Extravagant eating and drinking, abusing power and joining golf clubs are among the activities banned in the latest update to the The Chinese Communist Party's discipline rules.
This means that 88 million Chinese people have been discouraged from joining golf clubs, according to the Xinhua News Agency. Violators could be warned or removed from the party.
It's not apparent why joining golf clubs is banned in China, but the Chinese public sees private clubs as places where officials could make seedy deals or abuse power, according to the BBC.
About 60 state employees were punished for spending public money on golf in September, according to local media.
