Without stability, where is development? Without national prosperity, where is the people's security? Security and development are like the two wheels of a car and the two wings of a bird, and any obvious shortcomings on either side will affect the country's prosperity, social stability and people's happiness.
The current and future period is a critical period to fully promote the construction of a strong nation and national rejuvenation with Chinese-style modernization, and the importance of national security has become more prominent. The Decision of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Further Comprehensively Deepening Reform and Promoting Chinese-style Modernization (hereinafter referred to as the "Decision"), which was considered and passed by the Third Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee, emphasizes that "national security is an important foundation for the steady progress of Chinese-style modernization," and puts forward that "it is necessary to comprehensively carry out the overall concept of national security The Decision emphasizes that "national security is an important foundation for China's modernization to run steadily" and proposes that "the overall concept of national security must be comprehensively implemented, the system and mechanism for safeguarding national security must be perfected, high-quality development and high-level security must be interacted with each other in a benign manner, and the country's long-term stability must be guaranteed.
Looking back at the broad journey since the 18th CPC National Congress, from the establishment of the Central National Security Committee to the introduction of the Regulations on the Leadership of the Communist Party of China in National Security Work, the Provisions on the Responsibility System for National Security of Party Committees (Party Groups) and other Party regulations, from the establishment of a sound mechanism for coordinating and improving the work of national security and a coordinating and commanding system for important special projects to the promulgation and implementation of the National Security Law of the People's Republic of China, the Cyber Security Law of the People's Republic of China and the Data Security Law of the People's Republic of China. Law and the Data Security Law of the People's Republic of China, thanks to the all-round efforts of institutional, organizational and rule of law reforms, the Party's leadership of national security has become stronger, and breakthroughs have been made in the building of the national security system and capacity.
From battling epidemics and floods, to resolving crises and straining situations, to stabilizing the economy and promoting development, the Party and the national cause have withstood the challenges of security risks in all aspects, making it a vivid testament to the fact that socialism with Chinese characteristics has been "moving forward in all winds and rain".
Looking at the security situation, only by modernizing the national security system and capacity and safeguarding the new development pattern with a new security pattern can we ensure that the process of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation will not be slowed down or interrupted. In the new era and new journey, China's development is faced with new strategic opportunities, new strategic tasks, new strategic stages, new strategic requirements, and new strategic environments. On the one hand, the realization of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation has entered an irreversible historical process, and socialism with Chinese characteristics has shown vigorous vitality; on the other hand, China's reform, development and stability are faced with a number of deep-rooted contradictions that cannot be avoided and cannot be bypassed, the world's century-old changes are accelerating, and the risks and challenges from the outside have always existed and are becoming increasingly prominent. As the saying goes, "the ship is in a hurry, and the road is steeper when we are halfway up the mountain". At this critical juncture, it is especially necessary to further deepen reforms and improve the institutional mechanism for safeguarding national security, so as to be ready to withstand the major tests of high winds and waves, and even terrifying waves.
National security is not just a matter of risk assessment, but also a matter of strengthening system building and capacity building. The report of the Twentieth National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) has made a strategic plan in the form of a special chapter on "advancing the modernization of the national security system and capacity, and resolutely safeguarding national security and social stability". The Decision makes a series of important reforms and deployments centered on improving the national security system, improving the public security governance mechanism, improving the social governance system, and improving the foreign-related national security mechanism. For example, it proposes to build a linked and efficient national security protection system, promote national security science and technology empowerment; improve the major public emergencies disposal guarantee system; and establish an artificial intelligence security regulatory system. These reform initiatives have been gradually rolled out and implemented, which will further enhance the people's sense of gain, happiness and security, and bring together a strong force for the maintenance of national security.
We will step over the bumps and bruises to make a big road, and we will start again after fighting against the hardships and dangers. Continuing to push the reform forward is "an inevitable requirement to cope with major risks and challenges, and to promote the cause of the Party and the country to a stable and far-reaching conclusion". We should deeply understand the significance of "ensure national security is the top priority", resolutely implement the overall national security concept, vigorously implement the reform deployment to promote the modernization of the national security system and capacity, for the party and the country to flourish and develop, long-term stability and provide important security guarantee.
