Attention, everyone ~

From May 1st, the contribution rate of basic old-age insurance units for urban workers will be reduced to 16%, and the social security contribution base will be adjusted …

The "Comprehensive Plan for Reducing Social Insurance Rates" issued by the State Council a few days ago will be implemented soon. The plan is clear, and from May 1 ST, the contribution ratio of urban workers’ basic old-age insurance units will be reduced. At present, the proportion of unit payment is higher than 16%, which can be reduced to 16%; At the same time, we will continue to reduce unemployment insurance and industrial injury insurance rates in stages.

The three types of insurance can reduce more than 300 billion yuan throughout the year, benefiting more than 100 million enterprises. In addition, the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Finance said that the fee reduction will reduce the income of the fund, but it will not affect the issuance of pensions.

Guangdong:It is strictly forbidden to centrally pay the historical arrears of enterprises by themselves.

It is understood that the pension insurance rate in economically developed provinces such as Guangdong and Zhejiang is 14%. In December last year, Guangdong also introduced a series of measures to reduce social security contributions. Previously, Guangdong has realized that the tax authorities have collected social insurance premiums. This time, the provincial government proposed that the social insurance payment method should remain unchanged, and the overall social insurance payment cost of enterprises should be kept stable. It is strictly forbidden for administrative law enforcement agencies to centrally pay the historical arrears of enterprises by themselves.

Maintain the unemployment insurance rate at 1% until the end of 2020, and continue to implement the floating unemployment insurance rate system;

In cities with sufficient savings in the medical insurance fund, the employer’s payment rate will be reduced by stages before the end of 2020, and the rate will be reduced by not less than 0.5 percentage points. At the same time, the average rate of industrial injury insurance in the province will be reduced by 30%.

What does the "Program" specifically include?

Eight parts, including:

(1) the proportion of basic old-age insurance units is higher than 16%, which can be reduced to 16%.

② Continue to reduce unemployment insurance and industrial injury insurance rates in stages, and extend the current phased rate reduction policy for another year until April 30, 2020.

③ Adjust the social security payment base policy.

(4) Accelerate the provincial-level co-ordination of endowment insurance, and realize the provincial-level unified collection and support of funds by the end of 2020.

⑤ This year, the proportion of central adjustment of endowment insurance funds will be increased to 3.5%.

6. Steadily promote the reform of social security fee collection system.

⑦ Establish a work coordination mechanism.

⑧ Earnestly organize and implement the work.

It is estimated that the social security payment burden will be reduced by more than 300 billion yuan in 2019.

What will happen if it is reduced to 16%?

(1) the proportion of unit contributions can be reduced by up to 4 percentage points, without conditions, nor is it a phased policy, but a long-term institutional arrangement.

(2) After the rate reduction in different places, the national rate difference will be narrowed, which is conducive to balancing the burden of enterprise payment, promoting the formation of a fair market competition environment, and also conducive to the gradual unification of national rates.

(3) After lowering the premium rate, the "threshold" of insurance payment will be lowered, which will help improve the enthusiasm of enterprises and employees and bring more employees into the employee pension insurance system.

How to reduce the provinces where the fund expenditure exceeds the income?

The central government will continue to increase financial subsidies and increase the central adjustment ratio of the basic old-age insurance fund for enterprise employees to help these areas ensure that pensions are paid in full and on time after reducing the rate.

How to adjust the payment base and why?

The payment base is an important parameter that affects the social security payment burden of enterprises and individuals. The first part of the "Proposal" is to make it clear that the average wage of employees in full-caliber urban units weighted by the average wage of employees in urban non-private units and urban private units is used as an indicator for verifying the upper and lower limits of the employee contribution base. Second, individual industrial and commercial households and flexible employees can participate in endowment insurance, and choose an appropriate payment base within the range of 60% to 300% of the average salary of employees in full-caliber urban units.

After adjustment, it can more reasonably reflect the actual average wage level of the insured, and the payment base of employees with lower wages can be reduced accordingly, thus reducing the payment burden. The payment burden of some enterprises can also be further reduced, which can benefit more.

What is the scale of fund central adjustment this year?

In 2019, the proportion of central fund transfers will increase to 3.5%. It is estimated that the annual fund transfer scale will be about 600 billion yuan, and the beneficiary provinces will benefit about 160 billion yuan.

Will pension payment be affected?

The overall income of the national endowment insurance fund exceeds its expenditure, and the accumulated balance keeps increasing, which will not cause the risk of pension payment on the whole and will not affect the timely and full payment of pensions. This year, the overall increase in the basic pension level of enterprise retirees is 5%, and it is estimated that about 100 million enterprise retirees will benefit.

How to collect social security fees?

In principle, the payment of the basic old-age insurance for enterprise employees and other types of insurance for enterprise employees will continue to be levied according to the current collection system, that is, the original social security collection will continue to be levied by social security, and the original tax collection will continue to be levied by tax, and the payment method will be stable, "mature and handed over to a province". The responsibility for the collection and management of social security fees of institutions and urban and rural residents was transferred to the tax authorities as scheduled.

Is the endowment insurance coordinated at the provincial level?

Some provinces have realized the unified collection and expenditure of endowment insurance funds at the provincial level, and most provinces have implemented the provincial-level adjustment system of endowment insurance funds, and the fund’s overall role in helping each other is still not fully exerted. There are still some problems in some provinces, such as the disunity of endowment insurance policies in the province, which need to be standardized step by step. By the end of 2020, the fund will be unified at the provincial level, laying a solid foundation for the national overall planning of endowment insurance.

In addition, the multiple dividends of social security reform will still be released intensively:

Fund investment and operation were accelerated.

Lu Aihong, spokesperson of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, recently introduced that the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, together with relevant departments, has made clear the list of provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) entrusted to invest in the basic endowment insurance fund for urban and rural residents in 2019 and 2020. By the end of the first quarter, of the 858 billion yuan entrusted investment contracts signed by 17 entrusted provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities), 624.869 billion yuan had been invested and operated.

Provincial overall planning of work-related injury insurance was accelerated.

Lu Aihong revealed that the next step will be to thoroughly study the issue of occupational injury protection for employees in new formats, study and formulate policies for small and micro private enterprises to give priority to industrial injury insurance, and promote industrial injury insurance to achieve a higher level of full coverage.

Improve the old-age insurance system for urban and rural residents

Lu Aihong introduced that the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security is still guiding all localities to improve the old-age insurance system for urban and rural residents, and establish a mechanism for determining the old-age insurance benefits for urban and rural residents and the normal adjustment of basic pension standards.

According to incomplete statistics, up to now, at least 16 provinces (regions) such as Shanxi, Hebei, Henan, Ningxia, Heilongjiang, Qinghai, Yunnan, Jiangxi, Guangxi, Jilin, Shandong, Fujian, Gansu, Hunan, Liaoning and Xinjiang have clearly established the normal adjustment mechanism of basic pensions.

Many places announced the bidding plan for the basic pension for urban and rural residents in 2019. Guangdong plans to raise the minimum standard of basic old-age insurance for urban and rural residents from 148 yuan per person per month to 170 yuan. In many places, it is suggested that the elderly residents in urban and rural areas who are 65 years old and above should be appropriately inclined. For long-term payment, more than the minimum payment period, the appropriate increase in the number of years of basic pension.

Continue to increase the proportion of central adjustment of endowment insurance funds

According to reports, this year, it will increase the central fund adjustment, improve the overall level, increase the transfer of state-owned assets to social security, and promote the full implementation of entrusted investment in the basic old-age insurance fund for urban and rural residents.

Since the second half of last year, the central government has implemented a central adjustment system for endowment insurance funds. "In the next step, we will continue to increase the central adjustment ratio of the basic endowment insurance fund for enterprise employees. This year, the central adjustment ratio will increase to 3.5%. It is estimated that the scale of the central adjustment fund will reach more than 600 billion yuan in the whole year, further alleviating the pressure on fund revenue and expenditure in some provinces." Lu Aihong said.

Increase the financial input of basic old-age insurance funds

Financial investment in basic old-age insurance at all levels will also increase. According to reports, this year, the central government’s budget for enterprise endowment insurance reached 528.5 billion yuan, up 9.4% year-on-year, and local finance also made corresponding funding arrangements.

Enlarge and strengthen the strategic reserve fund

In the next step, the strategic reserve fund will be enlarged and strengthened. Nie Mingjuan, director of the Department of Endowment Insurance of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, said that at present, the national social security fund has a strategic reserve of about 2 trillion yuan, and the work of transferring some state-owned capital to enrich the social security fund has started, and will continue to increase the transfer in the future.

Nine provinces, including Guangdong, started the entrusted investment of residents’ pension funds.

It is worth mentioning that Lu Aihong also revealed that the next step will be to actively promote the full implementation of entrusted investment in the basic old-age insurance fund for urban and rural residents.

It is understood that the General Office of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and the General Office of the Ministry of Finance have recently studied and determined Hebei, Jilin and Jiangsu.

In 2019, nine provinces including Guangdong started the entrusted investment of residents’ pension funds. Nine provinces are required to pay close attention to the investigation, fund calculation and other work, clarify the entrusted investment quota and submit specific implementation plans.

　　"With the rapid development of urban industries to the east, it is foreseeable that there will be great potential in JD.COM in the future. In the new round of urban development butterfly change, the potential of urban value can also be revealed from the amazing increase in housing prices in Beijing and Beijing East District in recent years. Efficient and convenient transportation configuration has also become one of the decisive factors for the rise in housing prices in Beijing East. " Zhang Ning, regional marketing chief of Pomegranate Group, said.

The establishment of multi-dimensional traffic facilities determines the layout of real estate around Beijing.

　　Looking at the "Heart of the City" Sub-center, Huanxin JD.COM’s Living Concept

　　The core area of JD.COM New Town has attracted a large number of people under the favorable conditions of industry and transportation. In order to make the city more livable, the development of JD.COM pays extra attention to the overall growth of urban facilities, and further integrates rich resources such as housing, commerce, schools, business districts and medical care to realize the value-added of the all-round life system.

Under the coordinated development plan and the favorable inflow of resources, JD.COM’s livability has also begun to appear." What’s more worth mentioning is that the core area of JD.COM New Town, where the household registration policy is relatively loose, will become a place for more Beijing’s overflow population after policies such as restricting settlement have been introduced in many places around Beijing.

　　As one of the top four housing enterprises in Beijing, Pomegranate Group developed the first Yulan Bay in Tongzhou, Beijing. As soon as it came out, it attracted wide attention, leading the Tongzhou plate, making the pomegranate brand resound through the Tongzhou market, leaving a legend that "one house is pomegranate for every 10 houses sold on average". This time, Pomegranate Group, in the name of a powerful brand with 13 years’ hard work and national reputation, once again added more weight to JD.COM area, settled in Yanjiao, and built the 11th Magnolia Bay in China with the help of the capital. On the mission of continuing to write glory, it once again revived the living concept of New North JD.COM.

Li Zhen, National Deputy Editor of Anjuke and Chief Analyst of Anjuke Real Estate Research Institute

　　Li Zhen, deputy editor-in-chief of Anjuke and chief analyst of Anjuke Real Estate Research Institute, believes that "under the principle of’ no speculation in housing’, the financial attributes of houses in the future will become weaker and weaker. At present, buyers pay more attention to the nature of products and living characteristics."

　　Pomegranate Yulan Bay, which is said to be "the best in the Bay, the best in the Bay", not only brings a sample of luxurious and elegant villa life to Tongzhou East, but also stands in the core area of JD.COM New Town, which is the first in the development of three northern counties, and brings together the rich living facilities of the two cities. On the basis of the development of world-class urban agglomerations, the 11th Yulan Bay in China will be better and better!

　　Ideological unity is the deepest, most lasting and most reliable guarantee of the party’s unity and unity. On December 21-22, 2023, the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee held a special democratic life meeting to study and implement the education of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader presided over the meeting and delivered an important speech. The general secretary stressed: "ideological unity is the basis of political unity and action unity. To maintain a high degree of consistency with the CPC Central Committee in political actions, we must first maintain a high degree of consistency with the CPC Central Committee in ideology. "

　　Paying attention to ideological party building and strengthening the party with theory are the distinctive features and glorious traditions of our party. On October 27th, 2022, after the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader came to the Seventh National Congress of the Communist Party of China to explore the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s winning code from the depths of history, and profoundly pointed out: "Politically, the Party unified the whole party under the banner of Mao Zedong and achieved unprecedented unity and unity of the Party." Looking back on the arduous and magnificent struggle of our party for more than a hundred years, one of the important reasons why it has been able to develop and grow through hardships and hardships is that it has always attached importance to building the party with ideas and strengthening the party with theory, so that the whole party has always maintained a unified thought, firm will, coordinated actions and strong combat effectiveness. At the educational work conference on studying and implementing the theme of Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era of the Supreme Leader, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized: "We are such a big party, leading such a big country, and shouldering the arduous task of leading the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country to achieve national prosperity and national rejuvenation. The whole party must unify its thinking, will and actions. How to realize the unity of thought, will and action of the whole party? The most fundamental thing is to arm the whole party with the basic theory of the party. " The new journey is an expedition full of glory and dreams, with great responsibility and glorious mission. We must unify our will and action with scientific theory.

　　Every step forward in theoretical innovation, theoretical armed forces will follow. As a contemporary China Marxism and a 21st century Marxism, Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought, the supreme leader in the new era, came into being and developed in the process of grasping the changes of the times and answering the topics of the times, and it is the essence of Chinese culture and China spirit. This important thought is rooted in the land of China and continues the Chinese civilization. With a brand-new theoretical vision, rich ideological connotations and profound theoretical viewpoints, it has deepened our understanding of communist party’s ruling law, socialist construction law and the development law of human society, deepened our understanding of the development law of Chinese civilization, and achieved a new leap in the era of Marxism in China. It is a powerful ideological weapon for us to understand and transform the world. It is necessary to profoundly understand the scientific system, core essence and practical requirements of this important thought, so as to grasp and integrate it as a whole, and to know its meaning better, and to know its nature better. Constantly enhance the political identity, ideological identity, theoretical identity and emotional identity of the party’s innovation theory, so as to be faithful and profound, accommodating and practical, persistent and persevering; Turn the world outlook, methodology, standpoint and method of this important thought into its own powerful ideological weapon and scientific thinking method, and promote the improvement of political ability and leadership ability with the improvement of ideological and theoretical level.

　　Only when you are sober in theory can you be firm in politics. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader profoundly pointed out: "Maintaining the centralized and unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee is concrete rather than abstract. First of all, it must be implemented in firmly safeguarding the authority of the CPC Central Committee and strengthening it ‘ Four consciousnesses ’ , firm ‘ Four self-confidences ’ , do ‘ Two maintenance ’ In actual action. " We should firmly support the "Two Establishments" and resolutely carry out the "Two Maintains" on the basis of a deep understanding of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, and deeply understand that "Two Establishments" are the greatest certainty, the greatest confidence and the greatest guarantee for the party and the people to deal with all uncertainties, which is of decisive significance for us to cope with various risk challenges and promote Chinese modernization, and to ensure political sobriety and firmness with theoretical sobriety and firmness. Ensure that the whole party maintains a high degree of unity in ideological and political actions with the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, and jointly forge the party into an invincible hard steel.

　　The value of theory lies in guiding practice, and the purpose of learning lies in application. If we persist in casting our souls with Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the new era and constantly improve the Marxist level of the whole party, we will surely March forward courageously towards the grand goal of building a strong country and national rejuvenation, and write a more splendid chapter for Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era.

Walking between villages in Wenshang County, Jining, Shandong Province, I saw flat and wide roads, standardized and tidy shops, green and yellow seedlings, clean and tidy courtyards … Autumn waters meet the sky, leaves are colorful, the most colorful season of the year is about to pass, and people are still lingering in the beautiful scenery.

This is Wenshang, Shandong Province, one of the sample counties for national rural construction evaluation in 2021. Organized by the housing and urban-rural construction departments of provinces and cities, the expert team made a comprehensive evaluation of the county around "4 core indicators, 18 decomposition targets and 71 evaluation indicators", and deeply and objectively evaluated the actual situation of local rural construction. The Wenshang County Party Committee and the county government actively used the evaluation results, and took targeted measures to solve the problems mentioned in the evaluation report, such as the construction of rural houses, the renovation of rural toilets, and the treatment of rural domestic garbage, and made every effort to fill the shortcomings and promote the continuous improvement of rural construction.

The old look of the dangerous house has changed, and the villagers are happy to put their hearts at ease.

Cai Shihua, a villager in Baita East Village, Yuanzhuang Town, feels like a warm autumn sun. At this time last year, he was at a loss. "Professional institutions to identify my house is a C-class dangerous house, I’m really sad. Because it was built too early, the home has never been renovated, and there is a big elm tree behind the house. It is particularly worrying that it rains heavily in summer and then catches up with the strong wind. "

The evaluation report shows that 42.8% of the villagers in Wenshang County believe that the self-built houses they live in have problems such as cracking, deformation and erosion. To this end, Wenshang County has strengthened the management of rural housing construction and accelerated the reinforcement, renovation or demolition of C and D dangerous houses. Rural planning and construction supervision and management offices have been set up in 15 towns and streets in the county, actively carrying out quality and safety supervision and management of self-built houses below the rural quota, strengthening on-site guidance and inspection of self-built houses, checking and reviewing the situation of rural houses according to the principle of "full coverage", setting up technical review teams, and doing a good job in rectifying hidden dangers. In view of the common safety hazards such as wall cracking and roof seepage in rural houses, the County Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau has specially organized a professional construction team to ensure that the reinforcement work is completed with good quality and quantity.

"The safety of people’s lives and property is the most important. Whether the house can be built firmly or not, the role of craftsmen is very crucial!" Gu Qiang, the person in charge of village and town construction of Wenshang County Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau, said that in order to improve the professional and technical literacy of artisans, the bureau entrusted professional institutions to carry out safety production training and organize assessment in the field of village and town construction throughout the county, and those who passed will be awarded a certificate of conformity. "We have incorporated local artisans into the management of rural planning and construction, and constantly consolidated the talent base of rural housing construction, safety control and style improvement."

At the beginning of this year, the local government reinforced the old house of Cai Shihua’s family, and the "new home" was soon completed. The Cai family, who moved back again, held a "picture of safety knowledge of self-built houses in rural areas" issued by the government, and their faces were filled with happy smiles. Cai Shihua said that they decided to put this picture in the most conspicuous position in the room. "Just to keep a souvenir, I can’t forget the government’s kindness."

"Small toilet reform" has become a "big springboard", and a happy life is rising.

According to the evaluation report, 51.2% of the villagers in Wenshang County are not satisfied with the treatment of manure and domestic sewage in the village. The local government issued the "Five-year Action Plan for Renovation and Improvement of Rural Human Settlements in Wenshang County (2021-2025)" to continuously promote the rural toilet revolution.

The relevant person in charge of the Office of the Leading Group for Rural Toilet Improvement in Wenshang County said that in order to further improve people’s satisfaction with toilet improvement, on the basis of fully respecting the wishes of the people, the county has included all the farmers who have not changed in the past but now want to change. In 2021, the county completed the renovation of 3,262 new toilets for willing households, and in 2022, 857 toilets were completed. The county finance continued to provide financial subsidies according to the standards of 900 yuan for each household. At the same time, in view of the typical problems such as "toilet maintenance, fecal liquid extraction and resource utilization", the county entrusts the follow-up management and protection services of rural household toilets and rural public toilets to a professional team, and relies on the existing facilities and equipment to provide free fecal liquid and fecal residue extraction for toilet users twice a year. The toilet maintenance service only charges working hours, which effectively solves the "worries" of the people to change toilets.

In terms of rural public toilets, the responsibilities and daily management system of cleaning staff have been clarified in order to achieve cleanliness and normal use. On the roadside of Bicun Village in Yuanzhuang Town, there is a small public toilet hidden by green plants. The paintings on the main wall are vivid and artistic, and they blend perfectly with the surrounding environment, which makes many villagers praise: "Who said that the toilet is dirty and poor?" This (toilet) at the head of the village is not only practical, but also beautiful and foreign! "

How to make effective use of dung liquid and dung residue has always been the focus of the industry. Wenshang County adapts measures to local conditions and village policies, and constantly innovates the follow-up resource utilization mode of dung liquid and dung residue. At present, it has explored a variety of resource utilization channels, which not only solves the problem of dumping at will, but also realizes resource utilization and forms a whole process chain of management, collection and use. "We cultivate 500 tons of earthworms with dung liquid and dung residue, and develop and construct ecological recycling projects. Now, the annual output of earthworm organic fertilizer and earthworm nutrient soil is 18,000 tons, with an annual output value of more than 10 million yuan." The relevant person in charge of Yiqiao Town said.

"Two times and four points" has achieved good results. Small coup for improving the environment

The clean and tidy road goes straight through Kongxin Village, Baishi Town, with brand-new farmhouses scattered on both sides, and gray and green trash cans are placed in front of every household. Zhang Guiying, a villager, pushed open the courtyard door and skillfully dumped kitchen waste and other garbage into different bins. "It is said on TV that garbage should be classified. When I am old, I can’t remember that it is too complicated, so I can remember it simply." She said with a smile.

The evaluation report shows that in 2021, only 6% of the natural villages in the county have implemented garbage sorting, and the expert team suggested to implement the pilot project of rural domestic garbage sorting. At present, this work is in the pilot stage, and Baishi Town and others have summarized the relevant experience of pilot exploration. The "twice quartering", a new model of rural domestic waste classification promoted by Wenshang County, entrusted the subdivision to "professional" sorters, which effectively improved the quality and efficiency of waste classification, improved the rural living environment, and made the people’s sense of happiness and acquisition continuously enhanced.

Li Xiancheng, a villager, is a trained sorter in Kongxin Village. His job is not only to collect garbage regularly, but also to guide the villagers to put the garbage into the garbage according to the classification of compostable garbage and other garbage, and then he will classify it again according to compostable garbage, recyclable garbage, non-recyclable garbage and harmful waste garbage. This method conforms to the present situation of villagers’ knowledge literacy and their living habits, so it is more grounded and accepted. "Sorted compostable garbage can turn waste into treasure. Through the patented process of’ compostable garbage+microbial strains’ fermentation, organic fertilizer is formed through composting and fertilizer making, which is not only simple in process, short in production cycle and high in fertilizer yield, but also optimistic in market sales prospect, which can effectively realize the resource utilization of rural organic garbage and develop rural green circular economy." Zhang Dongyong, director of the Environmental Protection Office of Wenshang County Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau, said that the villagers’ increasing acceptance and participation in the classification of rural domestic waste is evidence. This year, compared with the same period of last year, the natural villages in Wenshang County that classified rural domestic waste increased by 11.92%.

The new scene of Wen Mizunokami is slowly unfolding, which not only has autumn poetry, but also contains the expectations of the general public for the future of the countryside. Zhang Jingjing, member of the Standing Committee of Wenshang County Committee and deputy magistrate, said that rural construction evaluation is an important "physical examination" and "pulse" for local rural construction work, and it is a rare opportunity to help solve development problems, open up development ideas and improve work standards. "We will seize the opportunity of rural construction evaluation, make rural construction achievements truly benefit the people in Wenshang, and contribute to the strength of Wenshang in building a’ model for revitalizing Qilu in rural areas’ and implementing the national strategy of the Yellow River."

　　Recruiting talents, Xi ‘an, Shaanxi, a major town in the west, has made many brilliant moves in recent years.

　　The Paper learned from the column "Municipal Government Documents" in official website of Xi ‘an Municipal Government that Xi ‘an issued a document entitled "Notice of Xi ‘an Municipal People’s Government on Hiring Tang Kai and Li Xiaojiang as Consultants of the Municipal Government" on June 8th.

　　According to the document, the Xi ‘an Municipal Government has decided to hire two experts, Tang Kai, President of China Urban Planning Association and former Chief Planner of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, Li Xiaojiang, Vice President of China Urban Planning Association and former President of China Urban Planning and Design Institute, as urban planning and construction consultants of the Xi ‘an Municipal People’s Government.

　　As for the reasons for hiring, the above-mentioned documents stated that it was to "effectively implement the spirit of the 13th Party Congress, learn from the experience of advanced urban development, speed up the urban development and construction of our city, listen to the opinions and suggestions of professionals on the urban planning and construction of our city, and improve the scientific decision-making level of the government".

　　In addition, the document also stated that hiring urban planning and construction consultants is an important measure to comprehensively improve the level of urban planning and construction in Xi’ an. The contact and service of urban planning and construction consultants shall be the responsibility of the Municipal Planning Bureau. All districts, counties, development zones and departments should actively strengthen communication with the urban planning and construction consultants hired, consult modestly, and promote the sound and rapid development of urban planning and construction in Xi ‘an.

　　Coincidentally, just four days later, on June 12th, Xi ‘an Municipal Government issued the document "Notice of Xi ‘an Municipal People’s Government on Hiring Lei Jun, Zhao Weiguo, Zhang Yiming and Yang Zongkai as Science and Technology Advisers of the Municipal Government", this time aiming at the big coffee in the domestic science and technology field.

　　According to the document, "In order to further promote innovation-driven development, give full play to the leading and leading role of experts in the economic and social development of our city, and form an innovation-driven development system with Xi ‘an characteristics, after research, we decided to hire four experts, including Lei Jun, vice chairman of the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce, chairman and CEO of Xiaomi Technology, Zhao Weiguo, chairman and CEO of Ziguang Group, Zhang Yiming, founder and CEO of Beijing ByteDance Technology Co., Ltd., and Yang Zongkai, president of xidian university, as science and technology consultants of Xi ‘an Municipal People’s Government."

　　Different from the document released on the 8th, the document on the 12th will be published in a unified way by contacting the municipal leaders of science and technology consultants: "The municipal contact leader of Lei Jun consultant is Wang Wenzhan, vice chairman of the CPPCC, the municipal contact leader of Zhao Weiguo consultant is Li Hongtao, president of the Municipal Intermediate People’s Court, the municipal contact leader of Zhang Yiming consultant is Zhang Minsheng, procurator-general of the Municipal People’s Procuratorate, and the municipal contact leader of Yang Zongkai consultant is Hu Ze, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and commander of Xi ‘an Garrison."

　　For the daily contact and service work of science and technology consultants, the Xi ‘an Municipal Government stated in the document that the Municipal Science and Technology Bureau is responsible for it.

　　The Paper reporter found that according to the documents released by official website of Xi ‘an Municipal Government, Xi ‘an has already "pocketed" a large number of big coffees from various domestic industries by using the channel of "municipal government consultants".

　　For example, in February 2017, the website of Xi ‘an Municipal Government released a message. After research, it was decided to hire Xu Guanju (vice chairman of the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce and chairman of Chuanhua Group), Nan Cunhui (chairman of Zhejiang Federation of Industry and Commerce and chairman of Zhengtai Group), Wang Licheng (vice chairman of Zhejiang Federation of Industry and Commerce and chairman of Huali Group), Wang Jianyi (vice chairman of Zhejiang Federation of Industry and Commerce and chairman of the board of directors of Fortis Group), Li Shufu (chairman of Geely Group) and others.

　　It is worth mentioning that the above six entrepreneurs are well-known Zhejiang businessmen. Apart from business tycoons, consultants of Xi ‘an municipal government can’t leave behind local "think tanks".

　　For example, the Notice of Xi ‘an Municipal People’s Government on Hiring Wang Shuguo as the Municipal Government’s Science and Technology Consultant issued by Xi ‘an Municipal Government on August 18, 2017 disclosed that Wang Shuguo, President of Xi ‘an Jiaotong University, Wang Jinsong, President of Northwestern Polytechnical University, Zheng Xiaojing, President of xidian university, Guo Lihong, President of Chang ‘an University, Cheng Guangxu, President of Shaanxi Normal University, Zhao Wei, Director of Xi ‘an Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Zhang Pingxiang, President of Northwest Nonferrous Metals Research Institute, and Feng Jun, Chairman of Patriot Group,

　　In addition, according to a report by Xi ‘an News Network in November 2017, the reporter learned from the municipal government that after research, it was decided to hire Dong Mingzhu, Chairman of Gree Electric Co., Ltd., Li Hejun, Chairman and CEO of Hanergy Holding Group, He Shengqiang, General Manager of Aviation Industry Xifei, and Liu Ruopeng, President of Shenzhen Guangqi Institute of Advanced Technology, as economic advisers of Xi ‘an Municipal People’s Government.

　　On February 9, 2018, official website, the government of Xi ‘an, released a message and decided to hire Ma Huateng, Chairman and CEO of Shenzhen Tencent Computer System Co., Ltd., as the economic adviser of Xi ‘an Municipal People’s Government.

　　On February 24, 2018, the Xi ‘an Municipal Government announced in official website that it decided to hire Professor Zou Dating of Zhejiang University as the science and technology consultant of the Xi ‘an Municipal People’s Government. Zou Dating’s municipal contact leaders are Li Yi, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, secretary of the Party Working Committee of the High-tech Zone and secretary of the Party Working Committee of the Aerospace Base.

　　Not only in the field of science, education and economy, but also in the field of culture have become members of the advisory team of Xi ‘an municipal government.

　　For example, on April 27, 2018, Xi ‘an Evening News published a list of cultural consultants of Xi ‘an Municipal People’s Government. The five hired consultants were: Yu Qiuyu, Dean of Qiuyu College of China Academy of Art, Huang Qiaoling, Chairman of Song Cheng Performing Arts Development Co., Ltd., Zhang Jiayi, a famous actor, Tian Ming, CEO of Star Culture, and Bai Yansheng, a famous host.

　　Recently, people who can’t eat because of illness and fever abound. What should I do in this situation? Do you want to avoid all kinds of high protein food? Today, let’s talk about fever and nutrition.

　　Why don’t doctors let some patients with fever eat more high protein foods?

　　In fact, this proposal is not completely unreasonable.

　　First of all, eating too much food in protein may lead to an increase in body heat dissipation and an increase in inflammatory reaction, and doctors may be worried that it will affect their health. For example, some children will become more inflamed after eating beef and mutton.

　　Secondly, when the patient has a high fever, his appetite is poor and his digestion and absorption ability is reduced. Compared with soft starchy foods, large pieces of beef, whole boiled eggs and other foods are much more difficult to digest. They need more stomach acid, more protease and more bile to help them.

　　Thirdly, food intolerance and other adverse reactions are more likely to occur in the disease state. When you have a fever, not only does the body’s digestion and absorption ability decrease, but the intestine may also be inflamed, the barrier function decreases, and the microbial balance is disordered. Some undigested products enter the body, which may lead to adverse reactions.

　　For example, some foods are fine when eaten at ordinary times, and they will be uncomfortable when they are sick. For another example, some children are sensitive to high-quality protein foods such as chicken, eggs and milk when they have a fever, and cough after eating them, or the sputum in their throats will increase and they will gasp after eating them, and so on.

　　Folk say that "fish makes fire and meat produces phlegm" can probably be explained by these reasons, but these adverse reactions are not limited to animal food. If you eat dried nuts, fried peanuts, potato chips, fried beans and other indigestible plant foods, you may also have adverse reactions.

　　Therefore, it is generally correct to give priority to digestible starchy foods when you have a fever and loss of appetite.

　　However, it should also be noted that, on the other hand, being hungry for several days in a row is not conducive to physical recovery. Especially at present, it is also a very nutritious thing to continue the war with mycoplasma virus and various bacteria. If you really can’t eat for two or three days or even longer, just drink some soup, or eat too little although you eat some rice, it will hinder your recovery.

　　What do fever patients need to supplement in their diet?

　　What to eat depends mainly on the patient’s appetite. On the premise that the food is fresh and nutritious, if they really want to eat it, they don’t have to stop it deliberately. If you don’t want to eat, you should find ways to supplement energy, protein and multivitamins.

　　1. Eat as much staple food as possible.

　　Staple food is the main source of energy. If you don’t eat enough staple food, even if protein eats enough, it will be regarded as a waste of heat and won’t really make up for the body. If you can’t eat rice and steamed bread, you can also eat thick rice porridge, soft noodle soup, mashed potatoes, yam paste, etc. You might as well eat it several times a day. At this time, as long as it is easy to digest food and the patient can eat it, you can try it.

　　2. Add diversified ingredients to the staple food within the range acceptable to patients.

　　Such as vegetables, fruits, milk and bean products. If you can’t eat fruits and vegetables directly, you can steam them, stew them soft, cut them into pieces, and press them into mud. You can chop up the leaves and cook them in soft soup or porridge.

　　3. protein food should be supplemented step by step.

　　When you lose your appetite, don’t directly give large pieces of meat, whole boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, etc. For example, eggs can be made into egg flowers or custard first, meat can be chopped into minced meat, and it can also be stewed in a pressure cooker or electric cooker. If you really don’t want to eat meat, you can drink the oil-free broth first, and then try to add the stewed minced meat to porridge and noodle soup.

　　According to the patient’s appetite, from less to more, slowly increase protein food, and gradually increase the variety. It is not too late to eat "hard dishes" until your appetite is better and your digestion ability is stronger.

　　4. If the food intake continues to be seriously insufficient, some nutritious products can be supplemented.

　　Including protein powder products. These products can be added to porridge, yam paste and lotus root paste to make semi-liquid food. In the case of indigestion, you can also consult professionals to use products that help digestion and benefit the gastrointestinal tract, such as compound digestive enzyme products and probiotic products.

　　5. Appropriate vitamin supplementation

　　The consumption of vitamins increases in the process of fever, which can supplement vitamins C and B, as well as vitamins A and D. In the process of disease stress and inflammatory reaction, the consumption of vitamin C will increase; When you have a fever, the metabolic rate is accelerated, the energy consumption is increased, and the demand for B vitamins will also increase.

　　In addition, vitamin D is also very important for normal disease resistance, and vitamin A is not only necessary for anti-inflammatory reaction, but also essential for the repair of respiratory tissue injury. Patients may feel uncomfortable after taking large compound nutrient pills, so they can use small tablets and capsules, as well as powdered nutritional supplements.

　　6. Stay away from foods with low nutritional value, indigestion, allergies and intolerance.

　　For example, it is necessary to avoid fried, fried and smoked foods, too hard foods and processed foods with high sugar and oil. Foods that are easily allergic or intolerant should also be avoided.

　　7. Seasoning is not greasy or irritating, but attention should be paid to promoting appetite

　　As long as the blood pressure is basically normal, there is nothing wrong with adding a little salt, chicken essence and monosodium glutamate at this time. Because after a fever and sweating, it is necessary to supplement electrolytes such as sodium salts and amino acids. Appropriate addition of sodium salt is beneficial to the production of gastric acid; Adding umami amino acids can increase the motivation of intestinal cells and increase the appetite of patients.

　　Several delicious and digestible semi-liquid recipes

　　If your family has a poor appetite and can’t figure out what to eat at the moment, here are some semi-liquid food choices that are easy to digest and delicious for your reference:

　　1. Naixiang Yam Mud

　　Steaming soft yam, grinding into mud, and adding milk powder to make milky yam mud. You can try soy milk powder if you can’t eat milk powder. If you don’t have yam, you can also try mashed potatoes. If you want to eat salty, add a little salt or chicken essence and a few drops of sesame oil to make salted mashed potatoes.

　　2. Yogurt lotus root starch is soft and frozen

　　Lotus root starch washed with hot water, mixed with cold yogurt, and stirred into a semi-frozen state. Nutritional supplements such as total nutritional powder can also be added. If it is only lotus root starch itself, the nutritional value is too low.

　　3. Yogurt mash soup

　　Mix the hot mash into the cold yogurt and stir well to warm the yogurt.

　　4. Fried rice in egg congee

　　Some areas have the habit of eating fried rice. You can cook porridge with fried brown rice, add a little salt, add a little egg liquid, and stir it into fine egg flowers.

　　5. Green vegetables, tofu pudding and millet porridge

　　Add half a spoonful of sesame oil to the soft boiled millet porridge, cut one into finely chopped vegetables, add two spoonfuls of smashed lactone tofu, cook together for a few minutes, and finally add some salt and chicken essence.

　　6. Soft noodles with chopped green vegetables, chicken soup and egg flowers

　　People who like to eat pasta can use degreased chicken soup, add fine noodles, cook into soft hot soup noodles, and add egg flowers and chopped vegetables.

　　7. winter melon soup, chopped green vegetables and wonton

　　Use degreased chicken soup, add thin slices of wax gourd and cook for a few minutes, add small wonton with thin skin and chopped green vegetables and cook until soft.

　　8. Hawthorn jujube apple pear soup

　　A few slices of dried hawthorn or two hawthorns, a few dates with stones removed, an apple with stones removed and diced, a pear with stones removed and diced, add half a bowl of water, and cook them in a pressure cooker with a quick porridge cooking procedure. Or put the lid on the electric cooker and simmer. Less water, less sugar, let the water in the fruit seep out and become soup.

Biden has another big move!

On Thursday (August 15th) local time, Biden’s government announced that it had reached a "historic" agreement with pharmaceutical companies. According to the data released by the White House, the price reduction of the first 10 drugs included in the negotiations ranged from 38% to 79%. On the same day, US President Biden and Vice President Harris held their first joint activity since Biden withdrew from the 2024 election. Biden said at the event: "We finally beat the big pharmaceutical companies."

At the same time, another news related to Biden also attracted attention. According to a number of US media reports, a few days ago, hundreds of lawyers from all over the world jointly sent a letter to US President Biden, calling on the United States to stop using unilateral economic sanctions, saying that this tool is equivalent to collective punishment of civilians and violates international law.

In the joint letter, lawyers, legal organizations and scholars condemned the United States’ increasing reliance on sanctions to punish and intimidate its opponents, and said that these measures may lead to economic instability, hunger and the reduction of basic commodities such as medicines. The letter pointed out: "At present, hundreds of millions of people live under the extensive economic sanctions imposed by the United States in some form."

Biden’s government announced heavily

On Thursday (August 15th) local time, Biden’s government announced that it had reached a "historic" agreement with pharmaceutical companies, and the negotiated new drug price could save Medicare a net of about $6 billion by 2026. In addition, the new drug price will save the insured $1.5 billion in out-of-pocket expenses.

According to the data released by the White House, the price reduction of the first 10 drugs included in the negotiations ranged from 38% to 79%. Among them, the biggest drop was Merck’s hypoglycemic drug Januvia, whose price dropped from $527 to $113 in 30 days, while Novo Nordisk’s insulin injection pen Novo Horizo, whose monthly medication cost also dropped from $495 to $119.

According to media reports, this is part of a plan that Biden praised on Thursday, aimed at easing anger over high prices before the November election. The Inflation Reduction Act signed by Biden was signed into law in 2022, which was the first bill to allow medical insurance to negotiate the price of some of the most expensive drugs covering 66 million people in the plan.

On Thursday, US President Biden and Vice President Harris held their first joint activity since Biden withdrew from the 2024 election, and supported her to replace him on the Democratic ballot.

"We know that this is not only about health care, but also about your dignity," Biden said of the policy. "This is about inner peace. This is related to security. This is about taking care of your family. This is to give people more breathing space. " Biden said that they "just started" and that he and Harris "will continue to fight against big pharmaceutical companies". He said: "I played too hard. I can’t give in now. We won’t back down. “

Reuters said that although this was an official event, Biden turned his speech in the gymnasium into a de facto campaign rally, calling Harris a "hellish president" and criticizing Republicans for not supporting the right of medical insurance to negotiate drug pricing.

The Republican House leadership, including House Speaker Mike Johnson, described this power as "price manipulation" in a statement. Their prescription drug price manipulation plan only accomplished two things: pushing up the cost of health care and smashing American medical innovation.

Hundreds of lawyers signed a letter to Biden.

A few days ago, Bloomberg, CommonDreams and other media reported that dozens of legal organizations from all over the world, as well as more than 200 lawyers and scholars jointly sent a letter to US President Biden, urging the US government to end unilateral economic sanctions, saying that such sanctions constitute a collective punishment for civilians and are illegal under international law.

The signatories of this letter include human rights lawyers, American National Bar Association, European Lawyers Association for Democracy and World Human Rights, and law professors. The signer said in the letter: "Collective punishment is the standard practice of American foreign policy today, which takes the form of extensive unilateral economic and financial sanctions." So far, the United States has imposed more unilateral economic sanctions than any other country in the world. They pointed out that although the use of sanctions is different from conventional warfare, its collective impact on civilians may be equally indiscriminate, punitive and fatal.

The letter pointed out: "At present, hundreds of millions of people live under the extensive economic sanctions imposed by the United States in some form, including ordinary people in countries such as Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria and Venezuela. These measures may cause serious and extensive harm to civilians. Extensive economic sanctions may trigger and prolong the economic crisis, hinder access to basic commodities such as food, fuel and medicine, and increase poverty, hunger, disease and even mortality, especially for children. This situation in turn tends to promote large-scale immigration. "

According to the letter, the United States has imposed a severe economic embargo on Cuba for more than 60 years, which has adversely affected all economic sectors of the country and seriously restricted Cubans’ access to basic necessities such as food, fuel and medicine. In the past 32 years, United Nations Member States have overwhelmingly opposed the United States embargo against Cuba. Last year’s vote was 187-2, and only the United States and Israel were against it.

It is understood that after the victory of the Cuban revolution in 1959, the US government announced the breaking of diplomatic relations with Cuba in 1961 and began to impose a comprehensive embargo on Cuba in 1962. Since 1992, the United Nations General Assembly has passed resolutions with overwhelming votes for dozens of consecutive times, demanding that the United States end its economic and financial blockade and trade embargo against Cuba. Bruno Rodriguez Parrilla, Cuba’s foreign minister, once criticized the decades-long American trade embargo against Cuba as "endless" like a hurricane, which brought huge economic losses and humanitarian disasters to Cuba. The Cuban Ministry of Foreign Affairs also said that the United States has exerted extreme pressure on Cuba in recent years and strengthened its economic and financial blockade and trade embargo against Cuba, which is the root cause of the recent sharp increase in illegal immigration of Cubans to the United States; If the United States wants to stop the tide of illegal immigration, it must cancel the economic blockade that "makes life difficult for Cubans".

The signer said that according to the resolutions of the UN General Assembly and the UN Human Rights Council, unilateral sanctions are suspected of violating the UN Charter. They also cited the Fourth Geneva Convention, which held that collective punishment constituted a war crime. The signatory added: "As a member of the legal profession, we call on the United States to abide by the existing international law and stop using extensive unilateral coercive measures. Seventy-five years after the signing of the Geneva Conventions, collective punishment must end. "

American sanctions and the Middle East crisis

It is worth noting that the current Middle East crisis is also related to the US sanctions against Iran.

On November 7, last year, the White House issued a statement extending the national emergency against Iran in an executive order signed by the United States on November 14, 1979 for one year until November 14, 2024. This also means that the economic sanctions imposed by the United States on Iran continue to be extended.

On June 27th this year, the State Council issued a statement announcing sanctions against entities and ships involved in Iranian oil and petrochemical trade. Not only that, but the United States and the West are also looking for excuses to increase sanctions against Iran.

After the overall escalation of the Ukrainian crisis, the United States and Europe accused Iran of providing drones and missiles to Russia; The EU believes that there is Iranian support behind the Yemeni Houthi armed forces in the Red Sea region. According to this, the Council of the European Union announced in May this year to expand the scope of sanctions against Iran, involving drones and missiles.

According to public information, Iran is the second largest natural gas reserve country and the third largest oil reserve country in the world. However, after decades of sanctions, Iran’s economy and society have been completely hit. According to data released by the World Bank, nearly 10 million Iranians fell into poverty in the first decade of the 21st century. The loss of oil revenue has led to the continuous growth of Iranian government debt and state-owned enterprise debt. In addition, the United States and the West imposed a technical blockade on Iran through sanctions. United Nations human rights experts have issued a statement saying that US sanctions forced the Iranian people to extend the use of old vehicles with low fuel efficiency, while the United States also prevented other countries from providing air pollution control technology to Iran, which endangered the health of the Iranian people.

Recently, the situation in the Middle East has become tense again. On August 12th, local time, senior US officials said that Iran would launch a "major" attack on Israel "or within this week". On the same day, Iranian President Massoud Pezehiqiyan said in a telephone conversation with German Chancellor Angela Scholz that Iran believes that it has the right to respond to "aggressors" according to international rules. Petrezhiqiyan said that the Israeli government’s continued "genocide" in Gaza and "terrorist acts" in other countries violated international law and posed a serious challenge to regional security and global peace in West Asia.
