Minimizing various losses, People's Daily Online reviews: Full efforts in flood prevention and disaster relief work | Floods | Flood prevention
Recently, Chongqing and other areas have experienced heavy rainfall, with some rivers experiencing floods exceeding the warning level, causing geological disasters such as flash floods and mudslides.
At present, the whole country is about to enter the key flood control period of "seven lower and eight upper". Seven major river basins will enter the main flood season in an all-round way. The Yangtze River, Huaihe River, the Taihu Lake Lake and Songliao River basins have the risk of flood disaster, and the flood control situation is severe. Various regions and departments face significant pressure in flood prevention and control. They should closely monitor the development of rainfall and flood conditions, comprehensively prepare for flood prevention and control, continuously improve their disaster prevention and relief capabilities, and ensure safe and reliable flood control.
To do a good job in flood prevention and disaster relief, we must always prioritize the safety of people's lives and property. All regions and departments should always tighten the string of preventing major floods, seizing major risks, and rescuing major disasters, without any relaxation. Past experience has shown that leaders and cadres at all levels should lead by example and command from the front, starting from the interests of the people in both thinking and action. They should "run" before floods and "think" before disasters occur, and implement responsibilities and environmental measures layer by layer, focusing on regular, detailed, and long-term measures, in order to minimize losses to the greatest extent possible.
To do a good job in flood prevention and disaster relief, we must be prepared and prepared in advance. The first priority of flood prevention and disaster relief lies in "prevention", which means unexpected, inadequate, inadequate, and lax prevention. China has a vast geography and complex geological conditions. This requires that doing a good job in flood prevention and disaster relief work cannot rely solely on experience, but also on scientific response, proactive seeking change, and using scientific strength to fight the flood prevention initiative. From strengthening forecasting, early warning, rehearsal, and contingency plans, to using digital and intelligent means to enhance risk prevention and control capabilities... All regions and departments should closely focus on key areas and key links, with a sense of responsibility of "always being at ease", adhere to bottom line thinking, and prefer to be prepared without floods, rather than "ten precautions and nine emptiness", nor "one loss and nothing". It has been proven that the more meticulous and thorough the preparation, the more calm the flood situation can be, and the more decisive the measures can be to deal with the uncertainty of the flood situation.
To do a good job in flood prevention and disaster relief, it is necessary to ensure that all measures are implemented in detail. Flood control and disaster relief are major events, consisting of many small details such as monitoring and early warning, reservoir investigation, emergency rescue, personnel dispatch, and post disaster reconstruction. Each region should highlight problem orientation and result orientation, adhere to strict, detailed, and practical measures, and ensure the implementation of all measures at the end. On the one hand, relevant departments should strengthen overall planning and coordination, strengthen consultation and judgment, do a good job in monitoring and early warning, strengthen rainfall and water situation forecasting and early warning, and accurately guide key areas to do a good job in disaster prevention work such as floods in small and medium-sized rivers, accidents in small and medium-sized reservoirs, and urban waterlogging. On the other hand, we should highlight the key points of defense and conduct a comprehensive investigation and investigation of hidden dangers. Strengthen safety inspections in areas with geological hazards such as embankments, reservoirs, and mountain floods, timely develop contingency plans, do a good job in personnel evacuation, and advance the relocation and evacuation of people in low-lying areas along the river, flood storage and detention areas, key embankments, and other dangerous areas to ensure that no household or person is left behind.
To do a good job in flood prevention and disaster relief, we must strictly prevent the occurrence of secondary disasters, prevent poverty due to disasters, and prevent major epidemics after major disasters. All regions and departments should properly resettle the lives of disaster stricken people, increase the investment of disaster relief funds and materials, and provide detailed and practical service guarantees for centralized resettlement sites, ensuring that disaster stricken people have hot meals, clean water, safe housing, and medical security. Party members and cadres should fully play the exemplary role of Party members, unite and lead the disaster stricken masses to actively carry out production and self rescue, restore production and life order as soon as possible, and strive to achieve a comprehensive victory in flood prevention and disaster relief work.
Flood prevention and disaster relief work is related to the safety of the people, social stability, and overall development. It is not only a big battle, but also a big test. Let us unite as one, take strict precautions, and work together to win this tough battle, ensuring the safety of the river and the people.
