How to do a good job in conscription and special care

Broaden the source of soldiers and adjust the proportion of conscription.

China implements a military service system that combines conscripts and volunteers. Conscripts mainly come from the annual recruitment of new recruits, and volunteers are non-commissioned officers, which come from the selection and transformation of conscripts and the recruitment of non-military departments. As far as the recruitment of conscripts is concerned, with the expansion of colleges and universities, the increase of social vocational and technical training and a large number of urban and rural young people going out to work, a large number of outstanding school-age young people have been diverted, which has reduced the base of good soldier year by year. For example, in some developed coastal cities, 90% of junior and senior high school graduates can go to college. From the objective reality, the overall culture and comprehensive quality of the current recruits are poor. The overall quality of conscripts is not high, which directly affects the construction and development of noncommissioned officers as the backbone of grassroots combat effectiveness, because most noncommissioned officers are selected and trained from conscripts. With the continuous improvement of the scientific and technological content of military equipment, there is an urgent need for a large number of high-quality young people to join the barracks. Therefore, at present, we should broaden the sources of troops and increase the proportion of non-officers recruited. First, increase the proportion of college students' recruitment. Encourage college students to join the army, appropriately relax the natural conditions such as age, eyesight, height and weight of college students to join the army, and gradually transfer the main body of conscription from traditional social youth to fresh high school graduates, technical secondary school students, college students and university graduates. At present, there are as many as 23 million college students in China. If we can really transfer the main body of conscription to college students, it will not only ease the employment pressure of college students, but also greatly improve the overall quality of military talent groups, which is also of great help to improve the overall quality of college students. The second is to appropriately increase the proportion of urban soldiers. At present, in order to alleviate the pressure of local governments on job placement, local governments strictly control the proportion of urban youth recruitment. Although it is understandable to control urban registered youth to join the army, on the one hand, it makes a large number of urban youth miss the opportunity to join the army, on the other hand, it also aggravates the current situation of "difficult recruitment". Therefore, it is necessary to break the traditional urban and rural hukou restrictions and appropriately increase the proportion of urban youth recruitment in order to recruit the best. The third is to increase the proportion of non-commissioned officers recruited from non-military departments. In principle, general professional non-commissioned officers such as drivers, communications, computers, etc. It should be mainly collected directly from local areas, and the collection targets are mainly professional and technical workers who have graduated from local higher vocational colleges, worked in corresponding professional posts for a period of time or have college education or above. Non-commissioned officers with strong command and management ability and military professionalism should be trained by selecting conscripts with college education or above.

Adapt to the laws of market economy,

Reform and improve preferential policies.

The existing preferential policies of the country are not implemented in place, the rights and interests of candidates are not effectively guaranteed, and the preferential resettlement policy lags behind the needs of the development of the situation, which also affects the enthusiasm of enlisting in the army to some extent. For example, in some areas, the preferential payments received by rural youth as soldiers for two years are far lower than the standard of "not lower than the local average living standard" stipulated in the Military Service Law. It is generally difficult for young non-agricultural entrepreneurs to find jobs after serving in China; In some places, when there are contradictions between the special care and resettlement and the local personnel system reform and enterprise restructuring, they do not actively try to solve them, but simply deal with the contradictions at the expense of the interests of the special care recipients and the violation of the special care and resettlement policy. Therefore, at present, we must adapt to the environment of social development, adjust and improve the policy of special care and resettlement, and especially vigorously correct the deviation in the implementation of existing reasonable policies. First, strictly implement the existing preferential treatment system and policies. The second is to reform and adjust preferential policies and give more generous economic compensation for joining the army. For example, raise the standard of preferential payments for conscripts and strictly implement the standard of "not lower than the local average living standard" stipulated in the National Military Service Law. Reform the payment mechanism for special care recipients, coordinate urban and rural areas, and reflect and realize a balanced burden. Provide post-related training and guidance for retirees, and give retirees preferential admission (use) in adult education enrollment, national civil servant recruitment and partial recruitment. The minimum living security system shall be implemented for the demobilized soldiers to be resettled, or an unemployment insurance system shall be established. For self-employment, increase the amount of economic compensation, explore and practice effective ways to monetize resettlement, and solve the worries of young people and the government. The third is to improve the social appeal of the military profession. By improving the treatment of military personnel, the social status of military personnel can be improved and the social attraction of military occupation can be improved. At the same time, accelerate the pace of military reform, provide a larger and broader career platform, and attract more social elites to make contributions to the military.

Improve laws and regulations,

Form a complete reward and punishment mechanism

Military service laws and regulations are not binding, and rewards and punishments regulations are not operable, which is also a problem at present. Although the current military service law has special provisions on "punishment", the provisions on the subject of execution are vague, lacking specific treatment methods and rules, and it is difficult to operate and implement. Often different places and units engage in different practices according to different understandings and standards, which affects the seriousness and authority of laws and regulations. For example, those who evade military service are fined, punished, criticized and educated, detained, and the conscription examination is cancelled, and some of them go away. However, the rewards for units and organizations in conscription work are basically blank. Therefore, adapting to the needs of the situation, perfecting the military service law, raising rewards and punishments and preferential treatment to the height of laws and regulations, and improving the operability of laws and regulations so as to facilitate compliance and supervision of implementation are one of the key measures to do a good job in conscription. We should try our best to solidify the contents of conscription, special care and placement in legal form, so that conscription and special care can move towards the track of regularization and legalization at the same time.

Strengthen national defense education for all,

Form a good social atmosphere for actively joining the army.

In recent years, the state and local governments have attached great importance to national defense education and done many practical things that are conducive to national defense construction. However, at present, national defense education in some areas is still superficial, superficial and superficial, lacking universality and pertinence. The majority of school-age young people lack the concept of performing military service according to law, and lack the sense of responsibility and consciousness of doing their duty to safeguard national defense security. Some places no longer adhere to the tradition of condolence to military families and hanging "glorious family" plaques during the Spring Festival, and the atmosphere of "one person joins the army and the whole family is glorious" is gradually lost. In order to strengthen the national defense education of the whole people and form a good social atmosphere of "it is glorious to perform military service according to law and shameful to evade military service" in the whole society, we should strengthen the pertinence of national defense education, especially the publicity and education of military service laws and regulations. Integrate all kinds of publicity resources, change the current practice of "a gust of wind" and "campaign propaganda" during the recruitment period, run through the whole year, persist in deepening and lasting, and become a household name; Incorporate the basic contents of the national defense law, the national defense education law and the military service law into the national defense education system, into the school ideological and moral curriculum, and into the training of leading cadres.
