Special Education Program of the Three Stricts and Three Earnests

The Three Stricts and Three Earnests were expectations of leading officials at all levels set by Xi Jinping. They call upon officials to be strict with themselves in self-cultivation, the exercise of power and self-discipline; and to be earnestin making plans,opening up new undertakings and upholding personal integrity. On April 19, 2015, the General Office of the CPC Central Committee issued the “Program for Educating Leading Officials at the County Level and Above on the Three Stricts and Three Earnests,” and made plans for its implementation in 2015.

Strict in self-cultivation means enhancing Party members’ awareness of the Party’s expectations, firmly supporting their ideals and beliefs, promoting their ethical standards, pursuing noble values, self-consciously avoiding vulgarity, and consciously resisting unhealthy practices and negative influences.

Strict in the exercise of power means always using power to serve the people, always exercising power according to rules and institutional procedures, keeping the power within the confines of an institutional cage, and never seeking special privileges or using it for personal gain.

Strict in self-discipline means holding in awe and veneration, being diligent in self-examination and strictly abiding by Party discipline and state laws.

Earnest in making plans means basing plans on reality, so that ideas, policies and programs are appropriate to actual conditions, accord with objective laws and the scientific spirit, and are neither overly ambitious nor detached from reality.

Earnest in opening up new undertakings means being firmly grounded, taking real action, daring to be held accountable, confronting problems directly, being adept at solving them, and striving to produce results that are workable, acceptable to the people and can stand the test of time.

Earnest inupholding personal integritymeans being an honest person who speaks and acts honestly.

This special education program improved the political environment, fostered a more intense atmosphere of strict Party self-governance, and better leveraged the role of leading officials.
