数字赋能 功能拓展——南浔持续提升城乡寄递服务******
深入推进快递业进村,构建城乡贯通、内外融合的现代快递物流网,对促进乡村振兴、推动共同富裕意义重大。湖州市南浔区以数字化改革为抓手,拓展融合多种服务功能,扎实推进城乡寄递公共服务均等化改革,城乡寄递服务水平和能效获得持续提升。2021年、2022年,该区连续两年承办全省邮政快递业“两进一出”工作推进会;2022年5月,作为全省城乡寄递公共服务均等化唯一试点承办现场会;南浔邮政管理局荣获2021年度全省邮政管理系统突出贡献集体奖。
“当前快递作为‘新开门七件事’之一,越来越成为城乡居民必不可少的生活方式。近几年,我区快递收派量平均以每年40%速度增长,但农村快递服务质效远不如城镇,广大农村仍然是快递发展的薄弱区,推动城乡寄递公共服务均等化改革,通过一系列举措为农村居民打造舒适便捷的寄递服务,是现实趋势更是民生实事。”南浔邮政管理局主要负责人说。
数字化改革背景下,数字赋能成了南浔推进城乡寄递公共服务均等化改革最为显著的特点。该区以农村快递100%通达为目标,深植“管服融合”理念,开发“村易递在线”应用,联合国家邮政局发展研究中心合作开发“村邮助手”APP,运用数字技术、优化寄递流程、构建指数模型,打造“快件追踪”“通达地图”“企业画像”“协同智管”四大应用场景,推动农村寄递“管”出效率、“服”出便利,覆盖全区144个行政村(城镇规划区外)177个点位、10个快递62个网点,在全省率先实现所有快递品牌100%进村。
在优化体系上,南浔着力探索农村寄递服务新路径。目前,南浔正在加快建设一个区级邮政快递共配中心、七个镇街快递园区、N个村级快递便民服务点(共富驿站),形成“1+7+N”的区、镇、村三级寄递物流体系。在全省首创镇街快递网点园区化管理模式,推进乡镇末端网点标准化建设,可有效破解快递网点安全隐患多、监管难等痛点。
寄递服务如何助力共同富裕?南浔也在作出有效探索。在村级快递便民服务点全覆盖基础上,南浔以快递进村为链接,发挥快递引流作用,在农房集聚区、未来乡村等人流较大的区域大幅推广建设共富驿站。共富驿站实行专人管理,进驻金融、通信、商超、团购、招工等业务,充分发挥快递、银行、通信等多方优势,打造以寄递服务为基础、综合服务全拓展的农村集成服务新样板,实现群众就近办事“最多跑一次”。全区建成以双林镇七星桥村、练市镇荃步村等为代表的共富驿站28个。
改革出效率。目前,南浔快递企业派件时间平均缩短0.5天/件,跨部门协同处理案件平均时间由3天缩短为1天。农产品年均出村量20万余件,其中“快递+红美人”成为全区首个业务量超10万件的寄递服务农产品项目,“快递+淡水鱼苗”年业务量超3万件。快递园区、共富驿站纳入强村公司建设管理,快递营业网点租金成为村集体经济收入的重要来源。同时,快递园区、共富驿站的建设,带来一定的人流和物流,带动周边消费和服务,提供了卫生保洁、门卫、分拣等多个岗位,解决了村民就业,加上共富驿站带动农产品出村进城,实现助力1000余农户户均增收5000元以上。(达才金)
中新网评:美国众议长选举“连续剧”暴露美式民主痼疾******
中新网北京1月9日电(蒋鲤)在15轮投票表决后,美国众议院议长选举这场“连续剧”终于落下帷幕,众议院共和党领袖凯文·麦卡锡最终成功当选第55任美国众议院议长。这是美国国会过去164年来耗时最久的一次议长选举记录,将美国“对抗式民主”的弊端暴露无遗。

由于两党对立加剧、党派内斗、利益分配不均等因素,众议长选举陷入一场拉锯战。在此次众议长竞选中,美国民主党议员继续抱团,多轮投票中,一票不投麦卡锡,共和党右翼“强硬派”领头的约20人小团体也拒绝投票麦卡锡。
麦卡锡的当选之路一波三折,除了本人的“政治投机派”角色在国会不受欢迎外,与共和党内部政治分歧关系密切。
一方面,共和党党内反对者认为,麦卡锡对民主党态度过于软弱,无力对抗民主党控制的参议院和拜登政府,另一方面,因为共和党的多数优势微弱,党内一些影响力较小的派系的政治力量则被放大,有利于他们巩固自己的选票。
此外,党内反对者也认为,自己的选票没有换取更多利益,希望以此作为筹码换取麦卡锡更大的让步,比如让他们获得众议院重要委员会中的职务。
作为仅次于美国总统、副总统的政坛三号人物,众议院议长通常由众议院多数党领袖担任,选举几乎没有悬念。然而,麦卡锡此次为当选,不得不做出多个关键让步,其中可能包括恢复一项罢黜议长动议机制,使得众议长的权力被削弱,难以掌控众议院。
美国有线电视新闻网CNN称,麦卡锡在这场不合时宜的政治勒索中作出让步,这种绥靖政策只会让极端主义势力更加强大。
这场引发全世界围观的尴尬选举暴露出美国政治存在严重的对立和分化。在权力博弈思维的裹挟下,党派利益凌驾于国家和人民利益之上,美国两党相互拆台,陷入“为反对而反对”的无脑对垒。而即便是一党内,也会因为利益分配问题产生不同的小派系,相互对抗,选票变成了谋利益的工具。
从国会山骚乱到打破记历史记录的15轮众议长选举,“对抗式民主”让美国政治陷入瓶颈,长期对抗势必会让政客们丧失客观公正的判断能力,其政治阶层是否有能力治理国家也会引发质疑。
两党之争和党派内斗进一步放大了美国政治体制弊病,美国所谓的“民主”形象,让全世界大跌眼镜。鼓吹以选民利益为先的美式选举,变成了政客们利益置换的游戏,进一步彰显出美国“民主政治”日渐失能,不断极化的党争已使美国政治制度陷入死循环。
House speaker election reveals deep-rooted problems in U.S. democracy
(ECNS) -- The Republican leader Kevin McCarthy was elected as the 55th speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives after 15 ballots. As the most grueling House speaker election in the past 164 years, the election has highlighted the defects of the country’s "confrontational democracy".
The election once reached a stalemate due to intense partisan strife, inner-party struggle among the Republicans, uneven distribution of interests, and more. Democratic Party members forged a close alliance, refusing to vote for McCarthy, while about 20 Republicans also declined to cast ballots for the GOP leader.
Except for his unpopular role as a "political speculator" in Congress, McCarthy’s hard-won election can be attributed to turmoil within the Republican Party.
On the one hand, opponents in the Republican Party believe that the GOP leader's attitude toward the Democrats is too weak to confront the Senate controlled by Democrats and the Biden administration.
On the other hand, the political power of some less influential factions in the Republican Party has been amplified due to the Party’s weak majority advantage in the House of Representatives, which is conducive to consolidating their ticket warehouses.
Meanwhile, these opponents believe that their votes failed to win them more benefits, hoping to use this as a bargaining chip for McCarthy's further concessions, such as getting them positions in important House Committees.
As the third political figure after the President and Vice President of the U.S., the speaker, by tradition, is the head of the majority party in the House of Representatives.
But McCarthy has made many concessions in order to bring the ultra conservatives along, involving what’s known as the “motion to vacate,” a mechanism by which members can force a vote to depose the speaker. The reported concessions will empower individual members at the expense of McCarthy’s sway as speaker.
CNN thought the concessions he made during this unseemly political shakedown would only make the extremist faction more powerful.
This embarrassing election, which has drawn global attention, exposed the serious opposition and polarization in American politics. Both Democrats and Republicans put their interests before that of the country and its people, attacking and opposing each other irrationally.
Besides, different factions arise within a single party and confront each other because of the distribution of interests. Votes have become a tool to win more benefits.
From Capitol riots to the House Speaker election with record-breaking ballots, "confrontational democracy" has become a bottleneck of American politics. Long-term confrontation will surely impede politicians to think objectively and fairly while their capacity of governing the country will also raise doubts among the public.
Both parties’ struggle and infighting among the Republicans have further amplified the defects of the American political system, with its "democratic" image shocking the world.
The U.S.-style election, which advocates putting voters' interests first, has become a game of interest exchange among politicians. In addition, it further demonstrates the malfunction of American "democratic politics" and the constantly polarized party struggle that has trapped the American political system into an infinite cycle.
