The Ministry of Public Security is proposing to introduce real-name registrations for express deliveries in the country, following the example of Zhejiang province's Shaoxing county.
According to a report by the Hangzhou-based Qianjiang Evening News on Monday, the Ministry of Public Security will hold a conference in Shaoxing county later this year to promote the real-name registration of express deliveries.
That decision followed a parcel explosion in an office of the Yuantong Express Company in downtown Hangzhou, Zhejiang's provincial capital, on Aug 14. The explosion left two female employees slightly injured.
The incident raised concerns about the lack of supervision over the country's fast-growing express delivery industry.
The exact date of the conference is yet to be confirmed.
The Zhejiang Narcotics Control Association imposed a real-name registration system among the 25 express delivery companies in Shaoxing on June 10, 2010, aimed at cracking down on drug trafficking.
"The procedures are the same even when we collect mail or parcels from the customers. We would rather not do business with the customers if they refuse to show identity cards," said a manager, surnamed Fang, at Shentong's Shaoxing branch.
Xinchang county, which neighbors Shaoxing county, has introduced similar measures.
Yu Zhuoping, customer manager at Shentong Express Xinchang branch, said workers there ask customers to present their identity cards before sending any mail.
"For safety's sake, we will open every letter or parcel. For any parcels that we find to be suspect, we will ask the senders to come to our sales lobby with a safety certificate," she said.
