Cadres and masses in Yueyang County enthusiastically discuss "curing bad habits and building new winds"

"With the guidance of party members and cadres, the masses will no longer have any worries about obstructing emotions and obstructing faces," Yang Sheng, secretary of the party committee of Xinqiang Town, said of curing bad habits and building new winds, full of confidence.

Set up a "benchmark" to provide a "good model"

"Because I am a party member, I want to take the lead...", on June 2, when Li Junliang, the 98-year-old village director of Qingshui Village in Xinqiang Town, Yueyang County, passed away, he made a loud and clear sentence that resolved the doubts of relatives and friends, and did not put a firecracker, "As a village cadre and party member, if I do not take the lead in demonstrating, how will I do the work of others in the future?" "Father Li's white affair has changed the traditional habit of doing things, not firing cannons, taking a good start in the whole village, setting a benchmark for us, and we will follow suit in the future." Next door neighbor Wei Meilian said.

"Relatives sit together and reminisce about their mother's past, and I think this is the best way to mourn my mother." On June 17, Xu Guohu, director of the Agricultural Development Center of the Yueyang County Finance Bureau, persuaded relatives and friends who came to the door to mourn not to set off fireworks and firecrackers during the funeral for his 83-year-old mother.

"Golden Father has nine children, the conditions are quite good, the old sixth Xu finished the soldiers, is a big boss, the funeral must be decent and beautiful!" After the death of Golden Daddy, nearby villagers talked about it. "I can't pretend to be confused!" On May 27, Xu Wanbing, general manager of Yueyang Liujiu Logistics Company, persuaded his brother and sister during the funeral of his 77-year-old father in front of liduan village in Maotian Town, "As foreign country friends, we should respond positively, take the lead in implementing and simply handle funerals", originally planning to spend 200,000 to 300,000 yuan to handle funerals for his father's lively and lively funeral, but it only cost 40,000 yuan.

In recent days, a "proposal to break old rules and bad habits and build a new style of civilization" has received a warm response from the deputies to the people's congresses and cppcc committee members of counties, counties, and townships, and has taken the lead in carrying out activities such as "signing pledges on the spot," "aligning the deputies and members with the organs," and "looking up to me." Zhou Heping, a deputy to the Zhongzhou Township People's Congress, recently performed a funeral for his mother and fulfilled this promise with practical actions. Through the solemn commitment of 1,277 county and township people's congress deputies and 214 county and township CPPCC members, the county has joined hands to bring 1,500 families and nearly 20,000 people to participate in the rectification action.

"The masses look at party members, and party members look at cadres. Unhealthy human sentiments and bad habits of marriage and funeral are often infiltrated from top to bottom, and in order to get rid of bad habits and new trends, we must start with party members and cadres and firmly grasp this key minority. Long Luoyang, member of the Standing Committee of the County Discipline Inspection Commission, introduced that in order to give play to the exemplary and leading role of party members and cadres, the regulations on the handling of weddings and funerals of party members and cadres have been refined, and the system of "reporting, publicity, and supervision" has been strictly implemented, and all party members and cadres in the county, public employees, and villagers from Yueyang County have signed a letter of commitment.

Elect "stewards" and people to "be light"

"According to the investigation, a wedding, the man needs to give the woman a bride price of 80,000 to 100,000 yuan, plus new house decoration, banquets and other expenses, a total of about 150,000 yuan", on June 14, Wan Xiaofeng and 10 other township people's congress deputies jointly submitted a bill to the second session of the Zhongzhou Township People's Congress, pointing out the local marriage and funeral customs, and the "share of money" made the masses deeply tired.

"In the past, when doing white things, there was often a big banquet, and the people who came to mourn were issued whole boxes of cigarettes, and the grade of the cigarettes was a metaphor for the face of the principal family." Speaking of this, the villagers are particularly touched.

"In the past, the son married the daughter-in-law, and the father and mother shed their skin. After the establishment of the Red and White Council, the marriage affairs were held festively and frugally, the human face was all there, and the economic burden was lighter..." Now in the port village of Gongtian Town, when the Red and White Council is mentioned, the villagers all praise it.

"The handling of red and white affairs in rural areas is related to thousands of households, and if we manage this matter well, it is equivalent to lightening the burden on the masses." Ren Weiping, secretary of the party committee of Gongtian Town, said. In May 2016, Port Village took the lead in setting up a red and white council in the county, and elected "five old people" such as old party members, old cadres, old teachers, old people's congress deputies, and old CPPCC members into the council, acted as "housekeepers" of villagers, and used village rules and regulations to guide the masses to self-management.

"In the past, when talking about pomp and circumstance, chickens, fish, and elbows were all kinds of things, and it was a waste of money, not to mention, and it also made everyone exhausted. Now the banquet has limited the size and controlled the standard, although it is light, but everyone eats very well. Li Binglong, secretary of the general branch of the party in Sanjiang Village, Zhongzhou Township, has been a village cadre for more than ten years, and he has participated in many banquets, and his feelings are particularly deep, and now he feels much more relaxed.

Eliminate "bad habits" and cultivate "new trends"

"It is good to use this kind of electronic cannon in red and white things, that is, environmental protection and save money..." li Dashu, general secretary of the Qingshui village branch, said. The village purchased three electronic cannons worth more than 13,000 yuan, provided services for the villagers free of charge, and purchased more than 6,000 yuan of porcelain bowls and chopsticks for the villagers to use. There is no longer the pungent smell of sulfur, the scum of firecrackers, the deafening sound of firecrackers and the white pollution all over the ground.

"At first, they didn't understand. After a while, the villagers responded well. There are those who do not honor their parents and admit their mistakes on the stage, and the relationship between husband and wife is not good, and the public guarantees that the atmosphere in the village is much better than before." Talking about the volunteer family style propaganda group, Xu Yingming, who retired from the Zhang Guying town government at home, had endless words. He introduced that since its establishment last year, the volunteer propaganda group has carried out more than 20 lectures in nearly 10 villages, and more than 1,700 people have spontaneously listened to lectures.

"Civilized rural style focuses on practice and cultivation." On the basis of changing customs and customs, Yueyang County has opened a "moral lecture hall," set up a "family style tour propaganda group," carried out activities such as "star peasant households" and "the most beautiful families," integrated Zhang Guying's filial piety and friends' family style into it, and worked hard to create the cultural characteristics of filial piety and honesty in the whole county, and through long-term propaganda and demonstration of moral models, let the villagers know their honor and shame and advocate a new style of civilization.
