THOUSANDS of villagers of Wukan in south China's Guangdong province, known for last year's massive protests over illegal land sales and other issues, went to polls today to elect a new village committee.
The village committee includes a chief, two deputy chiefs and four members.
This is the last stop of a three-phase election that has chosen an 11-member election committee and 109 village representatives earlier this month.
Residents in Wukan confronted the local government over illegal land grabs, financing and the violation of local election regulations in the second half of last year.
The protests simmered for months and only came to an end in late December after a provincial work team held talks with the villagers, and acknowledged that their major demands were reasonable and that "some mistakes" were made by local officials.
