"Become his body and the world, and rule the world." A very important reason why our party has gone through thousands of trials and tribulations and is full of vigor and vitality is that it has always insisted that the party should manage the party and administer the party in an all-round and strict manner. On January 18, General Secretary Xi Jinping delivered an important speech at the Sixth Plenary Session of the Nineteenth Central Discipline Inspection Commission, profoundly summarizing the successful practice of the party's self-revolution in the new era, profoundly expounding the historic and pioneering achievements and all-round deep-seated impact of comprehensively and strictly administering the party, and making strategic arrangements for unremittingly advancing the comprehensive and strict management of the party to in-depth and welcoming the victory of the party's 20th National Congress. General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech is lofty in intention, profound in thought, rich in connotation, strong in politics, guidance and pertinence, and is the basic guideline for promoting the new great project of party building in the new era and the action guide for the high-quality development of discipline inspection and supervision work.
This year is the tenth year since the Eighteenth National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and it has been a sword in ten years. In the face of the increasingly severe and complex internal and external situation of the "four major tests" and the more acute and prominent "four dangers", the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core has incorporated the comprehensive and strict management of the party into the "four comprehensive" strategic layout, written "the party, the government, the military and the people, the east, the west, the south, and the north, the party is the leader of everything" into the party constitution, written "the leadership of the Communist Party of China is the most essential feature of socialism with Chinese characteristics" into the constitution, deepened the reform of the party and state institutions, and implemented the party's comprehensive leadership in all aspects of the entire process of governing the country Grasp party building in the spirit of reform and innovation, strengthen the political responsibility of managing the party and administering the party, persist in being strict in ideology, strict in supervision, strict in enforcing discipline, strict in administering officials, strict in work style, and strict in fighting corruption; and constantly improve the party's ability to set the direction, seek the overall situation, set policies, and promote reform; with unprecedented courage and determination, we should push forward the building of a sound party style and a clean and honest administration and the anti-corruption struggle, put a stop to some unhealthy tendencies and evil tendencies that have not been stopped for many years, resolve many stubborn and chronic diseases that have not been resolved for a long time, and eliminate the serious hidden dangers existing within the party, the state, and the army. The lax and soft situation of managing the party and administering the party has been fundamentally reversed, a successful path of relying on the party's self-revolution to jump out of the historical cycle rate has been explored, and historical and pioneering achievements have been made in comprehensively and strictly administering the party, which has produced all-round and deep-seated impact.
The courage to carry out self-revolution is a conspicuous sign that distinguishes our party from other political parties, and it is the secret of the party's success in jumping out of the historical cycle of chaos and rise and fall, and becoming more vigorous after a hundred years of vicissitudes. Over the past one hundred years, outside the party, by developing people's democracy and accepting supervision by the people, internally relying on comprehensively and strictly administering the party and promoting self-revolution, having the courage to uphold the truth and correct mistakes, and having the courage to turn the blade inward and scrape the bones to cure poison, thus ensuring the party's long-term prosperity and continuous development and growth. Since the Eighteenth National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedly talked about the problem of jumping out of the historical cycle rate, which is a major issue related to the great cause of the party and the country. With such a long history, such a large scale, and such a long period of ruling power, how can we jump out of the historical cycle rate of the rise and fall of chaos? Our party has always unremittingly explored ways to solve problems. Comrade Mao Zedong gave the first answer in the cave dwellings in Yan'an, that is, "Only by letting the people supervise the government can the government dare not slacken off." General Secretary Xi Jinping profoundly pointed out at the second plenary session of the Sixth Plenary Session of the Nineteenth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China: "After a century of struggle, especially the new practice since the Eighteenth National Congress of the Party, our Party has given a second answer, which is self-revolution. The third historical resolution adopted by the Sixth Plenary Session of the Nineteenth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China condensed "persisting in self-revolution" into one of the ten historical experiences of the party's century-long struggle. Our party does not have any special interests of its own, and this is the source of our party's courage and confidence in daring to carry out self-revolution. It is precisely because of selflessness that our party can constantly examine itself and think about its own mistakes in the spirit of thorough materialism, can it get rid of the "hunting" and corruption of all interest groups, powerful groups, and privileged strata, and open a knife to those in the party who are bound up by these groups, groups, and strata. The greatness of our party does not lie in not making mistakes, but in never hiding illness and avoiding medical treatment, daring to face problems head-on, and daring to carry out self-revolution. Of the so many ruling parties in the world, how many dare to fight corruption on a large scale, with great intensity, and unremittingly like our party? Some people tout the Western multi-party rotation in power and the "three powers" of the system, and do not believe that our party can turn the blade inward and cut itself up the rotten meat. The practice of the Communist Party of China's courage in self-revolution gave them a resounding and powerful answer. Recently, the broadcast of the TV special film "Zero Tolerance" has aroused heated discussion in society, reflecting the people's high recognition of the effectiveness of anti-corruption efforts. According to a survey by the National Bureau of Statistics, 95.8% of the masses in 2020 are full of confidence in comprehensively and strictly administering the party and curbing corruption, an increase of 16.5 percentage points over the survey in 2012 before the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. This is a vivid epitome of our party's winning the hearts and minds of the party and the people with the actual results of comprehensively and strictly administering the party in the new era.
Administering the party in an all-round and strict manner is the great practice of the party's self-revolution in the new era, and has opened up a new realm of self-revolution in the century-old party. We must persist in taking the party's political building as the guide and adhere to the fundamental political orientation of self-revolution; we must persist in taking ideological construction as the party's basic construction and tempering the sharp ideological weapon of self-revolution; we must resolutely implement the spirit of the eight provisions of the central authorities, use strict discipline to rectify the work style, and enrich the effective ways of self-revolution; we must persist in fighting corruption and punishing evil with a thunderous momentum, and fight a tough and protracted battle of self-revolution; we must persist in enhancing the political functions and cohesion of party organizations, and forge a contingent of cadres who dare to be good at struggle and dare to carry out self-revolution We must persist in building a system of self-purification, self-improvement, self-innovation, and self-improvement, and provide institutional guarantees for promoting the great self-revolution. These "six musts" are a profound summary of the party's successful practice of self-revolution in the new era and the mystery of opening up a new realm of self-revolution in the century-old party.
Since the Eighteenth National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core has inherited and developed the Marxist theory of party building, summed up and applied the party's historical experience in the past century, deeply promoted the innovation in practice, theory and system of managing the party and governing the party, and reached a new height in the understanding of the regularity of what kind of long-term ruling Marxist political party to build and how to build a long-term ruling Marxist political party. In his important speech at the plenary session, General Secretary Xi Jinping clearly summarized the "nine insistences", that is, to adhere to the centralized and unified leadership of the party Central Committee, to insist that the party should manage the party and administer the party in an all-round and strict manner, to persist in taking the party's political construction as the command, to adhere to the strict main tone without wavering, to carry forward the spirit of nails to strengthen the construction of work style, to persist in punishing corruption with a zero-tolerance attitude, to persist in correcting all corruption and unhealthy trends that harm the interests of the masses, to persist in grasping the "key minority" above the rate, and to persist in improving the supervision system of the party and the state. Form a comprehensive coverage, normal long-term supervision synergy. These "nine adherences" further deepen the understanding of the regularity of building a long-term ruling Marxist political party, are a major achievement of theoretical innovation, and are an important part of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics in the New Era.
This year is an important year for entering the new journey of comprehensively building a modern socialist country and marching toward the second centenary goal, and our party will convene the Twentieth National Congress, which is a major event in the political life of the party and the state, a milestone of extraordinary significance, and even more the starting point for a new struggle. Embarking on a new road to catch up with the examination and comprehensively and strictly administering the party's responsibility and mission is more arduous than ever. We must soberly realize that the contest between corruption and anti-corruption is still raging and has taken on some new stage characteristics; there is still a long way to go to prevent all kinds of interest groups from forming a posture and "hunting" and corroding; there is still a long way to go to effectively deal with the invisible mutation of corrupt means and to renovate and upgrade; there is still a long way to go to thoroughly eradicate the soil that breeds corruption and realize the liquidation of the Haiyan River; and there is still a long way to go in cleaning up systemic corruption and defusing hidden risks.
We must keep a sober mind, always blow the trumpet, keep firmly in mind that anti-corruption is always on the road, carry forward the spirit of historical initiative, unswervingly adhere to the main tone of strictness, and unremittingly push forward the comprehensive and strict management of the party in depth. It is necessary to consolidate and expand the achievements of party history study and education, more firmly and consciously keep in mind the original mission, and create a new situation of development. Deeply study and implement the spirit of the Sixth Plenary Session of the Nineteenth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, persistently promote the study, education, and propaganda of party history, and guide the whole party to strengthen its historical self-confidence and achieve good results on the new road of catching up with the examination. It is necessary to strengthen political supervision and ensure the complete, accurate, and comprehensive implementation of the new development concept. It is necessary to grasp the new development stage, implement the new development concept, build a new development pattern, promote high-quality development, guide and urge party members and cadres to truly understand the major policies of the party Central Committee, always and everywhere to the Party Central Committee, implement the decision-making and deployment of the Party Central Committee in a down-to-earth manner, and do not discount or make superficial remarks. It is necessary to maintain the political determination to fight corruption and constantly achieve the strategic goal of not daring to be corrupt, not being able to be corrupt, and not wanting to be corrupt. Leading cadres, especially senior cadres, should take the lead in implementing the opinions on strengthening the building of a culture of honesty and honesty in the new era, consolidate their roots and cultivate their roots ideologically, enhance their awareness of party spirit, and enhance their ability to resist corruption and guard against degeneration. It is necessary to strengthen the embankments stipulated by the eight central authorities and persevere in correcting the "four winds" tree and new winds. Starting with leading cadres, especially principal leading cadres, we should establish a correct outlook on political achievements, respect objective reality and the needs of the masses, strengthen systematic thinking and scientific planning, do more practical and good things for the benefit of the people, and put an end to pretending, making fancy racks, and blindly paving the way. Strengthen supervision over the implementation of the Party Central Committee's policies to benefit the people and enrich the people. It is necessary to strengthen the education, management, and supervision of young cadres, and educate and guide young cadres to become loyal and reliable cadres of the party and the people. Strengthen education management and supervision in a strict and down-to-earth manner, guide young cadres to be loyal and honest to the party, strengthen their ideals and convictions, keep firmly in mind their original mission, correctly treat power, always respect themselves and introspect themselves, strictly abide by discipline and laws and rules, and buckle the "first button" of honesty and honesty in government. It is necessary to improve the system of supervising power and the system of enforcing discipline and law enforcement, so that all kinds of supervision will be more standardized, more effective, and more effective. Party committees (leading party groups) at all levels should fulfill the main responsibility of inner-party supervision and give prominence to strengthening supervision over the "key minority," especially the "number one" and leading bodies. Discipline inspection and supervision organs should give play to the role of special supervisory organs, assist party committees in comprehensively and strictly administering the party, promote the integration and coordination of supervision within the party and other types of supervision, and explore effective ways to deepen coordination.
Drumming urges the steady boat, and strives to set sail to a new journey. Party organizations at all levels and the broad masses of party members and cadres should thoroughly study and implement the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech, conscientiously implement the deployment of the sixth plenary session of the Central Discipline Inspection Commission, enhance the "four consciousnesses", strengthen the "four self-confidences", and achieve "two safeguards", and with the firm persistence of always being on the road, continue to fight the protracted battle of improving the party's work style and building a clean and honest government and fighting a protracted battle against corruption, make due contributions to maintaining a stable and healthy economic environment, a social environment of national peace and security, and a clean and healthy political environment, and greet the victory of the party's twentieth national congress with outstanding achievements.
