Shanwei Incident Implied the Cost of China’s Economic Miracle
The incident happened in Shanwei (汕尾)certainly demonstrated the weak capability of Chinese government to cope with the social crisis again. Many people even associated it with June 4th incident. There was another case similar to Shanwei incident taking place in Hanyuan city, Sichuan Province late last year. Government in Sichuan confiscated farmers’ lands, planning to construct a power plant near Dadu River . The peasants in Hanyuan who lost their lands stopped the plant's construction, demanding government to increase the compensation level. When clashes began, the Police opened fire. The incident was cracked down on by force, ending with tens of peasant's death.
