The saying 'Public life is wise, integrity is powerful' originated from the 'Official Precepts' written by the Ming Dynasty official Nian Fu, and has been cited by some Ming Dynasty officials as a warning to themselves. This statement reveals the importance of fairness and integrity for politicians, and also points out that clean governance and fair use of power are fundamental to winning the hearts of the people and establishing prestige. Today, as the comprehensive and strict governance of the Party continues to deepen, only by adhering to the principles of "fairness" and "integrity" can Party members and cadres achieve stability and carry on their mission in the tide of the times. What are 'public' and 'clean'? 'Public' means upholding a fair heart, handling affairs impartially, putting public interests first, and not seeking personal gain; Integrity "means adhering to the bottom line of honesty and integrity, self-restraint and serving the public, eliminating corruption and bribery, and achieving the goal of" one grain at a time, my reputation; one grain at a time, the cream of the people ". During the Northern Song Dynasty, Bao Zheng adhered to the principle of "purity of heart as the fundamental cause, and straightforwardness as personal strategy". Throughout his life, he was impartial, impartial in resolving cases, unafraid of the powerful, and devoted himself to seeking justice for the people. He became a model of fairness and integrity for officials. The resolute oath of Yu Qian in the Ming Dynasty, which stated that he was not afraid of being broken into pieces, but wanted to keep his innocence in the world, demonstrated his noble spirit of upholding integrity and not colluding with the secular world. For party members and cadres, "fairness" and "integrity" are the foundation of their existence and performance of their duties. Only by performing their duties with a fair heart and practicing their promises with integrity can they live up to the trust of the party and the people. To uphold public integrity, we must adhere to principles and be honest and upright. We must not only have the belief of "upholding the will of the public", but also have the action of "practicing integrity". Throughout history, countless honest and upright officials have demonstrated the power of public integrity through practical actions. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Yang Zhen, known as the "Four Knows of Refusing Gold," sternly refused the heavy money sent late at night and upheld the bottom line of integrity. His image of honesty and integrity has been passed down through the ages. This spirit of adhering to principles and not being swayed by interests has always been the moral benchmark for politicians, demonstrating the eternal value of the spirit of integrity. Most people who are honest and upright have an open mind and always maintain a clear mind when faced with the temptation of interests and the interference of human emotions. They adhere to the bottom line of principles and truly realize that power is for the people, emotions are for the people, and interests are for the people. On the contrary, some people become greedy and use their power for personal gain, ultimately reaping the consequences themselves. There were many corrupt officials in ancient times who were plagued by greed and excessive wealth accumulation, leading to their downfall and ruin. In the corruption cases investigated and dealt with, some party members and cadres have lost their ideals and beliefs, used their power to seek personal and small group interests, engaged in power money transactions and interest transfers, seriously damaged the interests of the masses, and damaged the image of the party and government; Some deviate from the principle of fairness in project approval, fund allocation, and other work, engage in covert operations, favor one over the other, resulting in unfair resource allocation and causing dissatisfaction among the masses. These behaviors not only plunge individuals into the abyss of corruption, but also cause great damage to the cause of the Party and the country. Gongsheng Ming, Lian Sheng Wei. ”Public integrity has always been an important criterion for measuring the moral character of politicians, and it is also an inherent need for the long-term stability and social harmony of the country. Party members and cadres should integrate "public" and "integrity" into their bloodline, internalize them as spiritual pursuits, and externalize them as conscious actions. When faced with temptations, they should hold the bottom line with a clear conscience of "not taking anything from me, even if it's not my own"; In fulfilling duties, we will handle things fairly based on the principle of "fairness comes from the public, and fairness comes from the way", making the concept of "only fairness brings clarity, only integrity brings prestige" a solid foundation for entrepreneurship, and writing a new chapter of integrity, honesty, and justice for the people in the new era and new journey.
