Always strive for the interests of the people (thoughts) Xi Jinping | people | thought
Our party comes from the people, takes root in the people, and benefits the people. We always regard the fundamental interests of the broadest masses of the people as the fundamental starting point and foothold of all work. Over a hundred years of trials and tribulations, it is precisely because of our unwavering perseverance in fighting for the interests of the people that our Party can unite and lead the people to overcome various risks and challenges, paint a magnificent historical picture, continuously create a better life for the people, and usher in a bright prospect of national rejuvenation.
Whether we always strive for the interests of the people is the most convincing fact. The Jinggangshan Mountains are treacherous, and the Long March is far away. Countless young Communist Party members, driven by their ideals and beliefs, have come one after another. They are not seeking to become officials and wealthy, but rather to awaken millions of workers and peasants and liberate the people. After the establishment of the People's Republic of China, facing the devastation, poverty, and backwardness left by the old society, Communist Party members worked tirelessly and worked hard to achieve socialist modernization. Whether it's living in tents, drinking bitter water, fighting sandstorms, creating the miracle of "two bombs and one star", or rapidly building border towns into special economic zones through the wind and rain, the stars and the moon, all the efforts of the CPC are to achieve the prosperity of the country, the revitalization of the nation, and the happiness of the people.Through the flames and smoke of war, the arduous journey of entrepreneurship, the surging tide of reform, and heading towards the glorious shore of rejuvenation, our party has always worked hard for the people and shared weal and woe with them.
Why can our party break free from the limitations of all previous political forces pursuing its own special interests and always strive for the interests of the people? The guidance of advanced thinking, the inheritance of spiritual power, the guarantee of the mass line, and the play of institutional role are important reasons that cannot be ignored. Marxism is a theory that originates from the people, serves the people, and benefits the people. Our party adheres to the guidance of Marxism and fully implements the people-oriented and practical nature of Marxism in the great practice of leading China's revolution, construction, and reform. Our party promotes the great spirit of party building, and countless advanced model figures have written a spiritual epic of loyalty to the party and not betraying the people with their own struggles and sacrifices, inspiring generations of Communist Party members to forge ahead and continue their struggle to realize the interests of the people. Our party adheres to the mass line, which is the lifeline and fundamental work line of the party. We implement the mass line in all activities of the party's governance, always maintaining the flesh and blood connection between the party and the people, so that the party's propositions can reflect the will of the people, reflect their wishes, safeguard their rights and interests, and enhance their well-being. Our party adheres to the principle of governing the party by system and by rules, explores the establishment of a system that does not forget its original aspiration and mission, improves the party's self revolutionary system and norms, and establishes a long-term mechanism to ensure that the party always strives for the interests of the people through a series of effective institutional arrangements.
On the new journey, our party will face the "four major tests" and "four dangers" that will persist for a long time. We must always adhere to the struggle for the interests of the people, never deteriorate, change color, and remain unchanged. We must constantly consolidate our ideological foundation.The majority of Party members and cadres should put their own thoughts into the theme education, deeply understand the power of truth, practice and personality of the Party's innovative theory, keep in mind the fundamental question of what the CPC is and what to do, and strive to transform the learning achievements into a vivid practice of fighting for the interests of the people.
