回复：关于党员最后一贴：如果严格依法办事

Hi VB,

May I know why you say "即使出国5年，你现在仍是党员，而非“前党员” 。"
Here is the some excerpt from the CONSTITUTION OF THE COMMUNIST PARTY OF CHINA. Chapter 1, Article 9.

A Party member who fails to take part in regular Party activities, pay membership dues or do work assigned by the Party for six successive months without good reason is regarded as having given up membership. The general membership meeting of the Party branch concerned shall decide on the removal of such a person's name from the Party rolls and report it to the next higher Party organization for approval.
