Clean wind and honesty serve as the foundation of government. Honesty makes things happen
2022-04-18
Since ancient times, "honesty" has always been an important theme of governing the country and stabilizing the country. Chinese dynasties have put forward many anti-corruption ideas, implemented many anti-corruption measures, and constantly endowed new connotation of integrity. The Han Dynasty put forward the "avoidance" system to prevent cronyism, and the Song Dynasty asked the censor to "hear about things"... Some measures not only played a positive role at that time, but also have reference significance today. Honesty is the foundation of politics. Ancient Chinese thinkers and politicians all regarded honesty as one of the most important qualities in politics. Zhou Li first mentions the thought of paying equal attention to honesty and energy and taking honesty as the foundation. Yanzi Chunqiu proposed that "honesty is the foundation of government", and regarded "honesty" as the foundation of government. Mencius believed that "you can take, you can not take, and you will hurt honesty", which clarified the understanding of the two opposite values of honesty and greed. Han Feizi directly pointed out the characteristics of incorruptible officials: "the so-called incorruptible person must have a life and death life, and light wealth." Successive dynasties also established various supervision and anti-corruption institutions and formulated a series of clean government systems, which developed steadily on the basis of honesty. Honesty is the foundation of success. Shi haigoushen can not only elaborate on a "history of clean officials", but also write a "spectrum of corrupt officials". In a moment of pure greed, he decides whether an official can succeed. Honest and clean officials often put the interests of the people first, and then achieve a career. Nanyang prefect Yang of the Eastern Han Dynasty continued to "hang fish and refuse Bribes" to solve problems for the people, and officials were too often; Xu Mian, the Minister of the Ministry of officials of the Southern Dynasty, "stopped talking and talked about the moon", and the book of commandments written in his later years can still give people profound enlightenment; In the Ming Dynasty, Hai Rui severely punished corrupt officials, prohibited taking bribes for personal gain, and forced corrupt officials to return to the people, which was called "haiqingtian" by the people... In contrast, most corrupt officials put their personal interests above the country and the people in order to meet their personal desires, and finally ended up in disgrace. Zhao Gao, who called deer a horse, manipulated taxes and embezzled, which accelerated the demise of the Qin Dynasty to a certain extent; Liu Jin, who took bribes to enrich himself, repeatedly made unjust cases, which greatly damaged the vitality of the Ming Dynasty; Even though he, who amassed money, was eventually brought down, the corrupt officials represented by him had eroded the court platform for a long time, and the decline of the Qing Dynasty was difficult to stop under the wind of corruption. "To be able to see ordinary officials, public integrity is the first difficulty." The ancients believed that the most difficult thing to be an official was whether he could be honest, which was not limited to being honest for a while, but honest for a lifetime. This persistence is an important foundation for success. If we do not take a steady and steady step in integrity, success will not be sustainable in the long run. During his tenure as governor of Duanzhou, Bao Zheng found out the truth that successive local officials exploited the people in the name of paying tribute to Duanzhou inkstones, but before leaving, he was unwilling to accept the excellent Duanzhou inkstones presented by the people of Duanzhou, so he later had the reputation of "serving for three years in Duanzhou and not holding one inkstone back". In the contemporary era, Gu Wenchang, Secretary of the "Four Haves", has "engaged in revolution without selfishness and devoted himself to the people" and "those who are leaders should first wash their hands and straighten their waist". The style of being honest and honest for the people has become the spiritual support of his entrepreneurship. Finally, he led the people of Dongshan to fight hard for more than ten years and overcome the sandstorm of "it is difficult to cure all gods". When he was transferred from Dongshan in 1964, he returned the more than 20 yuan spent on a treat to the Secretary and said that "I can't be reimbursed from the balance of the canteen, so I can easily go to Fuzhou". Take honesty as the foundation and accomplish things with honesty. The majority of Party members and cadres should keep the bottom line of honesty, lay the foundation with honesty, be cautious at the beginning, be diligent for the people, and establish a good image of loyalty, cleanliness and responsibility of Party members and cadres in the new era.
