2022-03-03
The national two sessions are about to open. This year is the year of the 20th CPC National Congress. It is an important year to enter the new journey of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way and marching towards the second Centennial goal. How to take the new "test drive" has attracted worldwide attention. This year, deputies to the National People's Congress and members of the Chinese people's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) have entered their fifth year in the performance of their duties. They should look forward to what topics they will focus on and what signals of China's development will be released at the meeting. How to stabilize the economic market? At present, China's economy has strong resilience and sufficient potential, and the fundamentals of long-term improvement have not changed; At the same time, it also faces the triple pressure of shrinking demand, supply shock and weakening expectation. The central economic work conference held at the end of last year stressed that efforts should be made to stabilize the macro-economic market. Zhang Liqun, a researcher at the Macroeconomic Research Department of the development research center of the State Council, said that in the face of the intertwined impact of the epidemic in the century and the changes in the past century, China's economy should be stable and seek progress while maintaining stability. By stabilizing the economic market, we can overcome the impact of the epidemic, stabilize the bottom line of people's livelihood and take the lead in a new round of growth. How to set the main expected goals of economic and social development at the two sessions has attracted much attention. Zhang Liqun said that taking into account the economic growth rate in the past two years, as well as the internal and external environment, economic growth potential and other conditions, and actively and steadily setting targets for economic growth, employment and prices this year will help guide the expectations of all sectors of society, boost market confidence and promote the economic operation in a reasonable range. Recently, a series of policies to stabilize the economy have been intensively launched from demand to supply, foreign trade, industrial economy and service industry; Investment is an important starting point for steady growth, and major projects in the fields of "new infrastructure", people's livelihood and environmental protection have been accelerated. It is worth looking forward to what policies and measures will be introduced to stabilize the economic market during the two sessions this year. How to support the expansion of effective investment in key areas, the rational arrangement of local bonds, the implementation of more large-scale tax cuts and fee reductions, the stabilization of the real estate market, the strengthening of energy supply, and the strengthening of support for the real economy, especially small and micro enterprises and scientific and technological innovation enterprises, will be hotly discussed by the representatives and members. According to Bai chongen, member of the CPPCC National Committee and President of the school of economics and management of Tsinghua University, increasing infrastructure investment is an important means of steady growth, and it is very important to choose "right" investment projects. Investment in scientific and technological innovation, digital transformation of manufacturing industry, green and low-carbon transformation and other related fields can not only create short-term demand, but also lay a good foundation for medium and long-term sustainable development. How to make progress in important fields? Only by seeking progress in stability can we make steady progress. In many important areas, how to plan and deploy this year's work and how to continue to promote reform are important concerns of the deputies and members. 2022 is a key year for consolidating and expanding the achievements of poverty alleviation and effectively connecting with rural revitalization. In February 22nd, the No. 1 central document issued this year, which defined two bottom lines: ensuring national food security and not returning to poverty in scale. Three priorities - rural development, rural construction and rural governance. Cheng Guoqiang, a professor at the school of agriculture and rural development of Renmin University of China, said that in addition to implementing the hard measures for the protection of cultivated land with "long teeth", we should pay attention to improving the enthusiasm of farmers in terms of grain production and the supply of important agricultural products. In view of the weak foundation of economic development in some places and the low income of some people out of poverty, we should strengthen dynamic and accurate monitoring, consolidate and improve characteristic industries in poverty-stricken areas, and increase financial security services. Achieving the goal of "double carbon" is a broad and profound change. In January this year, the state issued relevant policies to promote green consumption, calling for expanding the supply and consumption of green and low-carbon products. At the previous two local conferences, "double carbon" and green and low-carbon development have become the highlight of the work of many local governments, and the layout of new energy has been listed in the target list one after another. Liu Qiang, a researcher at the Institute of quantitative economics and technical economics of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, believes that controlling fossil energy consumption, promoting the development of new energy and clean energy, promoting the in-depth integration of emerging technologies such as Internet big data, artificial intelligence and 5g with low-carbon industries, curbing the blind development of "two high" projects, and promoting the transformation from "dual control" of energy to "dual control" of total and intensity of carbon emissions. After building a well-off society in an all-round way, China has entered a historical stage of solidly promoting common prosperity. How to effectively plan and explore the path will become an important concern of the deputies and members. Liu Xueliang, director of the Income Distribution Research Office of the Institute of economics of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said that promoting common prosperity and high-quality development are the premise, foundation and necessary conditions. We should fully, accurately and comprehensively implement the new development concept, focus on solving the regional gap, urban-rural gap and income gap, and focus on a series of innovative and breakthrough major measures. How can people's livelihood security continue to be strengthened? Stabilizing employment is the top priority of ensuring people's livelihood. The total number of employed people in China is large, and the employment structural contradiction is prominent. In particular, the employment of youth groups focusing on college graduates is facing great pressure. The public is looking forward to more and more specific opinions and suggestions on how to create more employment opportunities, maximize the adaptability of people to posts, and implement the labor security of 200 million flexible employment groups. Xu Guangjian, a professor at the Institute of public finance and public policy, School of public administration, Renmin University of China, said that we should be vigilant against imported inflation pressure, continue to maintain the stability of consumer prices, protect people's "vegetable basket" and "rice bag", and strengthen the protection of low-income groups, especially poor groups. Housing concerns thousands of households. The task of "stabilizing land prices, house prices and expectations" is arduous. Under the principle of "housing without speculation", how to meet the reasonable housing demand and maintain the virtuous circle and healthy development of the real estate market is a topic of general concern to the whole society. How can epidemic prevention and control be more accurate? Recently, the global epidemic has fluctuated repeatedly. More than a dozen provinces in China have reported new locally confirmed cases. The domestic epidemic is characterized by multiple points, wide range, frequent occurrence and superposition of delta and Omicron variants. How to do a good job in the normalization of epidemic prevention and control is the focus of social attention. Mi Feng, spokesman of the National Health Commission, recently pointed out that it is necessary to seize the early key "window period" for the disposal of aggregated epidemic situations, resolutely and decisively take various prevention and control measures to achieve "social clearance" as soon as possible. "Precision" has become a keyword for epidemic prevention and control. Wu Zunyou, chief epidemiologist of China CDC, believes that under the premise of adhering to the general strategy of "external defense input and internal defense rebound" and the general policy of "dynamic clearing", all localities should pay more attention to accurate prevention and control, accurate treatment and accurate guarantee. In the next step, how to further strengthen monitoring and early warning, improve screening efficiency, precise prevention and control, accelerate the expansion of high-quality medical resources and regional balanced layout, and promote more flexibility and resilience of medical treatment resources and public health system remains to be put forward by the representatives and members. How to revise the local organization law? An important agenda of this year's National People's Congress is to review the organic law of the people's Republic of China on local people's congresses and local people's governments at all levels (Revised Draft). The local organization law is a basic law on the organization and working system of local people's congresses and local governments. It was adopted in 1979 and has been revised five times. In 2021, the fourth session of the 13th National People's Congress adopted a decision to amend the organic law of the National People's Congress and the rules of procedure of the National People's Congress. Amending the local organization law is another important measure to uphold and improve the people's Congress system after amending the organic law of the National People's Congress. A highlight of the draft amendment is that it responds to the new situations and problems faced by local people's congresses and local people's governments at all levels, and further improves the relevant organizations and working systems. For example, refine the functions and powers of local people's congresses and their standing committees, further standardize the setting and names of special committees of people's congresses at the provincial and municipal levels, clarify the basic principles of building a government under the rule of law, a service-oriented government and a clean government, and add relevant contents to meet the needs of the reform of the supervision system. "Grass roots governance is an important part of the national governance system, but there are still some problems in practical work, such as the single functions and powers of grass-roots people's congresses and grass-roots governments, and the unclear role of the Standing Committee of grass-roots people's congresses, which need to be standardized and clarified by law." Sun Xianzhong, deputy to the National People's Congress and member of the academic department of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said. In addition, the draft amendment to the local organic law also adds relevant provisions on "upholding people's democracy in the whole process" of local people's congresses at all levels, the standing committees of local people's congresses at or above the county level and local people's governments at all levels.
