邓州

四年前，据《中国日报》（ChinaDaily）曾撰写一篇题为“河南邓州村级民主自治探索”的文章。据文章记载，邓州的民主自治措施包括，让村民拥有更多的重大事项审议权。

Four years ago , government mouthpiece China Daily wrote a story about the city titled ' Democracy takes root in rural areas . ' It chronicled Dengzhou 's measures to involve more residents in the vetting of proposals relating to villages in the region ,

主要包括邓州杨树经济发展的自然条件和基本状况等。

Mainly include the natural conditions and the basic position .

显然，当时肯定没人会想到邓州市农民能够创新到这个地步。

No one , evidently , thought the farmers would get quite so innovative .

这不是邓州第一次因不同寻常的政治新闻而上媒体头条。

This isn 't the first time Dengzhou has made headlines for unusual political news .

他们甚至试图建立自己的“公务员”团队，以邓州市人民政府名义散发招聘广告，招聘大学生到该山寨政府任职，先后有十多名大学生邮寄简历应聘。该山寨政府现已被当地政府关闭。

They also tried to build up their own ' civil service , ' sending out recruitment ads that attracted more than 10 applicants before the real government shut it down .

据中国官方媒体最近报道，设立在河南省的“新邓州市人民政府”被发现是山寨政府，相关涉案人员已被当地公安部门抓获。

State media recently reported that a ' People 's Government of Dengzhou ' set up in central Henan province was toppled after it was found , in fact , to be a fraud .

报道称，当地三个农民去年成立了这个山寨政府，他们还刻制了一系列假冒的政府公章，并以邓州市人民政府名义下发文件。

According to reports , the government was set up late last year by three residents who had gone so far as to counterfeit fake government seals and issue papers in the bogus government 's name .
