Model of being "Close to the People, Close to Work" - the connection between CPV and the public
To advance the study and adherence to Ho Chi Minh's ideology, morality, and style, the Bau Bang District Party Committee has instituted several effective models, including the "Close to the People, Close to Work" initiative. This model facilitates engagement with the community, allowing for a deeper understanding of the thoughts, feelings, and aspirations of the populace. It not only fortifies the vital connection between the Party and the citizens but also fosters a spirit of service, responsibility, and dedication among cadres and Party members.
Cadres engage with grassroots communities and attentively listen to the voices of the people
The Bau Bang District Party Committee consistently emphasizes the importance of effective Party building and the consolidation of a robust political system, asserting that this can only be achieved by fostering close relationships with the populace, understanding their needs, and demonstrating genuine care for them. From this principle, the initiative "Close to the People, Close to Work" was developed and is now widely implemented from the district level down to the communes and towns. This approach not only represents an innovative strategy in government mass mobilization efforts but also serves as a practical application of the motto "Respecting the people, being close to the people, understanding the people, learning from the people, and being accountable to the people" in contemporary contexts.

Implementing the model of "Close to the people, close to the work," the leaders of Bau Bang district, along with cadres and party members from communes and towns, consistently engage in meetings and discussions with the community. Through these direct interactions, the working delegations have focused on the lives of the residents, conducting visits to understand their thoughts and aspirations. Consequently, the community has provided genuine feedback and offered recommendations on matters directly pertaining to their obligations, rights, and social issues.
The model "Close to the people, close to the work" emphasizes the importance of listening to individuals as they express their frustrations and challenges stemming from real-life experiences. This approach allows for the identification and comprehensive resolution of issues by the government. A notable aspect of the model is the openness and strong sense of responsibility demonstrated by the leaders of the Party Committee and government. Citizens can distinctly perceive the care and proximity extended by these authorities. |
According to statistics, seven commune and town party committees have over 2,000 registered party members associated with 2,663 households. By the end of 2024, more than 11,600 party members are expected to regularly engage with the community, understanding their thoughts and aspirations, thereby fostering a close and intimate relationship between cadres, party members, and the populace. Through this initiative, party members have actively disseminated the Party's guidelines, policies, resolutions, and the laws and policies of the State, particularly those pertinent to the lives of the people. The primary propaganda themes include Conclusion No. 01-KL/TW of the Politburo regarding the continued implementation of Directive 05-CT/TW; central resolutions; Regulation No. 144-QD/TW on revolutionary ethical standards, as well as the socio-economic development situation and local security and order, all of which have been communicated to the public in a timely and effective manner.
Through meetings and discussions with the community, numerous pressing issues have been addressed promptly. Over the past year, officials from Long Nguyen district and commune have consistently visited and engaged with two households, Mr. Pham Quoc Phuong and Mrs. Vo Thi Dinh, who reside in Long Binh hamlet, Long Nguyen commune. During these interactions, district and commune officials conveyed the Party's guidelines, policies, and relevant state laws that directly impact the lives of the residents, while also promoting the study and adherence to Ho Chi Minh's ideology, morality, and lifestyle. They provided information regarding the socio-economic landscape and political security both nationally and locally. Concurrently, residents reported that the Long Binh intersection frequently experiences flooding during rainfall and has potholes, which hinder travel. In Ho Muon hamlet, Ms. Hoang Thi Day raised concerns regarding drainage culverts in the area that have led to landslides affecting her family's property. The working group has duly noted these concerns and forwarded them to the appropriate authorities for prompt resolution.
Practical efficacy, robust dissemination
The model of "Close to the people, close to the work" extends beyond mere dialogue; it is designed to effectively address issues arising at the grassroots level. The legitimate recommendations from the populace, upon receipt, are categorized and assigned to the appropriate authorities for monitoring, resolution, and timely response. This approach minimizes the occurrence of prolonged petitions and escalations, fostering a strong consensus among the community. Furthermore, the model plays a vital role in enhancing the political acumen, management capabilities, and ethical standards of the cadre and civil service team. Rather than remaining confined to office environments, officials are encouraged to engage with grassroots communities, fostering proximity to the populace, gaining insights from their experiences, and enhancing their sense of responsibility and commitment to service. This model has significantly strengthened the vital connection between the Party, the government, and the citizens, promoting unity and solidarity throughout society, and serves as a foundation for the successful execution of socio-economic development initiatives within the locality.
The "Close to the people, close to work" model in Bau Bang district exemplifies an initiative that effectively implements the Party's policy of enhancing the role of public oversight and social critique. The community has genuinely become the focal point and active participant in the development process. Each meeting and interaction serves as a platform for citizens to express their views, listen, comprehend, and engage in the collective effort to enhance their homeland. This approach has played a significant role in maintaining political stability, ensuring security and order, fostering patriotic initiatives, and advancing the construction of new rural areas, civilized urban environments, and sustainable socio-economic development within the district.
