And I expect all delegates present to bring forward your opinions freely. 

  1. Main Work in 2014 
  
  In 2014, under the leadership of the municipal committee of the Communist Party of China, the standing committee of the People's Congress in Hengyang carefully implemented the spirit of the 18th Third and Fourth Plenary session and a series of important speech given by Xi Jinping, the general secretary, centered strictly on the overall situation of the work citywide, stay closely with the members of people's congress, fully performed their duties and strive hard to make positive contribution to the economic society, democracy and legal system construction in Hengyang.

We have also appointed and dismissed people working for State organs for 61 times.

  2014 is a rather extraordinary year in the history of the Standing Committee of Municipal People's Congress, with all sectors in our society paying high attention to us. Faced with a complex situation, the Standing Committee considered the situation carefully and responded in an easy way with no power misused to turn its state of being passive into active, from being negative into positive and start a new situation for the work of people's congress.

  Scheme a new plan for development. The leading group of the new standing committee, together with its members should shoulder the great mission entrusted by history and people during this special period. Over the past year, through studying the briefing of some relevant situation about the case of “the ruin of election” and a series of important speech given by president Xi Jinping, implementing the meeting spirit of the 60th anniversary celebration of the central committee, provincial committee, and municipal committee for the establishment of people's congress, learning the guiding report with regard to the insistence on the socialism with Chinese characteristics and its perfection, and promoting basic education of political system, they have gained clearer ideas about the work orientation of local people's congress: the work of people's congress can only ensure the political direction correctness with the insist on Party leadership ; we can only ensure an endless power source for our career when we are always ready to protect the fundamental interests of the mass; and we can ensure a smooth promotion for different works running within legal system when we keep handling affairs with a sensitive legal awareness. At the beginning of the year, the standing committee passed the general requirement of “working vigorously in high spirit with joint efforts” , raised a general thought of “making decisions with a view to fundamental elements, aiming at weak points to conduct supervision, reinforcing quality with the fulfillment of duties guaranteed, and set up new images by improving work style”, through making careful judgments about current situation, checking our status cautiously, and thinking of correspondent solutions, which plays a vital role in the work planning for the standing committee in this new historical context, and shows the new pattern and vision of the our work.
 
  Set up new images of the government. To show the new vitality of the work of people's congress in our city and the new look of the members and workers of the people's congress, to let people citywide feel the respect for their will, care for their actual conditions, and protection for their rights from people's congress at all levels and its standing committees, the standing committee decided to launch practical activities with the theme of “fulfilling duties with hearts staying close with mass” with the main content of “3 Connections, 3 Aids, and 3 Assessments” and establish a “Serving People Day” and a “Director Reception Day” with the date fixed on June 25th (The opening date for the first session of the 1st People's Congress in Hengyang was on June 25th, 1954.). And people in charge of the standing committee take the lead in meeting with the mass, visiting representatives, and penetrating into grassroots, which greatly arouses the passion of members and workers of people's congress to serve our people. Many livelihood practical work linked closely with people's lives have got done, such as urban water logging, the launch of environmental-friendly buses, food security and etc.. A large number of courageous, selfless and responsible members have lived up to their solemn promises that “I will do whatever people really need without failing their trusts”. The deeds of the outstanding members were highly praised at the speech contest within the system of the municipal people's congress, and it has become a stream of great power to push forward the work for people's congress. It has been proved through practices that the members and workers of our municipal people's congress is a trustworthy team equipped with brilliant fighting capacity, high spirit and full vigor.

  Strive for new accomplishments. At the early period for the new leading group of the standing committee to fulfill their duties, they devoted themselves to building Hengyang characteristics, forming unique Hengyang brand, and creating Hengyang mode for the innovation of the work of local people's congress. Taking the implementation of the “perfection of system for representatives to connect with people ” raised at the 18th National People's Congress as a breakthrough, the standing committee has built 232 work stations for members to connect with the mass within the institutions on levels of city, county, and township, paved a new path for representatives to fulfill their duties, and set up a bridge that allows people's appeals to walk through. Since the establishment of the station, over 2,000 representatives has come to the work stations to meet with our people for over 150,000 times, collected and reported over 2,200 pieces of suggestions, and solved 1016 problems. Some mainstream media, like People's Daily, Xinhua News Agency, Hunan Daily and etc. has also given detailed accounts about it. The standing committee of provincial sprovincial promotion meeting for the work of members of people's congress connecting with the mass to introduce and promote the “Hengyang Experience” to the whole province.

  Promote a steady development in economy. The first thing is that we should pay more attention on the construction of key projects. The standing committee persist in regular scheduling and supervising to those key projects it connects, and organize part of the members to conduct investigation and inspection, learn about the difficulties and problems existing during the construction, and find out solutions to them in time. The director meeting of the standing committee listened to the report on the construction status of Hengshan Science & Technology City, organized some members to go to other places in China to study, and came up with some very important suggestions with regard to the planning, financing, industries layout and etc.. To release some pressure of financial funds, they have agreed that people's government can get their funds from financial institutes to invest in the development and construction of New Binjiang District and Chuanshan Road. The second is to reinforce the double-check of financial planning. The standing committee suggested that municipal people's government should carefully judge the current situation and work positively at changing mode, adjusting structure, and thriving the projects with focus on the reality that the economy in our city is suffering from a downturn with great pressure, which positively promoted the accomplishment of the targets throughout the year. When checking financial budget and final accounts, they demand that people's government should grasp opportunities to cultivate revenue sources, strengthen the management with finance and tax collection, optimize expenditure structure, and deepen the finance and tax reform, and attach great importance to the management of special fund, department budgets, and livelihood budgets. To make sure that problems pointed out in the auditing report are properly settled, the standing committee surveyed the reform and implementation status of the marine bureau and some other units, and supervised and urged the relevant units to strictly deal with people who have misbehaved during their work. The third is to promote the modern agriculture development. The standing committee organized and launched investigation about the  land transferring work and the development situation of the business entity of new agriculture. And with regard to the problems existing in aspects like the procedure, service, environment, financing, and etc. of the rural land transferring in our city, they demand municipal people's government to correctly direct, standardize, and supervise the land transferring work. On the basis of a successful pilot, municipal people's government promote the work “1 transferring and 5 services” citywide. To develop the business entity of new agriculture, they also demand the government to optimize their services, reinforce the power of financial and credit support, and strengthen the team building for talents to make various business entities of new agriculture in our city keep growing stronger and stronger. 
 
  Spare no effort to promote the better-off of the livelihood of people in Hengyang. The first thing is to pay high attention to food security and drug security. The standing committee organized the law enforcement group to inspected 41 corporations of food and drug production, procession, sale, and catering in total, and demand municipal government to speed up the food and drug detection center construction and the promotion of institutional and systematic reform of food and drug, strengthen the supervision power, and reinforce the security awareness of all our citizens.

  The third is to pay great attention to the cure and prevention of air pollution. Under the guidance of the standing committee of the provincial people's congress, our standing committee inspected the implementation situation of the Air Pollution Prevention Act with legal means. They demanded that the people's government should raise the standard for the admittance of industries and environment strictly, step up canceling those with low capacity, promote clean energy, lay emphasis on the treatment of industrial flue gas pollution, vehicle exhaust pollution, construction dust pollution and etc., and reinforce the construction of 3 abilities, including supervision ability, law enforcement and supervision ability, and emergency response capacity. Municipal people's government printed and distributed the Embodiment for Air Pollution Prevention Action Plan In Hengyang. 6 automatic air quality detection centers within urban area have already been in service. And in order to purify air and reduce pollution, the standing committee specially made a decision with regard to the fireworks prohibition in our city area, and urged the government to officially put it into effect from January 1st, 2015. The fourth is to show deep concern for social vulnerable group. They have organized 12 standing committees of the people's congress on city, district, and county levels to connect exact points with the overall situation through the combination of the way of crossing key investigations and that of the deputies' duty fulfillment investigation and self check and correction, conduct comprehensive survey about the work of rural minimum security citywide, raised suggestions toward the government with regard to relevant problems, and supervised and urged them to correct and solve these problems in limited time. They also launched the program to "support poor family to recover children's hearing” , and has helped 20 poor deaf children to regain their hearing and language abilities by giving them cohear implant operations and rehabilitation training.
 
  Keep pushing forward the rule the municipality according to law in Hengyang. The first thing is to promote the implementation and exercise of law by law enforcement survey. The standing committee exercised regular supervision on the implementation situation of the Urban and Rural Planning Law, and pointed out during the annual consideration and deliberation on urban and rural planning that to consummate the urban and rural planning system, harden the planning enforcement, and strengthen the force of publicity of planning. The revision of the overall urban planning has passed the examine at the joint review meeting among departments. The formation of controllable detailed planning and special planning has got strengthened. And the force in controlling the demolition of illegal construction has also been increased. During the special survey about the implementation of “Urban Greening Act” and “Implementation Ways of ‘Urban Greening Act’ In Hunan”, the standing committee came up with the implementation of plan control and restriction of green area in Hengyang, to improve the maintenance level for greening, and step up to live up to suggestions, such as constructing a national garden city, and etc.. According to the unified arrangements for the standing committee of people's congress at higher level, they have carried out law enforcement inspection and survey toward laws and regulations, such as Law of Protection Minors, Tourism Law, Patent Law, Law on Protection of Consumer Rights, Law on Protection of Taiwan Compatriots' Investments, and etc.. The second is to protect justice by judicial supervision. According to changes in situation and policies, they revised and consummated the temporary methods for judicial supervision, and selected and hired 20 law enforcement supervisors from deputies of the municipal people's government to be sent to municipal judicial office together. They organized and conducted survey about the implementation situation of Civil Procedure Law, and demand municipal intermediate people's court to make every effort to crack difficulties in case filing and enforcement. To prevent unjust cases from happening, they conducted a special survey about the investigating and supervision work information of the procuratorial organs and demand them to properly implement the Suggestions (Implementation Measures) on Work Connection Between Administrative Law Enforcement & Criminal Justice issued by the State Council (Hunan province), reinforce the connection with public security organs, establish a platform to share criminal case information, and strengthen the supervision of case filing and investigation events. The third is to promote a harmonious society by reading petition letters. Sticking to the principle of “people should always go back home, while problems should always get solved”, they send the problems included in those petition letters to relevant units to solve, debriefed work status to upper levels, and tracked their outcome and urged those relevant units to report their achievements to the leaders to make sure each affair can both get solved and replied. And as to some cases involving lawsuits, they guided both parties to report their problems to judicial organs according to the new petition letter work policy. There are 4181 times of visits in the form of petitions letters from the mass accepted by deputies of people's congress in 2014 with a drop of  11% over the same period of the previous year.
 
  Besides, they also carefully reviewed 32 standard documents and managed to protect the unification of law and regulation. The work experience and methods of our city got promoted at the provincial work review forum about the standard documents records within people's congress system. They also established a training class for the new Budget Law to promote the standardization, systematization and legalization of the financial budget work citywide.

  (3)Enhance work basis to create and secure a positive environment for duty fulfillment of deputies.
 
  The standing committee always organize the deputy work with focus as basic work, keep consummating service security mechanism, innovate work carrier, and play the leading role of deputies well. 

  Attach importance to training for the improvement of deputies' duty fulfilling ability. The standing committee took the work of training members of he people's congress very seriously, and has submitted the Suggestions to Reinforcing Deputies' Learning and Training Work by CPC Group of Standing Committee of Municipal People's Congress in Hengyang (trial version) to the municipal committee for repost. The organization has given training to newly-appointed deputies who attended the provincial people's congress, and also trained members from provincial people' congress and the whole municipal members about the duties required by convening videophone meeting. At the mean time, they also managed to upgrade the duty fulfillment ability of those members in forms of having them attend session of the standing committee, supervise the implementation of measures proposed, take part in the inspection of law enforcement and survey and etc..

  Launch activities on a frequent basis to widen the channels for the members to participate in political affairs. They organized national and provincial delegation in Hengyang and part of municipal people' s congress members to situations of development of economy transition, food and drug safety, standardization of cooperation between agriculture and machines, the construction of agriculture industrialization, key projects of urban infrastructure, and facilities for sewage treatment, and etc.. Delegations of the leading organization in Hengyang surveyed and inspected the rural power supply and transforming situation of rural power network in Hengyang, and advised government at different levels to increase the investment in the project of upgrading and transforming rural power network to make sure that no village remained in need of transformation. They also organized part of the people's congress members to join an advise-seek TV program, “Let People Talk”, to encourage the members to talk real matters and tell truth, and promote the improvement work of our government.

  Pay attention to platform construction to strengthen duty fulfillment responsibility of the members. To support and secure a close connection between the members of people's congress and the mass, the standing committee established a grid management system for the members' duty fulfillment situation. Based on the homepage of the standing committee of our people's congress, they also opened a management system for the personal information of the members and a handling system for the members to give suggestions with a view to conducting online acceptance, job deliver, and reply toward suggestions raised during inter-sessional period, achieving the gridding, informatization, and systematization of members' duty fulfillment management, and purring the members to pay more attention to the development, livelihood issues and social hot spots. They have also started columns in the mainstream media of our city to increase the promotion reports about the duty fulfillment activity of the members and create a positive environment for the society to trust members, respect members, and depend on members.
 
  Strengthen supervision to implement suggestions proposed by the members. During the 3rd session of the 14th municipal people's congress, members in our city have raise 1 proposal and 202 pieces of advise and criticism. During the inter-sessional period, they have received 11 suggestions for out members. When supervising the implementation of the Proposal for Further Strengthening Comprehensive Remediation of Rural Environment & Sanitation, the standing committee organized and led the members divided into 6 groups to go to different counties and urban districts separately to conduct on-site supervision. A special research has already been conducted, suggestions to strengthening remediation work have been issued to intensify the force for remediation at the municipal standing committee meeting and executive meeting of people's government. At the time, they also supervised the implementation with focus of 12 suggestions, such as tackling parking difficulties in the downtown, increasing investment for rural power network transformation, developing the industrialization of financial-supported agriculture, solving problems of over large-sized classes in primary and middle schools, accelerating the protection and development of Yumu mountain, and etc.. And all 203 suggestions of our members have got implemented and realized.

  (4) We made a solid implementation in mass line campaign, and raised the “positive energy” among representatives of CPC.

  With the opportunity of mass line campaign, the leading party group of Hengyang municipal standing committee gave weight to solve some prominent problems during the process of development with the goals of Hengyang, making a solid foundation in ideology, politics and institution to rebuild a good image of Hengyang and promote righteousness.

  We valued the combination of the development of ideology and work style. Education in outlook on life, world view and values for officials was strengthened though party lectures, awareness videos and party members’ educational bases. Hot issues that the public shows their concern most, like too many meetings, using public cars for private purposes, excessive office area, have been solved with the principle of modeling, problem-oriented, truth and strictness, publicly rectifying, and the rectification plans were open to the public. The officials and Party members consciously fought against “four winds”, which are formalism, bureaucracy, hedonism, extravagance, and other unhealthy trends, and formed new and good atmospheres like atmosphere of learning, investigation, frugality and being people-friendly.

  We valued the combination of specific and overall rectifications. While dealing with “four winds”, issues that matter people’s interests and reaching the last kilometer to the services for people, we laid more stress on rectifying the case where some officials cheated on selection. In order to learn lessons from that case, find out the root of the  problem and explore the fundamental solution of the problem, the standing committee made specific rectification plan on those exposed problems and carried out some activities, like”six questions” discussion, so that officials can introspect deeply and realize the harm and seriousness of that case. We also made joint effort with other departments concerned on regulating the process of election, improving the system of nominating and recommending representatives of CPC and the inspection and examination system and improving representatives’ quality, providing institutional guarantee that prevents that kind of cases from happening.

  We valued the combination of improving work style, strengthening discipline, and radical reform. Sticking on discipline of seeking truth from facts, the standing committee discovered problems instead of hiding them, faced problems instead of avoiding them, solved problems instead of backlogging them and implemented earnest criticism and self-criticism. We collected 64 suggestions to leaders of leading party group and 173 suggestions to members of leading party group which were offered by public general and themselves, pointed out by superiors and each other. According to the problem list, we distributed 41 main rectification tasks in six aspects to specific responsible persons and departments and made clear time limits. The immediate action toward those problems responded the issues people most concerned, and won people’s trust. While improving work style and strengthening disciplines, we also focused on radical regulation and control to tackle the problems as well as their deep causes. We cleared up 72 regulations and revised 39 specific regulations, like practicing strict economy and against waste, regulating business trips, etc., making strong bases and smooth operation on internal management and external connecting.

  In the past year, without the right leadership of Hengyang Municipal Committee of CPC, guidance of Standing Committee of Hunan Provincial Committee of NPC, complete cooperation of Hengyang Municipal Government, People’s Court and People’s procuratorate, hard work of standing committee and members of NPC at all levels in the city, full support of people and all walks of life, we wound not have done our job well. On behalf of the Standing Committee of Hengyang Municipal Committee of NPC, I would like to express our highest respect and sincere thanks to departments at all levels and our people.
  
  While recognizing our achievements, we must realize that there is still a gap between our work and requirements of Party Committee and people’s expectation. In the area of  major matters’ decision-making, the prospectiveness and normalization of decision are still to be improved; in the area of exercising supervision right, the relevance and effectiveness of supervision still need to be enhanced; in the area of appointment and dismissal, understanding of officials before serving and supervision in work should be strengthened; in the area of members, members’ quality should be improved and and their duties should be fully carried out; in the area of self-improvement, officials’ work style and institution should be improved and perfected. We will improve ourselves and fix those problems mentioned above in the future.

  2. Major tasks in 2015
 
  Fellow deputies, this coming year will be crucial for comprehensively deepening reform, the first year for fully advancing the law-based governance of the country and final year for accomplishing the 12th “five-year-plan”.The overall requirements for standing committee’s work are to fully implement comprehensively implement the guiding principles of the 18th National Party Congress, the third and fourth plenary sessions of the 18th CPC Central Committee and major speeches from General Secretary Xi Jinping, to adapt to new normal in economic development, to keep new requirements in mind, to seek new growth, to achieve continuous and sound economic and social development, to earnestly perform all kinds of duties given by laws and constitution, to highlight key points, characteristics and results and to provide a strong foundation for building a overall moderately prosperous city. The major tasks of the standing committee are as follows:
 
（1）Adapt to the new normal and boost economic development. In order to promote the transition from new normal and new requirement to new advantages and new impetus, we should stick to the main tasks and analyze the situations of Hengyang in a dialectical way. In doing so, firstly we must scientifically make important decisions. We should assimilate the good methods and experiences of the NPC and its standing committee from other places to make improvements on making important decisions of our own. In the cases of the major decision-making, major personnel appointment and removal, major projects’ arrangements and large use of money, we need to know the whole situation promptly, give advise and strengthen the supervision. Besides deep investigation, we must make decisions actively, timely and scientifically on such issues that people of most concern and influence the strategy and overall long-term development of Hengyang. Secondly, we must actively promote reforms. We should listen to the reports of municipal government about the reforms related to the vital interests of people, like reform in restructure of government departments and public utilities, administrative approval system, collective forestry property rights system, financial system etc...,and make reasonable suggestions to make full use of the reform dividends. Thirdly, we must step up economy transition. We should pay much attention to the qualities and benefits of economic growth to transit the economy from investment-driven and factor-driven into a innovation-driven one and spare no efforts in realizing the project goal successfully. While making fiscal plans and supervising the work routine, we should help municipal government in line with the twelfth five-year plan to outline the next five-year plan for the economy and social development in Hengyang, and also deliberate the reports of municipal government about the non-governmental financial situation and its potential risks. Fourthly, we must promote social harmony and stability. We should protect and improve people's livelihood like a common task, and listen to the municipal government report on the medical health care at grass root level, private schools and thorough implementation of soil and water conservation law and the prevention and control of geological disaster regulation. Focusing on the vital and practical major issues that people most concern about, we should advocate to tackle the practical problems by carrying out the activities including activities of cross-Hengyang environmental protection, inspection of agricultural products’ quality in Hunan, activities of caring about farmers’ health condition, and national unity action.

（2）Strengthen law concept and promote the law-based governance of the city. Fully advancing the law-based governance of the country is a strategic deployment made in the forth plenary session of 18th CPC Central Committee. NPC and its standing committee at all levels should take actions and play a big role on fully promoting law-based governance of the country. The standing committee will earnestly implement the detailed regulations made by Hengyang Municipal Committee of CPC to practice the “Decisions” made in the forth plenary session, continuously advancing the law-based governance in Hengyang. Firstly, maintain authority of the constitution. The “Decisions” pointed out that state officials who are selected or appointed by NPC and its standing committee should openly pledge to constitution before in office, which is a brand new topic for local NPC and its standing committee. The standing committee will try their best to improve the process, rituals and content of making a vow, and guide its members and appointed officials of government, people’s court and people’s procuratorate to follow the spirits of the constitution, making the constitution-based governance of the country and Party become conscious action. We will also carry out education of constitution in society at large and push forward the boom of learning, publicizing and implementing constitution. Secondly, enhance popularization of the law. We will vigorously advocate learning the law, abiding by the law and uphold the law, forming law-respecting atmosphere. Officials should learn relevant rules and regulations before they do their jobs, like law enforcement, investigation and meeting reviewing. We will listen to and approve the report of the sixth “five-year-plan” for law popularization given by the government and urge all departments at all levels in the city to perform their duties well abiding by the law to welcome the exam of law popularization work at provincial level. Thirdly, strengthen legal surveillance. We will ensure relevant laws to be implemented mainly in the form of inspecting law enforcement. We will inspect law enforcement in some laws, like Tobacco Monopoly Law, Agriculture Law and Sports Law to discover problems in time and then rectify them. We will carry out the methods given by the Standing Committee of Hengyang Municipal Committee of CPC on strengthening judicial supervision and enhance supervision for work of People’s Court and People’s Procuratorate to promote justice. Forth, ensure unification of legal system. Strictly following the workflow, we will strengthen the recording and inspection of normalizative documents and raise the efficiency and quality on recording and inspection. According to the stipulations of Legislative Law, we will build organizations on recording and inspecting normalization documents and some relevant systems. We will enhance the instruction on work of recording and inspecting normalization documents in the city.
 
  (3) Find the key point to strengthen the supervision of government, people’s court and people’s procutarorate. We will stick to place support in supervision and regard supervision as support, so as to push the work of government, people’s court and people’s procuratorate forward. To finish that task, firstly we must complete supervision system. We will enact some systems according to relevant laws, like regulations on inspecting and supervising government’s full-covered budget and final accounts and interim regulations on supervising environmental protection. We will step up checking on the rectification and try to establish a system that audit departments and departments under auditing report their rectification simultaneously. We will take the way Hunan Provincial Standing Committee of CPC did as a reference, and enact a system that information of appointed officials from people’s court and people’s procuratorate should be publicized before they take office. We will strengthen the supervision of supervisors themselves and complete the system that members of NPC at provincial and municipal level should report their work to their former election district regularly. Secondly, we must choose the right way of supervision. We will carry out work evaluation, special inspection and investigation and persistently supervise on people’s pressing concerns and hot but challenging issues. While carrying on a question part in standing committee meeting, we actively set question part in report meetings and symposiums during the inspection of law enforcement, work investigation and inspection by deputies. Members of standing committee and NPC will ask persons in charge of relevant departments of government some hot but challenging issues in supervision items, making the question part become a normal. Thirdly, we must innovate ways of supervision. We will take various forms to supervise some specific supervision targets, items and processes, like combination of open and secret investigation, combination of field research and questionaire survey, combination of collecting people’s advise through Internet and phone calls, combination of file and photo material and video material, shaping a multi-faceted supervision form. We will take zero tolerance to weaknesses and negative stuffs and strictly expose and rectify them. Fourthly, we must monitoring the supervised items. We will monitor and urge government, people’s court and people’s procuratorate to fully implement rectification of the problems pointed out by the standing committee during the supervision. We will resolutely prevent the phenomenon of making proposals but taking no action from happening and try our best to make the proposals become reality and meet people’s satisfaction.

  (4) Heighten aim awareness and deeply push forward the practical activity with the theme of caring about people and performing duties for people. We will take the  improvement of work performance as a priority to improve the abilities of members and stuffs from Hengyang Municipal Committee of NPC to serve the overall interests, the public general and the grass root. Based on last year’s situation, we will further enrich the activities and ensure quality and good results of the activities. To complete the task, firstly we must implement “three contact”-- strengthen contact between offices and grass roots, contact between members of standing committee and members of Hengyang Municipal Committee of NPC, contact between members and people. We will push forward the construction of the work stations of members contacting people and complete a series systems, like duty system, opinions dealing system, feedback system and evaluation system. We will encourage officials of Hengyang Municipal Committee of NPC to go on duty in the work station, making the work of Hengyang Municipal Committee of NPC more close to people. Besides promote the activities of members of standing committee visiting members of Hengyang Municipal Committee of NPC, we will take full use of grid-based parallel management platform for members contacting people and try to develop new service platforms, like mobile apps and internet clients. Though modern mass media and service terminal, we can promptly release the work trends of standing committee and  collect people’s suggestions and comments, accomplishing the real-time interaction among members of Hengyang Municipal Committee of NPC, people and standing committee and promoting the convenience and effectiveness of work performance. Secondly, we must carry out “three help” in a more detailed way. We will help people clear up their confusions and encourage members to publicize law, policies, current affairs, science, etc. in various ways and to give experience on production, entrepreneurship, housekeeping and good neighnourliness. We will help people speak out their opinions, and guide members to report people’s voice, hope and expectation. We will help people in a practical way that encourage members take advantages of information, policies, contacts and finance to solve some non-profit and basic problems for people. Thirdly, we must do well in “three evaluations”. We must carry out the members’ evaluation by voter comprehensively in the area of meeting attendance, participation in politics, representation for people, proposals-making, disciplines observation and actions on people’s affairs. We will carry it out with trials and then promote it though out the city. We must carry out evaluation of members from standing committee by members from Hengyang Municipal Committee of NPC comprehensively in the area of comments, speeches and investigations. We must carry out evaluation of members of standing committee handling proposals by members from Hengyang Municipal Committee of NPC. For those departments which have not so good attitude toward work, poor effectiveness and undesirable results, we will call the advise offers and people involved together to evaluate those departments and publicize the appraisal results. We will also commend some officials for their excellent work performance and some departments for their excellent work in handling proposals. Carrying out practical theme activities will further arouse members’ enthusiasm and wisdom of representing people’s voice, protecting people’s rights and benefiting people, increase innovation and influence of their work, heighten force of supervision and promotion of local authorities and enhance people’s confidence in ways, theories and systems.
 
  Fellow deputies, looking back in last year, we feel delighted about our achievements. Looking forward to this coming year, we are confident with the changes that are about to happen. Let’s hold high the great banner of socialism with Chinese characteristics,  rally closely around the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as General Secretary, under the excellent leadership of Hengyang Municipal Committee of CPC, work together to break new grand and thrive for a moderately prosperous Hengyang!
