Wang Lixia presided over the executive meeting of the autonomous regional government and the meeting of the leading group for climate change, energy conservation and emission reduction
General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that to build a modern socialist country in an all-round way, no nation should be left behind.
Common prosperity is the essential requirement of socialism and an important feature of Chinese modernization, and forging the sense of community of the Chinese nation is the proper meaning of Chinese modernization. The most arduous task of promoting common prosperity for all the people lies in some border ethnic areas. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, 832 poverty-stricken counties have been targeted for poverty alleviation, of which 420 are in ethnic autonomous areas.
Development is the key to solving various problems in minority areas. In 2023, the State Ethnic Affairs Commission will take the realization of Chinese-style modernization as the biggest politics, promote all localities to build the main line of forging the sense of community of the Chinese nation throughout the work of ethnic groups and all work in ethnic areas, and promote the significance of giving all reform and development to demonstrate the sense of community of the Chinese nation, the significance of maintaining unity and opposing separatism, and the significance of improving people's livelihood and uniting people's hearts (hereinafter referred to as the "three meanings"), so that the community of the Chinese nation will be unbreakable.
With rural revitalization as the starting point, innovation will promote the modernization of ethnic minority areas
"The blue sky is getting higher and higher, and the jade dragon is bewitching. Walking along the Heye Highway, you can see the rolling grasslands and herds of cattle and sheep, the trickle of water winds down, the Tibetan houses are scattered according to the mountains, and the eye-catching "Ohla" sign stands on the high hills.
Ohla Village is located in the hinterland of Meiren Prairie, Cooperation City, Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Gansu Province. In recent years, Gannan Prefecture has actively built Ohla Village into a tourism benchmark village in Gannan Prefecture, and it will be officially opened for operation at the end of 2021. "Ordinary people have transformed their homes into homestays, developed tourism, and increased income from grazing in the past to local and nearby employment, which is our new life in Ohra. Li Xinping, secretary of the Gannan Prefecture Cooperation Municipal Party Committee, said proudly.
If the nation is to be rejuvenated, the countryside must be revitalized. After the comprehensive victory in the battle against poverty, on the basis of consolidating and expanding the achievements of poverty alleviation, it is of great significance to do a good job in rural revitalization, which is of great significance to promote the economic and social development of ethnic minority areas and realize the common prosperity of all people. The State Ethnic Affairs Commission takes the subsidy fund for promoting rural revitalization (the development task of ethnic minorities) as the starting point of the central government, promotes the main line of the fund project to focus on the sense of community of the Chinese nation, and strives to promote all ethnic groups to move towards socialist modernization together, and work together in unity and common prosperity and development on the new journey of building a strong country and national rejuvenation, and giving the fund project "three meanings".
-- Based on the resource endowment, develop characteristic industries according to local conditions. In the demonstration and approval of the project, Xinjiang regards whether it is conducive to forging the sense of community of the Chinese nation as an important criterion for feasibility, and in the implementation and promotion of the project, the local people of all ethnic groups are widely involved. Priority will be given to supporting the development of agricultural and rich peasant industries in the agricultural belt, focusing on supporting people's livelihood projects such as the action of rejuvenating the border areas and enriching the people, the development of characteristic industries, and "sending tea to households". Hongsibao District, Wuzhong City, Ningxia has developed more than 100,000 acres of wine vineyards, wolfberry, daylily, Chinese medicinal materials, beef cattle, beach sheep and other characteristic agriculture and animal husbandry, so that 230,000 Xihaigu ecological migrants can uproot their poor roots at their doorstep and embark on the road to prosperity. Zhaotong City, Yunnan Province has promoted the implementation of "one county, one industry", and characteristic industries such as apples, bamboo, and peppercorns are thriving. Over the past year, ethnic minority areas have given full play to their resource advantages, created characteristic brands, and smoothed sales channels, so that local characteristic agricultural products can go to the whole country and enter thousands of households.
-- Improving infrastructure construction and improving the production and living conditions of the people of all ethnic groups. Since 2021, Henan has organized the pairing of villages (communities) inhabited by ethnic minorities with surrounding villages (communities), and since 2021, more than 800 projects such as infrastructure interconnection have been implemented in the paired villages, more than 2,100 practical skills training courses have been jointly held, 143,000 people have been trained, more than 2,400 agricultural professional cooperatives have been cultivated, and 218,000 people have been employed, forming a new situation of industrial conspiracy, project co-construction, resource sharing, and integrated development in the paired villages. The acceleration of infrastructure construction in various localities has given wings to the development of various economic and social undertakings. The masses of all ethnic groups have used water to flush toilets and the Internet, and have realized the mechanization of farming, and profound changes have also taken place in their ideological concepts, production and lifestyle, and they have greater confidence and enthusiasm to jointly march toward socialist modernization.
-- Improving the quality of the living environment and creating beautiful villages suitable for living and working. The bitter cellar water of the past has become sweet tap water, the adobe houses of the past have become brand new brick houses, and the living standards of farmers and herdsmen of all ethnic groups in ethnic minority areas have been improved by leaps and bounds. In 2023, Yunnan will build 374 modern border happy villages, 100% of natural villages will have hardened roads, the rural tap water penetration rate will increase to more than 90%, and the 5G network coverage rate will be 100%. Guided by the pilot construction of villages and towns along the Pinglu Canal, Guangxi has promoted the construction of modern and livable farmhouses and created livable, workable and beautiful villages. Jilin has strengthened the construction of border villages, with 100% of local safe drinking water, domestic electricity, and domestic garbage collection, transportation and disposal, all health rooms have been established, and rural pension institutions have covered 118 villages.
From September 11 to 12, 2023, the State Ethnic Affairs Commission and the National Rural Revitalization Administration held an on-site promotion meeting in Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Gansu Province, to consolidate and expand the achievements of poverty alleviation and rural revitalization. At the meeting, arrangements were made to promote the consolidation and expansion of the achievements of poverty alleviation in ethnic areas and the effective connection of rural revitalization, and it was required to unswervingly build the main line of forging the sense of community of the Chinese nation throughout the whole process and all aspects of the work in ethnic areas.
The draught does not forget the people who dig wells, and happiness does not forget the Communist Party. While promoting the high-quality development of ethnic minority areas, all localities will combine the promotion of development with the strengthening of governance, strengthen publicity and education, and promote the detailed implementation of the "three meanings" given to all reform and development. For example, the old city reconstruction project of Kashgar in Xinjiang has been completed with a comprehensive management memorial hall, and the drinking water source museum has been built after the implementation of the urban and rural drinking water safety project in Jiashi County, guiding the people of all ethnic groups to enhance the "five identities" in the comparison between the old and the new and the source of drinking water. For example, Hubei, Hunan, Sichuan, Yunnan and other major border tea-producing areas have worked closely with Inner Mongolia, Tibet, Gansu, Qinghai and other places to promote "healthy tea drinking and tea delivery to households", and guide the people in pastoral areas to forge a strong sense of community of the Chinese nation in healthy tea drinking.
East-west cooperation and counterpart support have written a good story of unity and mutual assistance among all ethnic groups
Those who are like-minded do not take mountains and seas as far. Carrying out east-west cooperation and counterpart support is an important measure of the CPC Central Committee to promote coordinated regional development, narrow the development gap and achieve common prosperity, which provides strong support for consolidating and expanding the achievements of poverty alleviation, promoting rural revitalization, promoting exchanges and integration of various ethnic groups, and promoting the high-quality development of ethnic minority areas, and writes a new chapter of ethnic unity and mutual assistance.
-- East-West cooperation has a deep love for mountains and seas, writing a new chapter of high-quality development. In 2023, Fujian will arrange 625 million yuan of provincial financial assistance to Ningxia, implement 278 industrial projects in Ningxia, and drive 800,000 rural laborers to increase their income. Shanghai-Yunnan cooperation and innovation to explore the "Shanghai enterprises + Yunnan resources", "Shanghai R&D + Yunnan manufacturing", "Shanghai market + Yunnan products" and "Shanghai headquarters + Yunnan base" cooperation model, seize the opportunity of Shanghai's industrial transfer, sort out and plan key projects for investment promotion in Shanghai, vigorously promote the "Shanghai enterprises into Yunnan" project, carry out enterprise cooperation, industrial cooperation and park co-construction, and deepen cooperation around employment, industry, consumption, talent and other fields to achieve remarkable results.
-- Supporting ethnic minority areas with their counterparts, bringing together the wisdom of the people and achieving fruitful results. Lived in a well-to-do house, walked on asphalt roads, and drank tap water...... According to the recent two sessions of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, in 2023, 19 provinces and cities will invest 17 billion yuan in Xinjiang aid, and more than 80% of the Xinjiang aid funds will be tilted towards people's livelihood and the grassroots, which has done many practical and good things to warm the hearts of the people and benefit the people's livelihood, and greatly improved the production and living conditions of the people in Xinjiang. Over the past year, batches of cadres aiding Xinjiang have carried out the project of helping and improving on a regular basis, and through passing on the help, the concept of talent development and the improvement of work ability in the recipient areas have been realized, leaving a team that cannot be taken away.
In Tibet, the implementation of a series of aid projects for Tibet, from community reconstruction and vegetable supply related to the people's daily life, to transportation construction and industrial cultivation related to Tibet's modernization and development, has condensed the deep friendship between the CPC Central Committee and the people of the whole country for the people of all ethnic groups in Tibet.
-- Focusing on employment, which is the greatest livelihood of the people, and exploring a new model of inter-embedded development. As an important measure to promote the high-quality development of east-west cooperation and implement the inter-embedded development plan for people of all ethnic groups, the "Pomegranate Employment Action" has played an important role in transferring labor employment and helping to consolidate the achievements of targeted poverty alleviation. Yunnan, Guizhou, Qinghai, Xinjiang and other provinces and autonomous regions continue to improve the demand for grassroots employment services, organize and carry out short- and medium-term skills training, and actively carry out employment recommendation and recruitment activities in combination with channels such as live broadcasting, employment assistance month, home delivery, and online job recommendation, so as to encourage surplus labor from ethnic areas to work and start businesses in Jiangsu and other eastern regions, and promote the inter-embedded development of people of all ethnic groups and common prosperity.
From the snowy plateau to the grasslands outside the Saiwai, from the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains to the southwestern border, with the cooperation and counterpart support of the east and west, the lives of the people of all ethnic groups in minority areas are thriving, the economic and social development is changing with each passing day, and the sense of community of the Chinese nation is constantly strengthened.
We will further promote the action of rejuvenating the border areas and enriching the people, and promote the prosperity and development of the border areas
The border areas are at an important juncture of the "dual circulation", an important gateway to opening up, an important region for maintaining national unity and ethnic unity, and an important position for forging the sense of community of the Chinese nation.
In 2023, the State Ethnic Affairs Commission will take the action of rejuvenating the border areas and enriching the people as the starting point, actively play the leading role of the funds for the development of ethnic minorities, and help the high-quality development of economic and social undertakings in the border areas. Dandong, Liaoning Province, has invested 58.82 million yuan in the development of ethnic minorities to support projects such as characteristic planting and breeding, agricultural industry demonstration parks, and understory cash crop planting in border areas, driving more than 1,000 people in the surrounding areas to increase employment and income.
Private enterprises are an important force in border construction. The State Ethnic Affairs Commission and the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce jointly organized and carried out the action of "Private Enterprises Entering the Frontier", guiding the majority of private enterprises to actively participate in the infrastructure construction of the border areas based on the advantages of location, policy and humanities, helping the border areas to improve their resource transformation capabilities, promoting the integration of the border areas into the national unified market, sharing the development dividends of the border areas, promoting the exchanges and integration of various ethnic groups, and jointly moving towards socialist modernization and achieving common prosperity.
Go both ways, and develop a win-win situation. The prosperity and development of the border areas are inseparable from the contribution of private enterprises and the support of the private economy; private enterprises have a great future in the construction of the border areas, and the border areas provide a broad stage and rich soil for the development of enterprises.
In June and November 2023, Guangxi successively held two industrial cooperation fairs on "Private Enterprises Entering the Frontier" in Chongzuo and Baise, attracting more than 300 enterprises to participate, and signing 38 projects on the spot, with a total investment of 13.5 billion yuan.
In October 2023, Jilin Province successfully held a series of activities of "Private Enterprises in Frontier Jilin Tour", introducing 149 projects in border cities and prefectures, with an amount of about 38.627 billion yuan, and combined with the Jilin Action of "Ten Thousand Enterprises Rejuvenating Ten Thousand Villages", 353 private enterprises in the province have paired up with 216 border villages to provide assistance, and a total of 289 cooperation projects have been reached.
At the same time of promoting development, the State Ethnic Affairs Commission, together with the China Association for Science and Technology and the China Earthquake Administration, implemented the "Science Popularization Frontier Tour" activity, with the theme of "Science and Technology Empowering the Border and Enriching the People, and Science Popularization Helping Rural Revitalization", to promote the formation of a social trend of loving and advocating science in the border areas, and to promote the sense of community of the Chinese nation into the villages, communities, and schools, so as to realize the simultaneous advancement of the construction of material civilization and spiritual civilization.
In July 2023, the "Science Popularization Frontier Tour" and "Science Popularization Village Tour" activities were launched in Inner Mongolia Bahrain Right Banner. A total of 96 science popularization experts have been dispatched to colleges and universities directly under the State Ethnic Affairs Commission, about 200 teachers and students have been organized to participate in science popularization work, and a total of 91 science popularization activities have been held, benefiting more than 8,000 young people, farmers and herdsmen, and providing scientific and technological intellectual support for the development and construction of border areas.
The "Science Popularization Frontier Tour" activity has allowed the majority of young people to get close to science and understand science, stimulated a strong interest in science and technology, and determined to become scientific research workers in the future and contribute to the prosperity and development of the motherland.
Comprehensively promoting the construction of a strong country and the great cause of national rejuvenation with Chinese-style modernization is the central task of the Party and the country in the new era and new journey, and it is the biggest politics in the new era. The National Ethnic Affairs Commission system and all localities and departments will implement the requirements of the "two main lines", vigorously promote the common unity and struggle of all ethnic groups, common prosperity and development, gather majestic strength for the construction of a strong country and national rejuvenation, and let the people of all ethnic groups share the great glory of building a strong country and national rejuvenation!
