In May this year, the "Yunling Entrepreneurship Loan" pilot was launched. Through measures such as expanding support objects, increasing loan quotas, striving for optimal interest rates, and optimizing service processes, efforts were made to solve the problems of difficult and expensive financing, and vigorously promote entrepreneurship and employment.
In 2022, Yongren County’s migrant worker Yin Bo and his wife came to the county’s "Xingfuli" community to work and achieve employment at their doorstep. Today, Yongren Xingfuli’s new model of "employment enterprises + employment platforms + migrant workers" has been replicated and promoted across the province, becoming an effective way to solve the "three dilemmas" of difficulty in hiring enterprises, difficulty in attracting people to retain people, and difficulty in increasing income from local employment. Effectively promote the effective connection between consolidating and expanding poverty reduction achievements and rural revitalization.
Employment is the most basic livelihood.

Embrace the concerns of the people
Harmony and stability in frontier ethnic areas
One day during the flood season, from 21:00 to 23:00, the Lushui Meteorological Department issued a series of orange lightning warnings, and the office of the Municipal Flood Control and Drought Relief Headquarters "called" to "wake up" key prevention areas. At 2:35 the next day, inspections and investigations in key areas found that there were rivers overflowing. After 10 minutes, 245 people from 77 households threatened along and downstream of the river were successively transferred to the disaster shelter.
This typical case of risk avoidance is a concrete demonstration of Yunnan Province’s continuous improvement of the flood control "1262" early warning and response mechanism in recent years. The smooth mechanism ensures that the flash flood disaster forecast and early warning information "can be sent, received, and called in response", and ensures that the threatened people should turn around as soon as possible and turn around early, so as to effectively protect the safety of people’s lives and property.

At present, the social work departments of party committees in 16 prefectures (cities) and 129 counties (cities, districts) in Yunnan Province have all completed the hanging deck construction. With the logic of grass-roots governance, social work is effectively coordinated and linked, and the social governance system of co-construction, co-governance and sharing is improved.

short review
People-centered comprehensive reform
"Only by developing for the people can development be meaningful; only by relying on the people can development be motivated." The reform of the social system directly affects thousands of households, and the people-centered value orientation should be more distinct.
The purpose of reform is, in the final analysis, to enable the people to live a better life. A prominent feature of Yunnan Province’s reform is to promote "big reform" with "small incisions". Flood control "1262" early warning and response mechanism, three-year action for high-quality development of education and health, and prevention of student drowning are all based on solving the distress and hope of enterprises, grassroots and the masses, and have promoted the innovation and improvement of a series of mechanisms.
Reform is for the masses, and reform relies on the masses. Yunnan Province summarized and promoted the Yongren "Xingfuli" employment model, and established the "Five Three" pollution control mechanism to promote relevant work to achieve practical results. The investigation and mediation of hidden contradictions, the construction of the "one old and one small" service system, the establishment of national unity and progress demonstration, and emergency early warning response. The implementation of these mechanism innovations cannot be separated from the people.
Whether the reform is good or not, the people have the final say. The reform has entered the deep water area, and the situation is complicated. The people must support or not, approve or disapprove, be happy or not, and agree or not as the fundamental standard for measuring the gains and losses of the reform. (Yue Xiaoqiong)
