From infrastructure to social undertakings: public finance shines in rural areas

In the construction of new countryside, it is the ultimate goal of coordinated urban and rural development to let rural residents have equal public infrastructure, homogeneous living conditions and equal rights in all aspects.

Looking back at the development, the spotlight first showed a blood-boiling data: the central government's investment in "agriculture, rural areas and farmers" jumped from 214.44 billion yuan to10.486 billion yuan, with an average annual increase of more than 20%. This "three rural" expenditure list has enhanced farmers' confidence and courage, and provided a strong backing for the development of rural people's livelihood in infrastructure construction such as roads, electricity and gas, as well as social undertakings such as education, culture and health.

The central and western regions have implemented "two exemptions and one subsidy" for children from poor rural families, and expanded the scope of exemption from tuition and miscellaneous fees for rural compulsory education to the whole country. Throughout the country, tuition and miscellaneous fees in rural primary and secondary schools were reduced or exempted by 654.38+0.5 billion yuan, which raised the hopes of countless rural families.

2.72 million kilometers of rural roads were built and rebuilt nationwide, which solved the drinking water safety problem of 326 million rural people, added more than 30 million rural biogas users, and renovated more than 4.6 million rural dangerous houses. Rural infrastructure construction has made rapid progress;

The number of participants in the new rural cooperative medical system in China is 832 million, and the participation rate is over 97%. The financial subsidy standard for the new rural cooperative medical system at all levels has been raised from 1.20 yuan per person per year to 200 yuan, and the problem of farmers' difficulty in seeing a doctor is being solved.

The rural social security system has woven a huge safety net in rural areas. For thousands of years, China farmers' wishes of "providing for their old age", "getting medical treatment for their illness" and "helping the poor and the needy" are being realized.

From dual development to urban-rural integration: great changes have taken place in rural areas

Historical development tells us that China's "three rural issues" are intertwined, which not only leads to the dual administrative structure and the widening gap between urban and rural areas, but also divides the space for the development of China's productive forces, directly resulting in the imbalance of national economic development.

Therefore, breaking the dual structure of urban and rural areas, coordinating urban and rural areas, coordinating citizens and farmers, and coordinating economic and social development have begun new explorations.

With the acceleration of urban-rural integration, the comprehensive rural reform has been steadily promoted, the pilot reform of collective forest rights has been fully rolled out, a number of new rural financial institutions such as village banks have achieved initial results, and the rural microfinance system has been gradually improved.

The reform has brought unprecedented changes to the rural areas of China, and the rural areas of China have continuously achieved new leaps in the reform.

It is gratifying that Chinese farmers have experienced unprecedented baptism, and their lifestyles, lifestyles, working methods and income distribution have shown a diversified pattern.

The construction of new countryside makes the vast rural areas present a new look of neatness, neatness, civilization and prosperity. Public cultural facilities and projects such as rural libraries, cultural centers, cultural stations, reading rooms and radio and television "every village" have been gradually established and improved, and cultural activities such as movies, operas, songs and dances, and scientific and technological training have been carried out year after year, enriching farmers' spiritual and cultural life. Great changes have taken place in the quality and quantity of rural cultural facilities construction and farmers' cultural life.

Standing at a new historical starting point, we can see that the hard ice of urban-rural dual structure is being broken, and the beautiful picture of urban-rural integration development is gradually being drawn in rural areas of China.
