In June 1994, Comrade Peng Peiyun clearly pointed out at the National Family Planning Commission Directors' Symposium held in Yancheng City, Jiangsu Province that taking the road of "three combinations" is the road of hope for rural family planning work and is the key to deepening the reform of family planning work.

The only way to establish a new mechanism for family planning work that is compatible with the socialist market economic system.

Since the Yancheng Conference, various regions have accelerated the pace of promoting the "three combinations" and achieved positive results. New experiences with unique characteristics have emerged, developed and formed.

1.

The level of understanding has been further improved, and new ideas have gradually become clearer. After the Yancheng Conference, awareness has been raised.

Unifying ideas has become a key part of promoting the "three combinations" work in various places.

After conducting sufficient investigations and studies, leaders at all levels believe that the "three combinations" are not only a method issue, but also a direction issue, not only a theoretical issue, but also a practical issue.

Under the new situation of determining the socialist market economic system, family planning must continue to improve its work level and must follow the path of "three combinations".

The population issue is a development issue, which is closely related to solving women's issues and farmers' issues.

Promoting the "three combinations" is an inevitable requirement for the two productions to be grasped at the same time. It reflects the party's purpose of serving the people wholeheartedly and complies with the farmers' strong desire to get rich through hard work and pursue a civilized and happy life. It is an effective way to grasp the family planning work.

way.

The National Family Planning Commission held a national seminar on coordinated development of population and economy and society in Guanghan City, Sichuan Province in October 1994. The main party and government leaders from 23 counties (cities) in 17 provinces, some population experts and the directors of the provincial Family Planning Commission attended

seminar.

Everyone feels that with the development of the economy and society and the deepening of family planning work, in the past, the population problem was solved only by slowing down the population growth rate, and the methods of family planning alone have become increasingly inadequate to meet the requirements of the new situation.

The meeting agreed that population issues should be understood from a broader perspective, comprehensive measures should be taken in a wider range of areas, and new integration points should be found to form a huge synergy that promotes the coordinated development of population and economic and social development.

From Jilin, Liaoning and other provinces summing up the experience of "three combinations" of family planning work, to Yancheng City's implementation of the "Fewer Births, Quick Wealth Civilization Project" and Sichuan Province taking strong government actions to promote the comprehensive implementation of "three combinations" of family planning in rural areas

Comprehensive decisions have been made on the work, and various localities have gradually become clear about further promoting the coordinated development, comprehensive development and sustainable development of rural population and economy and society.

In March 1995, at the National Family Planning Work Conference, Comrade Zhang Weiqing, executive deputy director of the National Family Planning Commission, pointed out that the "three main points" and "three combinations" are the creations of the masses in the practice of family planning, reflecting the core values ??of family planning work.

Objective laws and inevitable trends of development, combining state guidance with mass voluntariness, social constraints and interest orientation, adapt to the requirements of the times to achieve the all-round development of people, and thus become two important lessons for grasping family planning work.

Leading comrades of the central government have given full affirmation on many occasions and pointed out that this is the right path to solve the population problem and accelerate the development of rural family planning work.

In response to the current national conditions, provincial conditions, local (city) conditions and the new problems and new situations faced by family planning work in the new historical period, many local leaders have clarified their ideas and unified their understanding through investigation, research and demonstration, that is, to change

In the past, the working method of family planning focused on family planning, organizing people of childbearing age to develop agricultural production according to local conditions, participating in various business activities, providing them with socialized services, helping them solve specific difficulties in production, life, and childbirth, and providing

Families that practice family planning are given preferential treatment in terms of policies, projects, funds, technology, etc., so that they can become rich as soon as possible and feel the benefits of family planning from their own personal interests.

The acquisition of these understandings marks that we have a deeper understanding of the objective laws of coordinated development of population and economy and society and the internal operating laws of family planning work. We have gained some valuable experience in practical exploration and have begun to blaze a new path.

2.

Take effective measures to form an overall development trend. In some places where family planning work has a good foundation, the "three combinations" work has been actively and rapidly developed from point to point under the promotion of the government.

In Sichuan Province's promotion of the "Three Integration" work, the active participation of the government and relevant departments is very prominent.

The province's "three combinations" work has been able to develop in a short period of time what was once a spontaneous, scattered approach that relied solely on the exploration and practice of one family planning department into a unified understanding, unified deployment, and unified planning of the province's "three combinations".

In unified action, government actions played a key role.

The Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government have determined that the focus of the "Three Combinations" is to encourage, guide and support families who implement family planning to become rich first, which has greatly improved the social status and economic benefits of these families.

Eight agriculture-related work departments including the Provincial Family Planning Commission, Department of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry, Department of Forestry, Department of Water and Electricity, Township Enterprise Bureau, Animal Husbandry and Food Office, Agricultural Machinery Administration, and Poverty Alleviation Office jointly issued a notice to determine that each township will help 10 households and each county will help 100 households.

Each year, households and departments help at least 1,000 households and 10,000 households across the province implement family planning to become rich first.

By the beginning of 1995, more than 250,000 households had been targeted for direct assistance across the province.
