Governors Of Guangdong
The Politics of Guangdong follows a dual party-government system like the rest of China's provinces.

In a well-publicized case in 2000, the Guangdong PPC also harshly criticized the Environmental Protection Bureau for allowing the construction of an electroplating park without a proper environmental impact investigation.
