Challenges
In Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, 58% of its population live in rural areas and the annual rural net income per capita only equals to 75% of China’s average level. Rural areas also face a series of challenges, like inadequate resources, limited investments, weak foundations and lack of talents, so badly need the help and support from the outside.
In terms of the building of rural party organizations, challenges like older party members, low cultural quality, shortage of material basis to unite the mass, and weak cohesive and inspirational forces of rural party organizations, to a certain degree, hinder Guangxi Power Grid Corporation to reconstruct and maintain the power grid in rural areas, which restricts rural development in turn. Therefore, an essential issue in the development of Guangxi Power Grid Corporation is how to build a win-win and mutual development operation pattern for enterprises and rural areas and to promote the harmonious development of society.
Solutions
In order to support the development of rural areas in Guangxi effectively, Guangxi Power Grid Corporation has moved the power supply service stations into party branch joint-building communities, which gets through the last kilometer in providing excellent power supply services. By providing door-to-door service actively and solving power utilization problems on the spot, a series of special service carriers are refined and promoted in practice.
Setting an example for the grass-roots party building, and forming a good pattern for the coordinated development of party building in urban and rural areas
Under the guidance of Guangxi Power Grid Corporation, Nanning Power Supply Bureau, a pilot unit, has organized and guided 158 grass-roots party branches to form joint-building branches with the rural party branches in the same power grid region, thus forming 167 power protection teams to carry out the work of protecting electricity facilities. Party members and bad-off rural party members in the same power grid region have formed 164 assistance-pairs to deepen training on policy theory, power utilization safety, practical techniques and agricultural production. A series of measures, including building teams, venues and mechanisms, are also taken to strengthen grass-roots party branches building of the two concerned parties and to inspire them to play a strong role in fighting bastion, as well as to make party members to set an example for others. Through establishing systems of joint conference and mass appraisal, a long-term mechanism for the overall urban-rural grass-roots party building is established.
Intensifying work on helping and supporting the poor in rural areas, and facilitating electric power reconstruction
Guangxi Power Grid Corporation has launched targeted support and help activities systematically. Providing help to joint-building villages in aspects of mind, life, production and project, the company has signed party branch joint-building agreements with 409 villages in the area and invested a poverty alleviation fund of around RMB 12,000,000 to introduce nearly 350 projects for the joint-building parties, which makes power a brightness line, connection line and wealth line for the new socialist countryside construction.
Chengxi branch of Nanning Power Supply Bureau has carried out joint-building with the party branch of Jingling village Jinling county. Taking five helps and five promotions as a breakthrough point, Chengxi branch set up party member service teams actively and launched 37 activities, like opening green power service access, holding banana competition, and assisting in land amelioration, to improve rural production environment, cultural quality and income level. In order to solve the difficulties of power for production use in the joint-building villages, Guangxi Power Grid Corporation has invested RMB 1,090,000 to support the production development of its joint-building village, Tiandong village Donglan county Hechi city, so as to help peasants make a fortune. Nangning Power Supply Bureau has invested a fund of RMB 7,000,000 to build 47 power tower foundations and 34.8 kilometers 10 kilovolts overhead lines to help Liuxiaopo village, a party joint-building village, to break the bottleneck in power utilization.
Using mechanism to guarantee system advancement, expanding services to overcome power utilization difficulties
Guangxi Power Grid Corporation focuses on guaranteeing the normalizing operation of party branch joint-building from the perspective of institution, like perfecting Guangxi Power Grid Party Branch Joint-building Implementation Rules to specify the working principles, procedures, contents and requirements of joint-building. Thus, a mechanism for Joint-building Agreement is established. At the beginning of each year, the two concerned parties will reach an agreement on the key practical projects and sign the Joint-building Agreement for that very year, and then concentrate efforts to implement the project. Exemplary joint-building party branches are also launched, and 75 exemplary joint-building party branches with distinct themes and of outstanding effects are established in the first batch.
