Liang Shuxin decided to run for the National People's Congress on May 26th. After he saw the news of the serial bombings in Fuzhou, Jiangxi Province through Weibo.
He is the commercial operation director of Tianya Community and an extremely active participant in public welfare undertakings in Guangzhou. However, because he is active, he receives more than a dozen letters from netizens every day, accusing him of various difficulties such as injustice, forced demolition, judicial injustice, and lack of money for medical treatment. He was numb for a time.
Before the Fuzhou bombing, he saw on the Internet that the suspect Qian had failed to petition for house demolition for ten years. He didn't forward or comment on the money of Weibo. On the contrary, this man who blew himself up hundreds of kilometers away was concerned about some projects of the "micro-plan" newly initiated by 20 10 Liang Shu.
On the day of the explosion, Liang spent money to see more than 100 Weibo. "If it weren't for this extreme event, you would find that he is actually a very ordinary and normal person." Speaking of which, Liang sighed. His body slowly leaned back and looked at the ceiling for a long time. On the same day, Liang Shuxin noticed that the last time Qian logged into Tianya Weibo was in the early morning of May 25th, and he didn't speak. "I don't know what he wants to do in the end." Liang wrote in Weibo.
Liang Shuxin felt that he had brought "numbness" to the money incident. He felt guilty: "I was actually avoiding his business before." He felt that if he could stand up at that time, even if he said a few words and turned a post on Weibo, it might also play a role.
2065438+01May 27th, on Sina Weibo, Liang Shuxin announced his candidacy with his real name ID: "I'm party member from China. I've been a party member for nine years, but I've basically never exercised my right to stand for election. I'm deeply ashamed. We decided to participate in this year's election of deputies to the District People's Congress in Tianhe District, Guangzhou. Name: Liang Shuxin; Age: 35. Household registration: No.69 Tianhe Street, Tianhe District, Guangzhou. Reason: I have a wide range of public opinion absorption and dissemination channels; Enthusiastic public welfare, service and dedication; I want to speak for the disadvantaged groups. Please support! "
He became another case after football commentator Li, Li and Li, who announced his candidacy for the National People's Congress through Weibo's self-recommendation. 20 1 1 In the election year, according to incomplete statistics, more than 80 ordinary citizens who volunteered to run for local people's congress suddenly emerged in China.
"If everyone has an attitude that has nothing to do with themselves, it is very likely that the next Qian Qiming will be himself." In his view, it is a kind of "civic training" to ask yourself to stand up for election.
Liang Shuxin's poor family when he was a child was the source of his enthusiasm for public welfare when he grew up. At the beginning of 2008, due to the snowstorm in the south, Liang Shuxin launched an online appeal and finally raised relief materials worth 2 million yuan. He has been involved in public affairs ever since. After the Wenchuan earthquake, he took some organizations related to Tianya community to Hongbai Town in Sichuan disaster area for psychological rescue.
With the help of his Tianya community platform, Liang Shuxin initiated the establishment of an NGO "micro-plan" focusing on rural education on 20 10, and set up a special fund "micro-fund" on 2010.5 million yuan. At present, the charity sale has raised10.5 million yuan to repair the rural primary school buildings in Guangxi and donated them to Sichuan and Yunnan.
But that's all. Liang Shuxin said that he never realized that ordinary citizens who have not been deprived of political rights and have reached the age of 18 also have the right to be elected as deputies to the National People's Congress and express their opinions.
20 10 Liang Shuxin was abused by the traffic police in a traffic violation. In a rage, he took photos of each other and posted them online. "He called me' you are a garbage' and left. I was dumbfounded, and this sentence made me decide to send him Weibo. "
"I violate the rules and regulations, but you scold me? You are a policeman. You should protect me. I am still a taxpayer. I asked him and his colleagues what their phone numbers were, but they simply ignored me. I must discuss it. This is also the behavior of a citizen of mine. " At that time, on the eve of the Asian Games in Guangzhou, Liang Shuxin felt that his complaint was also to maintain the image of the city. Liang Shuxin sent 10 Weibo, telling the details of the matter. After that, thousands of comments were forwarded, and the local mainstream media quickly followed up the report.
After the incident was exposed, the traffic police department apologized to Liang Shuxin. Liang Shuxin also apologized for the pressure he brought to the traffic police, but he realized what a citizen is. "If I encounter such a thing next time, I will do it again. If I am wrong, I am wrong. If you are wrong, you must admit your mistake ... This is the normal behavior of citizens to defend their rights. "
After he began to claim his rights, Liang's civic consciousness began to sprout. He began to notice that in Lijiang Garden, Panyu, where he lived for eight years, no one took the lead in solving the parking problem, lacking public facilities, schools, hospitals and public toilets. After running for deputies to the National People's Congress, he set his campaign slogan as "I love Guangzhou, and I would like to contribute to Guangzhou's neighbors". He set up a team of volunteers to help him campaign, with ten core members, including lawyers, public relations and media reporters.
In Liang Shuxin's past impression, NPC representatives are officials, entrepreneurs and stars who often appear on TV. He estimated that there are thousands of deputies to the National People's Congress in Guangzhou, and only a dozen of them he can know and often appear on TV. Later, he learned that there are 16 deputies in Panyu District where he lives. Apart from this figure, he doesn't know who these people are. For him, he needs someone, but he doesn't know who to look for.
Liang Shuxin said that he has no special personal political interests, but only regards self-recommendation as a kind of "civic cultivation." After he announced his candidacy, he learned the basic knowledge of how to run for deputies to the National People's Congress and what rights citizens have through his peers in Weibo.
When a group of ordinary people declared themselves to run for the grass-roots people's congress through Weibo, which became a small wave and was hotly debated, Liang Shuxin didn't think it was special. He thinks this is a strange thing to everyone now, just like he used Weibo to complain about traffic police enforcement. After a while, it may become very common.
At present, Liang Shuxin is waiting for the arrival of voter registration time in Guangzhou in July. He read a commentary in People's Daily in late May as the opening remarks of this interview: "We have ushered in a golden age of expression. But you can't let more voices sink. "
This should also be the prelude to the era of citizen self-recommendation for NPC representatives.
