Company disregards law to build wharf in Hainan (7)

Illegally built structures, including a wharf, are popping up on a stretch of coast in Lingao county, South China’s Hainan province, Aug 6, 2015. A company has reclaimed land from the sea and built structures without acquiring necessary approvals. The company was fined more than two million yuan ($320,000) in 2011 but has since built more facilities, incurring another fine of 2.4 million yuan. (Photo: China News Service/Luo Yunfei)
