Communist party members in EY China asked to wear party badges in office

Members of the Communist party in EY China have been asked to wear the party badges to show their "political loyalty", a report by The Financial Times (FT) said. The demand was made by the party's branch committee at the company ahead of China's annual parliamentary meetings. 

The highly-political meeting will commence on March 5 and is expected to confirm Xi Jinping's third term as the president. The annual meeting will also see the appointment of new party officials. 

The committee sent the email to the party members at EY's Beijing headquarters on February 23, the FT report said. According
