The team will adhere to the principles of focusing on the central tasks and serving the overall situation, adopting a problem-oriented approach with a strict tone, applying a systematic perspective and leveraging the role of integrated oversight, and upholding truth from facts while acting in accordance with regulations, discipline, and law, so as to conduct political oversight in a precise and effective manner. With a focus on the Party Central Committee’s functional positioning and strategic plans for Zhejiang Province, the team will gain an in-depth understanding of how these have been implemented, particularly in carrying out the decisions and arrangements of General Secretary Xi Jinping and the Party Central Committee, advancing the plan for further comprehensive deepening of reform, coordinating development and security, deepening the exercise of full and rigorous self-governance, strengthening the building of leading bodies, the contingent of cadres and talent, and primary-level Party organizations, and addressing issues identified during inspection-based rectification. The team will keep a close watch on the exercise of power and the assumption of responsibility, on the “principal leader” and the leading body, and on problems that have drawn strong public concern, with a particular emphasis on identifying political deviations and resolving prominent problems, thereby providing robust support for advancing Chinese modernization.

Wang Hao stated that this inspection constitutes a comprehensive political health check for Zhejiang and a rigorous test of Party spirit for all Party members and cadres across the province, fully demonstrating the Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core’s high regard for Zhejiang’s work and its deep concern for Zhejiang’s Party members and cadres. It will undoubtedly provide strong impetus for us to thoroughly implement the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important remarks during his inspection of Zhejiang, carry out in-depth study and education on the spirit of the CPC Central Committee’s Eight-Point Decision with solid results, strive to build Zhejiang into a leading hub for Party building in the new era, and promote high-quality development in the demonstration zone for common prosperity. We firmly support the decision of the CPC Central Committee. We will, with unwavering political consciousness in upholding the “two establishments” and resolutely practicing the “two safeguards,” comply with the inspection arrangements, accept inspection oversight, proactively cooperate in all related work, and adhere to the principles of immediate identification and rectification as well as prompt action and immediate correction, so as to ensure the smooth conduct of the Central Inspection Team’s work in our province. We must take this inspection as an opportunity to deepen and advance full and rigorous Party self-governance, continuously energize Party members and cadres to engage in entrepreneurship and work with dedication and responsibility, and strike a balance between pursuing both development and maintaining strict Party discipline, ensuring that our efforts to cooperate with the inspection translate into tangible and effective results that drive high-quality development.
