Welcome to ElectionInfo.com's Election Pages on China. China is the largest populated country in the World.
The People’s Republic of China is ruled by the Communist Party, whose senior members also hold the highest offices of state. National policy is determined by a 20-member Politburo and its Standing Committee. The National People’s Congress (the parliament) has nearly 3,000 members, indirectly elected at local level for five-year terms. It meets annually and has traditionally rubber-stamped the policies and enacted the legislation decided upon by the Communist Party. In 1995 and 1996, however, some delegates opposed the government’s positions.
The Chinese government is involved in a number of geopolitical issues with neighbouring countries. The Spratly Islands are the subject of a complex disagreement between China, Malaysia, the Philippines, Taiwan, Vietnam, and Brunei. The Paracel Islands are occupied by China but claimed by Vietnam. China and Taiwan both claim the Japanese-administered Senkaku-shoto. Arunachal Pradesh and Aksai Chin are sources of disagreement with India.
