Studying and following Uncle Ho, Anh Son district promotes exemplary behavior of cadres and party members

"Locomotive" Phuc Son commune

Village 2, Phuc Son Commune (Anh Son) has more than 200 households, with nearly 800 people. This is a village with many pioneering activities in the locality, such as "providing electricity to light up the countryside roads"; organizing and mobilizing 33 households to exchange agricultural land, creating a land area of ​​more than 4,000 m2 to build a cultural house, sports, entertainment and recreation area for people after merging villages; mobilizing people to close 100% of concrete roads.

This is also the village with the highest income in the commune, reaching an average of 55 million VND/person/year. People are proactive in changing the crop structure, especially introducing local red sweet potato varieties to grow on more than 15 hectares for high income and participating in masonry and painting groups during the off-season...

According to comrade Nguyen Cong Binh - Secretary of the Party Committee of Phuc Son commune, the results achieved by village 2 are due to the role of comrade Dang Dinh Thuyet - Secretary of the Party Cell and Head of village 2. Comrade Thuyet has done "skillful mass mobilization" by setting an example himself to gather and rally solidarity within the political system and the people to join hands and build the village.

To “bring electricity to light up the countryside roads”, comrade Dang Dinh Thuyet himself used 30 million VND of his own money to advance the construction of the electric lighting lines. When the people saw the effectiveness, they agreed to contribute money and maintain it daily. Or to promote the investment in the inter-village road through the area, comrade Thuyet advanced 150 million VND from his family to do it in advance.

To build a new cultural house after the village merger, comrade Thuyet's family also supported 15 million VND, along with mobilizing people's strength, calling on children far from home to contribute more than 1 billion VND.

Currently, comrade Thuyet is continuing to work with the Party cell and the village management board to propagate and mobilize people to donate land and exchange agricultural land to turn the Ao Sen area into an ecological lotus growing area, creating a rural landscape space, serving the people's lives, and combining tourism development. To kick off this idea, in early 2024, he initiated the organization of the first Ao Sen Fish Trap Festival, attracting a large number of people from inside and outside the locality to participate.

Also demonstrating the role of a leader and role model, in Tan Cat village, Binh Son commune, comrade Phan Van Hong - Secretary of Tan Cat Party Cell has been concerned with innovating methods and ways of leadership and direction, bringing the village to meet new rural standards. The Party Cell has been classified as having completed its tasks excellently for 3 consecutive years. To have resources to build new rural areas, Secretary of Party Cell Phan Van Hong sent a letter calling on children far from home, philanthropists and businesses to support resources, combining appeals in many ways. Within the village, Secretary Hong has promoted and called on cadres, party members and people to "be self-reliant", not to wait or rely on others.

Comrade Hoang Anh Tuan - Secretary of the Party Committee of Binh Son commune said: Comrade Phan Van Hong is a person who "practices what he preaches". For civil works, from traffic roads, to welcome gates, cultural house grounds, to purchasing cultural and sports facilities in the village; Comrade Hong's family was the pioneer in paying in advance and propagandizing and mobilizing relatives to support.

For example, to build a welcome gate with a total value of 185 million VND, comrade Hong's family contributed 3 million VND and mobilized relatives in the clan to contribute an additional 7 million VND. Currently, Tan Cat village is continuing to mobilize people to support digging wells for domestic water and building sanitary facilities in the cultural house, with an estimated budget of about 50 million VND; now 10 million VND has been mobilized, of which the family of the village party secretary contributed 2 million VND.

According to Head of the Propaganda Department of Anh Son District Party Committee Ngo Dinh Hung, through the implementation of Conclusion No. 01, dated May 18, 2021 of the Politburo (13th tenure) on continuing to implement Directive No. 05 of the Politburo (12th tenure) "On promoting the study and following of Ho Chi Minh's ideology, morality and lifestyle" associated with studying annual topics, in Anh Son district, many cadres and party members have appeared who are conscious of setting an example in performing their assigned duties and tasks, especially the leaders in the political system in villages and hamlets.

Thereby, contributing to promoting the new rural construction movement, especially the "Green, clean, beautiful, bright, friendly" movement launched by the district, which has spread widely and positively impacted the rural landscape, contributing to improving people's lives and sustainably reducing poverty when the whole district has only 4.07% of poor households.

Change in working methods and styles

Along with creating a great change with many positive factors in the block, hamlet, village and commune; the implementation of Conclusion No. 01 of the Politburo in Anh Son district was associated with the implementation of resolutions on Party building and regulations on setting examples by Party committees at all levels, creating many changes in awareness and responsibility among cadres and civil servants, especially leaders at all levels in terms of working methods, being close to work and people, and being more responsible to the people.

Comrade Nguyen Huu Sang - Member of the Provincial Party Committee, Secretary of the District Party Committee, Chairman of the People's Council of Anh Son District said: The policies and plans set out by the Party Committee are closely followed to direct, attach responsibility to the leaders, strengthen inspection and supervision. Periodically every month and quarter, in addition to the working program of the Standing Committee, the Standing Committee of the District Party Committee for each locality, unit, and sector, each individual comrade in the Standing Committee of the District Party Committee also has his/her own working program.

Through this activity, each leader stays close to the grassroots, close to the people, understands the people, understands the grassroots to give effective direction. In addition, Anh Son District Party Committee also shows its responsibility towards the organization and the people by resolutely transferring and replacing cadres and civil servants with limited awareness, responsibility, capacity or showing signs of disunity and strictly handling violating cadres.

Also according to the discussion of the Secretary of the Anh Son District Party Committee: The team of cadres and civil servants from the district to the grassroots level are more conscious, responsible, concerned, and attentive to resolving citizens' petitions and problems, difficulties, and concerns among the people. The heads of the Party Committees and authorities from the district to the grassroots level implement the regime of regular citizen reception and increase dialogue with the people to resolve difficulties, creating a common "voice" in solving problems.

There is still a situation where officials and civil servants are not close to the people, do not listen to the people, and are not truly responsible and concerned about resolving the people's difficulties and concerns.

In addition to the general change in awareness and responsibility in the work of cadres and party members, contributing to solving difficulties and frustrations among the people, correcting negative manifestations and harassment of cadres, civil servants and public employees in the district, Secretary of the Anh Son District Party Committee also frankly said: There is still a situation where cadres and civil servants are not close to the people, do not listen to the people and are not truly responsible and concerned to solve the difficulties and frustrations of the people.

The leadership capacity and fighting strength of grassroots Party organizations have improved compared to before, but are not really even; the rate of change and overcoming of limitations and shortcomings after inspections and audits of some units is still slow.

"These are issues that the Standing Committee of Anh Son District Party Committee clearly recognizes and continues to have solutions and measures to continue to overcome in the coming time" - Secretary of the District Party Committee Nguyen Huu Sang emphasized.
