Without compromising Covid-19 control, China has steadily resumed social and economic activities in an orderly way, so as to stabilize the six fronts (employment, finance, foreign trade, inbound investment, domestic investment, and market expectations), and guarantee the six priorities (jobs, daily living needs, food and energy, industrial and supply chains, the interests of market players, and the smooth functioning of grassroots government).文章源自英文巴士-https://www.en84.com/9327.html

It has fostered a social and economic order under the conditions imposed by Covid-19 control and striven to minimize their impact on social and economic development, thus providing a strong material and social buttress for the fight against the epidemic.文章源自英文巴士-https://www.en84.com/9327.html
Maintaining social order and stability. China has made every effort to ensure social order and stability, market order, public security, and supervision over the quality and pricing of epidemic-control supplies. It has adopted timely policies to ensure the basic livelihood of people in difficulties caused by Covid-19. Psychological counseling is provided to ease distress, nurture a healthy mindset, prevent and resolve potential problems, and defuse local disputes.
Despite strict measures such as traffic control and home-based quarantine, the economy and society have remained resilient. The supply of water, electricity, natural gas and telecommunication services continues, as does the supply of daily necessities in urban and rural areas. Key sectors providing food, pharmaceuticals, energy, basic industrial products, and public services that are essential to social stability and people’s wellbeing are in normal operation, meeting the basic needs of 1.4 billion people.
有序推动复工复产。密集制定出台多项政策,为企业特别是中小企业和个体工商户减负纾困,实施减费降税,增加财政补贴,加大金融支持,减负稳岗扩就业,优化政府服务。各地方及时制定实施细则,将疫情防控、公共事业运行、群众生活必需等领域的1万多家企业列为重点,通过租用专车、专列、包机等方式“点对点”“一站式”帮助农民工返岗,并从个人防护物资、人流、物流等方面为企业复工提供全方位服务。针对公共交通运输、餐饮、住宿、旅游、体育、娱乐等受疫情影响较大的行业,采取免征增值税等税收优惠政策。阶段性减免企业社保费,缓缴住房公积金,免收公路通行费,降低企业用电用气价格,减轻小微企业和个体工商户房租负担。对中小微企业贷款实施临时性延期还本付息、新增优惠利率贷款。支持大学生、农民工等重点群体创业就业,扩大中小微企业稳岗返还政策受益面,发力稳就业,促进中小企业发展。用好用足出口退税、出口信用保险政策,扩大出口信贷投放,开拓多元化市场,加快压减外资准入负面清单,持续扩大外资市场准入,为企业“补血”“减负”“拓空间”。国有企业发挥主力军作用,带动上下游产业和中小企业全面复工复产。截至4月底,全国规模以上工业企业复工率超过99%,中小微企业复工率达到88.4%,重大项目复工率超过95%;湖北全省规模以上工业企业复工率、员工到岗率分别达到98.2%、92.1%,整体接近全国平均水平。一批国家重点科技专项、超级民生工程、重大标志性外资项目重现往日繁忙景象。中国经济运行加快回归常态,经济活力正在快速释放。
Orderly resumption of work. The central government has quickly adopted a host of policies to reduce the burdens of businesses, particularly small and medium enterprises and self-employed people. These include measures such as reducing fees and lowering taxes, increasing government subsidies, strengthening financial support, stabilizing and expanding employment, and improving government services.
Local governments have issued detailed rules to implement these policies, especially to help the 10,000 plus key enterprises essential to Covid-19 control, public services, and daily necessities. Comprehensive services are being provided to help enterprises to resume operation, including providing personal protective gear and facilitating the flow of labor and materials. Point-to-point buses, trains and planes were chartered to send migrant workers back to their work posts. Preferential tax treatments such as exemption from value-added tax are available to businesses in transport, catering, hospitality, tourism, sport, entertainment and other sectors hit hard by the epidemic. Businesses also enjoy a temporary reduction in or exemption from social security contributions, a waiver of highway tolls, and reduced electricity and gas prices, and they are allowed to postpone their housing provident fund payments. Rent is being reduced for small and micro enterprises and the self-employed. The principal and interest repayment periods on loans to micro, small and medium enterprises are being extended, and more concessional loans are being provided.
Key groups such as college graduates and migrant workers are receiving support in finding jobs or starting businesses. Subsidies given to micro, small and medium enterprises to reduce layoffs are being extended to more businesses so as to stabilize employment and help them survive.
Policies on export tax rebates and export credit insurance are being put to good use, export credits expanded and new export markets explored. The negative list of market access for foreign investment has been cut to attract foreign investment. All these efforts will cut burdens on enterprises and stimulate their growth.
State-owned enterprises have taken the lead in resuming operations, providing impetus for upstream and downstream industries, including small and medium enterprises. By the end of April, 99 percent of companies of designated size – with a revenue of more than RMB20 million per annum – had resumed operations, as had 88.4 percent of micro, small and medium enterprises. Construction of over 95 percent of major projects across the country had resumed. In Hubei Province, more than 98.2 percent of enterprises of designated size had resumed operations, and 92.1 percent of their employees had returned to their jobs, and both these figures were close to the national average. Now, work on some key national science and technology projects, major national projects related to people’s daily lives, and landmark foreign-funded projects has resumed. The Chinese economy is accelerating its return to normal operation, and it is becoming increasingly robust.
公众生活逐步恢复。随着疫情防控形势积极向好,公众日常生活逐步恢复。公共交通全面恢复运行,餐饮门店有序开放堂食。“五一”假期重新绽放活力,全国铁路、道路、水路、民航累计发送旅客1.21亿人次,全国累计接待国内游客1.15亿人次,实现国内旅游收入475.6亿元,经受住了疫情和假期的双重考验。在落实防控措施前提下,全面开放商场、超市、宾馆、餐馆等生活场所。全国分批分次复学复课,截至5月31日,各省(自治区、直辖市)和新疆生产建设兵团中小学部分学段均已开学,共有1.63亿学生(含幼儿园)返校。中国社会正在恢复往常热闹景象,人气日益回暖,消费逐步复苏。
Gradual return to normal life. With steady progress made in Covid-19 control, public life is gradually returning to normal. Public transport services have fully resumed. More restaurants are reopening to the public. The May Day holiday in China saw a bustle of activity. During the five-day holiday, 121 million trips were made via railways, highways, waterways and air; and 115 million visits were paid to domestic tourist attractions, generating revenue of RMB47.56 billion.
Services such as shops, supermarkets, hotels, and restaurants have reopened their doors under Covid-19 control conditions. Students across the country have resumed their studies, and some have now returned to school. As of May 31, 163 million students and children in some grades of kindergarten, elementary and secondary schools across the country had returned to school or kindergarten. Public life is returning to normal in China, with people resuming their daily routines and consumption gradually picking up.
(四)14亿中国人民坚韧奉献守望相助
4. Uniting as One – China’s Billion People
国家兴亡,匹夫有责。14亿中国人民,不分男女老幼,不论岗位分工,都自觉投入抗击疫情的人民战争,坚韧团结、和衷共济,凝聚起抗击疫情的磅礴力量。14亿中国人民都是抗击疫情的伟大战士。
All citizens share a responsibility for the fate of their country. The 1.4 billion Chinese people, irrespective of their gender, age, and occupation, have plunged themselves into the battle against the epidemic. Resilient and united, they represent a formidable force.
医务工作者白衣执甲、逆行出征。从年逾古稀的院士专家,到90后、00后的年轻医护人员,面对疫情义无反顾、坚定前行。54万名湖北省和武汉市医务人员冲锋在前,4万多名军地医务人员第一时间驰援湖北省和武汉市,数百万名医务人员战斗在全国抗疫一线。他们以对人民的赤诚和对生命的敬佑,争分夺秒、舍生忘死、连续作战,挽救了一个又一个垂危生命,用血肉之躯构筑起阻击病毒的钢铁长城,为病毒肆虐的漫漫黑夜带来了光明,守护了国家和民族生生不息的希望。他们与病毒直面战斗,承受难以想象的身体和心理压力,付出巨大牺牲,2000多人确诊感染,几十人以身殉职。没有人生而英勇,只是选择了无畏。中国医生的医者仁心和大爱无疆,永远铭刻在中华民族历史上,永远铭刻在中国人民心中。
Medical workers rose to the challenge. Medical workers, from the very young to the very old, showed no hesitation in confronting the epidemic. At the outset, some 540,000 medical workers from Wuhan and other parts of Hubei plunged into the fray, joined soon by more than 40,000 civilian and military medical workers who rushed from other parts of the country. Millions of medical workers grappled with the epidemic at the front line across the country. Showing professional devotion and a deep respect for life, many of them risked their own lives, racing against time and working round the clock to try to save every patient. They built a Great Wall against the virus, bringing light and hope to the nation at a dark time. They endured tremendous fatigue and stress, and paid a heavy price. More than 2,000 medical workers were infected, and scores died in the line of duty. No one is born a hero, yet their selflessness made them fearless. These people, with the nobility, kindness, and devotion that are intrinsic to their profession, have etched an unforgettable chapter in the history of the Chinese nation and in the hearts of the Chinese people.
武汉人民和湖北人民顾全大局、顽强不屈,为阻击病毒作出巨大牺牲。武汉人民、湖北人民面对离汉离鄂通道关闭后与外隔绝、交通停滞、城市“停摆”,克服了近距离接触病毒、医疗资源和生活物资紧张以及长时间隔离带来的困难,忍住失去至爱亲朋的痛苦,服从大局,咬紧牙关,团结坚守。在伟大的抗疫战争中,英雄的武汉人民、湖北人民将载入史册为人们所铭记。
People in Wuhan and other parts of Hubei fought with resolve against the novel coronavirus and made sacrifices to contain its spread. The people of Wuhan and Hubei were confronted with many challenges. All channels of exit from the city and the province were temporarily closed, intra-city public transport was suspended, and the capital city came to a standstill. The high risk of infection, tight supply of medical and daily necessities, and extended period of isolation were compounded by the trauma of bereavement for those who lost friends or family members to the virus. However, with grit in their hearts and the wider interests of others in their minds, they united to stop the transmission of the virus. In this great war, their heroism will be remembered and will go down in history.
社区工作者、公安民警、海关关员、基层干部、下沉干部不辞辛苦、日夜值守,为保护人民生命安全牺牲奉献。400万名社区工作者奋战在全国65万个城乡社区中,监测疫情、测量体温、排查人员、站岗值守、宣传政策、防疫消杀,认真细致,尽职尽责,守好疫情防控“第一关口”。公安民警及辅警驻守医院、转运病人、街道巡逻、维护秩序,面对急难险重任务勇挑重担,130多人牺牲在工作岗位。海关关员依法履行卫生检疫职责,筑牢口岸检疫防线。社区防控一线广大党员、干部及时将党和政府的声音传导到基层,组织动员群众做好防控,积极为群众排忧解难,抓实抓细网格服务管理。
Community workers, primary and community-level officials, officials sent to work in communities, police, and customs officers worked day and night to protect lives and public safety. Some 4 million community workers are working in around 650,000 urban and rural communities, monitoring the situation, taking body temperatures, screening for infection, disseminating government policies, and sanitizing neighborhoods. Dedicated and responsible, they have meticulously protected their communities from the virus.
Police and auxiliary police officers handled emergent, dangerous, difficult, and burdensome tasks such as guarding hospitals, transporting patients, and patrolling the streets to maintain order. More than 130 have died in the line of duty.
Customs officers have applied the law and carried out quarantine and other health-related duties, preventing the virus from entering the country.
CPC members working in communities quickly communicated the policies of the Party and the government, mobilized residents to engage in epidemic prevention and control, and actively helped them solve their daily difficulties. They divided communities into sub-units called grids to improve services and management.
快递小哥、环卫工人、道路运输从业人员、新闻工作者、志愿者等各行各业工作者不惧风雨、敬业坚守。疫情期间,千家万户关门闭户,数百万快递员顶风冒雪、冒疫前行,在城市乡村奔波,给人们送来温暖。全国180万环卫工人起早贪黑、不辞辛劳,高标准做好卫生清扫、消毒杀菌、医疗废物集中处理、垃圾清理清运。数千万道路运输从业人员坚守岗位,许多城市出租车司机没有停工,有力保障疫情防控、生产生活物资运输和复工复产。新闻工作者不惧风险、深入一线,记录中国抗疫的点点滴滴,传递中国人民抗击疫情的温情和力量。许多普通人投入一线志愿服务,社区值守、排查患者、清洁消杀、买药送菜,缓解居民燃眉之急。据不完全统计,截至5月31日,全国参与疫情防控的注册志愿者达到881万人,志愿服务项目超过46万个,记录志愿服务时间超过2.9亿小时。
Couriers, sanitation workers, transport employees, media workers, volunteers, and many people from other sectors of society also devoted themselves to the fight against the epidemic. When things were at their most serious, while people kept their doors closed, millions of couriers braved the virus and the cold, delivering warmth and comfort to people in cities and rural areas.
China’s 1.8 million sanitation workers worked from dawn to dusk to clean and disinfect public spaces, and collect and transport medical and other wastes to centralized treatment facilities.
Tens of millions of transport employees, including taxi drivers in many cities, remained at their posts, providing a vital support to epidemic prevention and control, carrying supplies for work and daily life, and helping to get the country back to work.
Some media workers also worked at the front line, recording the battle against the epidemic, spreading warmth, and evoking strength.
Many ordinary people volunteered at the front line, standing guard in communities, screening for infection, carrying out cleaning and disinfection work, and buying medicines and delivering groceries for other residents’ pressing needs. Preliminary statistics show that as of May 31, 8.81 million registered volunteers across the country had participated in more than 460,000 volunteer projects, rendering a total of more than 290 million hours of voluntary service.
广大民众扛起责任、众志成城,自觉参与抗击疫情。危难面前,中国人民对中国共产党和中国政府高度信任,勇敢承担起社会责任,为取得抗疫胜利约束自我乃至牺牲自我。疫情暴发正值春节假期,国家一声令下,全民响应,一致行动,整个社会紧急停下脚步。人们取消了春节期间的走亲访友和各种聚会,克服困难就地隔离,外出自觉佩戴口罩、测量体温、保持社交距离。保护自己就是保护别人、就是为国家作贡献成为社会共识和每个人的自觉行动。人们长时间在家隔离,上网课、学美食、陪家人,用各种方式缓解压力,以积极乐观的态度抗击疫情。“所有好的做法如果想要奏效,必须要有公众的集体意愿。正因如此,中国有能力通过传统公共卫生干预方法应对一种新型的未知病毒”(注5)。
The general public shouldered their responsibilities, united as one, and proactively participated in epidemic prevention and control. In the face of adversity, Chinese people have great faith in the Party and the government. They courageously shouldered their social responsibilities, and on this occasion made great sacrifices to win the battle against the epidemic.
The Chinese New Year holiday arrived amid the epidemic. Following government orders to contain the virus, the whole population acted in concert, and social exchanges shrank to a minimum. Visits to friends and relatives were canceled and so were other gatherings; people quarantined themselves, wore masks, began to take their body temperature regularly, and practiced other social distancing measures. The consensus was that protecting oneself was protecting others and making contribution to the country, so everyone took voluntary actions against the virus. People stayed at home for extended periods of time, taking online courses, honing culinary skills, and spending time with their families. Many found creative ways to keep themselves occupied, and confronted the epidemic with a positive attitude.
Speaking of the general public in China, Dr. Bruce Aylward, former assistant director general of the WHO and senior advisor to WHO director general, said at the press conference of WHO-China Joint Mission on Covid-19 held on February 24 in Beijing, “And that’s because we want to emphasize this can’t work without the collective will of the population contributing to it. And that’s what really distinguishes this country, this response and the ability to take these old-fashioned strategies, some of the earliest ones we had in public health, apply them to the most modern virus and somehow do that.”5
重大危机是考验执政党执政理念、执政效能的试金石。中国在较短时间内遏制疫情蔓延,根本在于中国共产党的坚强领导。中国共产党有坚强有力的领导核心,有以人民为中心的执政理念,面对疫情危机,迅速科学作出决策,实行高效有力的危机应对。中国共产党严密的组织体系和高效的运行机制,在短时间内建立横向到边、纵向到底的危机应对机制,有效调动各方积极性,全国上下令行禁止、统一行动。中国共产党460多万个基层组织,广泛动员群众、组织群众、凝聚群众、服务群众,筑起一座座抗击疫情的坚强堡垒。在疫情危及人民生命安全的危难关头,共产党员冲在最前面,全国3900多万名党员、干部战斗在抗疫一线,1300多万名党员参加志愿服务,近400名党员、干部为保卫人民生命安全献出了宝贵生命。广大党员自觉捐款,为疫情防控斗争真情奉献。注重在疫情考验中锤炼党员干部,检验为民初心和责任担当,对湖北省委和武汉市委领导班子作出调整补充,对不担当、不作为、失职渎职的党员干部严肃问责,对敢于担当、认真负责的党员干部大力褒奖、大胆使用,立起了鲜明导向。历经疫情磨砺,中国人民更加深切地认识到,风雨来袭,中国共产党的领导是最重要的保障、最可靠的依托,对中国共产党更加拥护和信赖,对中国制度更加充满信心。
A major crisis is a litmus test of the ruling Party’s governance philosophy and effectiveness. The strong leadership of the CPC has been fundamental to China’s rapid containment of the virus. The CPC has a strong leadership core, a people-oriented governance philosophy, and well-established organization and operation mechanisms. It quickly made the right decisions in response to the crisis. Under its leadership, efficient and powerful response measures were implemented. Within a short time, across-the-board crisis-response mechanisms were established down to the community level, motivating all those involved across the country to follow instructions and act as one.
The CPC has more than 4.6 million primary-level organizations, which have served as strongholds against the epidemic, rallying and serving the general public. With the epidemic putting people’s lives and safety in danger, CPC members have acted as the vanguard. More than 39 million CPC members fought the virus at the front line, and more than 13 million CPC members volunteered their services. Nearly 400 CPC members have defended others’ lives and safety at the cost of their own. Party members have also voluntarily donated money for epidemic prevention and control.
The CPC attaches great importance to tempering its members in times of trial, to gauge their commitment to serving the people and their sense of responsibility. The leadership of Wuhan City and Hubei Province was reshuffled, with some officials sanctioned for irresponsibility and dereliction of duty while others have been honored and promoted for their dedication and sense of responsibility.
After weathering the epidemic, the Chinese people have keenly realized that the CPC leadership is the most reliable shelter against storms. Their trust in and support for the Party have increased, along with their confidence in China’s political system.
