Five years ago, Meng Weichun, the head of a pig farm in Hainan, suffered a sudden blow.
His pig farm was forcibly demolished by local law enforcement officers, and the economic loss was as high as 90 million. However, five years have passed, and he has still not received the compensation he deserves.
What happened
In June 2018, Meng Weichun received a notice that his pig farm had illegal land and needed to be demolished.
Faced with the sudden disaster, Meng Weichun was extremely shocked. He admits that there are indeed some buildings on the pig farm that do not have compliance approvals, but these are for the development of the pig industry, in order to give the pigs a better living environment, and everything else is fine.
He always believed that the government would give him reasonable compensation.
However, things did not turn out as Meng Weichun thought. After the pig farm was demolished, he began a long wait for compensation.
He was told that he was using the illegal land because there was a satellite spot on the map.
The court held that the satellite images could not be used as the basis for administrative punishment, but could only be used as a clue to discover the problem.
The department responded
The government will give you money that you owe, and you will be given a late fee if you exceed the time limit. This sounds great, but why has the government been slow to honour the verdict?
In this turmoil, Meng Weichun suffered huge economic losses and endured endless pain.
He travels from department to department looking for a solution to a problem. In the past five years, he has watched the former site of the pig farm become a wasteland, and the disappointment and helplessness in his heart have become more and more intense.
Netizens also expressed concern about this matter.
They felt that the government's response lacked sincerity and expressed sympathy for Meng's plight.
Some netizens questioned why the court had already ruled that the government departments could not fulfill their obligation to compensate on time? This is not only an injustice to Meng Weichun, but also a violation of the rule of law.
Personally, I believe that the seriousness of this matter cannot be ignored.
On the one hand, it harmed Meng Weichun's legitimate rights and interests and made him pay a heavy price.
On the other hand, it calls into question the credibility of government departments. As a department serving the masses, the government should set an example, abide by the law, and safeguard the interests of the masses.
In this turmoil, we saw Meng Weichun's tenacity and unyieldingness.
Despite the huge setbacks, he remained convinced that justice would come. His story teaches us that everyone has the right to defend their rights and interests, and that no matter how difficult it may be, we must not give up hope.
The department said that it would ask for the signature of the top person in charge.
Five years have passed, and Meng Weichun is still running for compensation. We hope that the government departments will take this issue seriously, implement the court judgment as soon as possible, and give Meng Weichun a fair result.
The government should compensate for late fees.
At the same time, we also hope that this incident can attract more people's attention, let more people understand the importance of rights protection, and contribute to the construction of a fair and just society.
In short, the forced demolition of a pig farm is a typical case of rights protection.
It allows us to see the helplessness of individuals in the face of power, and also makes us realize that in a society governed by the rule of law, government departments should abide by the law and safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of the masses.
We hope that in the days to come, such tragedies will not happen again, and everyone will be able to enjoy a fair and just life under the sunshine of the rule of law.
