These figures reflect a more general pattern of underrepresentation of women at all levels of the political system. Only two women sit in the current 25-member Politburo and no woman has ever sat in the powerful Politburo Standing Committee. Currently there is only one female provincial governor (Li Bin, governor of Anhui) and only one party secretary of a province or city (Sun Chunlan, currently party secretary of Tianjin city, and previously of Fujian province). In fact, Sun is one of only two women who have ever served as the party secretary of a province. Only 21 per cent of all party members are female and only 23 per cent of all national-level civil servants are women. Further down the system, little more than 1 per cent of village committee chairs are women.
