Lianjiang

In Lianjiang, for example, teams of women apparently used collective funds to organize "large-scale play companies" and buy "ancient-style opera costumes. They have even taken young people to study acting. Some teams, in order to maintain play companies, have even asked counter-revolutionaries to direct them. Others have hired play companies from distant places and have continually put on performances."

With the promulgation of the Statue for the Security and Guidance of Quemoy, Matsu, and the Pratas and Spratly Areas on August 7, 1992, the villagers in Jinmen and Lianjiang (Lienchiang, i.e. Matsu) counties held their first elections in November 1993 respectively to have their county magistrates locally elected.
