HEFEI, July 15 -- A Party official in east China's Anhui province has been removed from office after absenting himself from the fight against floods, sources with the local government said Sunday.
Zhang Yunbin, former Party secretary of Zhenxing Village, RunheTownship of Yingshang County, was deprived of his post, after county discipline officials found him "not directing work at the flood front," an official with the county discipline inspection1 committee said. On Thursday night, discipline officials went to the village, where they saw the village deputy Party secretary directing farmers to stack sand bags to prevent flooding. Zhang was absent and his cell phone was turned off. "Zhang left his station at a crucial time, and this had a very negative impact on the on-going flood prevention work," the discipline official said. "Failing responsibility during floods is like touching2 a high-voltage electricity wire. Officials that commit any illegal activities or behave poorly must be immediately and severely4 punished," he added. He did not elaborate on what Zhang was doing at the time. Anhui is still facing immediate3 flood threats, as torrential rain in central Henan Province, in the upper reaches of the river, continues to push the third flood peak of the year towards Wangjiaba, a crucial hydrological station in Anhui, the local drought prevention and flood control office said. In order to ease pressure on the swelling5 Huaihe River, the sluices6 at Wangjiaba were opened last Tuesday to divert waters to a buffer7 zone that is home to 150,000 people.
