The upcoming October 1st is not only the 71st National Day, but also the 65th anniversary of the establishment of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.
From September 25 to 26, the third Central Xinjiang Work Forum was held in Beijing.
General Secretary Xi Jinping delivered an important speech at the meeting, which focused on explaining the party's strategy for governing Xinjiang in the new era.
To understand this important strategy, we might as well observe and analyze it from the perspective of the "four ones".
A general goal: the focus and focus of Xinjiang work
Six years ago, Xi Jinping said when attending the second Central Xinjiang Work Symposium that practice has proved that our party’s strategy for governing Xinjiang is correct and must be adhered to for a long time to maintain strategic determination.
At the same time, we must combine the situation in Xinjiang to enrich and perfect the party's strategy for governing Xinjiang.
At this year’s symposium, the general secretary said that since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Party Central Committee has deepened its understanding and grasp of the laws governing Xinjiang and formed the Party’s general strategy for governing Xinjiang in the new era.
Just one month before this symposium, the General Secretary summarized the Party’s strategy for governing Tibet in the new era with "10 Musts" at the Seventh Central Tibet Work Symposium, which included the strategy that the General Secretary has repeatedly talked about. Thought: "To govern the country, we must govern the border, and we must first stabilize Tibet."
In the new era of the Party’s strategy for governing Xinjiang, it also reiterated the general goal of Xinjiang’s work that has been repeatedly emphasized: “social stability and long-term stability”.

Six years ago, in April 2014, Xi Jinping emphasized during his inspection work in Xinjiang that social stability and long-term stability in Xinjiang are related to the overall situation of national reform, development and stability, the reunification of the motherland, national unity, national security, and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
The general secretary clearly pointed out that under the new situation, the focus and focus of work in Xinjiang must be on social stability and long-term stability.
This is the overall goal of doing the current work in Xinjiang.
At the second Central Xinjiang Work Symposium held a month later, Xi Jinping reiterated this general goal.
He demanded that severely combating violent and terrorist activities must be the focus of the current struggle, hold high the banner of the socialist rule of law, vigorously improve the early warning capabilities of mass defense and mass governance, build copper walls and iron walls, and build a net of heaven and earth.

"Current Affairs News Eye" found that after six years, "ruling Xinjiang according to law, uniting and stabilizing Xinjiang, and building Xinjiang for a long time" expanded to "ruling Xinjiang according to law, uniting and stabilizing Xinjiang, culturally moistening Xinjiang, enriching the people and building Xinjiang for a long time", but "Ruling Xinjiang according to law" has always been the top priority.
At this forum, Xi Jinping emphasized that to maintain the overall stability of Xinjiang’s society in a sustained and long-term stability, we must hold high the banner of the socialist rule of law, promote the spirit of the rule of law, and implement the requirements of comprehensive rule of law in all areas of Xinjiang work.

One problem: the longest problem in Xinjiang
Xinjiang has been an area inhabited by many ethnic groups since ancient times.
Today, 25 million compatriots from 56 ethnic groups live in this vast territory that accounts for about one-sixth of the land area.
At the Central Xinjiang Work Symposium six years ago, Xi Jinping made this conclusion: The longest problem in Xinjiang is the issue of ethnic unity.
△On March 25, 2017, the first train of the "National Unity One Family" started from Urumqi to Hotan.
Nearly 900 cadres and employees on the train went to the four states of southern Xinjiang to get married and recognize their relatives to provide assistance.
At that forum, the general secretary said that all ethnic groups should understand each other, respect each other, tolerate each other, appreciate each other, learn from each other, and help each other, and hug each other like pomegranate seeds.
Pomegranate is a mascot in traditional Chinese culture. When the pomegranate fruit matures, it has many chambers and many seeds, with full grains and hugs each other.
This wonderful metaphor of the general secretary has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people ever since.
△On July 2, 2017, the "National Unity One Family" express train lasted for a hundred days, and the staff gave passengers hundreds of cakes on the same day.
In March 2017, when participating in the deliberations of the Xinjiang delegation, the General Secretary added two metaphors before the "Parable of Pomegranate Seeds": "We must cherish national unity as our own eyes, and cherish nationality as our own lives. Unity.” This shows the importance of national unity in the heart of the General Secretary.

A key word: An important foundation for long-term stability in Xinjiang
Doing a good job in Xinjiang and handling the relationship between development and stability is the top priority.
General Secretary Xi Jinping clearly pointed out at this symposium: Development is an important foundation for the long-term stability of Xinjiang.
He focused on a "golden key" for Xinjiang's development.
Xinjiang is located in the core area of the ancient Silk Road.
When visiting Xinjiang in April 2014, the general secretary emphasized that Xinjiang must seize the historical opportunity of building the Silk Road Economic Belt.
At that time, he described it this way: "If the Silk Road Economic Belt is built, Xinjiang will likely become a prosperous center. Let alone, Urumqi is now the largest city with a radius of 1,500 kilometers. What will it be like by then? "
△On September 20th, the Urumqi International Grand Bazaar was opened to welcome guests.
A month later, General Secretary Xi Jinping presided over a meeting of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee.
The meeting proposed to focus on building the core area of the Xinjiang Silk Road Economic Belt.
At this year’s symposium, the general secretary said that it is necessary to give full play to Xinjiang’s location advantages, drive the construction of the core area of the Silk Road Economic Belt, and incorporate Xinjiang’s own regional opening strategy into the overall layout of the country’s westward opening up. Open inland and open highlands along the border.
△September 8, Urumqi International Dry Port Area, a China-Europe train full of daily necessities set off.
Economic development and improvement of people's livelihood are inseparable.
Xi Jinping focused on two major issues: persevering in the fight against poverty and promoting employment.
He also has two special concerns.
One is Southern Xinjiang.
The four prefectures in southern Xinjiang are one of the "three regions and three prefectures" in the country's deeply impoverished areas.
The last symposium proposed that, for the development of southern Xinjiang, special policies should be implemented, routines should be broken, and special affairs should be handled.
At this forum, the general secretary pointed out that it is necessary to vigorously promote the economic and social development of southern Xinjiang and the improvement of people's livelihood.

△ Shache County, Kashgar, Xinjiang develops poverty alleviation industries such as dairy cow breeding and dairy product processing.
One is the Corps.
When visiting Xinjiang six years ago, Xi Jinping emphasized that under the new situation, the work of the Corps can only be strengthened, not weakened.
At this symposium, the general secretary pointed out that it is necessary to continuously enhance the organizational advantages and mobilization capabilities of the Corps to better play its special role.

In 2018, Beita Mountain Ranch was relieved of poverty as a whole.
A team: vital to the stability and development of Xinjiang
Xi Jinping once pointed out that building a contingent of high-quality cadres that are politically strong and can withstand the test of storms is of vital importance to Xinjiang's stability and development.
In 2009, when he was investigating in Xinjiang, he emphasized that the key to doing well in Xinjiang lies in the party. The first thing is to build a team of high-quality cadres.
At the last Central Xinjiang Work Symposium, the general secretary emphasized the need to vigorously select cadres who are loyal to the party, dare to speak out at critical moments, have strong mass work capabilities, respond to emergencies, and manage complex situations.
At this forum, he pointed out that it is necessary to ensure that leadership at all levels is always firmly in the hands of loyal, clean and responsible cadres.

At the Seventh Central Tibet Work Forum, the general secretary proposed that the "old Tibetan spirit" should be carried forward. There is no lack of oxygen and no lack of spirit, hardships are not afraid of hardship, and the altitude is higher.
For Xinjiang cadres, the general secretary’s request is to practice the Populus euphratica spirit and the XPCC spirit, and encourage cadres at all levels to take root in the border and contribute to the border in the new era.

At the symposium, General Secretary Xi Jinping also talked about the need to tell Xinjiang stories well in a multi-level, all-round, and three-dimensional manner, and confidently promote the good social stability of Xinjiang and the happy life of the people in peace and contentment.
