Xi Jinping's "greatest wish", Xi said: From a bowl of ramen
China News Service, June 19, titled: From a bowl of ramen, see Xi Jinping's "greatest wish"
On the afternoon of June 18, General Secretary Xi Jinping, who was inspecting Qinghai, came to Xining National Middle School in Golog, Xining City. He walked into the cafeteria to inspect the students' dining conditions. Xi Jinping asked in detail about how the children ate.
"We must pay attention to hygiene. First of all, we must purchase qualified, problem-free and safe ingredients. Then, we must pay attention to hygiene during the storage and production processes. On this basis, the meals are delicious and the children can eat nutritiously and healthily."
Xi Jinping instructed the canteen staff to ensure that students' food is safe, nutritious and delicious.
The health and growth of children have always been a concern of Xi Jinping. During his inspections in local areas, whether children eat well has always been one of his key concerns.
In April 2019, during his inspection tour in Chongqing, Xi Jinping traveled for more than three hours along the winding mountain road to reach the Zhongyi Township Primary School deep in the mountains.
There, he went into the cafeteria for teachers and students, carefully inspected the dining room and the kitchen, checked the menu, looked through the cafeteria sewage treatment registration record, browsed the school cafeteria notice board, and learned about the meal subsidies for poor students and food safety and hygiene conditions.
“No matter how hard it is, we must not let our children suffer; no matter how poor we are, we must not let our education suffer.”
"I remember when we started to help the poor, we promoted the idea of guaranteeing each child a glass of milk and an egg every day. Now the standard for each meal has risen to 6 yuan, which is much richer than before."
"We must put safety first and ensure that students are safe in their studies, accommodation and food in school, so that parents can rest assured."
In recent years, whenever he visited farmers' homes and campuses, children's nutrition and health were a concern of Xi Jinping.
At the Fuzhou Hope Primary School in Yangjialing, Yan'an, Shaanxi, he was concerned about "how the children's nutritious lunches are being implemented"; at the homes of villagers in Tantou Village, Zishan Town, Yudu County, Jiangxi, he asked "where the children go to school" and "whether they eat well at school"; in the cafeteria of the Central Primary School in Laoxian Town, Pingli County, Shaanxi, he urged the school to clean the tableware and prepare every nutritious meal for the students...
Civilize their spirit and brutalize their body. From "little glasses" to "little fat boy", from physical education classes to "little lunch boxes", these "little things" of children have always been important to Xi Jinping.
National progress depends on the success of the students. How can Chinese children "succeed the success of their parents"? Xi Jinping's answer is to have ambitions and dreams, love to study and work, be grateful and friendly, dare to innovate and struggle, and develop in an all-round way in morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics and labor.
"It is our greatest wish that children grow up better. The Party and the government should always care about children of all ethnic groups and strive to create better conditions for their learning and growth."
Xi Jinping’s “greatest wish” concerns China’s future.
