A total of 15 town-level government service stations were opened in Pingtan, Fujian province recently, as part of the local government's efforts to improve the efficiency and quality of government services.

The 15 service stations scattered around the city will continue to adopt the service model of the Pingtan Comprehensive Pilot Zone Administrative Service Center, that is, accept requests through a filing window and transfer the request to an appropriate department.

"In the past, I had no idea which government department I should turn to for government services, so I wasted a lot of time and energy in finding the right place," said Chen Yun, a resident from Pingyuan town.

"The newly-opened service station near my home shall save me a lot of time," Chen added.
