Strengthening the Construction of Party Conduct and Clean Government, Creating a Good Environment of Clean and upright Conduct | Politics | The Era
Xi Jinping: it is necessary to build a contingent of cadres who are politically competent, professionally competent, able to endure hardships, and full of pioneering and innovative spirit, strengthen the building of a clean and honest party style, and create a good environment with a clean and upright atmosphere.
This passage comes from the speech delivered by General Secretary Xi Jinping when he presided over the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Coordinated Development Symposium on January 18, 2019.
Honesty and integrity are the foundation of Communist Party members. To be honest and upright in government, one can win the trust of the people, and to use power impartially can win people's hearts. Whether it is Jiao Yulu, a good servant of the people, a good example of cadres, or Gu Wenchang, a "Four Haves" cadre model who has the Party in his heart, the people in his heart, the responsibility in his heart, and the discipline in his heart; Liao Junbo, a "National Excellent Communist Party Member" who works hard and benefits one side, and Huang Wenxiu, the first secretary stationed in the village who is loyal to the party, has firm beliefs, and never forgets his original intention... These good cadres who are supported and loved by the masses are all models of self-discipline and integrity in serving the public.
To maintain the progressiveness and purity of the party members and cadres, we must constantly promote the construction of a clean and honest government and the fight against corruption, take the political life within the party seriously, and create a good political environment with a clean and upright atmosphere in the whole party.According to a report from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the National Supervisory Commission, in 2022, 32 central management cadres were investigated and 37 central management cadres were disciplined; In May of this year, a total of 7035 cases of violations of the central eight point regulations were investigated and dealt with nationwide. 10061 people were criticized, educated, helped, and dealt with, and 7093 people were given disciplinary and administrative sanctions. At the same time, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China has organized six centralized Party education activities, including the education and practice of the Party's mass line, the special education on "three stricts and three realities", and the theme education on "not forgetting the original intention and keeping in mind the mission", to help Party members and cadres establish a correct view of power and promote a clean and honest culture through theoretical and ideological cultivation.Various regions continue to innovate the forms of civil servant training, continuously strengthening the construction of the civil servant team and political conduct through anti-corruption education talks, watching typical case warning education films, visiting anti-corruption cultural education bases, and other forms.
To govern a country, we must first govern the Party, and only when the Party is prosperous can the country be strong. The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China emphasizes strengthening the construction of a culture of integrity in the new era.This requires us party members and cadres, especially leaders at all levels, to continuously enhance our awareness of discipline and rules, to use our power fairly, in accordance with the law, for the benefit of the people, and with integrity. We must consciously be the leaders, creators, and maintainers of a good political ecology and social atmosphere, and take practical actions with loyalty, cleanliness, and responsibility to make a good start to the comprehensive construction of a socialist modernized country.
