Opening a new game, China's NPC and CPPCC interpret "knowingly stop and then there will be a certainty"

  China News Agency reporter An Yingzhao

  In 2021, the two sessions of China completed the agenda on the 11th, and the curtain came to a successful conclusion.

In 8 days, nearly 3,000 deputies to the National People’s Congress and more than 2,000 members of the CPPCC gathered in Beijing to discuss the state of the country, using practical actions to interpret the contemporary meaning of "knowing the stop and then having the certainty".

  One is to anchor development goals.

  The Fourth Session of the 13th National People's Congress reviewed and approved the "14th Five-Year Plan" and the 2035 long-term goal outline, and China's development blueprint for the next 5 to 15 years is clearly on paper.

  The government work report set the economic growth target for 2021 at "6% or more", and delineated the "lower limit" for economic operation in the first year of the "14th Five-Year Plan"; the planning outline did not retain GDP as the main indicator, but " Keep within a reasonable range, and put forward according to the situation in each year," to reserve more flexible adjustment space for future high-quality development.

  Between this quantification and desalination, there is the wisdom of the Chinese to "calculate big accounts".

In the process of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way, GDP growth is no longer the only “baton” of China’s development. Instead, it is replaced by a series of more sensible things such as highlighting innovation, focusing on environmental protection, and caring about people’s livelihood under the new development concept. Key indicators.

  From the average annual increase in R&D expenditure of the whole society by more than 7%, to the reduction of energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions per unit of GDP by 13.5% and 18% respectively, to the increase in the urbanization rate of the permanent population to 65%, and the unemployment rate in the urban survey Within 5.5%, and the average life expectancy increased by 1 year... Behind every seemingly "small goal", it reflects China's confidence and determination to develop in the next five years, which is a guide for taking advantage of the situation and embarking on a new journey to build a socialist modern country in an all-round way. Up the direction.

  The second is to stabilize international expectations.

  How will China, entering a new historical stage, get along with the world?

Will China's opening-up policy be adjusted under the dual-cycle structure?

In the face of concerns, questions and even doubts from the outside world, China has released full sincerity and goodwill to the world through the information field of the two sessions.

  The government work report stated that China will implement wider, broader, and deeper opening up this year to better participate in international economic cooperation.

The four "geng" characters have become a notable footnote to China's high-level opening up.

  The modest growth of the annual defense budget has attracted attention. China has made it clear that it will continue to maintain a moderate and steady increase in defense expenditure, which is justified and reasonable, and reiterated that China adheres to the path of peaceful development, pursues a defensive defense policy, and strengthens national defense construction without targeting or threatening any country.

  How to compose a new chapter in China's diplomacy? Through the two sessions, China will actively develop friendly relations with other countries, continuously enhance mutual understanding between China and the world, and firmly assume the rational and positive voice of the "first echelon" for the equitable distribution of vaccines.

  In the context of the intertwining of the epidemic in the century and the changes in the past century, a China that emphasizes sentiment, determination, principle, and responsibility will surely deliver more warmth and hope to the world and inject more confidence and strength into the common development of all countries.

  The third is to stabilize people's livelihood and well-being.

  People's livelihood is the biggest politics, and it is also a hot topic in the public opinion field of China's two sessions.

Among the 20 main indicators in the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, 7 are related to people's livelihood and welfare, accounting for more than one-third, which is the highest in all five-year plans.

  During the National Two Sessions, the livelihood hotspots of rural revitalization, common prosperity, fair employment, smart elderly care, and elegant living were fully discussed, and relevant ministries and commissions also began to deploy and implement the latest policies and measures to ensure people's livelihood and well-being.

  What is certain is that China will work hard to make up for shortcomings in people's livelihood, solve people's livelihood problems, and secure the bottom line of people's livelihood.

Doing a good job in employment, education, social security, medical care, old-age care, childcare, housing and other livelihood matters, and improving the accessibility and equalization of public services will be the focus of future livelihood security work.

  "Knowledge stop and then there will be determination" is the opening quote of "University".

The word "stop" means "foot", which is later extended to "stand by the heel", which means "positioning".

Zhu Xi explained it as "the one who stops, the place where it should stop is the place where the best is. Knowing it will lead to orientation."

  Those who know stop stop at the best.

The National Two Sessions this year coincided with the historical intersection of the "two centenary" goals. At a new starting point, China pointed to a clear development direction with a clear target positioning, releasing a triple "certainty."

Enhancing the country, letting the world have faith, and letting the people have hope is also the state of perfection that is constantly pursued in the process of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
