China Youth Network Beijing, March 23 rd(Reporter Du Meichen) In this year’s government work report, "vigorously promote ‘ Internet+government services ’ Realizing data sharing between departments, making residents and enterprises run less errands, do things well and do not add congestion "has become a highlight, which is talked about by people."
After this content, Li Keqiang personally added the old saying, "Keep things simple and strict, and prohibit illegal investigation", which originated from the Book of the Later Han Dynasty, in order to get rid of the rules and regulations that are inconvenient for ordinary people to do things, and government officials should not disturb people easily, which more vividly shows the government’s determination to further simplify administration and decentralize power.
"Simplifying administration and decentralizing power" has been a high-frequency word in Li Keqiang’s mouth since he became Premier of the State Council. Decentralization can not only stimulate the vitality of the market and society, let the masses run less errands, reduce the burden on enterprises, but also promote the government to promote the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity in the "self-revolution". And "Simplifying and removing the troublesome and demanding, and prohibiting the inspection of the illegal" is exactly what Li Keqiang added to this "reform picture scroll".
"Use the pain of reducing the power of the government to change the coolness of the masses."
At the press conference of Premier Li Keqiang’s answers to Chinese and foreign journalists held on March 16th, faced with sharp questions from Chinese and foreign journalists about the stock market, economic situation, reform, people’s livelihood, and Sino-foreign relations, Li Keqiang was frank and eloquent, and such golden sentences as "A sense of security for the elderly will not become empty talk" and "The pain of reducing power for the people to do things smoothly" were frequent and impressive.
At this press conference, Li Keqiang said many times that he would further simplify administration and decentralize power to create greater convenience for the people, which echoed the emphasis on "Internet+government services" in this year’s government work report. So vigorously promoting decentralization, we can see the determination in Li Keqiang’s repeated denunciation of "wonderful proof".
In May 2015, Li Keqiang told the story that many netizens were asked to produce all kinds of "wonderful certificates" at the the State Council executive meeting, denouncing some government offices and departments for their irregularities, opacity and inaction in management and services. Li Keqiang said, "I have seen media reports that a citizen who wants to travel abroad needs to fill in ‘ Emergency contact ’ He wrote his mother’s name, and the relevant department asked him to prove it ‘ Your mother is your mother ’ ! How can this be proved? It’s a big joke! "
On November 18th, 2015, at the executive meeting in the State Council, Li Keqiang mentioned another social news: A woman wanted to move her household registration from Kunming to Chengdu, but was told that she needed an "unmarried certificate". As a result, she traveled back and forth four times and took eight months. No place or department was willing to open this "certificate". Li Keqiang criticized, "This department wants the certificate from that department, and that department wants this department to issue the certificate first. Every department is like ‘ Pass the parcel ’ Similarly, the result was that the people ran off their legs. "
Nowadays, "internet plus" is closely integrated with all walks of life, and the Internet has also become a powerful tool for decentralization. With the attention of Premier Li Keqiang and relevant departments, relying on the Internet platform, the quality and speed of public services in the administrative departments have been greatly improved, which will open up the "last mile" for the masses to do things, block the generation of "wonderful proof" from the source, and let the masses truly experience the "cool" of doing things.
Simple administration and decentralization lead the way for entrepreneurship and development, and loosen the development of enterprises
At this year’s Chinese and foreign press conference, when talking about confidence in China’s economy, Li Keqiang said that China is promoting simple administration and tax reduction, and these supply-side structural reforms will release market vitality.
Simplifying administration and decentralization is not only the natural enemy of "wonderful proof", but also makes great contributions to "leading the way for entrepreneurship and loosening the development of enterprises" under the wave of "double innovation". Through decentralization and related system reform measures, the registration of millions of new enterprises and the growth of tens of millions of employed people have been directly promoted, which has further injected infinite youthful vitality into China’s economy under the new normal.
Paying attention to opening the way for entrepreneurship and loosening enterprises through decentralization stems from Li Keqiang’s action of listening to people’s voices and daring to speak for them. Previously, Li Keqiang criticized the government for "too much management" and paid full attention to the strong voice of some market players, especially small and micro enterprises, to "further reduce or cancel pre-approval".
In November 2014, Li Keqiang listed the "market voice" he heard to the participants at the the State Council executive meeting: a person in charge of a grain circulation enterprise got a business license, but he still needed a license for grain circulation; An entrepreneur started a property management company and soon got a business license, but the license was delayed and could not be operated; There is also a company that is committed to overseas investment. For a long time, every investment project needs government audit, which makes the company "lose at the starting line before the competition starts". At this meeting, the government also decided to reduce pre-approval and implement online approval of investment projects to further release investment potential and development vitality.
At the beginning of his tenure, Li Keqiang promised to cut more than 1,700 administrative examination and approval items by one-third, and completed the task ahead of schedule in two years. The implementation of reforms such as "three certificates in one" and "one photo and one yard" also successfully upgraded decentralization, which presented a "big gift package" for the people to realize their entrepreneurial dreams.
As Li Keqiang emphasized at this year’s Chinese and foreign press conference, unreasonable documents that affect the people’s entrepreneurial enthusiasm and even harm the interests of the people should be resolutely cleaned up and abolished. In the first year of the Thirteenth Five-Year Plan, decentralization will further promote mass entrepreneurship and innovation by clearing obstacles.
The combination of "liberalization" and "management" and decentralization is the government’s self-revolution.
Simplifying administration and decentralizing power are considered as the "first move" and "the first shot" of the current government. Li Keqiang said, "Simplifying administration and decentralizing power is the government’s self-revolution. Cutting power is to touch interests, not cutting nails, but cutting wrists."
Since the establishment of this government, Li Keqiang and other the State Council leaders have written hundreds of instructions on decentralization, and a series of related reform measures have also shown the fruitful results of these instructions.
In June 2014, the State Council issued "Several Opinions on Promoting Fair Competition in the Market and Maintaining Normal Market Order", which clarified 27 specific reform measures and promulgated the outline of the social credit system construction plan. In July, 2014, the the State Council executive meeting deliberated and adopted the Provisional Regulations on Enterprise Information Publicity (Draft). In July, 2015, the executive meeting of the State Council decided to promote the random sampling mechanism. These measures to simplify administration and decentralize power make the market more transparent and fair, and become a catalyst to stimulate market vitality.
However, decentralization should not only achieve "power subtraction", but also achieve "responsibility addition" to realize the "trinity" of decentralization, combination of decentralization and management, and optimization of services.
Li Keqiang once emphasized "combining management with control". "The government has taken care of too many things that should not be taken care of. Simple administration and decentralization ‘ Self-revolution ’ We must advance in depth, ‘ Put ’ With ‘ Tube ’ We must work together to advance. Otherwise, if you want to stabilize growth and ensure employment, you may go back to the old road of over-reliance on investment. "
Decentralization is not laissez-faire. As Li Keqiang said at this year’s press conference, regulatory measures to create a level playing field must be put in place, and arbitrary inspections should be prevented, so that decentralization can be more effective, productivity can be developed, and people can benefit.
Under the leadership of Li Keqiang, the government is striding forward on the road of decentralization. In the "self-revolution" of the government, the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity has also been further promoted.
