Strive to Establish Stable and Strong National FinanceOur Commentator's article says: Comrade Jiang Zemin's important remarks on the publication of the book, "Textbook on Financial Knowledge for Leading Cadres", are of highly important significance for leading cadres at all levels to pay further attention to and support the financial work, continue to deepen the financial reform, perfect financial functions, strengthen financial management, set up a financial system and operational mechanism suited to the requirements of a socialist market economy and establish a stable, balanced and strong national finance.Our Party has always paid great attention to the financial work. The important remarks of Comrade Jiang Zemin have inherited, developed and enriched the financial management ideas of the core of leadership of our Party's first and second generations, pointed out the basic principles for doing the financial work well under the condition of a socialist market economy, expounded the functions, position and role played by finance in the construction of State power and in economic and social development, set the cross-century goal of struggle for the country's finance and the way for its realization, these remarks give incisive expositions and comprise rich contents and represent a new development of the Marxist financial idea under the condition of a socialist market economy. Finance belongs to the economic, as well as the political, category, it represents an important function of the State and an important aspect of the activity of State power, it concerns the proper administration of State affairs and the guarantee of national security, the mightiness of the country and prosperity of its people. Comrades of the whole Party, particularly leading cadres must, from the political height and from the height of the entire economic and social development, enhance their understanding of the importance of financial work and heighten their self-consciousness in studying, grasping and correctly applying the financial policy, so as to give better play to the functions and role of finance. To implement Comrade Jiang's remarks, we should first try hard to comprehend the essence of the remarks. This requires that leading cadres at all levels conscientiously learn financial knowledge, get acquainted with financial regulations and the financial business, get to know the law governing financial operation, grasp and use the financial policies and tools, change their concepts, improve their working methods, raise their financial management level and enhance their abilities to control the whole economic situation. Implementation of Comrade Jiang's remarks should be closely linked with the actuality of the financial work. This requires that we firmly establish in the financial work the financial management idea featuring the integration of the calculation of economic accounts, political accounts and social accounts, that we persist in taking success in doing financial work as the fundamental standard for judging "whether or not it is conducive to the development of China's socialist market economy and to the consolidation of the socialist system, whether or not it is helpful to properly safeguarding, realizing and developing the fundamental interests of the broad masses of the people, and whether nor not it is beneficial to the defense of State unification and security, and to promoting national unity and social stability". Standing at the height of comprehensively pushing forward reform, opening up and the modernization drive and bringing about the all-round development of the Chinese nation, we should further improve the financial functions, strive to give play to the macro-control role of financial policies and tools in the economy; deepen the financial reform, gradually set up a financial system and operational mechanism complying with the requirements of the socialist market economy; we should strengthen financial management, standardize the economic order, straighten out the relationship of income distribution, steadily raise the proportion of financial revenue in the gross domestic product (GDP) and the proportion of the central financial revenue to the national financial revenue. At the same time, we should actively push ahead the management of finance and taxation according to law. Over the past 20-plus years of reform and opening up, particularly in the past decade, great achievements have been gained in the financial work,, breakthrough progress has been made in the financial reform, and notable enhancement been made in financial strength, providing effective guarantee for the all-round development of various undertakings related to the national economy and society. Today, at the turn of the century and the advent of a new millennium, finance is faced with a new situation and tasks, the financial work has become the focus, hot spot and difficult point in the present government work, this requires that leading cadres at all levels bear in minds and firmly establish the idea of managing finance for the people as set forth by Comrade Jiang Zemin in his remarks, learn to apply and give play to the role of the financial lever to control and manage the economy, constantly raise the level of leadership over the financial and economic work, so as to better shoulder the responsibility for leading the cross-century financial and economic work.
