Politics of Hengyang
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Politics of Hengyang 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 Hengyang is the highest-ranking official in the People's Government of Hengyang or Hengyang 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 Hengyang, colloquially termed the "CCP Party Chief of Hengyang" or "Communist Party Secretary of Hengyang".
Because of one party dictatorship and no political enemies, Hengyang has become a serious area of corruption. One mayor and three CCP Committee Secretaries has been placed under investigation by the Chinese Communist Party's internal control body, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI).[1]
