In recent years, the CPC Central Committee and the State Council have made many arrangements regarding the crime prevention and control system. Just now, Mr. Sun mentioned that the system has become an important measure in promoting the construction of the Peaceful China initiative. Could you please introduce details of the important measures and achievements in promoting the system? Thank you.
Sun Maoli:
The crime prevention and control system is a basic measure and support for the Peaceful China initiative. Regarding this question, Mr. Qiu will give you a more detailed introduction.
Qiu Baoli:
Thank you for your interest in this issue. The CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core has attached great importance to the construction of the crime prevention and control system, and the CPC Central Committee and the State Council have made decisions and deployments many times. In order to earnestly implement these arrangements, the MPS regards the system as a foundation for the higher level of the Peaceful China initiative, and an important carrier for enhancing the capability of dealing with the complex security situation. To improve the integrality, collaboration and precision of crime prevention and control, we are continuously optimizing top-level design and improving the institutional mechanism. We also guide public security organs across the country to coordinate the allocation of forces, consolidate construction of the fulcrum, strengthen scientific and technological support and optimize the prevention and control mechanism. By doing so, the system has played an important role in maintaining the overall stability of social order, ensuring safety for major events and combating COVID-19.
Since the 19th CPC National Congress, in order to further implement the construction of the crime prevention and control system, the MPS has launched a campaign to build demonstration cities under the national crime prevention and control system. We guided local public security organs across China to establish demonstration cities as the key point, provided models and demonstrations as the guide, conducted crime prevention and control work with strong professionalism, and extensively carried out crime prevention and control with public participation and explored ways to promote intelligent crime prevention and control. We have built 21,000 police posts on streets, 136,000 police offices in communities, and 5,026 smart police checkpoints. We have built 256,000 intelligent security communities, including 778,000 intelligent security housing estates, and fostered 21,000 social organizations regarding safety. Through the above measures, we have effectively improved the three-dimensional and intelligent level of crime prevention and control system. Compared with 2012, the number of China's snatch and robbery cases decreased by 96.1%, and theft cases dropped by 62.6% in 2021. Approximately 218,000 housing estates have maintained a zero-crime rate. In particular, the enthusiasm of people to participate in social security governance ran unprecedentedly high. Beijing's Chaoyang district as well as the cities of Shenyang, Hangzhou, Suzhou, Xiamen and Shenzhen have become famous for social-wide efforts in preventing and controlling crimes. It has promoted integrated prevention and control mechanisms through public participation, created "peaceful community" by combining the efforts of both police and the people, and given a strong boost to sound governance.
Going forward, the MPS will earnestly implement the decisions and arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and pursue a holistic approach to national security. We will organize the public security organs across China to build a "demonstration cities" campaign as leverage, promote the development of the crime prevention and control system to a higher level with wider coverage and scope, and continue to improve the overall efficiency of the crime prevention and control system. We will strive to help our people have a sense of gain, happiness, and security that is stronger, more secured and more sustainable and make greater contributions to reaching a higher level in building a peaceful China. Thank you.
