新春伊始,万象更新。最引人注目的一新,便是从党的总书记到各级领导干部纷纷下乡、下厂、下学校、下街道,到群众中去。领导干部、领导机关下基层,这是我们党的优良传统,当前强调这一点,不是在一般意义上的改进领导作风和改进工作方法,而是通过这一传统的发扬光大,进一步恢复党和人民群众的血肉联系,使党能团结人民顶住风浪,战胜困难,永远立于不败之地。党的建设的历史经验证明,没有人民群众的支持,党一天也不能生存,党就是在与人民群众的血肉联系中产生、发展、壮大起来的。人民的支持是力量之源,胜利之本。过去如此,现在仍然如此。没有人民的理解,就不可能克服治理整顿中的困难;没有人民的支持,也不可能顶住国际国内的政治风浪。然而,共产党执政以后,脱离群众的危险性增大;在现实中,党内也确实存在脱离群众的消极、腐败现象,影响党群关系、干群关 The beginning of the new spring, Vientiane update.
