The issue of condolences to retired soldiers has been around for a long time, but the discussion has never stopped. The main reason is the lack of unity.
The earliest known condolences to retired soldiers may be the condolences to retired veteran cadres in dry rest centers. It is usually held during the Spring Festival. At first, condolences were given, and later condolences were increased. However, these situations are all regulated by each local government, and there are also condolences from the former serving troops.
But for retired military personnel as a whole, there are relatively few. Some places have it, some places don't. There are even some places that are available in this village but not in the next village. This is the case in my hometown. In the past, Spring Festival condolences were distributed for 120 yuan in addition to condolences. Now the price has increased to 100 yuan, but there are none in the neighboring villages.
In the past, when the country was in difficulty and the economy was bad, we always advocated diligence, thrift, and spiritual rewards. But things are different now. There is a sense of ceremony. Therefore, holiday condolences to retired veterans are also on the table. Some senior representatives have mentioned it before, but maybe the voice was too quiet and was drowned out by other issues. But as long as this matter is reasonable and correct, then there should be a voice, and of course it cannot be separated from the support of the "mass" of .
First of all, all retired military personnel should be treated equally. Veteran cadres are also a form of retirement. At the national level, there should be a unified way for each retired military personnel to have a sense of ceremony or presence during the August 1st or Spring Festival every year.
Secondly, national reunification is both feasible and necessary. The nature of the condolences can be determined according to the financial capacity. For example, in our village, the price ranges from 120 yuan to 100 yuan, and the price is 100 yuan. In coastal areas, it is only a light meal for two or three people. But it’s never too little, and I can feel every time that the village still remembers me. I hope that this kind of experience can be experienced by all retired comrades.
Thirdly, it doesn’t matter whether you choose August 1st or Spring Festival. August 1st is a special day, and Spring Festival is an established tradition, so it’s not a big problem. As for the main driving force for actual implementation, in addition to the proposal of the National People's Congress deputies, as the "parental family" of retired soldiers, the retired department should speak for us, right?
hopes that nationwide consolation payments for veterans will be realized as soon as possible.
