1. Main approach: From the survey situation, there are more than 5,000 retired cadres in XX County. The team of veteran cadres is large, widely distributed, rich in experience, influential, in good health, and energetic. They mainly play their roles in the following forms: First, they serve as "senators" for public welfare undertakings and convey positive energy. Lu Xuekong, Zhang Baoting and other veteran cadres who have held leadership positions, relying on their rich experience in political affairs, were invited to participate in and attend important party and government meetings, participate in major decision-making, and contribute to strengthening party building, developing the economy, and progressing social undertakings. The work put forward many valuable opinions and suggestions, and was hailed as a "high political participant" by the society; Han Peichen and Zhang Qifan relied on groups such as the relevant working committee, the Association for the Promotion of the Elderly, and the Senior Citizens Association to conduct investigations and research in communities, towns and other grassroots units, and proposed to strengthen youth education , promote the coordinated development of urban and rural areas, etc., and provide suggestions for the development of various undertakings in our county, which are well received by people from all walks of life; in recent years, the County Public Relations Working Committee has cooperated with the County Charity Association to help more than 1,000 poor and outstanding students, and more than 600 high school students. There were more than 1,200 people, primary and secondary school students, and more than 4 million yuan in donations; the County Elderly Association focused on the overall deployment of the county party committee and the county government on the "Three Cities Joint Creation", adhered to the value orientation of veteran cadres working hard to add positive energy to the party's cause, and gave full play to the veteran cadres Role, strengthen the "Three Cities Joint Creation" volunteer service team, promote the county's "Three Cities Joint Creation" work, and contribute to building a harmonious, prosperous and beautiful new ××. The second is to serve as a "counselor" to nurture the next generation and deliver positive energy. In recent years, a veteran cadre propaganda group has been formed with Bi Xinnian and Shi Yongde as the backbone, and has gone deep into communities, rural areas, and schools to conduct 20 lectures on revolutionary traditions, patriotism, national defense knowledge, legal knowledge, etc., with a total of 53 people educated. 10,000 people; senior education experts such as Lu Xuekong and Yuan Guochun use their summer vacation time every year to go deep into communities such as Qinghua Garden, Mingjun, and Xindi Sunshine City to carry out publicity and education activities of "Safety Education into the Community, Old and Young Join Hands to Create Safety"; at the same time, during the "Qingming Festival" ", "June 1st", "National Day" and other nodes carry out various themed practical activities. The active participation of the majority of veteran cadres plays a positive role in promoting the healthy growth of young people and the harmony and stability of society; the County Elderly Association invites the national "Three "Old" model Pusen and police officers and judicial officers conducted "Three Principles" education for students, played more than 380 patriotic educational films, educated more than 120,000 teachers and students, and registered and classified more than 12,000 left-behind children. Including assistance, 4,000 proposals were sent to primary and secondary schools in the county. During the education and selection activities for child stars who respect the elderly, more than 2,400 child stars were selected and 45 outstanding teachers were selected. The third is to act as a "mediator" in conflicts and disputes and deliver positive energy. Retired cadres such as Shi Yongde and Wang Xuezhi used the County Elderly Association as a platform to form the "Five Elders Mediators" with veteran cadres, veteran teachers, veteran party members, veteran soldiers, and veteran models who have a good mass base, high moral standing, and good health, and go deep into conflicts and disputes. , mediate civil disputes in villages, groups and communities with frequent public security cases, educate the masses to change their customs, and advocate and guide the masses to live a positive, healthy and progressive lifestyle. Over the years, 613 elderly associations in counties, townships and villages with nearly 10,000 members have mediated more than 20,000 civil disputes. Some elderly support issues have been resolved, family planning issues have been dealt with, civil conflicts and disputes have been resolved, and the interests of the people have been protected. , which has effectively promoted the county's economic development and social stability. This experience has been fully recognized by the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee and has been promoted throughout the city, province, and country. The fourth is to act as a "propaganda" for the elderly culture and deliver positive energy. Veteran calligraphy and painting enthusiasts, with Zhao Jing'an and Du Baiquan as the backbone, rely on the platform of the Elderly Calligraphy and Painting Research Association to actively organize and carry out colorful cultural and artistic exchange activities for the elderly. For example, calligraphy and painting exhibitions are held every year during the Double Ninth Festival, and also during National Day and important festivals. Calligraphy and painting exhibitions with different themes show the good spiritual outlook of veteran cadres of "learning, doing something, and having fun when they are old"; they promote the cultural retirement of veteran cadres, enrich and activate their cultural life; and further inspire the veteran cadres The passion to contribute their remaining energy and build the Chinese dream ensures that the old comrades are politically firm, their ideals will last forever, and their ideas will always be fresh. In addition, some veteran cadres who are good at calligraphy and painting also volunteered to write and paint for the general public on the occasion of the Double Ninth Festival and the Spring Festival, and were widely welcomed by the masses. The County Elderly Calligraphy, Painting and Poetry Research Association has become a beautiful landscape in the construction of ×× civilization. The fifth is to act as a "counselor" for continuing education for the elderly and deliver positive energy.
XX County Veteran Cadre University has been running for 25 years. It has turned the school into a position for ideological and political work for veteran cadres, a classroom for learning modern scientific and cultural knowledge, a place for cultural and entertainment activities, and a platform for the elderly to make a difference and serve the society, making the school continue to develop. , the attraction is growing. The number of students in the school has increased to more than 700. It has been praised many times by the Provincial and Municipal Party Committee Veteran Cadres Bureau, and was commended by the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department and the Provincial Party Committee Veteran Cadres Bureau as "the advanced collective in the 20th anniversary of the establishment of the Provincial Veteran Cadre School". Comrade Li Haishan, the former executive vice president, was awarded the honorary title of "Advanced Individual for the Role of Veteran Cadres in the Province" by the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government, and was awarded the honorary title of "Outstanding Communist Party Member" by the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee and the Bureau of Veteran Cadres of the Provincial Party Committee, and was awarded The honorary title of “National Advanced Individual in Aging Work”. 2. Existing problems Our county has achieved good results in giving full play to the positive role of veteran cadres, but there are also some shortcomings, mainly in the following aspects: First, the ideological concepts are not fully understood. Judging from the investigation, a few department and unit leaders do not have enough understanding of the positive role played by veteran cadres. They believe that veteran comrades are older and their role is insignificant and will cause other problems such as health. In addition, there are already many people and they have retired. It will be difficult to arrange things if Hugh comes again. In addition, some old comrades are bound by ideological concepts and lack the initiative to play a role. They believe that they have been busy for most of their lives. Now that they are old, their body and energy are not what they used to be. They should take a good rest after retirement to maintain good health and Being mentally happy is the main task after retirement. Second, organizational guidance is insufficient. The unit where you work does not support you enough. In terms of caring and supporting veteran cadres to play their roles, some units only pay lip service and fail to implement it into actions. There is not much support in terms of housing, space, equipment, books, newspapers, magazines, transportation, and expenses for veteran cadres to play their roles. The desire and conditions for veteran cadres to play a role are restricted. Third, the knowledge and abilities of veteran cadres cannot be updated and improved in a timely manner. After some veteran cadres retired, their living circles were relatively narrow, and they were unable to keep abreast of new situations and changes in a timely manner. They were unable to understand and absorb advanced experience from other places. They did not understand the policies at the top and the reality at the bottom. As time went by, especially a group of experienced Retired cadres with professional knowledge are increasingly unable to adapt to the needs of social development, making them unable to perform their roles. Fourth, the social atmosphere is not strong. First, the news media’s coverage of the role played by veteran cadres is not deep enough and breadth is insufficient. Veteran-related departments do not do much to promote model training and lack public opinion guidance. Second, family support is insufficient. The support from veteran cadres’ families is the most rare and most effective. However, some family members believe that people should take care of themselves after retirement and should not serve in the society. These concepts restrict and influence the role of veteran cadres. Fifth, there is a lack of evaluation and incentive mechanism. At present, provinces, cities and counties have not introduced relevant evaluation and incentive systems for the performance of veteran cadres. The role of veteran cadres is mostly due to their own spiritual state of not asking for rewards and being indifferent to fame and fortune. As a work that requires long-term development, relying solely on the personal dedication of a few highly respected veteran cadres is obviously not in line with the rhythm and requirements of the times. Relying only on the coordination and contact of a few units such as the Bureau of Veteran Cadres, there is a long-term lack of effective evaluation and incentive systems at the provincial, municipal, and county levels. This is not conducive to scientific and effective evaluation of the role of veteran cadres, and is not conducive to promoting advancement and mobilizing the enthusiasm of all parties. 3. Suggestions and reflections: First, education and guidance should be provided to consolidate the theoretical foundation for veteran cadres to play a positive role. Pay attention to strengthening political awareness education, effectively implement the political treatment and rights of veteran cadres, including their rights to know, participate, and supervise, pay attention to education on political theory, policy current affairs, and political discipline, and educate and guide veteran cadres to stand firm, have a clear-cut stand, take the overall situation into consideration, and support develop. At the same time, we must pay attention to pre-retirement education and provide education and training to cadres who are about to retire. The original unit must carry out positive energy education and guide post-retirement learning activities to overcome the negative thinking of "retirement is retirement" and lay a solid foundation for adding positive energy. Continue to extend the coverage of education for the elderly, and gradually promote the construction of education systems for the elderly in townships and towns, so that the vast number of veteran cadres and comrades living in the countryside can easily receive re-education, learn new knowledge, develop new skills, keep pace with the times, and improve their ability to participate in society. It is necessary to regularly hold special report meetings for veteran cadres or invite veteran cadres to participate in various situation analysis meetings and report meetings, so that they can always maintain political firmness, new ideas, and eternal ideals. The second is to stimulate enthusiasm and create a humanistic environment for veteran cadres to play a positive role.
To give full play to the role of veteran cadres, we need to create a good environment, build a platform for veteran cadres to actively participate in economic development and the construction of the three socialist civilizations, build a bridge for veteran cadres to make contributions and exert their remaining energy, and build an activity room and communication mechanism for veteran cadres. Create a strong atmosphere of respecting the elderly, and vigorously publicize the advanced deeds of veteran cadres who have contributed to building a harmonious society through various information publicity channels of the department, and publicize the excellent qualities of veteran cadres who selflessly contribute to the development of social and economic undertakings without seeking fame or profit. By setting up advanced examples of "doing something for the elderly" and carrying out activities to become advanced individuals for "doing something for the old", we can inspire veteran cadres to make new contributions and make new contributions to promoting the leap-forward development of the county's economy and society. The third is to build a platform to expand the service areas where veteran cadres can play a positive role. It is necessary to combine the actual situation of veteran cadres, take the opportunity of enriching the spiritual and cultural life of veteran cadres, give full play to the role of veteran cadres in various activities, innovate the ways in which veteran cadres play their roles, and mobilize the enthusiasm of veteran cadres. For example: organizing collective entertainment activities, organizing regular trips to other places every year, organizing regular health lectures, organizing square dancing, Tai Chi and other social exchange activities, so that they can enjoy their old age in a healthy and positive state. At the same time, a community service management platform will be built. Make full use of community resources, increase the content of services, give full play to the role of veteran cadres in community construction, community party building, community spiritual civilization construction, etc., so that veteran cadres can study nearby, move around, receive care and play their roles nearby. The fourth is to improve the mechanism to provide logistical support for veteran cadres to play a positive role. Improve the organizational guarantee mechanism and give full play to the role of the veteran cadre work leading group in overseeing the overall situation and coordinating all parties. Formulate and introduce preferential policies to form a pattern in which veteran cadres exert positive energy under the leadership of the government, absorption by society, and independent development. Establish a multi-channel mechanism to attract veteran cadres to participate in social services, and provide required information and necessary assistance for veteran cadres to actively participate in activities. At the same time, a funding guarantee mechanism will be established. Through financial subsidies, unit fundraising, social fundraising and other channels, a fund for the elderly should be established to provide necessary venues, facilities, transportation and other support for veteran cadres to play their roles, meet their reasonable needs, and protect their enthusiasm for work. At the same time, we must provide reliable safety guarantees for veteran cadres to play their roles, and take necessary safety insurance measures based on their physical conditions to ensure the personal safety of veteran cadres. Adding positive energy to the party's cause is an important mission assigned by our party to veteran cadres under the new situation. In the historical journey of building socialism with Chinese characteristics and realizing the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, XX County will organize the majority of retired cadres to release positive energy and make greater new contributions.
