BEIJING (Reuters) - Fixing the corruption problem in China's ruling Communist Party is "world class hard" and the battle will never end, the country's top graft-buster told Singapore's prime minister in a rare meeting with a visiting foreign leader.

Wang Qishan, who heads the party's Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, has been at the forefront of President Xi Jinping's fight against deep-seated corruption, and speculation has swirled about whether he will retire or stay on at next month's key party Congress.
