Qiushi magazine editorial department
"The greatest achievement of the United front work in the new era is to form an important thought on doing a good job in the United front work of the party in the new era in practice, and put forward a series of new ideas, new ideas and new strategies on strengthening and improving the United front work."
The United front is an important part of the party’s general line and policy, which has played an important role in different historical periods of China’s revolution, construction and reform. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the people of the Communist Party of China (CPC), represented by the Supreme Leader, have put forward a series of new ideas, new ideas and new strategies on strengthening and improving the United front work, profoundly answered major questions such as why the United front is needed in the new era, what kind of United front is needed, how to consolidate and develop the United front, and formed the important thought of General Secretary Supreme Leader on doing a good job in the United front work of the Party in the new era, and opened up a new realm of the modernization of Marxist United front theory in China.
From July 29th to 30th, 2022, the Central United Front Work Conference was held in Beijing. This is an important meeting with milestone significance on the eve of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and the centenary of the United Front Policy put forward by our Party. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader attended the meeting and delivered an important speech, which pointed out the direction for the development of the United front cause in the new era and provided fundamental follow-up. The article "Complete, accurate and comprehensive implementation of the important thinking on doing a good job in the party’s United front work in the new era" is part of the important speech of the General Secretary. In this important article, the general secretary fully affirmed the historic contribution of our party’s United front work in the past century and the historic achievements made in the new era, and systematically explained the new ideas, new ideas and new strategies formed in the United front work since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China from twelve aspects, which is highly political, ideological, theoretical and instructive. General Secretary Supreme Leader’s important thought on doing a good job in the Party’s United front work in the new era is a profound summary and wisdom crystallization of the development of the Party’s United front work in the past century, especially the practice of the United front work in the new era. It is an important part of Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era and the fundamental guideline of the United front work in the new era. The whole Party must implement it completely, accurately and comprehensively, and promote the United front work in the new era to create a new situation continuously.
"We must give full play to the important magic weapon role of the United front"
"We must consolidate and develop the broadest patriotic United front, draw the greatest unity of building a strong country and national rejuvenation, unite and unite our strength, forge great achievements through struggle, and jointly write the magnificent chapter of Chinese modernization!"
On the morning of December 29th, 2023, in Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference Auditorium, Party and state leaders, such as the Supreme Leader General Secretary, got together with leaders of democratic parties, the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce, representatives of personages without party affiliation, heads of relevant departments of the central and state organs, and representatives of people from all walks of life in the capital to talk about friendship, discuss the country and welcome the new year together.
Establishing the broadest United front is an important magic weapon for the party to defeat the enemy and to govern and rejuvenate the country. In July 1922, the Second National Congress of the Communist Party of China passed the Resolution on "Democratic United Front", which marked the formal proposal of our party’s United front policy. On October 4, 1939, Comrade Mao Zedong summed up the United front as one of the three magic weapons for the Party to defeat the enemy in the China Revolution in his "Introduction to communist party People". In November, 2021, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China’s Resolution on the Great Achievements and Historical Experience of the Party’s Centennial Struggle adopted by the Sixth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee took "upholding the United front" as a historical experience of the Party’s Centennial Struggle. In October 2022, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader further emphasized in the Party’s Report to the 20th CPC National Congress: "The United front is a powerful magic weapon to unite people and gather strength."
The multi-party cooperation and political consultation system led by the Communist Party of China (CPC), as a basic political system in China, is a great political creation of the people of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and China, democratic parties and personages without party affiliation, and it is a new political party system grown from the soil of China. For a long time, the democratic parties and the Communist Party of China (CPC) have coexisted for a long time, supervised each other, treated each other with sincerity, shared weal and woe, performed the function of democratic supervision, and made important contributions to helping the Communist Party of China (CPC) make scientific, democratic and legal decisions. The picture shows that on March 5, 2023, the first session of the 14th Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference held a press conference for the leaders of the Democratic Party Central Committee and the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce in the Great Hall of the People.

In the new era, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has made overall arrangements for the United front work from the strategic height of governing the country. Under the guidance of the important thought of the Supreme Leader General Secretary on doing a good job in the party’s United front work in the new era, the United front work has made historic achievements, and the United front has shown a good situation of unity, forge ahead, pioneering and active.
"Now, the United front work is not outdated and unimportant, but more important." In this important article, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader raised the flag with firm and powerful words. "The United front is an important magic weapon for the party to defeat the enemy, govern and rejuvenate the country, and unite all Chinese people at home and abroad to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. It must be adhered to for a long time"; It is clearly emphasized that "the historical position of the party, the internal and external situation it faces, and the mission and tasks it shoulders have undergone some major changes. The greater the change, the more it is necessary to develop the United front and carry out the United front work well."
"We must solve the problems of people’s heart and strength"
"People’s hearts turn to the back, power contrast is the key to the success or failure of the cause of the party and the people, and it is the biggest politics. The essential requirement of United front work is great unity and unity, which solves the problem of people’s heart and strength. "
The United front is born of unity and thrives on unity. The Party always adheres to great unity and unity, unites all forces that can be United, mobilizes all positive factors that can be mobilized, promotes the harmony of political party relations, ethnic relations, religious relations, class relations and compatriots at home and abroad, and maximizes the strength of common struggle. Today, China has formed a broad patriotic united front led by the Communist Party of China (CPC) and attended by all democratic parties and people’s organizations, including all socialist workers, builders of socialist cause, patriots who support socialism, patriots who support the reunification of the motherland and patriots who are committed to the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

“新的征程上，我们必须坚持大团结大联合，坚持一致性和多样性统一”。2021年7月1日，天安门城楼上，站在“两个一百年”的历史交汇点，最高领袖总书记发出号召。
统一战线是一致性和多样性的统一体。只有一致性、没有多样性，或者只有多样性、没有一致性，都不能建立和发展统一战线。正确处理一致性和多样性关系，奠定了统一战线建立、发展和巩固的重要基础，决定了统战工作的全部内容，是统一战线理论创新与实践发展的重要基石。一部统战史，就是一部形成、巩固、发展一致性，尊重、包容、引导多样性的历史，处理一致性和多样性是各个历史时期统战工作的主线。
The new era and new journey put forward new and higher requirements for the United front work to correctly handle the relationship between consistency and diversity. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader made a series of important expositions and profoundly expounded this important issue. On May 18, 2015, at the Central United Front Work Conference, it was emphasized that to do a good job in United Front Work under the new situation, we must correctly handle the relationship between consistency and diversity and constantly consolidate the common ideological and political foundation; On September 20, 2019, at the working meeting of the Central Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and the celebration of the 70th anniversary of the founding of the China People’s Political Consultative Conference, it was emphasized that the CPPCC should play the role of United front organization, adhere to great unity and unity, and adhere to consistency and diversity.
In this important article, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader further emphasized that to correctly handle the relationship between consistency and diversity, "the key is to persist in seeking common ground while reserving differences and carry forward ‘ Unity — Criticism — Unity ’ The fine tradition of seeking consistency in respecting diversity, finding the greatest common denominator and drawing the greatest concentric circle. "
"We must persist in developing and perfecting the new political party system in China"
"The multi-party cooperation and political consultation system led by the Communist Party of China (CPC), as a basic political system in China, is a great political creation of the people of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and China, democratic parties and personages without party affiliation, and a new political party system that grew out of the soil of China."
On March 4, 2018, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader delivered an important speech when attending the joint meeting of the members of the 13th session of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, incisively expounding the unique advantages and distinctive features of the new political party system in China, and profoundly revealing the essential differences between China’s political party system of "communist party’s leadership, multi-party cooperation, communist party’s governance and multi-party participation in politics" and the western multi-party system and two-party system.
The new political party system in China has developed in the great process of socialist revolution, construction and reform. After the founding of New China, the Communist Party of China (CPC) put forward the policy of "long-term coexistence and mutual supervision", and then further developed it into the policy of "long-term coexistence, mutual supervision, treating each other with all sincerity and sharing weal and woe", which established the long-term existence and development pattern of the new political party system in China. In 1993, "the system of multi-party cooperation and political consultation led by the Communist Party of China (CPC) will exist and develop for a long time" was written into the Constitution. In 2005, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China formulated opinions on further strengthening the construction of multi-party cooperation and political consultation system under the leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC), and in 2006 formulated opinions on strengthening the work of the CPPCC. The new political party system in China has been maturing, stereotyped and innovated.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has vigorously promoted the theoretical, policy and practical innovation of multi-party cooperation, strengthened the overall leadership of multi-party cooperation, and promoted the construction of multi-party cooperation system. Practice has proved that the new political party system in China is a basic political system conducive to national development, national rejuvenation, social progress and people’s happiness.
In this important article, the Supreme Leader General Secretary put forward two requirements on "we must persist in developing and perfecting the new political party system in China". First, "the United front must adhere to the leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC), and at the same time promote multi-party cooperation to show a new atmosphere, achieve new improvement in ideological consensus, and perform their duties and responsibilities to show new achievements." Second, "all democratic parties should be good advisers, helpers and colleagues of the Communist Party of China (CPC), and strive to become Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s participating parties with firm politics, solid organization, strong performance, excellent work style and sound system".
"It is necessary to build a strong sense of the Chinese national community as the main line of the party’s national work"
"It is necessary to fully implement the Party’s 20th National Congress, accurately grasp the new stage features of the Party’s ethnic work, take building a strong sense of the Chinese nation community as the main line of the Party’s ethnic work and all work in ethnic areas, and constantly strengthen and improve the Party’s ethnic work".

On the afternoon of October 27th, 2023, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader delivered an important speech when he presided over the ninth collective study of the 20th the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, which clearly emphasized the significance and role of building a strong sense of the Chinese nation community and put forward clear requirements for promoting the high-quality development of the Party’s ethnic work in the new era.
National unity is the lifeline of the people of all ethnic groups in China, and the sense of Chinese national community is the foundation of national unity. The formation of the Chinese nation community is the inevitable result of the historical development of the Chinese nation. China’s vast territory is jointly developed by all ethnic groups; The long history is written by all ethnic groups; Brilliant culture is jointly created by all ethnic groups; The great spirit is cultivated by all ethnic groups. Facts fully show that it is the recognition of the Chinese nation community that plays a decisive role in the formation of the Chinese nation, rather than factors such as race, blood, region and religion.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee, with the Supreme Leader as the core, has focused on the new situation and new features faced by ethnic work in the new era, creatively put forward the major thesis of "building a strong sense of the Chinese nation community" and led ethnic work to a new level in innovation and development. In May, 2014, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader clearly put forward a major thesis of "the consciousness of the Chinese nation community" at the second Central Xinjiang Work Forum. In October, 2017, the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China officially wrote "Building the Consciousness of the Chinese National Community" into party constitution. In March 2018, a meeting of the 13th National People’s Congress passed a constitutional amendment, and the word "Chinese nation" was written into the fundamental law of the country for the first time.
It is the "program" of the party’s national work in the new era to build a strong sense of the Chinese national community, and all work should focus on this. In this important article, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader clearly demanded: "We must unswervingly follow the correct path of solving ethnic problems with China characteristics, promote the firm recognition of the great motherland, the Chinese nation, Chinese culture, the Communist Party of China (CPC) and Socialism with Chinese characteristics by all ethnic groups, and guide the people of all ethnic groups to firmly establish the community concept of sharing weal and woe, sharing weal and woe, and sharing destiny."
"We must adhere to the direction of China religion in China"
"Adhere to the direction of China religion in China and actively guide religion to adapt to socialist society".
In December 2021, at the National Conference on Religious Work, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader systematically expounded the new ideas, new concepts and new strategies of religious work in the new era, and made clear the guiding ideology, strategic objectives, key tasks and policy measures for adhering to the direction of China-oriented religion in China and doing a good job in religious work in the new era.
Religious work is an overall and strategic work related to the ruling future and destiny of the party. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has attached great importance to religious work, put forward a series of new ideas and new measures on religious work, and answered major theoretical and practical questions such as how to understand religion, how to deal with religious issues and how to do a good job in the Party’s religious work in the new era. The party’s religious work has been innovated and promoted, and positive results have been achieved. The implementation of the Party’s basic policy on religious work has been more comprehensive, the system and mechanism of religious work have been further improved, the legal system and policy framework of religious work have been increasingly improved, religious figures and religious believers have been increasingly aware of respecting the law and abiding by the law, and the China of religion in China has been gradually deepened.
It is the trend and law of religion’s survival and development that religion adapts to its society. Both local religions and foreign religions should constantly adapt to the development of our society, enrich the connotation of the times, and promote religious harmony, social harmony and national harmony. In this important article, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed that it is necessary to "fully implement the Party’s theory, principles and policies on religious work in the new era, persist in protecting legality, stopping illegality, containing extremes, resisting infiltration, cracking down on crimes, improving the level of legalization of religious work, supporting the religious circles to strictly manage religion in an all-round way, and actively guiding religion to adapt to socialist society".
"We must do a good job in the United front work of non-party intellectuals and people of new social strata"
"The work of non-party intellectuals is an important work of the United front."
Non-Party intellectuals, as pioneers of productive forces, creators of culture and disseminators of knowledge, are an irreplaceable important force in implementing the strategy of rejuvenating the country through science and education, strengthening the country through talents and driving development through innovation. At present, China’s population with college education or above has exceeded 218 million, about 170 million of whom are outside the party, and the number will continue to increase by several million every year in the future. "The new social stratum is the builder of socialism with Chinese characteristics", which mainly includes management technicians of private enterprises and foreign-invested enterprises, employees of intermediary organizations and social organizations, freelancers, and employees of new media. According to the survey in 2021, its total number is about 91 million. Practice has proved that doing a good job in the United front work of non-party intellectuals and new social strata is related to consolidating the class foundation and mass foundation of the party’s governance.
In this important article, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader put forward the requirement that "to do a good job of non-party intellectuals, full respect is the premise, strengthening guidance is the key, and giving play to its role is the purpose"; For the new social strata, "we should organize them, strengthen guidance and play a role." In the Party’s Report to the 20th CPC National Congress, the General Secretary further demanded: "Strengthen the ideological and political work of non-party intellectuals, do a good job in the work of new social strata, and strengthen the political guidance of common struggle."
"We must promote the healthy development of non-public economy and the healthy growth of non-public economic people"
"Promoting the healthy development of the non-public economy and the healthy growth of non-public economic people is a major economic issue and a major political issue."
China’s non-public economy has developed under the guidance of the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s policies since the reform and opening up, which is an important foundation for stabilizing the economy, an important source of national tax revenue, an important subject of technological innovation, an important support for financial development and an important force for sustained and healthy economic development. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has repeatedly reiterated "two unwavering" and "three unchanged", emphasizing: "unswervingly consolidate and develop the public sector of the economy, and unswervingly encourage, support and guide the development of the non-public sector of the economy"; "The position and role of the non-public sector of the economy in China’s economic and social development have not changed. Our principles and policies of unswervingly encouraging, supporting and guiding the development of the non-public sector of the economy have not changed. Our principles and policies of creating a good environment and providing more opportunities for the development of the non-public sector of the economy have not changed."
Both the public-owned economy and the non-public-owned economy are important components of the socialist market economy and an important foundation for China’s economic and social development. The public economy and the non-public economy complement each other and complement each other. Consolidating and developing the public economy well is not antagonistic to encouraging, supporting and guiding the development of the non-public economy, but organically unified. Any view that wants to deny the public ownership economy or the non-public ownership economy is not in the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people, is not in line with the requirements of China’s reform and development, and is wrong.
Private economy is the main economic organization form of non-public economy and the internal element of China’s economic system. Private enterprises and private entrepreneurs are our own people. In this important article, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader once again stressed from a political perspective that "the healthy development of the non-public economy and the healthy growth of non-public economic people must be promoted", and clearly demanded that "the education of ideals and beliefs should be carried out in depth, the pro-Qing political and business relations should be promoted, the high-quality development of the private economy should be promoted, and the non-public economic people should be guided to be qualified builders of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s cause".
"We must give full play to the role of United front work in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan and overseas to win people’s hearts."
On May 9, 2023, the 10th World Association of Overseas Chinese Associations closed in Beijing. The conference received enthusiastic support and active participation from overseas Chinese, and nearly 500 overseas Chinese delegation leaders from more than 130 countries and regions participated in offline activities.
The vast number of compatriots from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan and overseas Chinese are Chinese sons and daughters linked by blood. Doing their work well is of great significance to maintaining the long-term prosperity and stability of Hong Kong and Macao, promoting the peaceful development of cross-strait relations, and uniting all Chinese sons and daughters to work together for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese dream. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has inherited and developed our party’s scientific theory on "one country, two systems", which has effectively promoted the practice of "one country, two systems" to be stable and far-reaching. Comprehensively promote the theoretical and practical innovation of Taiwan work, form the overall strategy of the party to solve the Taiwan Province issue in the new era, firmly grasp the leading power and initiative of cross-strait relations, vigorously safeguard peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, and solidly promote the process of reunification of the motherland; We attach great importance to overseas Chinese affairs and emphasize the close unity of the vast number of overseas Chinese and returned overseas Chinese and their relatives, and give play to their positive role in the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

In this important article, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader put forward clear requirements around "we must give full play to the role of United front work in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan and overseas to win people’s hearts". In the field of Hong Kong and Macao, the General Secretary called for "developing and strengthening the forces that love Hong Kong and Macao, enhancing the national consciousness and patriotic spirit of our compatriots in Hong Kong and Macao, maintaining the long-term prosperity and stability of Hong Kong and Macao, and ensuring ‘ One country, two systems ’ Practice is steady and far-reaching "; In the field of Taiwan, the General Secretary called for "implementing the Party’s overall strategy of solving the Taiwan Province issue in the new era, developing and strengthening Taiwan Province’s patriotic unity force, and opposing ‘ Taiwan independence ’ Separatist acts to promote the complete reunification of the motherland "; With regard to overseas United front work and overseas Chinese affairs, the General Secretary called for "actively guiding overseas Chinese and their families who have returned overseas Chinese to devote themselves to the modernization and peaceful reunification of the motherland around the theme of sharing the Chinese dream together".
"We must strengthen the construction of non-party representatives"
On December 6th, 2023, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, Zhongnanhai, Beijing, held a forum for non-party people to listen to the opinions and suggestions of the leaders of the central committees of democratic parties, the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce and representatives of non-party people on the economic situation in 2023 and economic work in 2024. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader presided over the forum and delivered an important speech.
It is our party’s consistent policy to train and use non-party representatives and attach importance to their role in the country’s political and social life. In different historical periods, our party has always regarded uniting and cultivating non-party representatives as an important aspect of the overall work of the party and the state and an important political advantage in governing the country from a strategic height that determines the balance of power and affects the success or failure of the cause.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has repeatedly stressed: "We should intensify the training, selection and use of non-party representatives, and strive to cultivate a team of non-party representatives who consciously accept the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership, unswervingly follow the Socialism with Chinese characteristics road, and have strong representativeness and the ability to participate in and discuss state affairs." A series of new ideas, new ideas and new strategies put forward by the General Secretary have scientifically answered the important strategic question of "What kind of non-party representatives our party needs in the new era and how to cultivate such a team of non-party representatives", which has provided direction guidance and fundamental follow-up for promoting the construction of non-party representatives in the new era.
Talent growth depends on both individual efforts and organizational training. In this important article, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized: "It is necessary to strengthen training, improve quality, use it scientifically and play its role, and strive to train a group of non-party representatives who work closely with our party."
"We must grasp the law of doing a good job in United front work"
To do a good job in the United front work under the new situation, we must grasp the laws, adhere to the principles, pay attention to the methods, and the most fundamental thing is to uphold the leadership of the party. In the United front work, the policies and measures adopted should be conducive to upholding and consolidating the party’s leading position and ruling position. At the same time, we should also see that the United front work is the party’s special mass work, and there must be special ways and means.
In this important article, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader focused on grasping the law of doing a good job in United front work, emphasizing that "it is necessary to strengthen unity and contact with non-party people, adhere to the principle of respecting, safeguarding and taking care of the interests of allies, treat them with sincerity, move them with emotion, understand them with reason, and help them with reality, so as to truly win the respect and recognition of non-party people and make a large number of non-party friends for the party."
In a sense, whether the United front work is done well depends on how many friends you have made, whether you are qualified or not, and whether you are iron enough. Make a wide range of friends, the more friends, the better, especially some close friends who can speak their minds. We should make friends with the patience of making kung fu dishes like the Buddha jumping over the wall, make more contacts, have more heart-to-heart talks, pay attention to respect and sincerity, and realize real communication, in-depth understanding and emotional integration. It is necessary to unblock the channels of interest expression, communicate with non-party people often, do more practical things, do good things and solve problems for them, and truly win the respect and recognition of non-party people.
"We must strengthen the Party’s overall leadership over the United Front work"
"Strengthen the party’s centralized and unified leadership over the United front work, ensure that the party takes the overall situation and coordinates all parties in the United front work, and ensure that the United front work always advances in the correct political direction."
On December 21st, 2020, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China issued the revised Regulations on United Front Work in the Communist Party of China (CPC). The outstanding feature of the revised "Regulations" is that it runs through the party’s centralized and unified leadership over the United front work, regards upholding the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership as the primary principle of the United front work, and clarifies the party’s leading position in commanding the overall situation and coordinating all parties in the United front work.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has made strategic arrangements for the work of the United front in various fields, which has effectively strengthened the Party’s overall leadership over the United front work, and the pattern of the great United front work jointly done by all parties has gradually taken shape. In 2015, the Central Leading Group for United Front Work was established, and then local party committees at all levels set up leading groups for United Front Work accordingly, which further promoted party committees at all levels to fulfill their main responsibilities for United Front Work from the organizational structure. In the reform of the party and state institutions in 2018, the CPC Central Committee made it clear that the United Front Work Department of the Central Committee led the State Ethnic Affairs Commission, managed religious work and overseas Chinese affairs, merged the State Bureau of Religious Affairs and the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of the State Council into the Central United Front Work Department, and kept the State Bureau of Religious Affairs and the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of the State Council. Overseas Chinese affairs departments of all provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) are basically incorporated into the United Front Work Department of the Party Committee at the same level, and ethnic and religious work departments are uniformly led by the United Front Work Department of the Party Committee at the same level. These major measures have further strengthened the centralized and unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee over the United front work.
The historic achievement of the United front work in the new era lies in the fact that the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader is the core of the CPC Central Committee and the whole party at the helm, and in the important ideological and scientific guidance of Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the new era, especially the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader on doing a good job in the United front work of the Party in the new era. In this important article, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader clearly emphasized: "The United front is the United front led by the party, and it is necessary to ensure the party’s overall leadership over the United front work. The United front work is the work of the whole party. It must be paid attention to by the whole party and done by everyone together, and a great United front work pattern with unified leadership by the Party Committee, coordination by the United front department and responsibilities of relevant parties should be built. "
"the deeper you know, the more you can do." General Secretary Supreme Leader’s important thought on doing a good job in the party’s United front work in the new era is strategically located, profound and rich in connotation. It is an organic whole with strict logic and internal unity and a systematic and complete theoretical system. We should deeply understand the decisive significance of the "two establishment", strengthen the "four consciousnesses", strengthen the "four self-confidences" and achieve the "two maintenance", combine the in-depth study and implementation of this important thought with the in-depth study and implementation of the spirit of the 20th Party Congress and the latest important speech and important instructions of the General Secretary, solidly promote the work of the United front in all fields, and gather great strength for comprehensively promoting the construction of a strong country and the great cause of national rejuvenation with Chinese modernization.
