China Central Radio and Television Reporter: First of all, I would like to congratulate you and the four vice premiers on their assumption of office. The next five years of the new government's term of office is a critical period for the beginning of the comprehensive construction of a socialist modern country. The work of the new government is very concerned at home and abroad. What are the goals of the new government? What are the priorities? How will it work?
Li Qiang: Thank you for your congratulations, and thank you for your concern for the work of the new government.
The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China held in October last year made a comprehensive strategic plan for the development of our country in the next five years and longer. The major issues that everyone is more concerned about can find clear answers from the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. .
The job of the new government is to implement and implement the decisions and arrangements of the Party Central Committee, turn the grand blueprint drawn by the Party's 20th National Congress into a construction plan, and work with the people of the whole country to turn the grand blueprint into a construction project step by step. beautiful reality.
In the future work, there are several aspects that we should focus on:
The first is to firmly establish a people-centered development philosophy. In the final analysis, the purpose of all the work of the party and the government is to benefit the people. General Secretary Xi Jinping said: "The people's yearning for a better life is our goal." We must always keep in mind the word "people" in front of the people's government at all times, and do every practical matter of people's livelihood in a down-to-earth manner. Objectively speaking, the vast majority of ordinary people do not stare at how much GDP has increased every day. They care more about housing, employment, income, education, medical treatment, ecological environment and other specific things around them. The government's work is to be close to the actual feelings of the people to plan and promote, so as to truly achieve the people's expectations and the government's actions.
The second is to concentrate on promoting high-quality development. During the two sessions, General Secretary Xi Jinping especially emphasized when participating in the deliberations of the Jiangsu delegation that we must firmly grasp the primary task of high-quality development. my country's economic and social development has made great achievements, and its economic aggregate ranks second in the world, but its development is still unbalanced and insufficient. Any aggregate indicator, when apportioned to a population base of more than 1.4 billion, has a relatively limited per capita level. Now, our development is more about solving the problem of "is it there?" In the next step, we need to pay more attention to solving the problem of "whether it is good or not", especially improving the ability of technological innovation, building a modern industrial system, and promoting the green transformation of the development model. In general, we must fully, accurately and comprehensively implement the new development concept, accelerate the construction of a new development pattern, and focus on promoting high-quality development.
The third is to unswervingly deepen reform and opening up. Reform and opening up is a key move that determines the destiny of contemporary China. In the historical process of promoting Chinese-style modernization and realizing the second century goal, we still have to "eat reforms and take an open road." It is necessary to adhere to the reform direction of the socialist market economy, adhere to a high level of opening up, and continuously enhance the motivation and vitality of development in the process of deepening reform and opening up.
