China News Service, January 31 (China News Business Reporter Zuo Yukun) To bridge the gap between "the height of the temple" and "the distance of the rivers and lakes", every year, the convening of the provincial and local Two Sessions is regarded as the prelude to the National Two Sessions. This year, the provincial and local two sessions have frequently expressed refreshing, inspiring, and energetic expressions, and the big picture behind it can be understood from the small details.

Listen to the statement, details support people's livelihood

  "We must really get used to living a 'tight life'. Keep in mind that fiscal money is the people's money, and no penny can be spent indiscriminately. We must resolutely reduce unnecessary expenditures, severely punish squandering and wasteful behavior, and use limited funds to their fullest potential." In terms of development, use it for the common people!”

  Recently, the remarks made by Li Bingjun, the governor of Guizhou Province, during his government work report were hotly commented by many netizens. In 2023, Guizhou will strictly enforce financial discipline, implement the requirements of "tight living" and resolutely reduce non-urgent and non-rigid expenditures; in 2024, it will continue to coordinate financial resources and do a solid job in "ten practical matters for people's livelihood."

  Mao Weiming, Governor of Hunan Province, delivered a work report on behalf of the Provincial People's Government: "Turn what the masses think about into what the government does, and what the government wants to do into what the masses support." "Beautiful countryside, rich folks, and mellow local flavor are our common aspiration. We must use new thinking and new measures to strive to promote the 'great changes in mountains and villages' in the new era."

  Mao Weiming pointed out that this year is the 20th year that the Hunan Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government have publicly promised to do practical things for the people and included practical projects in the government work report. They must scientifically plan this year's top ten key people's livelihood practical things to ensure that they are more tangible and tangible. And, more powerful.

  "People's livelihood is all around us, and we must carefully understand and truly focus on the issues that the people are most concerned about, worried about, worried about, and expect most." Huang Qiang, Governor of Sichuan Province, also emphasized the focus and direction of people's livelihood work.

  In recent years, the Sichuan Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government have coordinated and implemented 30 provincial-level people's livelihood practical matters every year, solving urgent, difficult and anxious problems that a large number of people are concerned about. This includes doing everything possible to stabilize and expand employment, ensure the bottom line of people's livelihood, improve the quality of public services, and enrich the cultural life of the people.

  "When there is a conflict between industrial projects, economic growth speed and the ecological environment, it is better to abandon the project or slow down the speed, but also to protect the ecological environment." After this paragraph was mentioned for the first time in the 2023 Fujian Provincial Government Work Report, This year, Fujian Province Governor Zhao Long made another appearance when delivering a government work report to the General Assembly on behalf of the Fujian Provincial People's Government.

  As an ecological province, Fujian is proud of its green waters and lush mountains. Zhao Long said, “This year I won’t talk too much, but always talk about important things, emphasizing again and again, in order to let everyone firmly take root in the awareness of ecological civilization construction in their minds.

Set goals and take responsibility as a major economic province

  The style of conversation is simple and pragmatic. During the provincial and local two sessions, while publishing their 2023 report cards, they also “submitted” “plans” for key tasks in 2024.

  Sino-Singapore Finance found that from the perspective of expected economic growth targets, various regions are full of fighting spirit to "fight for the economy". “5” has become a key number, and most provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) have set their expected economic growth targets in 2024 at around 5% to 6%.

  For example, the GDP growth targets of Shanghai, Beijing, Jiangxi, Shanxi and other places are all around 5%, Shandong, Guangxi, Jiangsu and other places have set GDP growth targets above 5%, Hebei, Zhejiang, Fujian, Liaoning and other places have GDP growth targets of around 5.5%, and Chongqing, Gansu, Sichuan, Ningxia, Anhui and other places are about 6%, and Hainan and Tibet have set goals of about 8%.

  As the "locomotive" of China's economic development, how the six major economic provinces of Guangdong, Jiangsu, Shandong, Henan, Sichuan and Zhejiang play the leading role has also attracted much attention.

  After becoming the first province with an annual GDP exceeding 13 trillion yuan, the Guangdong Provincial Government Work Report put forward clear requirements for the province's major economic cities: promoting high-quality development and rebuilding a "New Guangdong" requires the efforts of 21 cities in the province. Promising people, working hard and moving forward quickly, the economic market must show a "big appearance and big responsibility"; they must dare to drink "head soup" and bravely enter the "no man's land". Zhejiang has also raised its GDP target to "around 5.5%" from "above 5%" last year.

  At present, it seems that from the beginning of 2024, all major economic provinces will choose to deploy major project investments as one of the main driving forces for economic development. For example, Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee Secretary Nobunaga Xing previously emphasized that “major projects are the ballast stone for stable economic operation and the hard support for us to really take on the important tasks.”

Focus on hard work and go all out to fight for economy

  How to do everything well in a down-to-earth manner? New productivity, promoting consumption, developing cultural undertakings, etc. have become high-frequency words.

  Leading the construction of a modern industrial system with technological innovation has become a consensus in many places. Guangdong proposed to start again with the ambition of "rebuilding a new Guangdong", Sichuan proposed to "build an innovation highland in the western region", Zhejiang proposed to "strengthen the construction of high-energy science and technology innovation platform", and Shandong proposed to "accelerate the creation of an industrial science and technology innovation highland".

  Expanding domestic demand remains the top priority, and strengthening new consumption has been mentioned as a priority. Shandong proposed to "actively promote bulk consumption and new consumption", Sichuan proposed to "cultivate new consumption growth points and better meet the consumption needs of the 'old and small'", and Jiangsu proposed to "vigorously develop digital consumption, green consumption, health consumption, sports and leisure consumption, and create more domestic 'trendy products' and new consumption scenarios."

  It is worth noting that from Guizhou’s “Village Supermarket” to Zibo Barbecue and then to Harbin’s continued popularity, my country’s cultural tourism industry has shown a vigorous recovery and strong momentum since last year. Another highlight of this year's local two sessions is that "Poetry and Distance" has become a key item in the work reports of many local governments.

  The popularity of Harbin's ice and snow tourism has been included in the work report of the Heilongjiang Provincial Government, which revealed some "cultural tourism secrets": In 2023, Heilongjiang Province will introduce plans and implementation plans to support the high-quality development of tourism, and formulate and implement plans to release the potential of tourism consumption50 20 measures were taken to accelerate the development of border specialty tourism, and special actions for tourism management were completed. The two "100-day actions" for summer summer vacation and winter ice and snow tourism have achieved remarkable results.

  In addition, Shandong proposed to "vigorously develop cultural undertakings and cultural industries, promote the in-depth integrated development of culture and tourism, and continue to strengthen the 'Hospitality Shandong Haopin Shandong' brand"; Henan emphasized "exploiting the potential of cultural tourism consumption, accelerating the integration of culture, tourism and cultural creativity, and "Walking in Henan and understanding China' will create an internationally renowned cultural tourism brand with high recognition, high dissemination and high reputation"... In the new year, "one industry prospers" and "hundred industries thrive" in the development of the cultural tourism industry The new pattern is worth looking forward to. (over)
