Tianmu News:

In the 1960s, Fengqiao, a town in Zhuji city, Zhejiang province, developed the well-known "Fengqiao Experience." What has been done in the new era by public security organs to adhere to and develop the "Fengqiao Experience" and promote diverse solutions for resolving conflicts and disputes? And can you share with us any good experiences and practices? Thank you.

Sun Maoli:

The "Fengqiao Experience" is a vivid example of socialization of social governance and participation of the whole of society in building a peaceful China and has delivered very good results. Mr. Qiu Baoli, will introduce specific experiences and practices. 

Qiu Baoli:

Thank you for your attention to this issue. The MPS has always attached great importance to identifying and defusing conflicts and disputes. Thoroughly implementing Xi Jinping Thought on the Rule of Law, the MPS has guided public security organs to adhere to and develop the "Fengqiao Experience" in the new era, rolled out special programs in this regard, and actively engaged in a comprehensive mechanism to prevent, mediate, and resolve conflicts and disputes with diversified methods. We also strived to ensure that no conflict is passed on to higher authorities, and ensure a peaceful society and adequate services entailed.

In 2019, in order to earnestly implement the important instructions of General Secretary Xi Jinping that the "Fengqiao Experience" should be adhered to and developed, and the mass line of the Party should be adhered to and thoroughly implemented, with the approval of the CPC Central Committee, the MPS launched the program of building Fengqiao-style police stations in public security organs nationwide, which served as an important part of public security organs adhering to and developing the "Fengqiao Experience" in the new era and actively engaging in resolving conflicts and disputes with diversified methods. At the same time, facing new situations and new problems since the outbreak of COVID-19, the MPS guided public security organs nationwide to carry out the program of police officers providing door-to-door services. With a focus on COVID-19 related and other conflicts and disputes, we made efforts to address people's concerns and difficulties, and prevented different types of conflicts from being intertwined. We also did our best to solve problems at the primary level, at the local level, and at the initial stage. Police stations have gained a better understanding of social conditions and popular feelings, through door-to-door visits, department briefings, and talks with the public, as well as in the process of receiving and disposing calls to the police, investigating and handling cases, and stationing in communities. We strived to achieve early detection, full intervention, and timely mediation of conflicts and disputes. The diverse solution for resolving conflicts and disputes has been fully promoted by means of synergy between police stations and courts, people's mediation at police stations, and lawyers providing services at police stations. According to incomplete statistics, in 2021, police stations nationwide investigated and resolved 6.05 million conflicts and disputes and addressed 3.88 million safety hazards, effectively preventing the occurrence of a large number of cases. 

Next, the MPS will guide public security organs nationwide to adhere to and develop the "Fengqiao Experience" in the new era, continue to promote the program of building Fengqiao-style police stations, strengthen foundational work at primary level with a priority on police stations, thoroughly resolve conflicts and disputes, and prevent and control risks and potential dangers so as to provide strong support for reaching a higher level in building a peaceful China. Thank you.
