The Fujian Provincial Government is the nominal government of the streamlined Fujian Province of the Republic of China. Founded in 1927 in the mainland portion of Fujian, it was evacuated to Kinmen in 1949.

Since 2018, it has been superseded and its duties have been transferred to the Kinmen-Matsu Joint Services Center, the National Development Council and other ministries of the Executive Yuan.{{cite web|url=http://www.storm.mg/article/455151|title=賴清德宣示「省級機關走入歷史」|date=28 June 2018|accessdate=17 July 2018}}

History

The Fujian Provincial Government was founded in 1927 by the Nationalist government in Fuzhou (Foochow). Some parts of the province was under the control of either the Chinese Soviet Republic or the Fujian People's Government. The provincial government was relocated to Yong'an County in 1938 after the Japanese forces occupied the capital Fuzhou during the Second Sino-Japanese War.

After the conclusion of the war, the Fujian provincial government moved back to Fuzhou in 1945. However, the late stages of the Chinese Civil War forced the government to relocate to Kinmen County in 1949 while the Communists founded the People's Republic of China. The central government has imposed martial law and Kinmen became a militarized zone causing the provincial government to relocate to Xindian Township, Taipei County within Taiwan Province in 1956. With the end of martial law, Kinmen became demilitarized in 1992 and on 15 January 1996, the provincial government moved back to Kinmen County.{{Cite web |url=http://www.fkpg.gov.tw/engintro.php |title=福建省政府 |access-date=2014-09-20 |archive-date=2014-09-05 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140905074819/http://www.fkpg.gov.tw/engintro.php |url-status=dead }}

On 1 July 2018, by a resolution passed during the 3606th meeting of the Executive Yuan, all the remaining duties were transferred to the National Development Council and other ministries of the Executive Yuan.{{cite web|url=http://www.tpg.gov.tw/|title=Taiwan Provincial Government Official Website|accessdate=17 July 2018|archive-date=29 January 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190129130923/http://www.tpg.gov.tw/|url-status=dead}} The transformation were scheduled to be done before the end of the year 2018. However, the government will keep the position of Governor of Fujian Province to comply with the requirement set by the Additional Articles of the Constitution.

Government structure

The only official who served in the provincial government was the Governor of Fujian Province (also called the Chairperson of the Fujian Provincial Government). The Governor was usually also a minister without portfolio in Executive Yuan.

The provincial government was left with no physical building or office space after all of its functionalities were handed over to the central government in 2018. Historically, the provincial government was located in Fuzhou from 1927 to 1938 and 1945 to present de jure; Yong'an from 1938 to 1945 during the Japanese occupation, Jincheng, Kinmen from 1949 to 1956, in Xindian, Taipei County from 1956 to January 1996 and in Jincheng, Kinmen again from January 1996 to 2018.
