| Senior Chinese leader Zhou Yongkang has called for strengthened, innovative social management in order to better address social problems and promote social justice and social order. Government departments nationwide should "simplify their working procedures, enforce laws in a strict, impartial and civilized manner, and subject their work to the supervision of the masses," Zhou, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, said Wednesday at a televised national conference. Zhou, who is also the director of the Central Committee for Comprehensive Social Management, called on government departments to enhance efforts to stabilize the rising population, and reinforce the management, education and support of former offenders and people under community correction. Zhou also asked for better management of private companies, non-government organizations (NGOs), Internet-based activities and telecommunications networks. At the meeting, Zhou said that government departments need to "improve their abilities to crack down on, prevent and control crime, and to handle emergencies." Zhou also stressed that more manpower and material resources should be devoted to enhancing social management at the grassroots level, and laws and regulations regarding social management should also be improved. |
