  On September 27, the National Supervision Commission of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection announced a summary of the investigation and punishment of mental problems that violated the eight central regulations in August 2020. As of the end of August, 1933 problems involving illegal weddings and funerals were investigated and handled nationwide this year, and 2,177 people were dealt with.

  “Golden Nine and Silver Ten” has always been the peak of wedding celebrations. In addition, many wedding banquets have been postponed in the first half of the year due to the epidemic. During the “two festivals” period, issues such as illegal weddings, funerals and festivities are facing greater rebound pressure.

  The prohibition of party members and cadres from doing great things is by no means prohibiting traditional folklore, but requires party members and cadres to clearly distinguish the boundaries between thrift and luxury, discipline and sentiment, public and private, and integrity and corruption, but in reality, there are always people who repeatedly touch the red line.

  Some people turn weddings and funerals into a tool for making money.

Yang Yufa, former party secretary and director of the Agricultural and Rural Bureau of Fengqing County, Lincang City, Yunnan Province, received more than 300,000 yuan in gift money from 585 people other than relatives at his son’s entrance banquet, and 11 department-level cadres and 125 section-level cadres were listed in the gift book "Famous", nearly a quarter of the county-level cadres became its guests.

In Wenkuang Village, Mengda Town, Zhenyuan County, Yunnan Province, in order to congratulate Chen Zongliang, secretary of the Party branch, on his move, two poor households who set up files and registered cards also gave a gift of 330 yuan. In the end, Chen Zongliang was dealt with seriously.

  Some people compare each other, extravagantly.

Lu Chunlin, party branch secretary and director of the village committee of Xie Village, Ronghe Town, Wanrong County, Yuncheng City, Shanxi Province, held a banquet for 160 tables, hosted more than 1,600 people for 9 consecutive days, and built a luxurious color shed of more than 1,800 square meters. .

In some developed areas along the southeast coast, some private entrepreneurs not only show off their wealth by organizing weddings and funerals, but also take the opportunity to entertain party members and cadres and distribute red packets.

  It is worth noting that there is an obvious trend of invisible mutation in some places.

Some options are broken into pieces and executed multiple times.

Ren Guanghui, former secretary of the Party branch and head of the Construction Engineering Quality Supervision Station in Muping District, Yantai City, Shandong Province, reported to the organization to organize 18 wedding banquets for his daughter. However, in the actual banquet process, a total of 4 times were adopted in advance and in batches. There were 34 tables and more than 300 banquets.

Some party members and cadres were worried that their identity would be exposed, so they did not come forward, and arranged or acquiesced to arrange or acquiesce in the handling and collection of gifts by relatives and friends of non-party cadres.

In order to evade the supervision of the local discipline inspection and supervision agencies and the masses, some people went to different places to hold banquets.

  "It's all human relations", "just follow the country's customs", "others are doing it, no problem"... A considerable number of people involved are attributed to "local customs" and "human affections."

This also reflects the fact that some party members and cadres dare not fight or resist in the face of unhealthy trends, and even follow the trend with a fluke mentality and blindly follow the crowd.

  "You can't wipe your affection, follow the trend and give gifts." It is not easy for the banquet party to refuse.

"He was my old leader. Everyone went to give gifts and congratulations. Can I not go?" A cadre complained to reporters. He had drove more than 70 kilometers, only to give a gift of 800 yuan on time.

  "The more you are at the grassroots level, the denser the social network of human relations will be intertwined." According to Xiao Ruining, a lecturer at the China Academy of Discipline Inspection and Supervision, grassroots party members and leading cadres are at the center of this network, and their powers involve many specific matters concerning the interests of the masses. The relocation of hukou, to the implementation of the policy of benefiting the people and enterprises, requires the coordination of county and village cadres.

"When a grassroots leading cadre has something at home, the masses will naturally bring it along, not to mention subordinates, colleagues, and business leaders."

  In response to the frequent occurrence of large-scale operations during the holiday season, disciplinary inspection and supervision agencies in many places keep an eye on key nodes and put forward supervision.

The relevant supervision and inspection office of the Beijing Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection and the agencies assigned to it closely follow the letters and visits and reports, and conduct supervision and inspections in commodity supermarkets and restaurants, and immediately investigate and deal with clues that party members and cadres are doing well.

Disciplinary inspection committees of all districts organize rural community disciplinary inspection committees to play the role of grass-roots integrity sentimentalists, and convey the promotion of integrity by holding village (resident) representative meetings, sending integrity reminder text messages, and interviewing party members, cadres and public officials with red and white matters at home. Main melody.

  While rigorously investigating and punishing, it is also necessary to use systems to regulate the behavior of party members and cadres.

The Heilongjiang Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection issued the "Notice on Regulating Provincial Management of Leading Cadres in the Management of Weddings and Funerals and Celebrations", clarifying specific standards from the city, county, and township levels, and implementing a strict reporting system to control the number of people and money Count, guide the whole society to form a good atmosphere of changing customs, diligence and thrift.

  Stop the bad practices and handle bad habits, and start with the promotion of changing customs.

Based on the culture of filial piety and integrity accumulated in Bamin, the Commission for Discipline Inspection of Fujian Province has carried out in-depth activities to create "One Town, One Filial Piety and Integrity". It uses filial piety and integrity culture to cultivate family and social customs, further enhance the cadres and the masses’ sense of identification with customs and customs, and promote the migration of customs and customs. Keep going deep and real.
