【Event】On May 5, it was favored by young people because of the "20" homonym "I love you", which became the peak period for marriage registration every year. May 520 this year coincides with a Saturday holiday. In order to meet the couple's wish to register their marriage on May 5, the marriage registration authorities in Kaifeng, Henan, Shenzhen in Guangdong, Mianzhu in Sichuan and other places normally handle marriage registration business for newlyweds, which has been widely praised.

【Review】

Generally, marriage registries are open Monday to Friday on legal working days. But for couples, choosing to get married on May 5 contains the affection between each other and the expectation of staying with each other for life, which is particularly commemorative. In response to the expectations of the masses, the working hours were adjusted, and the relevant departments "worked overtime for love" to facilitate the beauty of serving adults, and sent a sweet blessing and strong warmth to newcomers in need.

Although there is a daily work to and from work, the needs of the masses are not divided into weekdays and weekends. In reality, due to the inconvenience of taking leave during working hours, or encountering temporary emergencies, people inevitably need to handle business on non-working days and non-working hours. In the face of the needs of the masses for handling affairs, handling urgent matters and special affairs, and "letting the masses run less errands" and "doing things for everyone" are the vivid embodiment of "the people have something to call for, and the government has something to respond to".

Outside of 8 hours, weekends should not become a "blind spot" for public services. Jilin Province Gongzhuling Municipal Service Center "noon uninterrupted", Shanghai Xuhui District Hunan Road Street Community Affairs Acceptance Service Center opened "24-hour self-service area", Xi'an City in Shaanxi Province many district and county citizen centers "weekends do not close"... With the deepening of the reform of "decentralization, management and service", all localities have continuously optimized government services and solved the problems of the masses. The extension of working hours has led to the improvement of service efficiency and the improvement of public satisfaction. Local governments are willing to be "shop second", demonstrating the fruitful results of transforming government functions and building a service-oriented government.

The window for government affairs is also a window for observing the party's work style and government style. We are pleased to see that more and more staff members respond to requests in a timely and detailed manner with warm and thoughtful, patient and meticulous service, and complete their work with due diligence. Many people reflected: the door is not difficult to enter, the face is not ugly, and the key things are no longer difficult to do. At present, the theme education on learning and implementing Xi Jinping's thought on socialism with Chinese characteristics for a new era is being carried out. The purpose of learning is to apply. Treating the small things of the masses as "big things in mind" is not only an inevitable requirement for constantly improving work style, but also the proper meaning of consolidating and deepening the achievements of thematic education.

From the cancellation of the letter of introduction of the unit, to the "registration with one mobile phone", to the recent agreement of the State Council to expand the pilot of "cross-provincial universal application" of marriage registration for mainland residents, China's marriage registration process has gradually been simplified, becoming a vivid epitome of the combination of simplified administration and decentralization. Procedures are "slimmed down", processes are "reduced", and services cannot be "shrunk". In this regard, staff need to cultivate a sense of public servant, hone their work skills, and let the service follow the demand; On the other hand, it is also necessary to improve the working mechanism, optimize the personnel allocation and incentive mechanism, and give more care to the staff while improving service efficiency. By persisting in listening to the voices of the masses and continuously improving the level of service, we will certainly be able to better meet the needs of the people and continuously advance the cause of benefiting the people.
