江苏泰州官员吃豪餐遭围堵 书记跪桌喊话求饶

On the night of April 19, 2013, the Management Committee of Taizhou Binjiang Industrial Zone, Jiangsu gave a banquet for the favor of anonymous VIPs, who enjoyed top-grade liquor and were generously served senior dishes, particularly saury and balloonfish, etc. However, they were running wild with joy to feast their bellies with all these sumptuous dishes and other additives when some local people crowded into the dinning room to block up feasters who had to stand facing the angry crowd. In the end an official in charge was forced to knell down on the dinning table to plead for mercy.

2013年4月19日晚，江苏省泰州市滨江工业园区管委会在其招待中心举行晚宴，喝高档名酒，吃刀鱼和河豚等高级菜肴，遭到了当地群众的围堵，为首的官员被迫跪在酒桌上喊话求饶。

At about 7:30 p.m. the courtyard of the Management Committee of Taizhou Binjiang Industrial Zone were crowed with nearly 1000 local people, some of whom were so jealously furious that they rushed into the room where the officials were dinning on the second floor of the in-house restaurant.

当晚7时30分，泰州市滨江工业园区管委会院内外围满近千名附近群众，在管委会招待中心二楼，气愤的群众将当时就餐人员围堵在房间内。

As it happened, some people had spied on the officials only to find that they were making a real pig of themselves within a compartment, belly-worshiping high-grade alcohol and tobacco, particularly the rarely expensive saury and balloonfish, etc. So they didn’t dare to delay a moment and ran back to their residential community to call together the other residents to catch them “red-handed” joyfully hitting the spot at table.

为了探其究竟，有人进入二楼餐厅暗访，发现包厢内的人员正在大吃大喝，消费的都是高档烟酒，还有名贵刀鱼和河豚等菜肴。随后他们跑回小区通知居民们一起到招待中心抓“现行”。

It was not long before more and more local people joined the furious crowd who were actually set on fire, yelling all with one voice to challenge them to explain it away. Out of frustration, the secretary of the Management Committee of Taizhou Binjiang Industrial Zone was helplessly forced to knell down on the dinning table to plead for mercy through a loudhailer.

随后，招待中心里聚集的群众越来越多，大家情绪激动，纷纷向参加宴会的官员讨说法。无奈之下，参与吃饭的泰州市滨江工业园区管委会书记跪在酒桌上用话筒喊话，向群众求饶放人。
