(Baonghean) - By April 18, Quy Hop district had completed the review of 63 grassroots party organizations (including 21 commune and town party committees, 8 party committees of agencies, enterprises, armed forces, 34 party cells of agencies and enterprises); 432 party cells directly under the party committee (small party cells). The review was not conducted in a general or evasive manner, but had specific "addresses". Cadres and party members frankly pointed out shortcomings and actively accepted responsibility.

Once at the top, you can't stay out.

Chau Quang Commune Party Committee has a relatively large scale in the mountainous area with 26 rural Party cells, 4 school Party cells, 1 commune health party cell, with a total of 580 Party members. Before conducting the review, many leading Party members mainly only identified the manifestations in their personal capacity. However, in the review conference, comments pointed out the responsibilities of each position associated with the assigned responsibilities. Specifically, in Hoa Thanh hamlet, people did not achieve the winter crop target in terms of area, and Hamlet Chief Cao Xuan Ly had to take responsibility for the lack of decisive direction and management.

In the activities of the Hoa Thanh hamlet Party cell, the content of the activities is still poor, some party members are not serious in participating in the activities, some party members have lost their will to strive, asking to leave the Party, comrade Tran Xuan Si - Party cell secretary must accept responsibility for the weaknesses in ideological education work, in the organization of party cell activities. In Dong Huong hamlet, there is also a situation where people participate in gambling for money, Party cell secretary Cam Ba Nam must take responsibility for the infrequent and ineffective propaganda to prevent and combat social evils.

Comrade Hun Vi Thay - Secretary of Chau Quang Commune Party Committee said that the review to clarify the responsibilities of leaders was strictly organized right from the grassroots level. Specifically, Comrade Tran Van Tuan - Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee, Chairman of the Commune People's Committee was pointed out the following shortcomings: Not allocating appropriate funds to build facilities, so the construction of a school that meets national standards at level 2 is still slow; Not regularly directly inspecting fields to direct agricultural economy; Letting garbage dumping in the Yen Luong bridge area last for a long time without being handled. Comrade Hun Vi Thay - Secretary of the Party Committee was pointed out the responsibility for the limitations in leadership and direction of rural party cells, and the direction of party development in business units in the area has not yielded results.

At the Pu Huong Nature Reserve Management Board Party Cell, Party Cell Secretary Duong Ngoc Hung made a serious self-criticism, accepting responsibility for the fact that in 2016, in the Party Cell, there were Party members who participated in gambling for money and were discovered and handled. At the review conference, the Party Cell Secretary was pointed out for his limited awareness and lack of responsibility in thoroughly instilling ideology and educating about ethics and lifestyle, which led to the Party members not fully understanding and allowing violations of prohibitions against Party members to occur. Previously, the Party Cell had reported to the higher Party Committee, coordinated the implementation of the expulsion of Party members, dismissal from office and job transfer of Party members who violated.

No avoidance, no fear of collision

Minh Hop is a commune known as having many “billionaire farmers” with nearly 1,300 hectares of commercial oranges and tangerines of high economic value. On June 8, 2015, Minh Hop commune received the Certificate of recognition for meeting new rural standards, however, up to now, the progress of completing and improving some new rural criteria is still slow. Comrade Pham Thi Nghi - Secretary of the Commune Party Committee said that the commune does not use the excuse of having a strong movement and a high standard of living to avoid review, criticism and self-criticism.

Not only that, but also conducted a serious and frank review to clearly see why the implementation of some new rural criteria has been delayed. Among the 21 hamlets of Minh Hop commune, Minh Quang hamlet has low income, people mainly grow rice, low economic value, and no breakthrough direction. At the review of Minh Quang hamlet Party Cell, Party Cell Secretary Truong Xuan Toan received criticisms about the limitations in directing changes in production thinking and slow application of highly effective economic models.

In Minh Hop commune, the situation of having a third child still occurs, comrade Dinh Thi Kim Chau - Vice Chairman of the Commune People's Committee must accept responsibility for not completing well the direction of implementing the population policy. The target of the Minh Hop Commune Party Congress for the 2015 - 2020 term set out to admit 10 party members each year, but in 2015 and 2016, only an average of 7 new party members were admitted each year. Comrade Pham Xuan Minh - Standing Deputy Secretary of the Commune Party Committee accepted responsibility for not having good solutions in the work of party development. The implementation of granting and exchanging land use right certificates in Minh Hop is still slow, the responsibility belongs to comrade Nguyen Van Dung - Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee, Chairman of the Commune People's Committee... Similarly, all the shortcomings and limitations are brought up for serious and specific review.

Chau Hong Commune is located in the highlands of Quy Hop District, with many mineral resources. There are currently 15 enterprises exploiting and processing white stone and smelting tin ore in the area. The existing problems in mineral exploitation management and environmental protection are always of concern. Along with that, among the cadres and party members, there are some manifestations of lack of exemplary behavior and activities. At the conference to review the collective and the standing members of the Party Committee, the members of the Standing Committee all identified at least 8 shortcomings or more.

Comrade Kim Van Huong - Secretary of the Commune Party Committee received 10 comments. Among them were comments on correcting working style and lifestyle such as: It is necessary to limit the expression of impatience in managing work; limit drinking alcohol outside of working hours. Comrade Kim Van Huong confided: "The comments were very sincere and constructive, so I admit that 9/27 contents show signs of degradation, "self-evolution", "self-transformation", to correct and overcome".

Comrade Luong Van Long - Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee, Chairman of the Commune People's Committee was determined to be responsible for allowing Trung Tin Company and Lang Son Mineral Joint Stock Company to exploit mines but still not reclaim the land; The direction of economic development, intensive farming to increase productivity, and development of crops and livestock to help people in Muong and Cong villages escape poverty is still weak.

Comrade Vi Van Thanh - Standing Deputy Secretary of the Commune Party Committee was given comments on the responsibility of not promoting the role and capacity of the Party Committee in organizing cadres and inspecting work. The pressing issues and weaknesses in the area were all looked at directly by cadres and party members, told the truth, and gave sincere comments.

Comrade Nguyen Cong Kich - Member of the Standing Committee, Head of the Organizing Committee of Quy Hop District Party Committee said that the review conferences have "pursued" responsibility to the end for the existing problems and weaknesses that occurred in 2016 and the first quarter of 2017. At the same time, identifying signs of degradation must go hand in hand with drastic and specific solutions.

For example, regarding the weakness in mineral resource exploitation management, the Standing Committee of the District Party Committee directed the 6 Chairmen of the People's Committees of 6 communes with many mineral resources, including Chau Loc, Tho Hop, Chau Thanh, Chau Cuong, Chau Hong, Chau Tien, when any commune has a problem of illegal mining in the area, the Chairman of the People's Committee of that commune must immediately hand over the general management authority to the Vice Chairman to focus on solving it completely.

According to comrade Ho Le Ngoc - Member of the Provincial Party Committee, Secretary of the Quy Hop District Party Committee, in general, cadres and party members are very serious in self-criticism and criticism, giving each other constructive opinions, resolutely fighting against wrongdoings.

The content of construction and rectification is linked to specific addresses, shortcomings, weaknesses, and signs of degradation are identified specifically and clearly, with solutions to correct them associated with striving to create breakthroughs in political tasks and professional tasks at each position. That is an important basis to create great confidence in the great change from awareness to action in implementing the Resolution of the 4th Central Committee (12th term).
