Man builds website for fans of officials

Chinese officials, not normally known for star appeal, are being thrust into the spotlight on a website catering to their fans.

Claiming to be the first fan site for local politicians, the website, titled Fans Circle for Officials of the People's Republic of China (http://www.zhongguofans.com/), is raising the profiles of little-known officials.

"I hope it can become a platform for the public to freely exchange ideas with the governments," says Yang Yunhe, founder of the site.

A former factory hand and restaurant worker Yang, 33, runs a business that puts advertising on bicycles. He says he knows too well how people toiling at the foot of the social ladder are frustrated by the scant channels of communication to those in authority.

But the rise of the Internet provided him with an opportunity to help people speak out.

Unlike the site exclusively created for President Hu Jintao and Premier Wen Jiabao last September, the site has much broader coverage with pages dedicated to top leaders from three provinces and five cities.

In April last year, Yang launched a fan site solely for Wu Weirong, the Communist Party chief of Yiwu City, the world's largest small commodities market located in east China's Zhejiang Province.

But four days later, Yang was invited to the publicity office of the local government, where he was politely told the fan site thing was unsuitable for a low-key cadre like Wu, so he closed it down.

"It could have caused misunderstanding, as some might think the official himself established the site for his own benefit," a spokesman for Yiwu government said.

However, Yang's idea was revived in September when the People's Daily, the Communist Party's flagship newspaper, initiated the "Jin and Bao Fan Zone" dedicated to Hu Jintao and Wen Jiabao on its website.

Yang immediately started rebuilding his website, listing more officials from other cities and provinces. But with an investment of less than 4,000 yuan (US$588), the site broke down due to poor technical support and growing traffic. Normal operation resumed in December.

Among the first to have fan pages on Yang's website were the Party chiefs of Guangdong, Shaanxi and Zhejiang provinces.

Shaanxi is Yang's home province, Guangdong is the spearhead of China's reform and opening up drive, and Zhejiang is flush with private enterprise.
