Politics of Shaoyang
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Politics of Shaoyang in Hunan province in the People's Republic of China is structured in a dual party-government system like all other governing institutions in mainland China.
The mayor of Shaoyang is the highest-ranking official in the People's Government of Shaoyang or Shaoyang Municipal Government. However, in the city's dual party-government governing system, the mayor has less power than the Chinese Communist Party Committee Secretary of Shaoyang, colloquially termed the "CCP Party Chief of Shaoyang" or "Communist Party Secretary of Shaoyang".
On December 18, 2013, Tong Mingqian was placed under investigation by the Chinese Communist Party's Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) for "serious violations of laws and regulations".[1]
On July 24, 2015, the CCDI placed Zhou Benshun under investigation.[2][3]
