"As witnesses and practitioners of people's democracy throughout the whole process, we feel honored and responsible." In recent days, Hongqiao Street has carefully organized the study of the Twenty Reports delivered by General Secretary Xi Jinping. This is the first place to introduce the important concept of "whole process people's democracy". On the day of the opening of the conference, party members and cadres of Hongqiao Street and community members gathered at the Gubei Citizen Center to watch the live broadcast. When they heard the report's special article emphasizes the development of people's democracy throughout the process, everyone was deeply inspired and excited.
General Secretary pointed out in his report that people's democracy throughout the whole process is the essential attribute of socialist democratic politics , and it is the broadest, most realistic and most effective democracy. Wu Xinhui, director of Shanghai Kangming Law Firm, was particularly touched by this. As one of the earliest information officers at the grassroots legislative contact points in Hongqiao Street, she has participated in the draft law consultation meetings such as Anti-Domestic Violence Law, , and Minor Protection Law, and several suggestions were adopted. She said that these words in the report of the 20th National Congress are great encouragement and more important guidance, "Whether it is legislation or community governance, we must solicit opinions from the people more widely so that more people can participate in the whole process of people's democracy."

Party members, cadres and the masses watched the opening ceremony of the grassroots legislative contact point in Hongqiao Street. National Outstanding Communist Party Members , National People's Congress Representative Zhu Guoping was particularly excited. She was an eyewitness when the General Secretary inspected the grassroots legislative contact point in Hongqiao Street. She participated in witnessing the development and growth of the contact point. The "Pingju Studio" where she was located is a contact site of the contact point and has become a window for foreign friends to observe China's democratic politics. In recent years, the functions and connotations of contact points have been upgraded, and the level of community governance has been continuously improved. "In the future, I will cultivate more and better 'alley prime ministers' and lead these 'new waves' to work hard to be a good bridge and link between the people and the government, so that people's democracy in the whole process will be more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people." Zhu Guoping said.
According to statistics, over the years, the grassroots legislative contact points in Hongqiao Street have completed the solicitation of opinions on 68 laws, and summarized and sorted out more than 1,500 opinions and suggestions of various types, of which 121 suggestions were adopted. The streets have studied and transformed community governance issues such as meal aids for the elderly and shared neighborhoods, and solved a number of practical matters for people's livelihood.
"After listening to the report, I feel that the responsibility on my shoulders is heavier." said Sheng Hong, an outstanding party worker in the country and the first secretary of the Party Branch of Ronghua Residential District. This grassroots community worker who has been rooted in the community for more than ten years has applied the whole process of people's democracy and freedom to community governance activities. Sheng Hong said that it is necessary to further expand channels for democracy, better integrate legislative contact points with people's suggestions, community citizen council meeting hall and other platforms, widely listen to the opinions and suggestions of citizens, better transform residents' "golden ideas" into people's livelihood projects, and build the community better.
Just yesterday, residents of Aijian Residential Area and Hongqiao Residential Area sat together and held a "breaking wall" negotiation for shared space . Through the whole process of people's democratic grassroots consultation, everyone has found the best solution that is both convenient and beautiful, breaking the barrier between the two communities. The originally locked "one door" will soon become a "Tongxin Garden" community garden, and the community community is moving towards a neighborhood community.
"We must make every effort to build a grassroots governance pattern where 'what is easy to discuss and everyone's affairs are discussed', so as to better integrate the wisdom and strength of the masses into community development." Dai Tao, secretary of the Party Working Committee of Hongqiao Street, said that he will keep in mind the instructions and live up to the trust, and strive to build the best grassroots practice place for people's democracy throughout the process, and use the broadest, most realistic and most effective people's democracy to strive to interpret the Chinese-style modern community sample.
