Governing the country is permanent, and benefiting the people is the foundation. Ensuring and improving people's livelihood is an important foundation for promoting high-quality development, and it is also an inherent meaning of Chinese-style modernization.
People's livelihood security, in the development narrative of 2023, is still about warmth. It is a key to public rental housing, and residents have a stable "home";It is a meal, and the elderly can eat in the canteen at the door of their home;It is an affordable medicine, and the essential medicine for some patients has been reduced from tens of thousands of yuan to hundreds of yuan. Employment, education, medical care, childcare, pension, housing, and environment are all things that people are close to, intimate, and concrete. Only by integrating these livelihood matters into the overall situation of economic and social development, and making them constantly turn into people's sense of gain, happiness and security, can we truly improve people's livelihood and well-being.
Observe the strong and effective livelihood protection, and the data is more convincing. In the first three quarters of this year, the per capita disposable income of residents nationwide increased by 5 percent in real terms9%, the growth rate of residents' income is faster than the GDP growth rate, and the growth rate of rural residents' income is faster than that of urban residentsFrom January to October, 11.09 million new jobs were created in cities and towns across the country, completing 92% of the annual targetIn the first 11 months, the national household consumption **year-on-year**03%, and the price performance was generally stable and ......The changes in people's livelihood such as increased income, stable employment, convenient medical treatment, stable prices, and the recovery of cultural tourism have shown to a large extent that a series of work to benefit the people's livelihood, warm the hearts of the people, and conform to the will of the people has been quite effective, effectively solving the problems of urgency, difficulty and longing, and effectively responding to the new expectations of the masses.
The more complex and severe the economic situation is, the more important it is to focus on people's livelihood concerns and firmly adhere to the basic line of people's livelihood. The first economic work conference held not long ago pointed out that "to further promote the economic rebound, we need to overcome some difficulties and challenges". In the face of the new situation and new tasks, there are nine key tasks for doing a good job in economic work next year, one of which is to "effectively guarantee and improve people's livelihood." We should give more prominence to the priority orientation of employment, weave a solid social security net, improve the social assistance system by stratification and classification, and develop the ...... the silver economyOnly by highlighting the key points, grasping the key, insisting on doing our best and doing what we can, and holding the bottom line of people's livelihood with actual results and results, can we continue to transform more development achievements into a high-quality life for the people.
People's happiness and well-being is the ultimate goal of promoting high-quality development. Taking the cultural tourism market in 2023 as an example, the quality of consumption will continue to improve, the consumer demand will continue to be enriched, and the night market will become hot and prosperous, reflecting the vitality of China's development in the flow and fireworks. Behind this, it is inseparable from the support of cultural and tourism-related industries, the prosperity of the cultural tourism market, and the growth of residents' income, which has injected new vitality into the high-quality development of the economy and society. Similarly, this new vitality of consumption has driven more industries to improve their quality and upgrade, and the benefits of business entities have multiplied, which also contains new vitality and new potential. This also shows that high-quality development and high-quality life are complementary to each other, and only by realizing a virtuous circle of economic development and improvement of people's livelihood can the masses better share the fruits of development and get tangible benefits.
The key to whether the road to modernization can be carried out smoothly and steadily depends on whether or not we adhere to the people-centered approach. "Chinese modernization is the modernization of a huge population, and it is also the modernization of common prosperity for all people. Protecting and improving people's livelihood means that in the process of promoting Chinese-style modernization, we must conform to the people's higher expectations for a better life, strive to solve the most direct and practical interests of the people, improve the basic public service system, improve the level of public services, and enhance balance and accessibility. As the saying goes, only when thousands of households are good can the country be good. By doing things that benefit the people's livelihood, warm the hearts of the people, and conform to the will of the people, and provide people with more satisfactory incomes, more stable jobs, more reliable social security, and higher levels of medical and health services, we can continue to polish the background of value and build a solid foundation of value by promoting Chinese-style modernization with the people as the center.
There is no end to the improvement of people's livelihood, only a continuous starting point. When the dream of national prosperity and the dream of people's happiness are intertwined, and when the changes in the development of the times and the changes in the lives of the people are intertwined, people understand more and more that everything they strive for yesterday, today and tomorrow is to promote the people's lives in a better direction. Seek more benefits for the people's livelihood, solve the worries of the people's livelihood, and do more things for the people's livelihood, the people's happiness index will be higher and a better life will be better.
