"Barefoot Doctor": Public History and Private Memory

Wen Chen Yingfang

For readers, reading those social history texts that take "our own life yesterday" as the research object, especially those aimed at restoring and analyzing the daily life world of ordinary people, will bring some "adventure"-"the past is a foreign country", which may be necessary and possible for historians and social science researchers. As a witness of the life/events of that era, when readers accept the "history" constructed by researchers, they may activate their memories intentionally or unintentionally, and then pursue more "what happened" and "why". At the same time, they may feel various contradictions between personal experience and objective history, including doubts that "you seem to be in it". You may even feel the discomfort of personal memory being distorted, corrected, or even personal feelings, life experiences, etc.-the historical view of "contemporary history-free" exists not only in academic circles, but also among readers.

Nevertheless, it is still a kind of luck for readers to see the rise of contemporary social history research. Through the research of scholars, we can re-understand those past lives. They are not only an objective reference for us to sort out our memories and understand our personal/family history, but also, if we are interested, we can use other materials, including various memoirs, oral records and local chronicles, to try to exert our sociological and historical imagination, cross the barrier between public history and private memory, and enter a freer and broader knowledge world.

In Fang Xiaoping’s book "Barefoot Doctors and Modern Medicine in Rural China", "Jiangcun" is the field investigation point of his empirical research. Although the author came from sociology and adopted ethnographic methods of anthropology, he defined this study as a historical study, so his real name was used in the book. Jiangcun was once a people’s commune in the 1960s and 1970s, and now it is a street in Xihu District, Hangzhou. The author introduces the evolution of Jiangcun administrative divisions and the case significance of its medical system to the history of barefoot doctors in China.

In the research of anthropology and sociology, it is a common qualitative research method to discuss some attributes and characteristics of China society or the evolution process of the system from the case of a village and a place. In fact, this is also one of the main methods that the author has practiced for many years. This method requires researchers to have a better insight into the social system and various structural forces behind the case, as well as the deep logic of social changes. Fang Xiaoping’s method has the corresponding consciousness of his academic transformation from social science to social history research, which makes us truly see the excellent text of "Understanding China from one place" —— from tracing back to the local medical world, excavating local chronicles and field materials (especially in-depth interviews with relevant groups), to introducing and analyzing the background of national system and its social structural strength, etc. This research presents us with a sincere and rigorous academic text of contemporary social history.

However, as a reader, I am still curious about the "Jiangcun" in the book: it is the name of a people’s commune, and the book also mentions that it is a "central village". What is its specific settlement form and social attributes? In the context of modern China, "village" can be understood as a natural village, or an administrative division level in rural areas, and it may also be the name of a place. As far as I know, most of the party and government organs of people’s communes in the twentieth century were established in market towns.

According to the relevant information in the book and on the Internet, Jiangcun was originally a market formed in the early years of the Qing Dynasty, and was once known as "Jiangcun City". Although geographically adjacent to Hangzhou, it has been an independent "township" in administrative divisions since the Republic of China, but more often it has been divided or merged into different townships, and it has belonged to different districts and counties (Hangzhou County and Yuhang County) in different periods —— that is to say, if it is put back to the historical process, "What village is Jiangcun" is indeed a long story.

In any case, Jiangcun was a people’s commune in the suburbs of Hangzhou when the barefoot doctor system was implemented in the twentieth century, and it was also a town where the commune institutions were located. For such a place, it is certainly not difficult for us to define and understand it in the category of "China rural society". For a long time, even in the administrative divisions of municipalities directly under the central government or provincial capitals, except for some industrial satellite cities, suburban counties are usually classified as "rural areas", and they belong to two different management systems: urban and rural. Up to now, there is still a distinction between "street" and "town" and "township" in the framework of grassroots social administration in urban suburbs. At the same time, different from the county-level city in the administrative level, the county as an administrative division and the county-level society in the sociological perspective, including small and medium-sized towns, still belong to the rural society in the national governance system and some academic paradigms.

But this does not prevent readers from having different perspectives and imaginations-everyone will see China from a "special place" of their own, and understand the world according to their own knowledge inventory and thinking habits. "XX City" and "XX City" were once very common town names in the south of the Yangtze River around Taihu Lake Basin. Because the author grew up and worked in this area for a long time, the name "Jiangcun City" naturally reminds me of the concept of "Jiangnan Town", and from this, I can understand the society described by Fang Xiaoping and imagine the life world that the author did not involve in the book. Although my field visits to these places and the research topics involved are very limited in my sociological research career for many years, the towns in the south of the Yangtze River are indeed one of my starting points for seeing China, and the "city-town-township" relationship model in the south of the Yangtze River formed since the Ming and Qing Dynasties is also an important basis for me to think about the urban-rural continuum.

Jiangnan research is an important field in academic circles. In recent years, some studies have attracted much attention because of their re-evaluation of the development level and significance of towns in Jiangnan area in Ming and Qing Dynasties. Influenced by it, in my own investigation of urban community life in Pudong, Shanghai in the past few years, I began to try to understand what changes have taken place in the "suburban rural areas" in Shanghai during the People’s Commune period and the relationship between cities, towns and villages in other counties in the south of the Yangtze River, and what kind of logical relationship exists between those changes and the current "urbanization" or "suburbanization".

As we know, in the 1950s and 1970s, in order to develop heavy industry, the country put the emphasis of industrialization and urbanization on the central and western regions, and "Mr.’ s postpartum life" was also an important principle of urban planning and municipal management during the socialist construction period. In this process, the construction of towns in the southeast coastal areas has stopped for a long time. However, the stagnation of urban development does not mean that the society remains unchanged-although the dense urban network in Jiangnan during the Republic of China, its physical form and spatial distribution were basically preserved before the end of the 1970s.

First of all, in terms of administrative divisions, according to the scale and spatial distribution, the towns in the south of the Yangtze River are divided into central towns and rural markets. The central town is usually the location of commune institutions. Some residents in the town are classified as "urban residents" because they work in party and government institutions, cultural, educational and health units, or are arranged to continue to engage in industrial and commercial activities, and some elderly residents who are unable to engage in agricultural labor. The rest of the residents who were originally engaged in non-agricultural labor were mostly classified as agricultural registered population, and were arranged to engage in agricultural labor in production brigades around the town (generally called "vegetable brigade" or "town production brigade", etc.). Other towns within the commune are generally classified into production brigades around the market town, and the residents in the market town are generally classified as agricultural registered permanent residence, engaged in agricultural production, except for a few people engaged in non-agricultural occupations.

Secondly, with the collectivization of industry and commerce, the socialist transformation of ownership, and the promotion of policies such as unified purchase and marketing of agricultural products, the government closed down the market in the town and a large number of shops along the street in the central town. In the market of non-central towns, except for the extension shops of supply and marketing cooperatives and credit cooperatives, only individual agricultural and sideline products market trade points (dynamically regulated by the government) and teahouses are generally reserved. That is to say, during the social turning point in the 1950s, the town society in the south of the Yangtze River actually experienced a process of rural development, including the agricultural population and the rural space.

At the same time, the medical resources in the villages and towns in the south of the Yangtze River showed a process of gathering in the central towns. As Fang Xiaoping described in his book, since the early 1950s, the government has required private clinics and individual practitioners to organize and set up joint clinics. This policy has been widely implemented. Take Changshu County, Jiangsu Province as an example. Private clinics and medical practitioners originally scattered in towns, markets and villages around the county began to organize in 1951, and by the end of that year, 51 joint clinics had been established. Outside the county, joint clinics are mostly established in central towns and market towns (some joint clinics set up branches in other market towns in the township). By 1957, the number of joint clinics had grown to 91. However, at the beginning of the following year (1958), the government asked the joint clinics in various townships to be unified and merged, and a township-run private hospital was established in the central town of the commune (renamed "commune hospital" after the establishment of the people’s commune in September of the same year). By 1962 (in January 1962, 14 communes and a farm belonging to Changshu County were classified as the newly established "Shazhou County", which is now Zhangjiagang City), there were 33 commune hospitals and commune joint hospitals in Changshu County, which were renamed as "commune hospitals" in 1965. In this process, the number of self-employed doctors in society decreased rapidly, accounting for about 21.8% of the total number of local medical practitioners in 1957, and basically disappeared in 1958.

The author was born and raised in a town in Dongxiang, Changshu. At different times in history, the local area was once the central town where districts, townships and communes were located. In addition to the central town, there are several rural market towns in the commune (three in the early 1950s, one of which was later included in another commune). There is a hospital and a "medicine shop" in the town. Recently, because of reading Fang Xiaoping’s research, I looked curiously at the medical career in the local town records, and found that doctors in local towns and villages were distributed all over the country during the Republic of China. In addition to the clinics of internal medicine, surgery and gynecology in several towns, some doctors practiced in the countryside. Some of them were famous doctors handed down from generation to generation, and some came from local famous gentry families. There are four "medicine shops" in the central town, and one and three in the other two market towns.

That is to say, doctors and pharmacies that were originally distributed in various towns and villages closed down one after another in the 1950s, or concentrated in the central town of the commune. Such a change in the medical system in villages and towns in the south of the Yangtze River is undoubtedly beneficial to the government’s management of the medical industry and health care system, as well as to the government’s promotion of epidemic prevention and the improvement of medical technology, including the setting of hospital beds, the allocation of medical equipment and the training of medical staff. But at the same time, the medical resources in the township society were unified and concentrated in the central town of the people’s commune. Such a gathering of medical resources will undoubtedly increase the difficulty for farmers to ask for medical treatment. In the author’s opinion, the organic commercial system and living space of city-town-country, which has been formed for a long time in Jiangnan since Ming and Qing Dynasties, was changed in the rapid social changes in the 1950s, which inevitably affected the daily life of farmers. In fact, this constitutes a realistic background that local grass-roots governments began to restore agricultural and sideline products trading points in some market towns in the early 1960 s and set up "comprehensive stores" and semi-medical and semi-agricultural health workers in production brigades.

This perspective may also be used to explain why the earliest barefoot doctor appeared in Jiangzhen, Chuansha County, Jiangnan area in 1965. As Fang Xiaoping pointed out, the barefoot doctor system, which was officially named and popularized in the late 1960s, is actually an extension of the original brigade health worker system.

In the book, Fang Xiaoping convincingly shows, with empirical data, that factors such as the efficacy of western medicine in quickly treating diseases and price changes are important factors for farmers to widely accept western medicine. In this process, barefoot doctors have played an important media role. But as far as my experience is concerned, the popularization of western medicine is also influenced by the industrialized system.

Traditional Chinese medicine has always been an ordinary medicine in small towns in the south of the Yangtze River. I still remember seeing the dregs dumped in the middle of the road on the roads around the town. It is said that patients believe that the dregs they have drunk will be cured quickly if they are trampled by many people. But since I was a child, I don’t seem to have the impression of drinking Chinese medicine, and I don’t remember cooking Chinese medicine at home in those days. When I think about it today, it’s not because my parents reject Chinese medicine, but because there is a clinic for western medicine in their work unit. Workers and their children in the factory will go to the clinic if they have a cold, cough or various minor illnesses. The factory doctor is a female doctor assigned from the county seat. She can directly prescribe prescriptions, fill prescriptions and give injections.

Parents’ unit is the early product of the country’s socialist industrialization. When the Korean War broke out in 1950, because the United States imposed a cotton embargo on China (cotton was not only the raw material of cotton textile industry, the pillar industry of China’s light industry at that time, but also the strategic material needed to make explosives), the government immediately managed the domestic cotton purchase and vigorously promoted cotton planting. At the same time, the government set up a state-owned cotton processing factory in the cotton planting area as quickly as possible-the factory where my parents were located was established in 1951 and put into production that year. Similar to the third-tier factories established by the state in the central and western regions, the unit provides various internal service facilities and welfare benefits for the daily life of employees and their children. Many of our children basically grew up in the factory as "children in the factory".

Recently, looking through the town records, I accidentally saw that there were three local western doctors practicing medicine in the countryside during the Republic of China. In addition to one in the central town and another market town, there is also one in a private ginning factory in the town-it turns out that there is a precedent in the local town for enterprises to hire western medicine to practice in the factory. This made me realize that the popularity of western medicine in urban and rural areas in the south of the Yangtze River is closely related to the development level of commodity economy and the degree of industrialization in history. Different from traditional agricultural labor, in modern factories, one worker holds one post, and the physical condition of employees is directly related to the normal operation of machines and the production efficiency of enterprises. It is not difficult to understand that business owners have a demand for western medicine that can cure diseases quickly.

This can also be used to explain the formation mechanism of the "labor insurance and medical care" system after 1949. According to the local records of Changshu County, when the new regime was established in 1949, several factories in the county provided free medical benefits for the employees of this unit. Since 1951, some qualified state-owned factories, enterprises and institutions have implemented "labor insurance medical care". In addition to free medical care for employees, their immediate family members have enjoyed half-fee medical care, and some larger units have started to run their own medical and health care rooms. It is reported that in 1952, 12 factories in the county implemented labor insurance medical treatment, and in 1959, the number of such units increased to 132 (benefiting 12,900 employees). By the end of 1970s and 1980s, some collective enterprises began to set up health care rooms in factories. At the same time, due to the rapid rise of township enterprises in southern Jiangsu, the number of employees enjoying labor insurance medical care in the county increased to 200,000 in 1985.

These medical history information in local history made me realize that the history of industrialization constituted an important mechanism for the popularization of western medicine in China, and the formation of labor insurance medical system had been gradually promoted from bottom to top.

As far as I can remember, most of the cases in which factory workers were sent outside for medical treatment due to serious illness were due to work-related accidents. At that time, if workers were disabled at work, they would get medical/living security. There was a master in the factory who lost a foot in an accident, and later installed a prosthetic foot, and has been working in the original technical post. In the 1980s, a young worker lost an arm in an accident, and was still left in the asset management team of the enterprise until the factory was finally transformed. As for the story of employees’ serious illness medical treatment, from childhood to adulthood, what I heard most from the old employees was my father’s business. "Your father got tuberculosis when he was young. At that time, we all felt that he was definitely dying. I didn’t expect to be cured." My father’s lung attack was at the beginning of the factory, and I was not born yet. I asked my father about it several times later, and every time he replied simply: "That’s because the country bought me Remifentanil medicine with foreign exchange." On one occasion, he also mentioned that for his recovery, the factory canteen once cooked special nutritious juice for him every day.

Tuberculosis, commonly known as "consumption", was an infectious disease that was similar to a terminal illness until the invention of the specific drug "Remifentanil" (isoniazid, synthesized by German doctor of chemistry in 1912, started clinical trials in new york in 1951, and was first listed in the United States by Roche in 1952). In the fifties and sixties, although there were specific drugs abroad, they were still rare in China. In some memoirs published in recent years, we can also see the past when someone in Shanghai used gold to entrust relatives and friends in Hong Kong to buy medicine. As an ordinary employee of a local state-owned enterprise, my father was able to get such medical treatment, of course, not because of his special political status. I believe that it is mainly because of his skills. Under the industrialized national system in the 1950s and 1960s, it should be a special case for the scarce senior technicians.

Looking back today, we can easily see some logics of the allocation of national medical resources in the era of socialist industrialization under the background of the Cold War-that is, utilitarian logic with the characteristics of giving priority to efficiency, means obeying goals, and results being more important than everything else. Under such logic, the developed areas of the former commodity economy in the southeast coast have experienced a process of de-urbanization, including the spatial agglomeration of social medical resources. At the same time, a social system of differentiated allocation of national medical resources has been gradually established among different occupational groups. In the late 1960s, the rural cooperative medical system and its barefoot doctor system appeared under such a social background. It is a great pity that such a system was structurally and more finely applied to the new medical security system in the later social evolution.

Based on the same logic, in that special country’s industrialization period, workers and their labor and life were once endowed with the attribute of "public" and were considered to have the value of "for the country", which needed the protection of enterprises and the state. In contrast, in the tide of industrialization since the 1990s, workers have been relocated to the capital market, which has given hundreds of millions of farmers the opportunity to enter the labor market freely. But at the same time, the meaning of "public" of labor is gradually dissolved, workers’ lives are classified into private areas, and even the identity of "workers" is replaced by special labels such as "migrant workers", "migrant workers" and even "factory workers". These changes are attributed by some scholars to different thoughts or doctrines, and what I see from the empirical social history is the continuity of the logic of state governance.

Since the flood in North China, Hong Kong business circles have donated money to china charity federation through the Liaison Office, and they have been thanked by the Liaison Office for their kindness. Li Ka-shing’s son, Li Zekai, chairman of Pacific Century Development Group, personally donated HK$ 20 million to china charity federation last Monday (7th) through the Liaison Office of the Central Government in Hong Kong to help local disaster relief. Li Zekai said that as a Hong Kong businessman, he should watch out for each other and contribute his bit, calling on more Hong Kong people to pay attention to help the victims return to normal life as soon as possible.
Zheng Jiachun, Chairman of New World Development Co., Ltd. and Chairman of Chow Tai Fook Jewelry Group Co., Ltd., also personally donated 20 million yuan to china charity federation last Wednesday (9th) to help the local disaster relief work. Zheng Jiachun said that if one party is in trouble, all parties will support it. The disaster in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei affects the hearts of all colleagues in the group. As a member of the Hong Kong compatriots of the motherland, he is willing to help each other and join hands with the people of the whole country to help the disaster-stricken areas resume production and life, and contribute to the early reconstruction of their homes.
Last Thursday (10th), Lee Shau Kee Fund donated 20 million RMB to china charity federation through the Liaison Office of the Central Government in Hong Kong to support flood control and disaster relief work in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei and Northeast China.
Li Jiajie, Chairman of Henderson Land Group, said that the disaster always touches everyone’s heart. I hope that through this donation, we can help the affected compatriots to tide over the difficulties and carry out post-disaster reconstruction. In addition, on August 11th, Kerry Group also donated HK$ 30 million.
Li Jiachao emphasized that Hong Kong attaches importance to trade and investment relations with the EU.
Lee Ka Chiu John, Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) posted on social platforms today (17th) that last week he hosted a luncheon for Thomas Gnocchi, director of the European Union Office in Hong Kong and Macau, and consuls-general and representatives of 13 EU countries. At the meeting, he shared with all the guests the views of the Hong Kong SAR Government on some major economic and political issues.
Li Jiachao pointed out that the EU has always been a very important trading partner of Hong Kong. The 27 EU member states are Hong Kong’s third largest trading partner in commodity trade. In 2022, the bilateral merchandise trade volume between Hong Kong and the EU reached HK$ 524 billion, and 1,600 EU companies were located in Hong Kong.
Lee Ka Chiu John went on to point out that Hong Kong is a bridge connecting eastern and western cultures and provides endless opportunities for all countries. Hong Kong has a good business environment, low tax system, free capital flow, rich multicultural talents and international professional services. These advantages have helped European Union and foreign enterprises to flourish in Hong Kong, enter the vast markets in mainland China and Asia, and do business in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. He stressed that Hong Kong attaches great importance to its trade and investment relations with the EU, and will strengthen ties with the EU offices in Hong Kong and Macao and the Consul General in all aspects.
Lee Ka Chiu John also visited the Hong Kong International Cuisine Institute today (17th) to learn about the latest development of local professional training courses in Hong Kong and the new trend of the global catering industry, and to listen to the views and suggestions of the Institute and the trainees on enrollment training and employment development respectively. Lee Ka Chiu John thanked the College for its efforts in cultivating culinary talents over the past years, so that students can develop their skills and careers according to their personal interests, realize their personal dreams and "create a better tomorrow" in this home of Hong Kong.
During this period, Lee Ka Chiu John said that the Hong Kong SAR Government will continue to attract more young people to join the apprenticeship training in the future. As the saying goes, "being the best in one’s profession", anyone can make a difference in different industries with enthusiasm and hard work. Hong Kong is a diversified international city, and people with different specialties are needed to display their strengths in various industries to enhance Hong Kong’s competitiveness, vitality and charm! Li Jiachao pointed out that Hong Kong’s food culture is world-famous, and he often sees Hong Kong-style cuisine when he visits various places. As Asia’s capital of fine wines and delicacies, Hong Kong’s unique cooking culture should be passed down so that visitors from all over the world can savor the "Hong Kong flavor".

Liang Xi: There must be targeted deployment for different passenger groups.
Mainland tourists are back in Hong Kong, and the market is booming, but some local businesses still point out that business is not as good as before the epidemic. Liang Xi, a member of the Hong Kong Legislative Council, today (17th) posted a message on the social platform about the current situation of Hong Kong’s tourism industry, pointing out that the tourism preferences of mainland tourists have undergone structural changes, and it is necessary for Hong Kong’s tourism industry to make different arrangements for different groups of tourists with high, medium and low production.
Source: Liang Xishe’s platform picture
Liang Xi described that Hong Kong is "too rich for mainland tourists, and the middle class is too low cost-effective". In addition, the exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar with the US dollar is at a disadvantage, which makes mainland tourists unattractive to shop in Hong Kong. Regarding the shortage of manpower in the local service industry, Liang Xi mentioned that the "post-90 s" and "post-00 s", which are the main consumers in the Mainland, are deeply influenced by online celebrity culture, and most mainland merchants are proud of online celebrity’s presence, and they are hospitable to them for positive publicity opportunities; However, local food shops are extremely unfriendly to mainland bloggers and online celebrity. They think that online celebrity has dominated Zhang Biao and set up video cameras to "stop eating", which makes them indifferent, impolite and even shut out. As a result, it is not only difficult to get publicity, but even in turn it is publicly criticized.
Liang Xi pointed out that different arrangements should be made for different groups with high, medium and low production. For high-consumption groups, many top-level activities in Hong Kong are still quite attractive, including private yacht cruise activities and high-end box horse racing activities. For family customers, it is necessary to improve the cost performance ratio. For example, tickets for Hong Kong attractions such as Disney, Ocean Park and Palace Museum are sold in packages with mainland Greater Bay Area attractions, so that tourists outside Guangdong can save money and visit the Bay Area in one breath, and drive them to Hong Kong. He also suggested that Hong Kong should increase the design of special attractions, such as TVB Guzhuang Street, which is familiar to mainland tourists.

It is worth noting that in the past few days, the Hong Kong police cracked down on illegal acts such as overcharging taxi drivers and "white-brand cars" in Lantau Disneyland. Yesterday (16th), two more taxi drivers were arrested.
Police officers in disguise boarded a private car without a taxi license outside Disneyland yesterday afternoon. The 43-year-old driver received the fare after arriving at his destination in Sha Tin, and was arrested by the police on suspicion of "illegally using the car for rental or passenger reward" and "driving without third-party insurance".
At about 10 pm on the same day, law enforcement officers disguised as mainland tourists were picked up by a 69-year-old taxi driver and picked up at a hotel in Sha Tin at a higher fare than normal. In the process, the driver did not start the meter to collect fees by the meter, nor did he show his taxi driver’s ID card, and was arrested by the police on charges of "soliciting passengers", "overcharging fares" and "not showing his taxi driver’s ID card". The taxi has been towed to Tai Lam Chung Vehicle Detention Centre for further inspection.
Hong Kong Customs launched "Sniper" anti-drug operation to crack down on online shopping drug trafficking cases.
The Customs and Excise Department held a press briefing today (17 August) by the Narcotics Bureau of the Customs. At the briefing, the media were briefed on the achievements of the "sniper" anti-drug operation of the Customs and Excise Department. From June 12th to August 11th this year, the Customs and Excise Department launched an anti-drug operation codenamed "Sniper" for two consecutive months. A total of 23 drug trafficking cases were detected, two men were arrested and about 68 kilograms of drugs were seized, with a total value of about 24 million yuan.
Chen Mengdi, commander of the Airport Investigation Team of the Drug Investigation Bureau of Hong Kong Customs, said that online shopping is popular now. After ordering goods, citizens will transport them to the overseas warehouses of the container transportation company. When the container transportation company contracts a certain amount of goods, they will transport the goods to the warehouses in Hong Kong for unpacking, and inform the recipients to pick them up at the pick-up point or smart cabinet, or arrange for them to be delivered to the designated places according to the customer’s requirements.

In the first half of this year, the Customs and Excise Department found that there was an increase in the smuggling of drugs into China by drug cartels. After risk assessment and intelligence analysis, it raided a number of container companies, inspected suspicious packages and successfully seized drugs. In the operation, officers cracked 23 cases of eucalyptus trafficking, seized 68 kilograms of drugs with a market value of 24 million yuan, and arrested two men aged 17 and 64 respectively.
Chen Mengdi said that cannabis was the most seized drug, about 35 kilograms; Followed by ketamine and ice, with 22kg and 11kg respectively. The parcels involved were mainly from Europe and America, and the parcels contained drugs ranging from 1 kg to 9 kg respectively. Drug trafficking syndicates will hide drugs in air fresheners, cat crawlers, shampoo bottles, industrial appliances, interlayers of packaging materials, snacks or clothes under the cover of daily necessities.

The two arrested men, including a 17-year-old boy, collected two packages containing about 7 kilograms of big twist at Ho Man Tin’s self-collection point, and intended to bring drugs to his apartment in Ma On Shan. Another 64-year-old man, a truck driver, received a package containing 5 kilograms of ketamine at the self-reporting point in Tai Po. At present, two people have been released on bail pending further investigation.

The National Development and Reform Commission and others jointly announced the List of the Third Batch of National Regional Medical Center Construction Projects.

  In accordance with the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, in October 2019, the National Development and Reform Commission, together with the Health and Health Commission, the Bureau of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the Secretariat of the the State Council Medical Reform Leading Group (hereinafter referred to as the "four departments"), launched the pilot work of the national regional medical center, selected and identified 26 pilot projects in two batches, and gave investment support from the central budget. Judging from the first batch of pilot projects, phased results have been achieved: high-quality medical resources have been introduced to fill the gap in the pilot areas, the local medical service level has been continuously improved, and the patient transfer rate has dropped significantly. Export hospitals have increased the output of brands, talents, technology and management, and the scope of service radiation and brand influence have been continuously expanded, which has played a leading role in deepening the demonstration of medical reform. For example, after Zhengzhou Hospital of Beijing Children’s Hospital was put into operation, the number of visits to Beijing Children’s Hospital in Henan Province decreased by 63.1% and the number of hospitalizations decreased by 51.3% in 2020. 52 innovative technologies of Fudan Zhongshan Xiamen Hospital fill the gaps in Fujian Province and Xiamen City, and the proportion of third-and fourth-grade difficult operations in superior departments such as cardiac and thoracic surgery exceeds 95%. The proportion of foreign patients in Chongli Hospital of the Third Hospital of Beijing Medical University is 47.4%, covering 25 provinces and cities such as Beijing, Tianjin and Shaanxi.

  In order to speed up the realization of "staying out of the province due to serious illness", according to the requirements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, on the basis of summing up the construction experience of eight pilot provinces, the four departments issued the Work Plan for Orderly Expanding the Construction of National Regional Medical Centers, and included 12 provinces such as Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps with relatively weak quality medical resources into the construction scope. Around the 59 project plans declared by the local authorities, the four departments have conducted in-depth understanding and comprehensive evaluation of the project progress by organizing centralized reports, centralized feedback and suggestions, and organizing experts to conduct on-the-spot (video) research. According to experts’ opinions, we agreed in principle to 24 project plans reported by Hebei, Inner Mongolia and other provinces as the third batch of national regional medical center construction projects, and asked relevant parties to speed up the preliminary work of the project, start construction and put it into use as soon as possible, and continue to deepen substantive cooperation, so that the masses can enjoy fair and accessible high-level medical services as soon as possible.

  According to the preparation and promotion of the project, some projects that can’t meet the requirements of the national regional medical center construction for the time being, but the conditions are relatively mature, will be included in the list of "counseling" and will be included in the next batch of evaluation as national regional medical center construction reserve projects. In addition, after evaluation, three pilot projects, including Liaoning Hospital, Cancer Hospital of China Academy of Medical Sciences, will be included in the "warning category" list, which will be focused on and urged.

[Theoretical Roundtable] How to understand the profound connotation of promoting the construction of a community of human destiny

  Set the theoretical thinking and collect everyone’s words. The column of "Theoretical Roundtable" closely follows the theoretical hotspots and pays attention to the theoretical trends.

  Theme of this issue:Report to the 20th CPC National Congress pointed out that China has always adhered to the foreign policy purpose of safeguarding world peace and promoting common development, and is committed to building a community of human destiny. The important concept of the community of human destiny has distinct originality, truth, times and practicality.

  It is the core idea of the supreme leader’s diplomatic thought to become a clear banner of China’s diplomacy in the new era.

  Huang Yibing, vice president of the Central Academy of Party History and Literature Research, wrote that since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has stood at the height of the development process of human history, considered problems from the perspective of the overall interests of the whole world and all mankind with a broad international vision and broad feelings for the world, profoundly revealed the objective reality and development law of interdependence among countries in the world and closely linked human destiny, and clearly pointed out that "this world has increasingly become a community of destiny with you and me". Put forward global development initiatives and global security initiatives, propose to build a world of lasting peace, universal security, common prosperity, openness, tolerance, cleanliness and beauty, and promote the building of a community of human destiny. Once this important concept was put forward, it constantly demonstrated the power of truth in guiding practice and gained wide support in unity and cooperation. Promoting the building of a community of human destiny has become a clear banner of China’s diplomacy in the new era, which is the core concept of the supreme leader’s diplomatic thought. While advocating the important concept of the community of human destiny, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader creatively proposed to promote the construction of a new type of international relations featuring mutual respect, fairness, justice, cooperation and win-win, and embarked on a new path of state-to-state exchanges, which opened up a practical path and created fundamental conditions for building a community of human destiny.

  It is an important part of the essential requirement of Chinese modernization

  Xu Xiujun, the supreme leader of China Academy of Social Sciences and a researcher at the Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought Research Center for the New Era and the National Global Strategic Think Tank, believes that The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China(CPC) comprehensively summed up the historical achievements of China’s diplomacy as a big country with characteristics in the past decade, clearly put forward that promoting the building of a community of human destiny is an important part of the essential requirements of Chinese modernization, and scientifically planned a new strategy to promote the building of a community of human destiny in the new historical period.

  He made a new strategic judgment on the international situation of building a community of human destiny. Report to the 20th CPC National Congress of the Party pointed out that "the change of the world, the change of the times and the change of history are unfolding in an unprecedented way". This major judgment has clarified the new historical orientation of building a community of human destiny. In the new historical period, the international forces are profoundly adjusted, and the short-term factors and long-term factors affecting the development and change of the international situation are intertwined, and the world is facing new turbulent changes. Human society is facing unprecedented challenges, so the goal and task of promoting the building of a community of human destiny is highly complex and extremely arduous, and people of all countries need to work together and forge ahead. At the same time, the growing global challenges have made the concept of a community of human destiny more deeply rooted in people’s hearts, and the historical trend of peace, development, cooperation and win-win is unstoppable. In this context, the world once again stands at the crossroads of history, and where to go depends on the choices of people of all countries. This shows the people’s initiative and historical initiative in building a community of human destiny. As the creators of history, people of all countries will eventually make the right choice, follow the path of the world, and constantly unite the progressive forces to promote the development of human society. This is the historical trend of the international community to promote the building of a community of human destiny.

  China’s plan to answer and solve the question of the times facing the world today

  Gong Yun, vice president and researcher of Marxism Institute of China Academy of Social Sciences, wrote that the Communist Party of China (CPC) is a political party for the happiness of China people and the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, as well as for the progress of mankind and the great harmony of the world. Report to the 20th CPC National Congress of the Communist Party of China put forward "promoting world peace and development and building a community of human destiny" and regarded "promoting the building of a community of human destiny" as one of the essential requirements of Chinese modernization. The important concept of building a community of human destiny is a Chinese plan to answer and solve the problems of the times facing the world today. It is the right way to bring happiness to the people of the world. It has led the diplomatic theory and practice innovation of a big country with China characteristics, drawn a blueprint for the common development, sustained prosperity and long-term stability of human society, and embodied China’s global vision, world mind and great country responsibility of unifying its own development with world development.

  To promote the building of a community of human destiny is not to replace one system with another, nor to replace another civilization with one civilization. Instead, countries with different social systems, ideologies, histories, cultures and levels of development share interests, powers and responsibilities in international affairs, forming the greatest common denominator for building a better world.

  Building a community of human destiny is the goal and direction, and building a new type of international relations with mutual respect, fairness, justice and win-win cooperation is the premise and path. The essence is to embark on a new road of state-to-state exchanges and open the way and create conditions for building a community of human destiny.

  China’s program to promote the progress of human society and world peace and development

  Yang Jinwei, a special researcher at Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought Research Center of Shandong Supreme Leader in the New Era, mentioned in the article that promoting the building of a community of human destiny is the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core. From the strategic height of coordinating the overall situation of the great rejuvenation strategy of the Chinese nation and the unprecedented changes in the world in the past century, and focusing on the common interests and common well-being of all mankind, the Chinese plan to promote the progress of human society and the peaceful development of the world is an important part of the diplomatic thought of the Supreme Leader, with lofty ideas, profound thoughts and rich connotations, which shows the mind of our party.

  If the world is good, China can be good; If China is good, the world will be better. Building a community of human destiny is a beautiful goal, and it is also a goal that needs relay running from generation to generation.

Hello Erebati ~

Two days ago, sisters spoke out, and online celebrity’s life was not as good as that of a fake celebrity.

The demon sister who loves powder immediately changes her taste and must be arranged.

She is a famous lady on a certain color platform.

The new home I just moved into is a super flat floor in Xuhui District, Shanghai.

The first half of the sentence has no other meaning, just to show that she has more than one house in Modu.

According to the suspected community revealed by informed netizens, the demon sister checked and the house price was 12.8w/ flat.

Boldly predict that the new home will be tens of millions bigger.

Interior furniture, the cheapest is Hermes dining table.

She likes to collect all kinds of cups, and she has bought hundreds of thousands since she blew herself up.

Before the epidemic started, she was busy flying around the world for a holiday.

First class is really nothing. After all, as long as she travels far away, she must charter a private jet directly.

Go out to play, how can you sweep the goods without a counter?

Patek Philippe, Van Cleef & Arpels and other watches drink milk tea more frequently than sisters.

D-colored diamond ring with the most frequent appearance, 7 Klado.

You know, the wedding ring of a big baby is only 5.53 carats.

However, she is very frank, revealing that she bought loose diamonds for processing and did not give the brand a chance to earn a premium.

The Hermes bag that the lady comes standard, she starts with the color system.

Ordinary rare skin, which one to mention.

Demon elder sister doesn’t deliberately cue a lady who can only share with her mother-in-law, so she understands naturally.

There are also luxury brand-name seasonal shows and ready-to-wear clothes, which were also reserved for her by sa in advance.

Just … ridiculously rich.

After the outbreak, she could only "bend over" the domestic counters.

With strong purchasing power, Shanghai Henglong specially arranged a close-up photo with the stars for a VIP like her.

(Jackson Wang’s gentleman’s hand is too absorbing ~)

Van Cleef & Arpels asked her for promotion.

Patek Philippe invited her to visit the source mansion.

Chanel and Dior told her to go to Paris to see Gao Dingxiu and attend a private exhibition.

Attending Guerlain’s Heilan Dinner is an equal with Guerlain’s top management.

She and Cheng Xiaoyue have been good friends for many years.

Who’s Cheng Xiaoyue? Ryan’s ex-girlfriend.

I often play with Wu Qianyu.

With Taiwan Province socialite and jewelry collector Zhang Peiru.

And ….. This one doesn’t need special introduction, does it? Gigi Lai, a famous actor in Hong Kong.

This elder sister has enough consumption power, and her social circle is either rich or expensive.

What’s the story?

Her name is @ Fat Lady’s Happy Life. Real name Wang Ying, English name Elvin.

A native Shanghai girl.

Even a single eyelid, also do not lose aura, is a little bump face JJ Lin.

I accepted this setting at one point … (I took the liberty)

According to Mrs. Fat, she runs a company and invests in medical beauty.

And opened a flower shop.

Judging from the public information, she did serve as a shareholder and senior executive of the two companies.

(Two legal persons have been cancelled)

Young and promising fat wife, therefore, as an independent woman, boarded an exclusive interview with Hongxiu Fashion Weekly.

Sister Yao thought,A fat wife is a rich and beautiful woman who has been pampered since childhood with a golden spoon in her mouth..

I didn’t expect her to share her family of origin, which was not as beautiful as in fairy tales.

Her parents divorced when she was very young. She grew up with her grandparents.

However, God closed a door for her and opened a 360 panoramic skylight for her.

The fat lady met her fat husband.

Mr. Pang’s real name is Zhang Xiayu (eric), is also a native of Shanghai.

I studied in America and was a rich second generation.

As for the appearance, why is it a bit of a mouth?

Sister Yao must be blind.

Mr. Fat’s love for his wife is like a day for ten years.

It’s the ninth year since they got married, and it’s still like a love period.

On various festivals, Mr. Fat will buy flowers, give gifts, book restaurants, or travel together for a holiday.

The first time I tried tattooing, I tattooed my fat wife’s birthday on my shoulder.

It indicates that she will be on her shoulders all her life.

Mr. Fat can provoke Mrs. Fat’s fans to write long praises without writing memo poems.

Perhaps, this is the ability of money.

In addition to being the husband of Mrs. Fat, Mr. Fat also runs a taxx bar in Shanghai.

This bar is known as the largest and number one nightclub in Shanghai.

Even Ryan, the cheetah cub, couldn’t help getting into the stock.

It is said that during the peak season, the daily turnover is all up to 7 figures.

Taxx second store opened in Yan’ an Hotel, it is expected that the rent is as high as 3600w W.

Last year’s Eve, the deepest booth directly sold for 40w.

Ding Lei, the founder of Netease, "raises pigs" during the day and "moonlights" as a DJ in taxx at night.

Wang Sicong is also a frequent visitor to taxx.

In addition to the taxx bar, Sister Yao found through the eye-catching that Mr. Pang owns at least six companies.

The registered capital ranges from 500-2000w W.

From this point of view, Mr. Pang can also be regarded as a promising young rich second generation.

It’s much better than focusing on the small opening of the old.

And Mrs. Fat and Mr. Fat already have two lovely daughters.

Now, the fat lady is still pregnant with three children, and the expected date of delivery is not far away.

A lady in Xuhui District, Shanghai, who has no worries about food and clothing, a happy family and a quiet life.

U1s1, it’s the winner’s setting.

[Going to the grassroots in the New Year] Keep your last shift of the high-speed rail line "Minesweeper" Lao Cao’s Spring Festival travel rush diary

  Another year in Spring Festival travel rush, the staff of the railway system ushered in the most tense and busy moment of the year. It is the wish of every railway person to send every passenger home safely and comfortably. With the popularity of high-speed rail in recent years, "safe, comfortable and fast" high-speed rail has become the first choice for people to travel safely. This simple six-word evaluation is not so easy to do, and there are countless railway people behind it to make a comfortable experience for passengers. The responsibility of the 54-year-old high-speed rail passenger Lao Cao is to ensure the absolute safety of the high-speed rail line. China Net reporter Zheng Liang photo

  Lao Cao (Cao Huipeng), who has more than ten years’ experience in high-speed rail works, was transferred from high-speed rail maintenance foreman to an additional passenger of high-speed rail EMU five years ago, and was responsible for checking possible safety hazards in high-speed rail lines every morning. The specific duty is to take a "exploring car" (also known as a confirmation car) at dawn every day before the first train of the high-speed rail line in charge to confirm whether the equipment of the line is normal and whether the line condition meets the operating conditions of the high-speed rail. China Net reporter Zheng Liang photo

  Less than 4 o’clock in the morning, when the workers who finished the line maintenance had not returned to the dormitory to rest, Lao Cao had taken his work equipment and went to Beijing South Railway Station to start his day’s work. China Net reporter Zheng Liang photo

  There are almost no passengers at the station in the early morning. Every day when Lao Cao works, he will be the first person to arrive at the station in the Tim Cheng group. China Net reporter Zheng Liang photo

  After arriving at the station, Lao Cao will take a selfie and send it to the work group, and report to the dispatcher at the back by phone, telling him that he has been on standby at the station to start work. In the past five years, when he became a high-speed train EMU to confirm the addition of passengers, the self-portrait of the station in the early morning became the most numerous type of photos in his mobile phone. China Net reporter Zheng Liang photo

  Lao Cao’s job today is to confirm the route of Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway from Beijing South Railway Station to Tianjin West Railway Station. The departure time of the first bus on that day was 6: 36 in the morning, while the departure time of the confirmed bus that Lao Cao took was around 5: 10. The passengers on this bus were only the driver, the mechanic, the public works confirmed the addition of passengers (Lao Cao) and the power supply confirmed the addition of passengers. China Net reporter Zheng Liang photo

  The first thing to do after getting on the train is to debug the portable line inspection instrument. Lao Cao needs to visually inspect the line during the train running. This machine will provide signal feedback on different road sections, and there will be alarm prompts on problematic road sections to provide data basis for line confirmation. China Net reporter Zheng Liang photo

  Portable line inspection instrument, high-definition camera, video recorder and special mobile phone are indispensable tools for Lao Cao every working day. China Net reporter Zheng Liang photo

  After reporting to the dispatcher, it is confirmed that the train will start. Because the cab of the high-speed train EMU is streamlined, it is impossible to accurately observe the line except for the driver’s position. Therefore, in the process of work, the tall old Cao can only stand in the driver’s cab with this posture of "standing half-bent and unable to sit down", plus the need for high concentration at work, and that kind of hardship can only be realized by himself. China Net reporter Zheng Liang photo

  During the driving process, Lao Cao’s eyes are always fixed on the track. At a speed of nearly 300 kilometers per hour, Lao Cao should observe whether there are foreign objects in the track area, whether the peripheral equipment such as bridge fences and noise barriers along the way are damaged, and whether the construction around the railway affects the driving. Occasionally, he will look down to see if the portable line checker will have alarm light feedback. At the same time, in the process of increasing the speed of the train, Lao Cao also needs to feel the shaking of the train with his body to judge whether there is a safety hazard. China Net reporter Zheng Liang photo

  Because high-speed trains will be added at night in Spring Festival travel rush, many "skylight points" that could have been checked and no trains passed have been cancelled or compressed. Therefore, it is more important to confirm the inspection of train routes. China Net reporter Zheng Liang photo

  At about 5: 45 in the morning, it was confirmed that the car arrived at Tianjin West Railway Station. Lao Cao quickly packed his personal equipment and left the carriage. At the same time, he immediately took out his work mobile phone and contacted the command center to report the line situation. At this time, it is only about half an hour before the first bus of the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway starts on that day. China Net reporter Zheng Liang photo

  Back to the office of the work area, Lao Cao will immediately transfer the data collected by the equipment on that day to the computer. At this point, Lao Cao’s routine work will be over every day, but during his stay in Spring Festival travel rush, Lao Cao will continue to be on standby. In case of unexpected situations, such as bad weather such as rain and snow, Lao Cao will also have a temporary boarding task. In his memory, he once slept for three hours within 48 hours. China Net reporter Zheng Liang photo

  The 54-year-old Cao will retire in April, which is the last time he participated in Spring Festival travel rush. Lao Cao, who entered the railway system in 1988, can be said to have witnessed the development of high-speed rail in China. From the lineman to the crew, Lao Cao has experienced the whole process from the joint commissioning and trial to the opening of the Beijing-Tianjin and Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail lines.

  This year is his 32nd Spring Festival travel rush and his last Spring Festival travel rush. He can’t remember how many times he paved the way for the EMUs that flew by the Beijing-Tianjin intercity and Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail lines. I only remember that this is my own job, which is related to the travel safety of hundreds of millions of passengers, and I must not make any mistakes.

  "To tell you the truth, it’s really a little reluctant to retire soon. Now I haven’t thought about what to do after retirement. Let’s stand on this last shift first, so that so many passengers can get home safely and smoothly, which is what we are most gratified as railway people." Lao Cao also said that he should be able to finish his work at noon on New Year’s Eve this year, and he can accompany his family to eat the second Spring Festival reunion dinner since he went to work in the railway in the evening.
