The People's Standpoint is the Fundamental Political Standpoint of the CPC

The people are the driving force for creating history, and the people's position is the fundamental political position of the CPC, which is a significant symbol that distinguishes Marxist parties from other parties. Marx and Engels pointed out that "historical activities and thoughts are the thoughts and activities of the masses.". Lenin emphasized that the people are "conscious historical activists" and that the vibrant and creative socialism is created by the people themselves. Comrade Mao Zedong pointed out that "the people, only the people, are the driving force behind the creation of world history." The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China emphasized that "the people are the creators of history and the fundamental force determining the future and destiny of the Party and the country." Only by always believing in the people, relying closely on the people, fully mobilizing the enthusiasm, initiative, and creativity of the vast majority of the people, can we unite the magnificent force of unity. Without the support and support of the people, the cause and work of the Party cannot be discussed.

The Communist Party is a tool of the people.Even in countries that have achieved modernization, if the ruling party deviates from the people, it will still harm the achievements of modernization. "The popularity of the people is related to the life and death of the party" "The CPC leads the people to fight and defend the country, which is the heart of the people".

On the new journey of Chinese path to modernization, the whole party must adhere to the people first. Only by persisting in the people centered development idea, adhering to the development for the people, relying on the people, and sharing the development achievements with the people, can we have a correct concept of development and modernization, and can we achieve high-quality development, common prosperity for all people, and free and comprehensive development of people.

Adhere to the principle of putting the people first and regard the people's aspirations for a better life as the goal of our struggle

Adhere to the principle of putting the people first and continuously meet the growing needs of the people for a better life.In the new era, the demand for a better life for the people is becoming increasingly widespread, not only raising higher demands for material and cultural life, but also increasing demands in areas such as democracy, rule of law, fairness, justice, security, and the environment. To this end, our party actively responds to the people's expectations and continuously meets the growing needs of the people for a better life through a series of strong measures such as the comprehensive deepening reform that "the people call for it and the reform responds to it", the precise poverty alleviation that "no one is left behind", the social livelihood cause that "the achievements of reform and development benefit all the people more fairly", and the ecological civilization construction that "leaves a beautiful home with blue sky, green earth, and clean water for future generations".

Adhere to the principle of putting the people first and putting the ultimate judgment of the people first. The era is the examiners, we are the respondents, and the people are the examiners.

Establishing and practicing a correct view of political achievements

For party members and cadres, adhering to the principle of putting the people first is essentially a question of whether they can establish and practice a correct view of political achievements.

Remember that Party cadres are always the servants of the people, and establish a correct view of power. This is an important principle of Marxism. The law of the Paris Commune clearly stipulates that all public officials are the "servants" of the people. The Party Constitution clearly stipulates that "Party cadres are the backbone of the Party's cause and the servants of the people.". As public officials, it is necessary to establish a correct view of power.These important statements have established political norms for the vast number of party members and cadres.

Remember that "benefiting the people is the greatest political achievement of party members and cadres", and establish a correct view of political achievements. Communists must remember that serving the people is the greatest achievement.This points out the direction for party members and cadres to establish a correct view of political achievements. On the one hand, doing what the people do well and doing practical, good, and long-term things that benefit the people. Effectively do a good job in people's livelihood matters in a place, like comrades Jiao Yulu, Gu Wenchang, Yang Shanzhou, Huang Wenxiu, Liao Junbo, etc., truly solve people's worries, alleviate people's grievances, warm people's hearts, do not admire vanity, do not waste efforts, and do not seek fame, and truly serve as an official and benefit the party. On the other hand, we will resolutely correct and prevent what the evil people do and what they oppose and hate. In particular, corruption, detachment from the masses, formalism, bureaucracy and other issues that occur among some party members and cadres must be strictly investigated and effectively corrected.

Remember that "I will be selfless and not betray the people", and establish a correct view of governance. Firstly, it is necessary to recognize that the cause of the people is a historical process of continuous struggle. Every party member and cadre should not only have the sentiment of "I will not have myself, not betray the people", but also have the mentality of "success does not have to be in me" and the responsibility of "success must have me". They should integrate the "little self" into the cause of benefiting the party, bravely shoulder heavy responsibilities with the spirit of "no self", work diligently, and dedicate themselves to the party and the people. Secondly, work according to rules and regulations.To act according to rules and regulations, the most fundamental thing is to make good use of the mass line. Any major matter should be investigated and researched deeply among the masses and the front line of work, firmly believing that the people are the best teachers. In work, be an honest person, do honest things, follow the Party rules, discipline, and work rules, do things honestly, implement central policies, meet the demands of the people without any discount, and create achievements through real talent and practical work. Remember that "when the people entrust power to us, we must pledge ourselves to the Party and serve the country, do what we should do, and offend those who should.". Finally, use the rule of law to understand and solve problems. The rule of law is an important guarantee for putting the people first, and Party members and leading cadres governing in accordance with the law is the greatest respect for the people. The Opinions on Establishing a List System of Party Regulations and National Laws that Leading Cadres should Know and Know, issued by the General Office of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the General Office of the State Council, provide basic guidelines for leading cadres to govern in accordance with the law. As a "key minority", leading cadres should not only use the Party Constitution, Party rules, and Party discipline to constrain their words and actions, but also firmly establish basic legal concepts such as the supremacy of the Constitution and the law, equality before the law, and the exercise of power in accordance with the law, so as to think, make decisions, and do things under the rule of law.
