(Express of the two sessions) Huang Gairong, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference: "Everyone Participates" is a Positive View on Ageing
China News Service, Beijing, March 7 (Reporter Li Xuefeng Li Shuangnan) On the morning of the 7th, the second "member channel" was held before the second plenary meeting of the fifth session of the 13th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.
Huang Gairong, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and director of the Department of Geriatrics of Henan Provincial People's Hospital, was the first to step into the member channel.
She said that everyone's participation in the cause of aging is a positive outlook on aging.
She said the two things older people are most concerned about are health and well-being.
"Health is being able to recover from illness, being able to hear and see clearly, and being able to take care of oneself in life; happiness is having fun in life, being needed, and not being left behind."
Huang Gairong believes that the elderly have rich knowledge and resources, and they still have advantages in many aspects. They are an important force for cultural inheritance and social progress.
She used the stories around her as an example. A 93-year-old dermatologist consults every working day and receives dozens of patients. After work, she also preaches popular science knowledge on the WeChat public account. Some people advise the old expert to take a break. After a break, the old expert said: "Only when you go to the doctor can you be happy, and when you are happy, you will be healthy. Aging is not scary, and the spirit is the motor."
Huang Gairong pointed out that at present, the state is also taking a series of measures to continue to make efforts for the happy life of the elderly.
"Whether you want to be healthy or happy, the elderly should have an optimistic attitude and actively participate in social activities. The society should also create conditions to help everyone achieve old age. A life free from illness, loneliness, and fun must be a happy old age." ( over)
