Politics of Taiyuan
The Politics of Taiyuan in Shanxi 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 Taiyuan is the highest-ranking official in the People's Government of Taiyuan or Taiyuan Municipal Government. However, in the city's dual party-government governing system, the Mayor has less power than the Communist Party of Taiyuan Municipal Committee Secretary, colloquially termed the "CPC Party Chief of Taiyuan" or "Communist Party Secretary of Taiyuan".History
