According to the 2022 Edelman Trust Barometer report:
Chinese people's trust in government ranks first in the world
News from this newspaper (Reporter Liu Xiaoyan) On the 18th, Edelman, the world's largest public relations consulting company, released the "2022 Edelman Trust Barometer" report, showing that Chinese people's trust in the government will reach 91% in 2021, an increase of 9 percentage points year-on-year. No. 1 in the world.
In terms of the national comprehensive trust index, China is as high as 83%, an increase of 11 percentage points year-on-year, ranking first in the world.
In response, Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said at a regular press conference yesterday that I have taken note of the relevant reports, as well as the "Edelman Trust Barometer" in 2017 and 2018, showing that the Chinese people's trust in the government is degree is the highest among the countries surveyed.
This year, Chinese people's trust in the government is the highest in a decade.
As we have said many times, the results of polls conducted by Harvard Kennedy School in China for 10 consecutive years show that the Chinese people's satisfaction with the government has remained above 90% year after year.
This is consistent with the relevant polling data of the "Edelman Trust Barometer".
Zhao Lijian said, as a Chinese citizen and public servant, I am not surprised by this.
The reason why the Chinese people's trust in the government has remained at the top of the list year after year is that this trust stems from the responsibility of the Communist Party of China and the Chinese government.
We adhere to the supremacy of the people, that everything is for the people, and everything depends on the people, that we govern for the people and rely on the people to govern, that development is for the people, that development depends on the people, and that the fruits of development are shared by the people.
At the same time, we are also soberly aware that there are still various risks and challenges on the way forward for China.
We must be vigilant in times of danger.
Zhao Lijian pointed out that I also noticed that the CEO of Edelman said that China has successfully controlled the epidemic, which has built confidence in the government for its people.
Not only that, China is also actively helping other countries around the world to fight the epidemic.
It also strengthens the confidence of peoples in their governments.
"I want to emphasize that China has not only created a model for epidemic prevention and control with practical actions, but has also been setting a benchmark for solidarity and anti-epidemic through strengthening international cooperation." Zhao Lijian said that China will continue to stand at the height of safeguarding the lives and health of all mankind. Contribute China's strength to the world's final victory over the epidemic, and promote the building of a community of human health.
