The county, which was just lifted out of poverty, had the county party secretary build a luxurious toilet, according to an official report.

Recently, the Jilin Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision publicly reported on 4 typical cases of formalism and bureaucracy. Specifically: 1. Former Secretary and Director of the Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, Li Deming, ignored the local reality and engaged in "image projects" that wasted money and hurt the people. In May 2020, while serving as the Secretary of the Tongyu County Party Committee, Li Deming, in pursuit of personal political achievements, disregarded the objective fact that Tongyu County had once been a key county for national poverty alleviation and a province-level severely impoverished county. Despite just completing the poverty alleviation and facing financial difficulties, he unilaterally changed the design plan for a new public restroom project in the urban area, expanded the construction area, carried out luxurious decoration, and doubled the cost compared to the budget, far exceeding the local economic development level. Li Deming also has other serious violations of discipline and laws, and is currently under disciplinary review and supervision investigation by the Jilin Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision. 2. Former member of the Liaoyuan City Committee and former Secretary of the Dongfeng County Committee, Zeng Haiyang, blindly started projects that did not fit the local reality, leading to "political achievement projects". From May 2018 to December 2024, during his tenure as the Dongfeng County Magistrate and Secretary, Zeng Haiyang, with a distorted view on achievements and contrary to the new development concept, disconnected from the local reality, sought instant success, and blindly borrowed money to invest a huge amount of funds in the construction of the "Dongfeng International Sika Deer Industry Innovation and Investment Park" project. Since its completion at the end of 2022, only a few companies have moved in, and the project has been in serious deficit for a long time, causing a serious burden on finances. Zeng Haiyang also has other serious violations of discipline and laws, and is currently under disciplinary review and supervision investigation by the Jilin Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision. 3. Former Secretary of the Lin industry Bureau of Tonghua City, Yu Fengxiang, acted recklessly during the disposal of sick trees, leading to serious ecological damage in the area. From November 2023 to April 2024, during the process of disposing of sick trees, Yu Fengxiang violated relevant national regulations, arbitrarily expanded the scope of felling and clearing, leading to large-scale logging and illegal logging beyond the permitted range, causing significant losses to the local area. Yu Fengxiang also has other serious violations of discipline and laws, has been expelled from the party and dismissed from public office, and has been transferred to the procuratorate for investigation and prosecution for suspected crimes. 4. The Office of the Government of Nongan County was negligent and slow in addressing the demands of the masses in handling petitions. From November 2023 to May 2024, after receiving a report on issues related to the quality and delay of the construction of the second phase of the "Peach Blossom Source" relocation project in Helong Town, Nongan County, from higher authorities, the Nongan County government did not pay enough attention to the urgent needs of the masses, did not schedule and track promptly, resulting in the prolonged unresolved issues, sparking significant public opinion and negative impact. The deputy county mayor in charge and 25 other relevant department heads were all subjected to disciplinary actions and organizational sanctions by the County Government of Nongan.
