In modern society, it is essential to ensure public trust. However, the words and deeds of a village worker in Baoding City, Hebei Province, have once again raised questions about the integrity of public officials. A village staff member used a threatening tone on social **, suggesting that not paying medical insurance would affect the child's examination for public office, which is outrageous. But what is even more shocking is that the attitude of the staff member is to refuse to admit the account and shirk responsibility. Such behaviour not only seriously undermines public credibility, but also has a devastating negative impact on the image of public officials. Next, we will describe and analyze the incident in detail.
The remarks posted by Liu Moumou, a staff member of a village, on social ** caused an uproar. In a threatening tone, he hinted at the villagers to pay for health insurance. This irresponsible rhetoric is outrageous. However, what is even more unacceptable is that Liu Moumou did not admit his account and shirked his responsibility. He claimed that his WeChat had been stolen by someone else and said he did not know who posted the remarks. This indefensible explanation exposes his dereliction of duty even more.
Judging from Liu's statement, it can be seen that he did not complete his duties during working hours. According to local regulations, village staff should have a fixed working time, and Liu's WeChat can actually log in to the village committee, which shows that he has time to work, but has not completed work tasks, which is a typical dereliction of duty.
In addition, the village council should have surveillance equipment and the ability to investigate the truth. Liu Moumou did not hesitate to confirm that others had stolen his WeChat speech, and this statement showed that he wanted to keep his innocence, because this matter may affect his regularization, and even involve his public status. Therefore, we strongly recommend that the local ** investigate the matter and verify the truth of the incident through surveillance video.
In addition, Liu Moumou said that this was posted by someone else using his WeChat, but he did not find out whether someone had stolen his WeChat. Such an irresponsible attitude is tantamount to the laziness and inaction of public officials. Faced with such a situation, we can't help but ask, is he really working? In other words, he was only appointed to an important role externally, and did not perform substantive duties.
After the incident fermented, the township-level staff unexpectedly appeared in the first field and defended Liu Moumou under the pretext of "external accounting". Allegedly, he made those remarks with good intentions. However, such an explanation is clearly untenable.
First of all, the rhetoric of external finance is an old-fashioned excuse. Township level staff can completely explain and intervene in the incident in other ways, instead of blindly using external finance to defend Liu. Such an overly archaic interpretation only raises questions and causes more damage to the image of public officials.
Secondly, the arguments of the staff at the township level were not convincing. Whether it is external finance or others, Liu Moumou still needs to be held responsible as a public official. Whether it is a statement or the consequences of his speech, he should bear it himself. The use of "external finance" to shift responsibility will only further deepen the public's distrust of public officials.
Against the backdrop of this incident, we can't help but wonder why many people in rural areas refuse to pay for health insurance. This is mainly due to the high cost of health insurance and limited reimbursement coverage.
The cost of medical insurance in rural areas has risen from 10 yuan at the beginning to 380 yuan now, which is a huge expense for rural families. Rural income is limited, and they can't earn a lot of money a year from farming, and if they have to pay huge annual medical insurance costs, it is a burden for them. In addition, the reimbursement scope of medical insurance is limited, and many rural hospitals are not covered by the reimbursement scope, which leads to many people being suspicious and distrustful of medical insurance.
However, we believe that the importance of health insurance cannot be overlooked. At critical moments, medical insurance can effectively solve patients' worries. In local county-level hospitals, the reimbursement rate for medical insurance is about 70% to 80%. For most farmers, health insurance may help them with the cost of medical care to some extent. Therefore, we strongly urge farmers to pay their medical insurance premiums in a timely manner to ensure that they have medical protection when they need it.
The incident not only revealed the incompetence and irresponsibility of a village staff, but also exposed the root cause of the rural medical insurance problem. In modern society, the influence of the words and deeds of public officials on the public is enormous. We should require public officials to have good professional ethics and a sense of responsibility to provide better services to the public. At the same time, we should also recognize the importance of medical insurance, pay medical insurance fees in a timely manner, and ensure that we can receive timely medical help at critical moments. Only in this way can we build a more fair, transparent and trusting society.
