A Chinese farmer has spent 16 years studying law by himself so he could sue a chemical company for allegedly polluting his land.

Wang Enlin, who had just three years of education, has won the first instance in a high-profile case against state-owned Qihua Group, reported the People's Daily Online.

Although Qihua Group, whose assets exceed two billion yuan (£233 million), has appealed against the decision, the elderly man said he is determined to seek justice for himself and his neighbours who could no longer grow healthy crops on their contaminated land.

Mr Wang, who is in his 60s, lives in the Yushutun village on the outskirts of Qiqihar in the Heilongjiang Province, according to People's Daily Online, which cited China Youth Daily.

It's commendable but if I were him, I'd hire some body guards

My uncle has done the same thing in his battle with the IRS and has pretty much beaten them into submission. It took 20 yrs of going to court but they eventually said frick it and left him alone.

I was thinking the same thing.

The commercials for his new film Great Wall or whatever, are just fricking stupid. How do these idiots come up with something so stupid? An ancient Chinese problem that can only be solved by long hair, American man. Sounds legit.
