Lianjiang (連江; 连江; Liánjiāng; Lien²-chiang¹) is a county on the coast of Fujian Province, China.
The lands adjoining the mainland are controlled by the People's Republic of China, and the outlying islands, collectively referred to as the Matsu, are administered as Lienchiang County (Wade-based Romanization) by the Republic of China, which is mostly on Taiwan.
Residents of Lianjiang, both mainland and Matsu speak dialects akin to the Fuzhou dialect.

As compensation, the Lianjiang County government allotted the land within the Riverside Road Plan Area in from the Lianjiang anti-flood levee to a width of 41 meters (of which the road and the dividing area occupied 20.5 meters and 6 meters respectively) for real estate development.
Lianjiang County did not follow any legal process and directly issued a Notice to demand the developer to stop using the land and to compel them to cease work is self-contradictory and lacking in seriousness.
They believed that the Lianjiang leadership and personnel had not handled the case according to the law and that they had used a 'retail' approach in breaking the 60 hectares into pieces to audit, which would seem to violate the regulations concerning their right to investigate.

The case of Huang Jingao, party secretary for Lianjiang county in Fujian province, demonstrated the potential cost of speaking out against China's pervasive corruption, despite repeated pledges from leaders in Beijing to prosecute city, county and provincial officials on the take.
Huang generated a national buzz in August when he wrote an open letter complaining that his efforts to investigate and prosecute corruption were being stymied by higher-level party and government officials because of what he called "the underlying rules" by which unscrupulous functionaries protect one another.
One was a vegetable farmer who was urged to accuse Huang of accepting bribes, the official added, while another was a deputy of Huang's who went to Beijing in an effort to bring Lianjiang's corruption cases to the attention of national-level officials.

After he took over as Lianjiang county party chief in January 2002, he said in his screed, he was approached by people who complained that his predecessor had colluded with real estate developers to drive residents from their homes and sell government-owned land at below-value prices.
Later, in Lianjiang county, his efforts to investigate the real estate swindle were repeatedly blocked by officials higher up in the hierarchy in what became "a huge unseen net that always wanted to cover up this case," he complained.
