Binjiang Police Affairs-Chapter 991 - 654: City Committee and Municipal Government Provide Support! (3)
Mayor Qian realized, and couldn't help laughing: "This is a good idea, this can solve many of the awards and recognition issues for the personnel participating in the battle."
"Old Qian, you may not believe it, but I've already thought about the awards and recognition issue before most of the troops set off."
Secretary Ye lit a cigarette and laughed: "As for the remaining personnel participating in the battle, we'll take responsibility in Linghai, and you can record third-level merit for everyone in the name of the Linghai City Government. In short, all reserve soldiers who went to Beihu for flood resistance, as long as they made no mistakes during the flood resistance period, each one will be recognized, and at least with third-level merit!"
This isn't as simple as just issuing a certificate and a medal; there's also bonus money to be given!
Mayor Qian calculated for a moment, and smiled: "This amount, the Finance Bureau can still come up with."
"It's a necessary expense, it has to be spent, forcing us into a bit of a passive situation."
"Passive? Secretary Ye, I'm not quite sure."
"Luo Hongxin is stirring up trouble again."
"What kind of tricks is he up to?
Secretary Ye tapped the ash from his cigarette and said angrily: "Customs is financially strong and saw Xu Mingyuan... who was previously our criminal police big commander in Linghai, making a big splash this time. They went to comfort Xu Mingyuan's family, and as soon as they made a move, it was five thousand, reportedly moved Xu Mingyuan's spouse to tears.
The Port Supervision, Fishery Administration, Border Inspection, and Port Authority are neighbors with Customs, upon seeing Customs take the lead, they followed suit, all of them sent their heads to personally visit the families of participants in the battle. These units don't have many personnel participating, no matter how they do it, they can manage.
Luo Hongxin got the news, and relying on the fact that their development zone didn't have many troops participating, decided to follow them.
Made an even grander gesture than Customs, handing out six thousand! We have the most participants, how can we compare? But comrades all went together to support the flood resistance, doing the same work, with unequal pay, surely there will be comparisons, thoughts!"
Fortunately, Old Ge blocked the news, if the news hadn't been blocked, it might've undermined the military morale on the Jingzhou side.
The more Mayor Qian thought about it, the angrier he got, he furrowed his brows and said: "He's sowing discord!"
"We're short on funds; we can only make up for it with honor. Mainly spiritual rewards, supplemented by material ones."
Secretary Ye sighed lightly, then continued: "The commendation ceremony should be held with emphasis, honoring the comrades who supported the flood resistance at Beihu, and also honor the advanced groups and individuals who resisted the flood at home. Leaders from city agencies, government departments, and local towns and streets must attend.
After the commendation ceremony, arrange a dinner at Linghai Hotel, and we, the leaders of the four-member team in charge, need to participate, toasting the comrades table by table. Have the Propaganda Department organize the Cultural Bureau and Federation of Literary and Art Circles to quickly schedule some performances, hold a cultural evening about flood resistance, and after the meal, organize the comrades to watch."
"Alright, arrange it this way."
"This is just the second part, after the commendation ceremony and cultural evening, notify each unit in the form of a document to hold several report meetings on flood resistance stories. In September when the schools start, invite the flood-resisting comrades to each school to speak in person, to give the participating officers a sense of honor!"
Secretary Ye extinguished his cigarette butt, then smiled again: "As for Luo Hongxin, we'll deal with him later. We need to think of a strategy to achieve the biggest results with the least amount of money, making their several tens of thousands spent unnoticeable."
Mayor Qian understood well that Secretary Ye was not one to accept losses easily, he couldn't help but laugh and ask: "What strategy are you thinking about?"
"I'm thinking, can we issue a document regarding reserve personnel treatment. For instance, as long as they serve in the reserve, based on rank, give each person a monthly subsidy ranging from fifteen to twenty yuan. For workers or masses serving in the reserve, give each person a monthly subsidy of ten yuan."
"Is there a precedent for this elsewhere?"
"I had the Armed Forces Department inquire, it seems there is none elsewhere."
"If we do it, let's be the first, Secretary Ye, I think we can implement it!" Mayor Qian thought more and more it made sense, and laughed: "Our Linghai reserve soldiers number less than two hundred, funding isn't much of an issue." 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
"That's why we need to achieve the biggest results with the least amount of money."
Secretary Ye chuckled, then continued: "Subsidies are one aspect; other aspects need consideration. For instance, comrades working in Party and government departments and enterprises should be given priority for promotion under equal conditions. Also, those 'boss officers', invite the People's Congress, Political Consultative Conference and United Front Department to give priority to their political arrangements."
Since it's a document issued in the name of the City Committee and Municipal Government, it has to be formal!
Mayor Qian drew analogies and said: "For those workers and masses serving in the reserve, if injured in the line of duty, they can refer to national agency staff's regulations for injury-related reimbursement, nutrition fees, and lost wages.
If disabled due to duty, they can refer to the regulations for active soldiers' duty-related disability for placement. If sacrificed during a mission, the same comfort can be given as active soldiers' duty-related sacrifice."
Those who contribute to the country, if injured or sacrificed in the line of duty, the country should be fully responsible,
It can be said that this is merely clarifying in the form of a document. But whether clarified or not is completely different; at least it reflects the attention of the Linghai Municipal Committee and Municipal Government.
If this is accomplished, Linghai should be able to be featured again in the People's Liberation Army Daily and China's Civilian Militia.
Secretary Ye contemplated and said: "This work is very important, later I'll arrange for the City Committee Office and Government Office to jointly draft it. The day after tomorrow present it to the Standing Committee for research and approval, striving to implement it as soon as possible."
