Director of National Development and Reform Commission: Supporting Chinese Modernization with High-quality Population Development

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, June 15th: Supporting Chinese modernization with high-quality population development — — Interview with Liu Ming, Director of Social Development Department of National Development and Reform Commission

  Xinhua News Agency reporter Chen Weiwei

  The first meeting of the 20th Central Financial and Economic Committee held recently emphasized that Chinese modernization should be supported by high-quality population development. How to correctly view the new situation of China’s population development? How to promote the high-quality development of population? Xinhua News Agency interviewed Liu Ming, director of the Social Development Department of the National Development and Reform Commission.

  Population factors can provide lasting impetus for Chinese modernization.

  Q: How to fully understand and correctly treat the new situation and new normal of China’s population development?

  A: The population problem has always been an overall, long-term and strategic problem facing China. Understanding, adapting and leading the new normal of China’s population development is the great logic to promote the high-quality development of the population at present and in the future.

  While China’s total population has maintained a large scale, the overall quality of the population has been steadily improved. The average education period of China’s labor force has reached 11 years, and the newly added labor force has reached 14 years. Coupled with the improvement of health, the improvement of labor productivity and the growth of middle-income groups, the population factor can fully provide a solid foundation and lasting motivation for Chinese modernization.

  Under the background that aging has become a basic national condition, China will actively respond to the aging of the population and become a national strategy. With the continuous improvement of health conditions, the average life expectancy in China has been continuously extended. In 2022, the number of elderly people aged 60 and over in China will reach 280 million. However, with solid material foundation, sufficient human capital and profound filial piety culture, we are fully qualified, capable and confident to deal with it effectively. Aging also contains development opportunities, such as the great potential of silver-haired economy.

  Generally speaking, China’s "demographic dividend" has not disappeared, while the "talent dividend" is taking shape, and the population quantity and quality can fully support Chinese modernization.

  Promote the realization of moderate fertility level and ensure the long-term sustainable development of population

  Q: How to grasp the requirements of high-quality population development in the new era?

  A: The high-quality development of population should implement the new development concept completely, accurately and comprehensively, and creatively answer the questions of the times of population development.

  First, adhere to innovation and development, and solve the driving force of population development. We will promote education, science and technology and talents in an all-round way, improve the education level, health level and civilized quality of the population, and promote high-quality and full employment. Promote the realization of a moderate fertility level, ensure the long-term sustainable development of the population, and stabilize the supply of newly-grown high-quality labor.

  Second, adhere to coordinated development and solve the problem of unbalanced population development. Promote the industry to follow the function, the population to follow the industry and the public service to follow the people, promote the balanced distribution, reasonable agglomeration and orderly flow of population between urban and rural areas, and support the implementation of major national and regional strategies.

  Third, adhere to green development and solve the problem of harmony between man and nature. We will improve the population policy in a targeted manner, promote the population size and distribution to adapt to the carrying capacity of local resources and environment and the suitability of land space development, and accelerate the formation of a green production and lifestyle.

  Fourth, adhere to open development and solve the problem of internal and external linkage of population development. Adhere to the combination of "bringing in" and "going out", establish a global vision of human resources development and utilization, and gather talents from all over the world to use them; Strengthen international exchange of talents and contribute talents from China to global governance.

  The fifth is to adhere to shared development and solve the problem of fairness and justice in population development. Adhere to the best efforts and capabilities, improve the basic public service system, improve the level of public services, enhance inclusiveness, balance and accessibility, and continuously improve people’s livelihood and well-being.

  Improve population quality in all directions

  Q: Facing the new situation and the new normal, how to improve the overall quality of the population and shape modern human resources?

  A: Adhere to the problem orientation, plan relevant supporting policies as a whole with a systematic concept, and focus on the following three aspects:

  Improve the quality of the population in an all-round way and cultivate the comprehensive competitiveness of the population. Adhere to the priority development of education and accelerate the construction of a high-quality education system. Vigorously develop advanced socialist culture and improve the ideological and moral quality of the population.

  Establish a positive fertility support policy system and strive to build a fertility-friendly society. Expand the effective supply of inclusive nursery and preschool education, and significantly reduce the burden of family childbirth, parenting and education.

  Stimulate the vitality of all ages and people and actively conserve human resources. Effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of workers and eliminate gender discrimination. Create a good social atmosphere and protect the rights and interests of the elderly in civilized practice, charity, voluntary service, science, education, culture and health. Get rid of the disadvantages of the system and mechanism that hinder the flow of labor force.

  Q: In the next step, what are the key considerations and arrangements of the National Development and Reform Commission to promote high-quality population development through reform and innovation?

  A: The National Development and Reform Commission will thoroughly implement the spirit of the important speech delivered by the Supreme Leader General Secretary at the first meeting of the 20th Central Financial and Economic Committee, correctly handle the relationship between the present and the long-term, the aggregate and the structure, the population and the resources and environment, accelerate the shaping of modern human resources with excellent quality, abundant aggregate, optimized structure and reasonable distribution, and support Chinese modernization with high-quality population development.

  First, focus on the high-quality development of the population and strive to improve relevant economic policies and supporting measures. Promote the benign interaction between population and economy and provide talent support for the transformation of economic development mode, the upgrading of industrial structure and the improvement of total factor productivity. Promote comprehensive decision-making on population and development, improve the demographic monitoring system, improve the mechanism of linking public resources with population, and promote the effective docking of population distribution with productivity layout, public service allocation, and resource and environment carrying capacity.

  The second is to focus on the objective needs of population development, improve public service capabilities, and strengthen people’s livelihood security. Further improve the public service system and improve the level of people’s livelihood security in the fields of education, medical care and social services. We will further promote the high-quality and balanced development of compulsory education and the integration of urban and rural areas, implement the action of promoting the integration of production and education in vocational education, and accelerate the layout of a new batch of national innovation platforms for integration of production and education. Promote the expansion and sinking of high-quality medical resources, accelerate the construction and layout of comprehensive, specialist and traditional Chinese medicine national medical centers and national and provincial regional medical centers, and promote the expansion and regional balanced layout of high-quality medical resources. Improve the hierarchical and classified social assistance system that is suitable for China’s population development situation and has a fairly high level of security.

  The third is to focus on the shortcomings of population service capacity and improve the "one old and one small" service system. Accelerate the construction of the basic old-age service system, promote the concentration of old-age resources around the community and the masses, and incorporate the allocation and construction of old-age facilities into policy documents such as planning, land use and housing use, so as to promote family harmony and social integration with convenient services nearby. Accelerate the cultivation of the silver-haired economy, achieve the goal of enhancing the well-being of the elderly, expanding domestic consumption, and exploring new economic kinetic energy. We will carry out special actions for inclusive care services, develop community care service facilities and comprehensive care service institutions, and increase the supply of inclusive care services. Further study substantive and systematic support measures, share the cost of childbirth, parenting and education, and help people of childbearing age to better balance their work and life.

Create new glories at a new starting point-Congratulations on the 25th anniversary of Hong Kong’s return to the motherland

July 1, 2022 is the 25th anniversary of Hong Kong’s return to the motherland. Today, 25 years ago, Hong Kong returned to the embrace of the motherland, washed away the century-old humiliation of the nation and completed an important step towards the complete reunification of the motherland. Since then, Hong Kong has been reintegrated into the national governance system and embarked on a broad road of complementary advantages and common development with the mainland of the motherland, opening a new historical era of "one country, two systems", "Hong Kong people ruling Hong Kong" and a high degree of autonomy.

Over the past 25 years, relying on the motherland, facing the world and benefiting from innovation, Hong Kong has been constantly shaping its own modern features. The practice of "one country, two systems" in Hong Kong, like a seedling, has thrived in the storm and produced fruitful results. Especially since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader and the CPC Central Committee have made a series of important expositions and major decision-making arrangements on "one country, two systems" and Hong Kong’s work from a strategic and overall perspective, so as to promote the cause of "one country, two systems" to gain new experience and achieve new development. With the strong support of the central government and the mainland of China, and with the joint efforts of the government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and people from all walks of life in Hong Kong, Hong Kong’s economy has continued to flourish, its position as an international financial, shipping and trade center has been continuously consolidated, the democratic rights and freedoms enjoyed by Hong Kong residents in accordance with the law have been more fully guaranteed, and various undertakings have made great progress, writing a new legend under the Lion Mountain.

When the situation in Hong Kong was once grim, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core assessed the situation, made a major decision to improve the central government’s exercise of comprehensive governance over the Special Administrative Region in accordance with the Constitution and the Basic Law, improve the relevant institutional mechanisms for the implementation of the Constitution and the Basic Law, promote the establishment and improvement of the legal system and implementation mechanism for safeguarding national security in the Special Administrative Region, formulate the Law of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) Special Administrative Region on Safeguarding National Security, improve the electoral system of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, implement the principle of "patriots ruling Hong Kong", and support the Special Administrative Region to improve the oath system for public officials. A series of measures to treat both the symptoms and the root causes have promoted a major turning point in the situation in Hong Kong from chaos to governance. Practice has fully proved that in order to ensure the steady and far-reaching practice of "one country, two systems", we must always adhere to the principle of "patriots ruling Hong Kong". This is related to national sovereignty, security, development interests and the fundamental principle of Hong Kong’s long-term prosperity and stability. Only by "ruling Hong Kong by patriots" can the central government’s overall governance power over the Special Administrative Region be effectively implemented, the constitutional order established by the Constitution and the Basic Law be effectively maintained, various deep-seated problems can be effectively solved, and Hong Kong can achieve long-term stability and make due contributions to the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

Walking through the mud, you know that the avenue is precious; After experiencing wind and rain, I feel the sunshine is more beautiful. The extraordinary course of Hong Kong’s return to the motherland for 25 years fully proves that the implementation of "one country, two systems" is conducive to safeguarding the fundamental interests of the country, Hong Kong and the vast number of Hong Kong compatriots. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader profoundly pointed out: "In the past 25 years, despite many storms and challenges, the practice of’ one country, two systems’ in Hong Kong has achieved universally recognized success." Facing the future, the Central Committee will continue to unswervingly implement the principle of "one country, two systems". With the deepening of practice and the continuous improvement of the institutional system, the superiority of "one country, two systems" will be further demonstrated, and the practice of "one country, two systems" will surely be more stable and go further.

Qian Shan is in the same vein, and all waters are of the same origin. The fate of Hong Kong has always been closely linked with the motherland, and national development has always been the greatest support for Hong Kong’s development. Today’s motherland is highly open and changing with each passing day, which is enough to provide strong impetus for Hong Kong to increase its advantages, expand its space and solve difficult problems with its size and vitality. In particular, the country’s construction of a new development pattern, the promotion of the "Belt and Road", the deepening of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area’s construction, the implementation of the "Tenth Five-Year Plan" and the outline of long-term goals for 2035 have created new major opportunities for Hong Kong’s development. On the new journey, the central government will further improve the policy system to support the complementary and coordinated development of Hong Kong and the Mainland, promote the innovation of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area’s institutional mechanisms, pay attention to the unique role of Hong Kong in building the Belt and Road Initiative, improve policies and measures to facilitate Hong Kong residents’ study, employment, entrepreneurship and life in the Mainland, and improve various mechanisms for in-depth exchanges and cooperation between Hong Kong and the Mainland in various fields. Facts will continue to prove that as long as we adhere to the principle of "one country", make good use of the benefits of "two systems" and find a correct position in the overall situation of national development, Hong Kong will certainly be able to cultivate new advantages, play a new role and achieve new development, so that the development results will truly benefit the vast number of Hong Kong residents.

When the wind is good, it is when you sail, and you are rushing to the future. For Hong Kong, "one country, two systems" is the biggest advantage, and national reform and opening up is the biggest stage. In the process of national reform and opening up in the new era, Hong Kong has a special position and unique advantages and can play an irreplaceable role. This position and role will only be strengthened, not weakened. Nowadays, Hong Kong’s development is back on the right track, with people’s minds stable, determined and secure. "Seeking stability and development" is the mainstream public opinion, and "opening a new chapter for Hong Kong together" has become a strong consensus. At the critical period of governance and prosperity, Hong Kong’s unique advantages such as marketization, internationalization, rule of law, numerous talents, diverse cultures, advanced infrastructure and excellent business environment will be fully brought into play. Hong Kong compatriots are not only fully capable and wise to manage, build and develop Hong Kong well, but also able to continue to show their talents in national development and even on the world stage. On the new journey, the vast number of Hong Kong compatriots will continue to devote themselves to the cause of national reform and opening up with sincere patriotism and the spirit of being the first. Taking advantage of the situation and taking advantage of the situation will certainly promote Hong Kong’s better development in the overall situation of national development.

After 25 years of hurricane and rain, and 25 years of spring and autumn, Hong Kong has once again stood at a new starting point. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed: "The central government’s determination to comprehensively and accurately implement the principle of’ one country, two systems’ has never wavered and will never change." Today’s Hong Kong has a more solid foundation than at any time in the past, which can better safeguard national sovereignty, security and development interests and maintain Hong Kong’s long-term prosperity and stability. At present, our country has entered a new journey of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way and marching towards the goal of the second century. In the grand journey of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, Hong Kong has much to offer and will certainly do. We firmly believe that the vast number of Hong Kong compatriots will carry forward the glorious tradition of patriotism and love for Hong Kong, work hand in hand with the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country, go forward in rain or shine, and constantly create a new situation in the cause of "one country, two systems". Hong Kong will certainly be able to create new glories at a new starting point and add luster to the Chinese dream of realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation!

Chinese Modernization: A New Core Discourse in the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s Ruling Discourse System

Chinese Modernization: A New Core Discourse in the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s Ruling Discourse System

Tang Xiaoqin Fu Jingjing

  At the opening ceremony of the seminar on studying and implementing the spirit of the 20th Party Congress, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized that it is a major theoretical innovation of the 20th Party Congress and the latest major achievement of scientific socialism to put forward and elaborate the Chinese modernization theory in depth. Chinese-style modernization, with its distinctive identity, times and importance, has profoundly influenced the Party’s ruling idea, strategy, mode, ability and goal, and has become the new core discourse in the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s ruling discourse system.

  Chinese-style modernization constructs discourse symbols that break the myth of the West.Modernization has never existed a model of one respect and a universally applicable standard. The myth of "modernization = westernization" stems from the fact that modernization started in the west before the opportunity, and under the background of western centralism and western monopoly discourse hegemony, people gradually misunderstand that modernization is equivalent to westernization. Focusing on the lackluster history and reality after the export of western modernization model from the global perspective, it is obviously a wrong logic to equate modernization simplicity with westernization, which is untenable in theory and harmful in practice. To break this myth and cognitive stereotype, we need to resolutely jump out of the trap of setting western issues and the trap of "western standards" and form a correct understanding at the conceptual, practical and confirmatory levels. At the conceptual level, it is necessary to realize that China should not simply transplant or apply western theories when exploring the road of modernization, but should not only follow the general laws of modernization, but also respect the national conditions and be based on reality. On the practical level, it is necessary to break the attachment system to the West, firmly hold the fate of China’s development and progress in our own hands, and independently promote Chinese modernization. On the confirmation level, the achievements of Chinese-style modernization provide evidence that facts speak louder than words. Chinese-style modernization is a vibrant modernization in which the superiority of the socialist system is confirmed by reality. From "modernization = westernization" to "modernization ≠ Westernization "Only by this inequality can we better understand the symbolic meaning of Chinese modernization, a new vocabulary of the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s ruling discourse system, and deeply understand that it is the only correct way to comprehensively promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese modernization.

  Chinese-style modernization clarifies the discourse connotation with unique characteristics.Modernization is a comprehensive concept endowed with unique meaning, and it is a trinity of material, system and human modernization. China’s modernization is a modernization with a huge population, common prosperity of all people, harmony between material civilization and spiritual civilization, harmonious coexistence between man and nature and peaceful development. These five characteristics are the theoretical generalization and practical requirements for promoting Chinese modernization, which not only fully reveal the "China characteristics" and "scientific connotation" in words, but also profoundly reveal the "essential differences" between Chinese and western modernization in words. From the difference of specific characteristics, the modernization with Chinese style corresponds to the modernization with small size, polarization, material desire expansion, plundering nature and external expansion in the West. From a higher level, Chinese and western modernization is the fundamental difference between socialist road and capitalist road, organic parallel modernization and mechanical series modernization. Taking the feature of promoting common prosperity as an example, western modernization embodies the discourse embarrassment of wealth accumulation and poverty accumulation, while Chinese modernization shows the discourse advantage of always adhering to the people-centered principle. These five characteristics of Chinese modernization integrate the world outlook, values, historical outlook, civilization outlook, democracy outlook and ecological outlook, and with their unique rich meanings, they have changed from the passive state of "few words" and "aphasia" to "voice" in the field of discourse power.The positive and promising state transformation of "Liusheng" has achieved great innovation and transcendence of the world modernization theory.

  Chinese modernization has expanded the discourse space of international exchange and mutual learning.In international communication, discourse confrontation, discourse exchange and discourse blending have long been the norm. Only the exchange of fire and the lack of communication and blending will greatly reduce the discourse space for exchange and mutual learning. Chinese-style modernization provides China’s plan and China’s wisdom for the modernization of the world, especially the modernization of developing countries, provides powerful kinetic energy for global governance reform, and greatly expands the discourse space for joint construction and sharing. In terms of consultation, the great success of Chinese modernization has enhanced the international community’s rational recognition of China Road and China Model, and it has become the general trend to walk out of the old road that the country will dominate with the new path of win-win cooperation, and it has become a general consensus to build a consultation mechanism that respects and understands each other and has something to discuss. In terms of co-construction, China has actively played its role as a participant, builder and contributor to the international system, put forward global development initiatives, global security initiatives and global civilization initiatives, actively advocated building a community of human destiny, and spared no effort to build a world with lasting peace, universal security, common prosperity, openness, tolerance and beauty. In terms of sharing, Chinese-style modernization not only develops itself and benefits the world, but also constantly improves the level of opening up to the outside world. Countries are welcome to take the "express train" and "free ride" of China’s economic development, so as to expand the development space of Chinese-style modernization and simultaneously expand the discourse space of international exchange and mutual learning. Chinese-style modernization shows that any country or nation should embark on a suitable modernization road according to its own historical and cultural conditions.Chinese-style modernization sets a good example for developing countries to move towards modernization independently. It empowers global governance, the United States and the United States, and the cause of world modernization in their efforts to adjust their development demands, structure and pattern. The road is not alone, and it can be predicted that the human significance and world significance of Chinese modernization will become increasingly prominent.

  Chinese-style modernization has established the discourse self-confidence to March towards the future with head held high.First of all, the discourse confidence of Chinese modernization comes from civilization consciousness and historical confidence. Chinese-style modernization creates a new form of human civilization, which embodies an internal and high level of civilization consciousness. Since modern times, with the bankruptcy of all kinds of national salvation plans made by western countries, the important task of exploring China’s modernization road has historically fallen on the Communist Party of China (CPC). China’s modernization exploration has gone through different historical periods and achieved great achievements that have attracted worldwide attention. The historical relay movement of modernization has followed one after another, and the deep historical initiative has brought profound historical self-confidence. Secondly, the discourse confidence of Chinese modernization comes from the historic achievements and changes made since the 18th CPC National Congress. Chinese-style modernization has achieved two miracles of rapid economic development and long-term social stability, which not only laid a better realistic foundation for Chinese-style modernization, but also planted a strong ambition for Chinese-style modernization discourse. Thirdly, the discourse confidence of Chinese modernization comes from the strong leadership of the party and the guidance of scientific theory. The party’s leadership is aimed at Chinese-style modernization, which embodies the majestic power of Chinese-style modernization and inspires the strong power of modernization. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader is the leader, the star and the backbone of the great changes in the new era and ten years. Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the new era is the guiding ideology of our party and the action guide to promote Chinese modernization. In addition, the discourse self-confidence of Chinese modernization also comes from the institutional advantages and self-confidence demonstrated by China in the international comparison of calmly coping with major risk challenges and public crises.

  With the successful practice of Chinese-style modernization, it is timely to focus on building the theoretical framework and discourse system of Chinese-style modernization, which greatly enriches and develops the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s ruling discourse system in vocabulary and connotation. Chinese-style modernization, as the ruling idea and practical requirement of the Party, aims at leading the people to realize socialist modernization and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Aim high, and act in the present. Effectively strengthen the soft power construction of discourse power, and show the world a vivid picture of "China in discourse" from the perspective of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Chinese-style modernization exploration will continue to make new and greater contributions to the development of world modernization and human civilization.
