In the early morning of October 29, Ruili City held a press conference to introduce the recent local COVID-19 response and handling work. According to reports, since October 1, Ruili City has detected a total of 19 cases of local new coronavirus infection, and the recent positive detection rate of overseas returnees has continued to be more than 20%. The meeting said that it will comprehensively strengthen border control and strictly control the passage from Switzerland, and at the same time, effectively strengthen the social and people's livelihood security, conscientiously implement the policy of benefiting farmers and benefiting enterprises, and make overall plans to ensure the production and life of the masses.
Within a year, there have been 4 epidemics and 3 lockdowns, and there are still sporadic sporadic sporadic distributions, still in the critical period of epidemic prevention and control, the severe situation of Ruili is indeed worrying. Everyone who has experienced the epidemic has experienced that a place that has been under lockdown for a long time will inevitably have a huge impact on normal production and life. The problem of eating for community residents, the problem of children's schooling, the difficulty of operating small and medium-sized enterprises, etc., none of which is easy, which problem needs to be solved urgently.
Ruili City actively responds to public opinion, actively responds to social concerns, and strives to solve the difficulties of people's livelihood under the situation of epidemic prevention and control, which embodies the concept of people's livelihood first, which is worthy of recognition. This also shows that the government must be able to hear those "silent voices", regard the people's difficulties as a matter of great importance, take the initiative to do it as soon as possible, do it well, and do it well, and do it in place.
For some time, some netizens have reflected on the Internet that the local people have difficulties in life, mainly involving the resumption of school, the resumption of work and production, the control policy of leaving Switzerland, and the centralized isolation management. On October 28, Dai Rongli, who had served as vice mayor of Ruili, published an article entitled "Ruili Needs the Care of the Motherland", which aroused social concern. The article calls on the whole society to pay more attention to Ruili, hoping that the local government will "moderately open up some business premises" and gradually resume production and trade.
The attention of netizens is not an obstacle to the government's administration according to law, but a powerful boost. The people have a call, and the government has a response, so that it is a benign interaction, so that we can gather strength and overcome the difficulties of the times.
At a press conference on October 29, Yin Zhongde, member of the Standing Committee of the Ruili Municipal Party Committee and executive vice mayor of the Municipal People's Government, said at the press conference: Ruili City borders Myanmar on the northwest, southwest and southeast sides, border security and epidemic prevention and control are facing great pressure, and the epidemic prevention and control buffer zone is demarcated in the range of 50 meters to 200 meters from the border line, and the residents in the buffer zone will be temporarily relocated and resettled.

On the one hand, in the face of the severe epidemic prevention and control situation, government information must be open, transparent and timely, and it is necessary to adopt new media means to convey authoritative information in a timely manner, so that the public can understand the real situation and form more consensus. On the other hand, it is necessary to implement various epidemic prevention measures, coordinate epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development, and take practical measures in view of the actual difficulties of specific groups.
Previously, at the special work conference on the social situation and public opinion of Ruili City on October 27, Mao Xiao, secretary of the Ruili Municipal Party Committee, clearly demanded that all levels and departments should carefully listen to the reasonable demands, opinions and criticisms of the masses, take the people's livelihood protection work as an important task of epidemic prevention and control, attach great importance to the reasonable demands of the masses, and go all out to help solve the difficulties of people's livelihood.
One detail is that the meeting pointed out that "the demands of the majority of the masses are objective and reasonable". This undoubtedly provides a basis for the next social and people's livelihood security.
We must realize that epidemic prevention and control and social and people's livelihood are not antagonistic, but integrated. While strictly and tightly doing a good job in epidemic prevention and control, we should also make every effort to do a good job in ensuring the social and people's livelihood. If the people's livelihood problem is solved, the epidemic prevention work will gain a strong impetus.
At present, the situation of the epidemic outside the country is still very severe, and sporadic epidemics have also appeared in China, which requires governments at all levels and party members and cadres to take the initiative, dare to take responsibility, take prevention and control as the key, take the people's livelihood as the foundation, and orderly promote the recovery of production and life under the premise of ensuring the safety of epidemic prevention and control. At the same time, we must also resolutely put an end to formalism and bureaucracy and earnestly do good and practical things for the masses in a good style.
In addition, border areas often have to bear the multiple pressures of "war situation, police situation, and epidemic situation". On September 29, Ruili City's new crown pneumonia epidemic prevention index pointed out that it is facing increasing difficulties in foreign defense: "Since the announcement of the return of stranded people in northern Myanmar was issued across the country, a large number of overseas surrendered personnel chose to enter Ruili, and there are still tens of thousands of people waiting to enter. At present, the double superposition of imported cases and local cases, Ruili medical treatment resources are difficult to meet the actual needs. "Previously, the visibility of such epidemic calls has not been high enough, so the epidemic situation in border areas such as Ruili has not received effective attention."
Therefore, higher-level departments and all sectors of society may also wish to pay more attention to the epidemic situation of Ruili and provide necessary personnel and financial support at a critical moment. National prevention and control is a chess game, and we must not ignore these relatively hidden but constantly under high pressure and in a highly tense state at all times, and they also need everyone's concern and help.
