Chapter 1011 Millennium
On the eve of New Year's Day.
Liu Tao returned to Beijing to attend a meeting.
There was an exciting news at this meeting, that is, the number of counties (cities, districts) that have basically popularized nine-year compulsory education and basically eliminated illiteracy among young and middle-aged people has reached 2,430.
This is undoubtedly a feat!
Looking at the world, only China can invest so much energy, financial resources and manpower in literacy work!
The meeting decided to commend a group of outstanding educators at the town, county, city and province levels on Teacher's Day on September 10 next year, which is the millennium, and the state will commend 30 outstanding educators nationwide, and this group of outstanding educators are all from the grassroots!
It is actually not easy to achieve this step!
But this is not the end, on the contrary, it is just the starting point.
In the future, China will continue to improve the average education level of the country, and continue to increase investment in education to cultivate more college students, graduate students and doctoral students to meet the needs of all walks of life for talents.
Up to now, colleges and universities have actually abolished the allocation system and changed to enterprises recruiting from colleges and universities.
Government units and public institutions, on the other hand, must pass the civil service examination and public institution examination. Only a small number of selected students can enter directly or a small number of social talents can be specially recruited.
The huge employment pressure of college graduates in the future is actually a happy trouble for this era or for other countries.
And this situation will not appear in China at least for more than ten years!
It was also at this meeting that the amendment to the Interim Regulations on Civil Servants was discussed and passed.
As early as April 24, 1993, the "Interim Regulations on Civil Servants" was issued, and this time some regulations were amended after six years of practice.
At present, the country implements civil servants and public institutions. For ordinary people, it seems that both are the same, but there are huge differences.
First of all, the nature of identity. The identity of civil servants is administrative, and the identity of public institution personnel is public institution; secondly, in terms of career stability, civil servants do not need to pay public insurance, while public institution staff have to pay unemployment insurance. Public institutions implement contract employment and sign labor contracts, while civil servants do not need to sign labor contracts under the same circumstances.
In terms of salary and benefits, civil servants are obviously much higher than public institutions.
In terms of career development, civil servants can be promoted and enjoy section-level treatment after working for a certain number of years, while public institutions can only increase their salary based on their professional titles.
In terms of the nature of work, civil servants are mainly engaged in national administrative affairs, while public institution personnel are mainly engaged in social welfare work or non-profit work.
Now civil servants' positions are divided into leadership positions and non-leadership positions. Non-leadership positions refer to clerks, section members, deputy chief section members, chief section members, assistant investigators, investigators, assistant inspectors, and inspectors.
The levels of civil servants are also divided into 15 levels, which is a huge difference from the 24 levels back then.
In addition, the meeting discussed the issue of raising social wages again.
As for the most important discussion, it was about the Qinghai-Tibet Railway.
The Qinghai-Tibet Railway is a "sky road" that starts from XN City, QH Province, passes through Golmud City, Kunlun Pass, Tuotuo River, crosses Tanggula Pass, and enters the snowy areas of Anduo, Nagqu, Dangxiong, Yangbajing, and LS. It is 1,956 kilometers long and is an important route into Tibet. It is also the highest altitude and longest plateau railway on frozen soil in the world. Once completed, it will be a century-old project and a monument in the history of world railway construction.
The total investment of the entire project is 33 billion yuan!
And this money comes from national funds, that is, central funds.
Next, the country will start another wave of infrastructure construction, which has been brewing for several years.
And the exchange rate of the US dollar to the RMB will drop from 1:4 to 1:8!
This means that the central bank has to print a lot of money to ensure the corresponding wealth!
The last day of 1999 passed quietly, and the world officially entered the year 2000.
From then on, on the first day of the millennium, the 20th century was no longer called this century, but the 20th century of the last century, and this century was called the 21st century.
It was also on New Year's Day that the Panshan Group Headquarters Office issued a notice for the year-end party group meeting.
On this day, Liu Tao took his secretary and guards to travel around the country.
The incident at the Huaxia Petroleum gas station left a deep impression on Liu Tao. He wanted to see if there were any gas stations that dared to commit crimes against the wind, and if there were any other companies that dared to commit crimes against the wind.
At the mid-year party group meeting, Lin Luman, who took over as the leader of the Panshan Group Discipline Inspection Team, also led a group of troops to go down and take a look.
Throughout 1999, for Panshan Group, rectifying unhealthy tendencies was the top priority of its work, and a group of people were killed severely.
Facts have proved that the human heart is a bottomless pit. Even with relatively high salaries, some people are still not satisfied and want to get more. They think they should earn more and think it is natural to get more.
The fact is that high salaries to maintain integrity is not really flawless, and there are still many shortcomings.
Many people regretted crying and begging for forgiveness when they were arrested, but it was too late.
Liu Tao's instructions were to be strict and severe, and to severely rectify the unhealthy tendencies, so as not to let a bad apple spoil the whole pot of porridge.
The various cases are shocking and worthy of warning, and they involve various jobs and companies. Many incredible things happened!
These people have to be said to be smart people, but they don't put their intelligence where it should be.
There are even a group of top students here, but unfortunately they did not stick to their true intentions and went astray.
Of course, there are many things that make Liu Tao feel gratified. For example, retired cadres reported their children, or couples reported their lovers, etc. This shows that the overall situation is good, and there is no big problem that Liu Tao is worried about. Area collapse.
This time, Liu Tao used a surprise inspection, such as suddenly going to a gas station to refuel, and then randomly checking the quality and quantity of fuel to see whether the Huaxia Petroleum gas station maintained quality and quantity.
There are also random inspections of gas stations to see if there are any random promotions, sales of food or drinks, and temporary inspections of gas station employees eating, etc.
We also randomly go to a Panshan Group company to conduct spot checks, such as going to the canteen to see if it has been outsourced, how the food in the canteen is, whether employees are extravagant and wasteful, etc.
Last year, an incident was discovered. In a sixth-level company of Panshan Group, the general manager of the company secretly outsourced the canteen to his relatives to make profits from it.
The general manager of that company was held in a public trial of all employees in the company and was sentenced to life imprisonment.
