profit organization, the profitability of the Chinese medical association of strong, enough to make a lot of shame of the enterprise, but it cannot make the public not only happy, instead, let a person feel sad. At the end of the day, the social organization is in order to better promote social development and safeguard public interests. Credibility and public power can be converted to RMB, unexplained fall into the pockets of individuals or institutions, this is not our expectations of social organization. Is time, with rigid accountability to wake up the "sleeping" social organization.
