power must be exercised in broad daylight
2026-03-24
The Nine Bend Yellow River roars and rushes, taking a bend in Lankao County, Henan Province. On the bank of the embankment, rows of thick and sturdy 'Jiaotong' trees deeply pierce the earth and stand tall and straight. At that time, Comrade Jiao Yulu led cadres and the masses to resist sandstorms, control salt and alkali, plant paulownia trees widely, and sow the hope of "a thousand hectares of clear blue". Spring breeze turns into rain, fresh air flows with fragrance. Nowadays, the large sand dunes and saline alkali land have long disappeared, and a continuous stream of cadres and masses have come from all over to look up to "Jiaotong" and pursue the eternal spiritual landmark of the Communist Party. In the Comrade Jiao Yulu Memorial Hall, leaders and officials of a certain army brigade stood in front of the exhibition wall of the "Ten Prohibitions for Cadres" with a red background and yellow characters, carrying out education in conjunction with the "Ten Musts" issued by the brigade. The story of Jiao Yulu criticizing his son for "watching white dramas" is well-known, but many people are not aware of it. Afterwards, he personally drafted the "Ten Prohibitions for Cadres", requiring "not to use national or collective food and drink excessively, treat guests and give gifts", "not to give theater tickets, and theater tickets before the 10th row of the auditorium cannot be sold only to government officials"... Now, in deepening political training, the leadership of the brigade has actively suggested the introduction of the "Ten Musts", requiring "major decisions must be publicly solicited for opinions, military and political officials must take the lead in accountability and integrity..." From the "Ten Prohibitions" to the "Ten Musts", it confirms an eternal truth: power originates from the people, must serve the people, and be supervised by the people. This is the political nature and party consciousness determined by the nature and purpose of communists. Consciously accepting supervision is a minimum quality for leading cadres. At the beginning of last year, when Zhang Zhengwei, the political commissar of a certain Air Force unit, took office, he sorted out important powers related to personnel appointment and removal, funding approval, engineering construction, commendation and rewards into a book, made a "list of power operation", and published it on the unit's bulletin board and internal office system, accepting supervision from all officers and soldiers. Shortly thereafter, the department undertook a major combat readiness project, involving cross departmental collaboration and significant funding investment, with many clues and great difficulty. Political Commissar Zhang led a team of people to adhere to the principle of power disclosure without any discount, supervise throughout the entire project process, and disclose feasibility reports and budget estimates to officers and soldiers from the beginning of project approval; Before each major decision, organizational cadres, grassroots backbone, and technical experts hold a demonstration meeting, and the collected opinions and suggestions, revised plans, and final decision results are all publicly announced in the first time. Leaders take the lead in exposing their power to the sun and avoiding covert operations. With our concerted efforts and high-quality completion of engineering tasks, we have greater confidence! ”The technical backbone who participated in the project told reporters that the military has improved the power operation mechanism of "pre disclosure, in-process supervision, and post review", and that leaders and cadres have become the norm to consciously accept supervision. The enthusiasm of officers and soldiers to participate in supervision and entrepreneurship has significantly increased. People who do not want to accept supervision, those who cannot consciously accept supervision, those who feel uncomfortable accepting supervision from the Party and the people, do not possess the basic qualities of being a leading cadre. ”At the expanded meeting of the Party Committee of the Ministry, Political Commissar Zhang led everyone to study President Xi Jinping's important speech again, giving everyone a new understanding and comprehension of consciously accepting supervision. In the bustling city where the fighter jet's flight route passes, several ancient buildings stand tall. That is the famous Changzhou Three Heroes Memorial Hall. Every time I fly over there, I feel like the martyrs are watching us. ”A pilot from the department told reporters that as a native of Changzhou, he has visited these three memorial halls multiple times, especially the Yun Daiying Memorial Hall, and has received education every time he goes. Yun Daiying's life was short, but he set an example for us Communists to consciously accept supervision and enhance our party spirit, "he said. In 1924, Yun Daiying was appointed by the party organization to participate in leading the workers' movement in Shanghai. Once, he organized a strike by workers at a Shanghai textile factory and established a "supervision group" composed of key workers to oversee the use of strike funds and the implementation of actions. The strike is the responsibility of all workers, and every aspect must be open and transparent. Everyone should not only supervise the capitalists, but also me as the organizer. Once problems are discovered, they can be raised at any time. ”Yun Daiying's proactive attitude of accepting worker supervision made the workers who were deeply oppressed by warlords and capitalists truly feel that communists were "different". Later, Yun Daiying was arrested and imprisoned. In the extremely scarce situation of materials in prison, he and his fellow inmates jointly formulated the rules of "fair distribution and mutual supervision". Whether it was clothes and food sent by the party organization through secret channels, or the only pen, ink, and paper in prison, they were all jointly kept and uniformly distributed by everyone to prevent any phenomenon of private hiding and distribution. We are Communist Party members, and in any situation, we must adhere to the bottom line of integrity and self-discipline. Mutual supervision is loyalty to the Party and responsibility for the revolutionary cause. ”The pilot sighed and said, "This is a phrase that Yun Daiying often says. We Communists were like this more than a hundred years ago, it is still like this now, and it should be like this in the future. During the interview, the reporter saw that after undergoing political training, some leading cadres no longer feel that supervision is incompatible with themselves. It has become a habit for everyone to voluntarily accept supervision. Entering a certain army brigade, many party members and leading cadres not only did not evade or refuse supervision, but also actively registered to participate in the "anti-corruption census" and "anti-corruption physical examination"; Visiting a certain naval unit, the party members and leading cadres of the unit conduct precise inspections on key sensitive positions every quarter; Visiting a certain Air Force station, not only were opinion boxes hung in prominent positions within the camp, but dedicated QR codes were also posted on dining tables, study rooms, and washrooms. Officers and soldiers could easily choose to report anonymously or with their real names by scanning their phones... When it comes to these, leaders of several units said, "Accepting supervision is not about binding oneself, but about respecting the power of the opponent, being responsible for the unit and officers and soldiers, protecting ourselves, and being a prerequisite for doing our job well." The more important the position is, the more we need to strengthen supervision. Recently, Chief Li of a certain department, who had just completed a major engineering construction task, was invited to participate in the exchange meeting for key sensitive positions in the army, and shared his experience based on his own experience. Previously, Director Li was responsible for a certain engineering project that not only completed ahead of schedule and had excellent quality, but also achieved "zero complaints, zero violations, and zero problems". He himself was also commended and rewarded for his solid work style. When it comes to experience, he said with deep emotion: "The more critical the position and the greater the responsibility, the more we need to use supervision as a 'talisman' to let power run in the sunshine." As a "key minority" in managing money, property, and engineering, Director Li has been well aware since the beginning of his tenure that the power in his hands is not only the trust of the organization, but also a heavy responsibility, and he must consciously and actively accept supervision. He not only took the initiative to expose himself to the Party committee and discipline inspection commission, inviting grassroots officers and soldiers to supervise the entire process, but also proactively investigated potential risks in the exercise of power. A colleague discovered that there was room for optimization in a certain process of the project he was responsible for, and proposed improvement suggestions. He immediately studied and adopted them; The unit has newly issued supervision and management regulations, and he immediately organized everyone to study, took the lead in strictly implementing them, and never simplified procedures due to "special circumstances" or "efficiency priority". Under his leadership, a good atmosphere of "actively accepting supervision and being willing to accept supervision" has been formed in the general department, which has upheld the bottom line of integrity and ensured that all work is carried out in accordance with regulations and discipline. At the exchange meeting, Director Li said that supervision is not a "shackle that restricts hands and feet", but a "barrier to prevent risks". Only by actively embracing and consciously accepting supervision can leading cadres move forward and steadily in key positions, and build a "firewall" for fulfilling their duties and responsibilities. The unit is stationed at the top of the mountains, and when the weather is good, officers and soldiers can overlook the red holy land - the revolutionary base in western Fujian. At that time, Zhang Dingcheng, who was serving as the chairman of the Soviet government in western Fujian, took the initiative to open the door to office and life, and accepted supervision from the masses in the Soviet area. In order to facilitate the public's feedback, he deliberately set up his office in the ancestral hall where people frequently come and go. Once, a township Soviet cadre was reported by the masses for favoring relatives when distributing relief food. Zhang Dingcheng personally led the staff to investigate in the township, verified the situation, and held a mass meeting on the spot to publicly deal with the cadre. He said, "Our government is the government of the people, and the eyes of the masses are sharp. Only by letting the masses supervise us can we avoid deviation." Even after returning to his hometown in Fujian for rest in his later years, Zhang Dingcheng still participated in the organizational life of the party branch as an ordinary party member. Once, the party branch conducted criticism and self-criticism, and a party member pointed out that he was "sometimes a few minutes late for studying". Zhang Dingcheng accepted it on the spot and sincerely apologized, and there have been no more instances of being late since then. Nowadays, in the process of deepening political rectification, repeated warning education and ideological baptism have made the vast number of party members and leading cadres increasingly realize that supervision is not a "burden", but a "protection". In an interview, a leader of the department shared his experience - during an organizational life meeting, a comrade bluntly pointed out that he did not implement the organizational life system frequently or timely enough, and had a tendency to detach himself from the masses. Faced with problems, this leader humbly accepted and promptly rectified them. The more actively one accepts supervision, the more they can discover their own problems in a timely manner. ”Looking back on this experience, the leader couldn't help but feel deeply moved. "By avoiding risks and avoiding detours, we can be more flexible, take on responsibilities, and contribute more to the cause of building a strong military." Building the "first line of defense" in our daily lives, Director Li of the Political Work Department of a certain brigade organized the selection and recommendation of cadres, and publicly announced the selection criteria, process, and supervision methods in the first place. During the selection period, he sorted out and supervised feedback clues every day, responded to the questions raised by the officers and soldiers one by one, and invited the discipline inspection department to participate in the review throughout the process. In the end, a group of grassroots cadres with outstanding achievements stood out. Speaking of this encouraging phenomenon, the officers and soldiers of the brigade told reporters that such self-awareness has now become a habit for many party members and leading cadres. We have already reached a consensus that we should consciously accept supervision, not pick the right time or divide tasks, and must cover all fields and areas, always keeping our thoughts online and our actions on track. Lack of supervision often begins with 'not being bound by details'. ”A cadre engaged in disciplinary inspection and supervision work told reporters that violations of rules and regulations often go through a process from quantitative change to qualitative change. If we could have pulled in a timely manner when the problem first appeared, many cadres could have avoided sinking. This is precisely where the "four forms" of supervision and discipline enforcement emphasize the deep meaning of catching small mistakes early and preventing them from escalating - only by building the "first line of defense" in daily life can we avoid small mistakes from turning into big disasters. Not long ago, the brigade organized officers and soldiers to conduct on-site education at the former site of the Shaanxi Gansu Ningxia Border Region Government. At the former site of the Shaanxi Gansu Ningxia Border Region High Court located on the "Court Mountain", there are stirring and clear documents such as the verdict announcement of Huang Kegong's case, the announcement of Xiao Yubi's corruption case, and the announcement of Feng Luhou's absconding case with funds, which make the officers and soldiers truly feel the determination of our party to strictly supervise and discipline. What impressed the officers and soldiers even more was a report about "two cents" - at that time, the secretary of Lin Boqu, the chairman of the Border Region Government, was publicly corrected for reporting an extra two cents on travel expenses. When the news spread, some people were worried that the auditors would make a big deal out of it and anger the leader. Unexpectedly, Lin Boqu took the initiative to approach the head of the audit department and said, "You did the right thing. Supervision should start from these small things." Behind this calmness is the profound understanding of supervision by the Communist Party members. Lin Boqu is well aware that if small holes are not filled, big holes will suffer. If the two cent deviation is not corrected, it may breed even greater hidden dangers of corruption. Under his guidance,
