May 12, 2018, the 10th anniversary of the Wenchuan earthquake.
10 years of tempering, 10 years of rebirth.
In the past 10 years, under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee, especially since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, under a series of major arrangements made by the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, great achievements have been made in the post-earthquake recovery and reconstruction of Wenchuan, which fully demonstrated the strong leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and the great superiority of the Socialism with Chinese characteristics system.
People’s homeland — —
The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has always been concerned about the people in the disaster area. Historical achievements have been made in the development of post-disaster recovery and reconstruction, and a historic leap has been achieved.
"I am very concerned about this place for 10 years, and I am very pleased with the changes here." The words of the Supreme Leader General Secretary are like a spring breeze, sending the care of the CPC Central Committee into the hearts of the people in the disaster areas.
On February 12, 2018, near the Spring Festival, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader who visited Sichuan once again set foot on the land of Yingxiu Town, Wenchuan.
"The action of the general secretary’s work is a life experience at first glance." Yang Yungang, 53, was very excited when he mentioned that the Supreme Leader General Secretary came to Yingxiu Town to fry crispy meat and grind tofu pudding in his restaurant.
Ten years ago, on May 12th, Sichuan was hit hard by the most destructive, widespread and difficult earthquake since the founding of New China.
Shortly after the earthquake, the supreme leader of the CPC The Politburo Standing Committee (PSC) and Vice President of the State braved the aftershocks and went to the disaster area.
Youxian, Pingwu, Beichuan, Jiangyou, Dujiangyan, Wenchuan … … Wherever he goes, when listening to the disaster report, his first concern is always the safety and warmth of the masses. He walked into tents and prefabricated houses, asking people in detail whether it was convenient to eat, shop and see a doctor, and what difficulties were there … …
"At that time, life was full of confusion, houses collapsed, homes were gone, and the sky fell. He cheered us up when we needed it most! I believe that there is no hurdle that cannot be crossed! " Yang Yungang clearly remembers the first meeting with the supreme leader outside the tent party branch after the earthquake struck.
Ten years have dyed Yang Yungang’s temples white, but his face has a bright smile. Today, the annual net income of the restaurant run by him and his wife has reached 150,000 yuan. The hotel has a meaningful name — — "fraternity" He said that whenever foreign tourists go to restaurants for dinner, the topic can’t be avoided by the earthquake. He told everyone: "It is the party and the government that have reborn us, and Yingxiu people always remember this kindness."
Yingxiu Town in Qingqing, the completed Duwen Expressway, is like a black dragon crossing mountains. The devastated town is now peaceful and peaceful, and has successfully transformed from an industrial town to a tourist town. In 2017, the total economic income of the town reached 256 million yuan, and the income of the tertiary industry was 174 million yuan.
"Properly resettling the affected people is the top priority of the current earthquake relief work. We must pay close attention to it, grasp it, and do a good job in supporting the construction of public service facilities as much as possible, and do everything possible to facilitate the production and life of the people." In June 2008, the Supreme Leader repeatedly stressed when he went to Sichuan disaster area.
Heart is the disaster area, heart is the people in the disaster area, and this passionate feeling for the people highlights the ruling direction of the people first.
Shaanxi is one of the hardest hit areas of Wenchuan earthquake. In November 2009, when investigating in Shaanxi, the Supreme Leader told the relevant departments of the central government and cadres in Shaanxi to focus on caring for and helping the affected people, speed up the reconstruction of public service facilities such as schools and hospitals, ensure that the rural people’s housing reconstruction task is basically completed before the end of the year, and help the people in the disaster areas to build a happy and beautiful home.
"Education is the fundamental way for human beings to inherit civilization and knowledge, cultivate the younger generation and create a better life." The children’s learning environment and physical and mental health have always been the concern of the Supreme Leader General Secretary. From the temporary Banfang Primary School in Pingtong Town, Pingwu County to Yongli Village Primary School in Guixi Township, Beichuan County, he has left his concern and exhortation.
"Sichuan has won the victory in earthquake relief and post-disaster recovery and reconstruction, and created miracles in earthquake relief and post-disaster recovery and reconstruction. In particular, we are very excited to see the inspiring spirit of the broad masses of cadres and people and their full hope, enthusiasm and firm belief in a better life in the future." In August 2011, the Supreme Leader said during an inspection tour in Sichuan.
During the inspection in February 2018, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader once again cheered for everyone in Yingxiu Town: "I wish you all greater achievements in building a better life with hard-working hands."
The concern of the CPC Central Committee for the local people has become a powerful spiritual driving force for the local people to unite with the party and forge ahead.
Every night at 7 o’clock, Zhu Bihua from Jina Qiangzhai, Leigu Town, Beichuan County will go to the square to lead everyone to dance "Sharon Dance", and she will also sing toast song for tourists with her sisters during the tourist season.
In August, 2011, the first stop of the Supreme Leader’s visit to Sichuan came to Gina Qiangzhai. At that time, the village was transforming from traditional agriculture to village tourism. When he talked with the villagers, he said that your economic development ideas are very good, especially the tourism industry, which has grown from scratch, is fascinating, in the ascendant and has a good development momentum. I hope everyone will pay attention to diversified development, adjust measures to local conditions and further explore ways to increase income.
Bearing this entrustment in mind, the hardworking Gina Qiangzhai folks struggled endlessly, and in 2013, they successfully established a national 5A-level tourist attraction, and more than 90% of the farmers in the village opened "Qiangjiale", tea houses and family hotels; In 2017, the per capita disposable income reached 16,000 yuan, making Beichuan a well-known well-off village.
Walking in the hardest-hit areas of that year, new villages are dotted among green mountains and green waters, tall buildings are lined up one after another, and factories are springing up in industrial parks … …
Looking back on the past 10 years, with the strong support of the whole country, Sichuan Province worked hard with one heart and one mind. The earthquake-stricken areas in that year achieved historic changes in urban and rural appearance, breakthrough progress in people’s livelihood, fundamental improvement in infrastructure, regenerative leap in industrial development and substantial improvement in ecological environment.
Under the strong leadership and strong deployment of the CPC Central Committee, the local government has always adhered to the principle of giving priority to people’s livelihood, restored and rebuilt 3,340 educational institutions, 2,032 medical service institutions and 1,115 public cultural service facilities, and helped 1.575 million unemployed people who lost their land due to the disaster to achieve employment. The facilities and equipment of schools and hospitals have been significantly improved, and the seismic standard is 1 degree higher than that of local civil buildings.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the GDP of 39 hardest-hit counties in Wenchuan earthquake-stricken areas has increased by 9.3% annually. The per capita disposable income of urban and rural residents increased by 9.2% and 11% respectively. In the six cities and prefectures severely affected by Sichuan, the total economic output accounted for 49.63% in the province in 2012, and increased to 52.88% in 2017.
Home of the new era — —
Under the guidance of the new development concept, we will keep green mountains and green rivers, promote rural revitalization, and embark on the road of high-quality development in the local area.
"The encouragement of the General Secretary has given us great confidence!" Recalling the scene of communication with the general secretary, Jiang Weiming, the owner of "Tea Xiangzi" tea house in Yingxiu Town, still remembers it vividly.
On February 12, 2018, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader walked into this tea house to inspect the traditional black tea making process and experience the butter tea making process.
It is said that Wowo tea in the store is exported to countries and regions along the Belt and Road. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader hopes that everyone will strive for perfection, create famous brands and make more contributions to the construction of the Belt and Road.
"The business is getting better and better. I hope that tea can be used as a carrier to let more people know about the traditional culture of China." On Jiang Weiming’s promotion list this year, Spain, Morocco and other countries have been added.
The fragrance of Wowo tea spreads far and wide overseas, reflecting the new breath of this land.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, under the guidance of the new development concept, Wenchuan’s post-disaster recovery, reconstruction, development and revitalization have embarked on a path of sustainable development.
Ten years after the earthquake in Beichuan, the towering mountains are still endless, and the turbulent currents are still rushing, but Beichuan has bid farewell to the "three-headed" economy of "wood, stone and water head" and replaced it with a new industrial form of green, environmental protection and sustainable development.
Walking into Beichuan Navigation Industrial Park, there are many tower cranes on the construction site of Pan Am project; On the ridge, the airport runway under construction is busy. The park is positioned as a high-end characteristic park integrating manufacturing, R&D, operation, training, maintenance and tourism services, and has been awarded the title of the first batch of "aviation flight camp" in China, and it will become a characteristic navigation town in the future.
Under the guidance of the new development concept, Wenchuan’s post-disaster recovery, reconstruction and development and revitalization have continuously opened up a new situation — —
The provinces and cities aided by counterparts have made concerted efforts with the Party committees and governments in the disaster areas to adjust and transform the original scattered and backward industrial layout. A number of new industrial cooperation parks and special agricultural products processing bases have sprung up in Shifang, Beijing, Beichuan, Shandong, Qingchuan, Zhejiang, Mianzhu, Jiangsu and Dujiangyan, Shanghai, and some modern service industries and new industries have achieved win-win results for the recipients. Some towns and villages in the disaster areas that were originally blocked seized the opportunity of the "Belt and Road" construction and the implementation of the development strategy of the Yangtze River Economic Belt to speed up the pace of opening up; Tourism has become a new bright spot in the development of disaster areas, and local people are increasingly feeling the comfort of "beautiful countryside" and the joy of "green income increase".
In early summer, on the western edge of the western Sichuan Plain, at the foot of Longmen Mountain, 10,000 mu of roses are in full bloom.
The torn land has now become the well-known "China Rose Valley" and has been approved as "Mianzhu National Rose Park in Sichuan". Tumen, Guangji, Zundao and other towns in Mianzhu City have transferred 24,800 mu of cultivated land to promote rose planting, which drives farmers to increase their income by about 135 million yuan every year.
Ten thousand mu of roses are a gift from the concept of green development to the villagers. "Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets", the catchy words of the Supreme Leader General Secretary, is vividly written on this land.
Return the world to beautiful Bashu, and make the people rich and beautiful — —
In Wenchuan, cherry trees in many towns and villages are covered with mountains and valleys. Wenchuan cherry has become a well-known geographical indication product of agricultural products, with an annual output of 9 million kilograms and an output value of 270 million yuan, which has driven many local people to increase their income;
In Qingchuan, people have changed from "relying on mountains to protecting mountains", 80% of forest land has been closed for afforestation, and products such as auricularia auricula, honey and morel have been sold nationwide through e-commerce platforms … …
In the past 10 years, especially since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the damaged forest land and mountain vegetation in Wenchuan have been gradually restored, with 4,488,700 mu of forest and grass vegetation restored and 1,486,500 mu of giant panda habitat restored. The reconstruction of environmental protection facilities, such as water source protection, waste treatment and soil pollution control, has been completed in an all-round way, and most of the construction waste has been reused.
Wenchuan Shuimo, Mianzhu Mahayana and Shifang Mazu Temple … … Demonstration villages and towns with distinctive characteristics promote the integration of urban and rural areas. With the completion and commissioning of Chengdu-Dujiangyan high-speed railway and Dujiangyan-Yingxiu expressway, the comprehensive transportation system is more perfect, which has set up a new bridge for people in disaster areas to get rich and increase their income, bringing new hope for rural revitalization.
In August 2011, the Supreme Leader came to Yulong Community, a new county town in Beichuan, and walked into Wang Kangping’s home. The hostess Chen Shiqiong presented the Qiang embroidery "Yangjiaohua" embroidered by herself to the Supreme Leader. The supreme leader wishes everyone: let the days be more prosperous!
Qiang embroidery, a minority skill that has been hidden in the mountains for many years, has now gone out of the mountains and gone to the whole country, and a big industry has been "embroidered" one by one.
In Aba Prefecture, the Women’s Qiang Embroidery Employment Assistance Center, Qiang Embroidery Cooperative and Qiang Embroidery Company have been established one after another, which has driven more than 8,000 rural women to find jobs flexibly at home. Relevant parties have also stepped up e-commerce training to help Qiang embroidery products get out of the mountains.
Not only Qiang embroidery, Aba Prefecture gives full play to its regional characteristics, and through the revitalization of industry and the integration of culture and tourism, it has created brand bases such as wine grape planting in Lewu Town and cultural tourism of Qiang nationality in Lixian County.
"Implementing the rural revitalization strategy is a major decision-making arrangement made by the 19 th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and it is a major historical task to build a well-off society in an all-round way and build a socialist modern country in an all-round way." General Secretary of the Supreme Leader attaches great importance to the rural revitalization strategy.
After the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Central Rural Work Conference and the No.1 Document of the Central Committee further deployed the road of rural revitalization in Socialism with Chinese characteristics.
"The industry is prosperous, the ecology is livable, the rural customs are civilized, the governance is effective, and the life is rich". Now, looking around the whole disaster area, we are trying to find our own revitalization path according to the requirements of these 20 words, centering on the goal of strong agriculture, beautiful countryside and rich farmers.
Accelerate the structural reform of agricultural supply side, promote the certification of land and forest land, and innovate the financial support for agriculture … … The local government is pressing the "fast forward button" for reform and the "fast forward button" for revitalization.
A better home — —
The party is the vanguard and the backbone, and the masses have the endogenous power to come out in a majestic way, moving towards a well-off society in an all-round way with the people of the whole country.
On the epic monument of earthquake relief, in the history of counterpart aid construction in full swing, the heroic and tireless figure of Communist party member is everywhere.
"The earth shakes and the mountains shake, and the foundation is firm."
In June, 2008, when the Supreme Leader inspected the earthquake relief work in Sichuan, he focused on Party building. Everywhere he went, he wanted to know about the role played by Party organizations, party member and cadres in earthquake relief.
When inspecting the equipment damage of Sichuan Bashu Jiangyou Power Plant, he played a central role in the party committee of the enterprise, and immediately organized party member and cadres to reinforce the plant and repair the equipment. Now, entering the Jiangyou Power Plant of Shenhua Sichuan Energy Company, the plant is shaded by green trees and neat. Although it has undergone changes in reform and restructuring, the leading core role of enterprise party organizations in ensuring the direction and implementation has not changed. After 10 years of refining, this enterprise has completed the transformation of desulfurization and denitrification and ultra-low emission, and promoted local small and medium-sized enterprises to cancel small boilers, saving nearly 100,000 tons of standard coal and reducing sulfur dioxide emissions by more than 10,000 tons.
A party organization is a battle fortress, and party member, the Communist Party of Qian Qian, is the backbone of the people in the disaster area.
"Practice has proved that grasping the grassroots and laying a good foundation are important guarantees for us to cope with various difficulties and risks, and we cannot ignore or relax at any time." The supreme leader stressed.
In the 10 years since Wenchuan, the title of Communist party member has become louder and louder through time and space.
On May 23, 2013, Lan Hui, the former deputy magistrate of Beichuan County, accidentally fell off a cliff on his way to the countryside to inspect the village road construction and geological disasters.
The Communist party member, known as the "county magistrate on wheels", endured the grief of losing three relatives after the earthquake and devoted himself to earthquake relief without sleep. During the three years as a deputy county magistrate, two-thirds of the time was on the road; He is meticulous to the masses. When he meets the old woman in Tea Garden Village carrying pig grass, he will grab the basket and carry it from the mountain to the foot of the mountain … …
Lan Hui — — An inspiring name.
"Comrade Lan Hui always puts the cause of the party and the people in the highest position in his heart, is a good cadre who practices the party’s mass line with his life, and is a model for communist party people in the new period. The majority of party member cadres should learn from his political qualities of firm belief and loyalty to the party, the public servant feelings of caring for the masses and doing their duty for the people, the dedication of selfless work, pragmatism and enterprising, the lofty character of self-denial and courage to take responsibility, firmly establish a sense of purpose, and consciously be pragmatic and honest for the people, give better play to the exemplary role, and constantly make achievements that can stand the test of practice, people and history. " General Secretary of the Supreme Leader’s instructions on Lan Hui’s advanced deeds inspired party member all over the country, and even spurred party member in the disaster area to fight bravely.
"With hands, feet and lives, great difficulties can be overcome!" Once upon a time, on the ruins of Qingchuan, the clank oath shouted by Communist party member was deafening.
Today, Communist party member carries forward the great spirit of earthquake relief, implements the new development concept, and leads the people in the disaster areas to forge ahead on the road of a well-off society in an all-round way.
"At present, the key to poverty alleviation work is to make precise efforts and focus on the grassroots, and some need to do something next ‘ Embroidery ’ Kung fu. " During the National "Two Sessions" in 2017, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized when attending the deliberation of the Sichuan delegation.
In the earthquake-stricken areas, party member and cadres kept in mind the entrustment of the General Secretary and strived to benchmark.
Dasi Village, Keku Township, Wenchuan County, is full of flowers in spring and fruits in summer and autumn, even in the cold winter. In the past two years, this traditional farming village, where soil erosion has been increasing, has become a well-known "Yunyun Qiangzhai", and ordinary people have eaten "ecological rice".
Its change can not be separated from Du Bin, the first resident secretary from Sichuan Forestry Department.
Inviting forestry experts to help villagers improve their planting techniques, introducing crisp plums suitable for local planting, and combining local ecological resources and Qiang culture to engage in rural eco-tourism … … With the meticulous embroidering and enterprising spirit, Du Bin is leading the whole village to get rid of poverty and make great strides towards a well-off society.
In 2016 and 2017, the sales revenue of crispy plums in the whole village exceeded 3 million yuan, and the average household reached 40,000 yuan. Rural eco-tourism is also gaining momentum. It is estimated that the per capita annual income of the whole village will reach 20,000 yuan in 2018.
Locked in the goal of "two worries and three guarantees", the Wenchuan earthquake-stricken area launched a series of combination boxing to help the poor, made great efforts to "embroider" and strictly implemented the requirements of "six precisions" and "five batches". Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the number of poor people has decreased from 999,000 to 223,200.
People are the creators of history.
"We must continue to exert our efforts in promoting industrial development and improving people’s livelihood, and build people’s homes better." In February 2018, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader sent a deep message to the people in the disaster area.
Under the leadership of party organizations at all levels, in the expectation of a better life, people’s creativity is stimulated and endogenous motivation is bursting out.
On April 19, 2018, with the completion and shipment of two low-pressure rotors weighing 280 tons for Fuqing Unit 5 at Dongfang Steam Turbine Co., Ltd. of Dongfang Electric Group, the development of the first conventional island steam turbine main equipment for China’s independent intellectual property nuclear power project "Hualong No.1" was completed, and it is expected that grid-connected power generation will be completed in the first half of 2020.
In the process of research and development, Dongqi broke through the world-class development problems such as the longest grade blade, the heaviest welded nuclear power rotor and the lateral support of ultra-heavy low-pressure cylinder, setting a number of "firsts" and "biggest" in the industry.
Ten years ago, the huge earthquake hit this leading enterprise in China’s power generation equipment manufacturing industry. However, after the earthquake, Dongqi people dried their tears and quickly put themselves into post-disaster production recovery and reconstruction. In August, 2011, the Supreme Leader visited Dongqi and spoke highly of their indomitable spirit of overcoming difficulties.
Today, more than 5,800 employees have carried forward the spirit of Dongqi in earthquake relief, provided more than one third of large-scale power generation equipment for China, and established an industry-leading technology research and development platform, covering coal-fired, nuclear energy, gas, energy-saving and environmental protection power generation and other fields.
In 2020, the per capita disposable income of farmers in Beichuan County will exceed 15,000 yuan, 280 happy and beautiful new villages will be built, and the network information in poverty-stricken areas will be fully covered.
In 2020, the Wenchuan-Marcand Expressway is expected to be completed, which is close to the earthquake zone and directly passes through the Longmenshan fault zone … …
In 10 years, tenacious weeds have already covered the wounds of mountains and rivers; In 10 years, the newly-built home is writing the future.
Ruins of Xuankou Middle School in Yingxiu Town, Wenchuan, in February 2018, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader came here to present flower baskets to the victims of the Wenchuan earthquake and the heroes who died in the earthquake relief, and bowed three times.
"We must protect the earthquake site and make it an important patriotic education base." He told.
At present, the newly-built oath square is beside the site, and the main sculpture is named "Mother’s Heart", which means that when the earthquake suddenly strikes, the bright party flag rises proudly on the ruins, and the mother of the motherland calls out her children affectionately on the ruins.
The miracle of recovery, reconstruction and development after the devastating earthquake written on this land fully embodies the strong leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC), the great superiority of the Socialism with Chinese characteristics system, and the great spirit of the Chinese nation.
Looking forward to the future, under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, the local people will certainly continue to strive for self-improvement and hard work, forge ahead with the people of the whole country, and build a better people’s homeland with their hands on the journey of winning the battle to build a well-off society in an all-round way!
