Self-reliance, self-improvement and aspiration to rise up

Breakthrough in thinking

LIVEThanh Lien commune(Thanh Chuong district), the aspiration of the Party Committee and the People in this term is to develop the locality quickly and comprehensively; the commune will achieve advanced new rural status by the end of 2021 and a model new rural status by 2024. According to comrade Phan Ba ​​Ngoc - Party Secretary, Chairman of the People's Committee of Thanh Lien commune, to turn that aspiration into reality, it is important to "pierce" the mindset of more than 10,000 people in agreement, because the biggest obstacle in realizing the aspiration is the mindset of early satisfaction and fear of conflict and hardship among a part of cadres, party members and people. The measure to overcome that mindset is to persistently propagate, mobilize, and persuade, combined with directing the construction of effective pilot models; for cadres and party members, their awareness of implementing policies and exemplary roles will be considered...

In Thanh Chuong district, communes that have not yet reached the new rural finish line have set aspirations and determination to overcome difficulties to reach the new rural finish line; communes that have reached the finish line have built advanced new rural areas and moved towards building model new rural areas.

In general, according to comrade Trinh Van Nha - Deputy Secretary of the District Party Committee, Chairman of the District People's Committee, Thanh Chuong's aspiration in this term is to strive to become a fairly good district of the province. This aspiration, through the implementation and study of the resolution, has been conveyed by Party committees at all levels to cadres, party members and people. In particular, through the study of the topic "Studying and following Ho Chi Minh's ideology, morality and style on self-reliance and the aspiration to develop a prosperous and happy country", Party committees at all levels continue to clarify specific requirements for cadres, civil servants and people. Each household is also propagated and mobilized to change their lives by changing their profession, changing their economic model to a higher value, and implementing new economic models.

To create motivation, leaders must know how to "inspire", set an example of innovative thinking, a desire for development, dare to think, dare to do, dare to take responsibility before the people. In addition to the role of the leader, all levels, agencies, units and localities must also have a clear mechanism for assigning tasks, using work efficiency to evaluate cadres, and reward and punish clearly.

For Anh Son district, the aspiration of the Party Committee and the People is to make the district a top unit among the mountainous districts of Nghe An province. To achieve that goal, according to comrade Nguyen Huu Sang - Secretary of Anh Son District Party Committee, the district promotes the role ofresponsibility to set an exampleof cadres and party members on the will of self-reliance, self-improvement and the aspiration to develop according to Ho Chi Minh's ideology, morality and style. From there, it creates motivation and encourages all classes of people to move together.

Along with solutions to promote leadership and exemplary role, "cadres and party members go first, the country follows", Anh Son district also focuses on removing bottlenecks and weaknesses, including perfecting technical infrastructure through attracting capital sources from outside and promoting self-reliance and self-strengthening through internal resources, mobilizing people's strength.

For Ky Son, to realize the aspiration of soon escaping from poverty, the Ky Son District Party Committee clearly identified bottlenecks to focus on overcoming, such as the mentality of waiting, relying on, and locality, ethnicity, and clanism among cadres, party members, and people; the quality of staff at some establishments is both lacking and weak; limited thinking and production level, plus the lack of means of production, especially land; poor conditions of traffic infrastructure, electricity, education, health, and culture (the district still has 78 villages without grid electricity). From clearly identifying bottlenecks, Ky Son district also identified these as breakthrough contents to concretize with resolutions, projects, and plans to focus on leadership, direction, and creating development momentum for the locality.

Implement Directive 05 with political tasks

After 35 years of innovation, along with the development of the country, Nghe An has made strong progress, especially in the appearance from urban to rural areas and the people's lives have been improved. However, in the face of the strong development of science and technology, industry 4.0, at each level, there is continuing determination and aspiration for higher and greater development. This is clearly shown inXIII Congress documentsof the Party and Party congresses at all levels in the province; especially the whole course topic on studying and following Ho Chi Minh's ideology, morality and lifestyle, which is "Studying and following Ho Chi Minh's ideology, morality and lifestyle on self-reliance and aspiration to develop a prosperous and happy country".

According to comrade Vo Van Dung - Deputy Head of the Provincial Party Committee's Propaganda Department, in order to continue to effectively implement Directive 05 in the spirit of Conclusion No. 01-KL/TW of the Politburo (13th tenure) and the entire term's theme on studying and following Ho Chi Minh's ideology, morality and style, Party committees at all levels must closely follow the political tasks of each locality and unit to turn it into the aspiration of each organization and individual through specific and practical tasks; avoid aspirations that are too general, which are very difficult to implement. That will overcome the mindset of waiting, relying, being complacent, and complacent in cadres, party members and people. Along with that, there is a clearer decentralization mechanism, thereby promoting self-reliance in each organization and individual; we cannot expect people to be self-reliant but have to ask for permission for everything and rely on the "ask - give" mechanism.

According to the Deputy Head of the Provincial Party Committee's Propaganda Department, Vo Van Dung, all levels, localities and units need to stick to and focus on resolving the weaknesses, bottlenecks and knots that have long existed and hindered development to create development momentum, such as administrative reform and personnel work. An important factor to promote the spirit of self-reliance, self-improvement and the aspiration to rise up among the people is to first of all promote the exemplary role of cadres and party members, especially leaders who must be sincere and wholehearted for the people and businesses, thereby changing their working style and manners, creating efficiency and high consensus in society. At each level, each sector, agency and unit, it is necessary to strengthen inspection and supervision; promptly detect, encourage, motivate and nurture good factors and examples, avoiding the tendency to consider good models and examples as one's own achievements.
