The Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, which is of great historical significance, focused on promoting the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity under the condition that China adheres to the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, and adopted the decision of the CPC Central Committee on several major issues concerning upholding and improving the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, promoting the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity. This is our party's great declaration at the historical intersection, which fully reflects the new requirements of the development of the party and the state in the new era and the new expectations of the people.
China's petroleum and chemical industry is the pillar industry of the national economy. In the past 70 years since the founding of the people's Republic of China, the brilliant development of the industry has fully reflected the superiority of the socialist system in China. When the people's Republic of China was just founded, China's petroleum and chemical industry had a weak foundation, poor foundation and few products, with a refining capacity of only 160000 tons / year. Moreover, there are still many gaps in China, which can not meet the needs of the development of new China. In order to develop the petroleum and chemical industries, China will give full play to the superiority of the socialist system, and concentrate its efforts on major issues. As early as during the first five year plan period, the "three major chemical industries" have been established in China. Soon after the discovery of natural gas in Sichuan, a number of small-scale nitrogen fertilizer enterprises have been established in China. After the discovery of natural gas in Sichuan, China has also made every effort to build the first "gas head" medium-sized fertilizer plant in China.
In the early stage of reform and opening up, China introduced advanced technology and equipment from abroad for the chemical industry by using extremely valuable foreign exchange resources, which greatly promoted the rapid development of China's petroleum and chemical industry. In the 1990s, the industry first proposed the development strategy of "big company, big group and big base", which was fully affirmed by the party and the state, and promoted in the national industrial field. Subsequently, a number of large companies, groups and bases in the industry have been built one after another, the industrial concentration has been greatly improved, and the competitiveness has been continuously enhanced. With the improvement of China's governance ability, the petroleum and chemical industry has formed a good situation in which state-owned enterprises and private economy are developing hand in hand. With the encouragement of the opening policy of the country, especially the &ldquo and the &rdquo of the belt and road, the more and more oil and chemical enterprises in China &ldquo, go out &rdquo, and rise rapidly in the international market. Nowadays, the comprehensive strength of China's petroleum and chemical industry has ranked the top in the world, which makes the world stand out.
Today's world is undergoing a great change that hasn't happened in a hundred years. With the development of the times, our party fully realizes that the competition between countries is not only the competition of economy, politics, military, talent, but also the competition of system. At the Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, it was proposed that adhering to and developing the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, and promoting the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity are not only a long-term strategic task, but also a major practical issue.
Needless to say, in recent years, with the rapid development of China's economy and society, the reform of China's governance ability lags behind the objective needs of the reform in the new era and the actual needs of the market economy. For example, in some places of our country, there are some phenomena, such as the excessive intervention of administration to the market subject, the unclear coordination of the role of government and market in the allocation of resources, and the lazy administration in the administration, which all restrict the sustainable development of our country's economy to a certain extent.
The petroleum and chemical industries have the same feeling and strong response to the restriction brought by the lack of governance capacity, and are looking forward to the modernization of governance capacity of the country. In recent years, because the reform of governance system lags behind the economic development, the industry has been greatly affected. For example, in some places, "one person gets sick and the whole family takes medicine" is forced to shut down every safety and environmental protection accident. In some places, the "one size fits all" rectification of chemical enterprises is carried out in the environmental storm. In some places, small enterprises are forced to shut down on the basis of eliminating backward production capacity. In some places, the number of small enterprises in chemical parks is limited The behavior of "cutting one's feet to fit one's actions" and the excessive behavior in some places in the process of capacity reduction, etc., have brought great trouble to the sustainable development of the petroleum and chemical industry, and to a certain extent, exposed the deficiencies in the governance system and capacity of our country.
System is the foundation of the country. Looking at the experiences and lessons of 70 years' Governance in China, without a good system, there can be no achievements; without further improvement of the system, there is a risk of losing good achievements. It is precisely because of these problems that our party takes the situation into consideration, stands in a higher historical position, and fully recognizes the urgency and necessity of promoting the modernization of the governance system and governance capacity. General secretary Xi Jinping pointed out in the the fourth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee of the party: “ in the new era, we must plan for deepening the reform in an all-round way. We must adhere to the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, promote the modernization of the state governance system and governance capacity, grasp the requirements of China's development and the trend of the times, and put the system building and governance capacity building in a more prominent position. &This is a strong guarantee for our party to cope with risks and challenges and win the initiative.
The petroleum and chemical industry firmly supports the decision made at the Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee and is full of expectations for the modernization of China's governance system and capacity. We fully believe that with the continuous enhancement of our governance capacity, the whole industry will usher in a better development environment.
