各位代表！
Fellow Deputies,

面對艱巨繁重任務(wù)，各級政府要自覺在思想上政治上行動上同以習(xí)近平同志為核心的黨中央保持高度一致，踐行以人民為中心的發(fā)展思想，落實全面從嚴治黨要求，堅持依法行政，建設(shè)法治政府，堅持政務(wù)公開，提高治理能力。要依法接受同級人大及其常委會的監(jiān)督，自覺接受人民政協(xié)的民主監(jiān)督，主動接受社會和輿論監(jiān)督。強化審計監(jiān)督。發(fā)揮好工會、共青團、婦聯(lián)等群團組織作用。政府工作人員要自覺接受法律、監(jiān)察和人民監(jiān)督。加強廉潔政府建設(shè)，堅決懲治腐敗。
In the face of difficult and weighty tasks, governments at all levels must closely follow the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core in thinking, stance, and action and practice the people-centered development philosophy. We must enforce full, rigorous self-discipline of the Party, exercise law-based government administration, build a rule of law government, ensure transparency in all government affairs, and enhance our governance capacity.
We will accept, as required by law, the oversight of people’s congresses and their standing committees at the same level, and readily subject ourselves to the democratic oversight of the CPPCC, public oversight, and oversight through public opinion. Auditing-based oversight will be stepped up. We will give full play to the role of trade unions, Communist Youth League organizations, women’s federations, and other people’s organizations. We in the government must readily accept the oversight of the law, supervisory bodies, and the people. We must redouble efforts to build a clean government and crack down on corruption.

各級政府要始終堅持實事求是，牢牢把握社會主義初級階段這個基本國情，遵循客觀規(guī)律，一切從實際出發(fā)，立足辦好自己的事。要大力糾治“四風(fēng)”，力戒形式主義、官僚主義，把廣大基層干部干事創(chuàng)業(yè)的手腳從形式主義的束縛中解脫出來，為擔當者擔當，讓履職者盡責。要緊緊依靠人民群眾，尊重基層首創(chuàng)精神，以更大力度推進改革開放，激發(fā)社會活力，凝聚億萬群眾的智慧和力量，這是我們戰(zhàn)勝一切困難挑戰(zhàn)的底氣。廣大干部應(yīng)臨難不避、實干為要，凝心聚力抓發(fā)展、保民生。只要我們始終與人民群眾同甘共苦、奮力前行，中國人民追求美好生活的愿望一定能實現(xiàn)。
Government at all levels must take a fact-based approach to work, and keep firmly in mind that we remain in the primary stage of socialism, which is the basic dimension of China’s national context. We must abide by objective laws, base everything we do on actual conditions, and deliver in our work.
In our efforts to address formalities for formalities’ sake, bureaucratism, hedonism, and extravagance, we will put a strong focus on the first two harmful practices, in order to release our primary-level officials from the fetters of pointless formalities and give full rein to their drive. We will stand behind officials who live up to their responsibilities, and we will work to see that they carry out their duties.
We must rely closely on the people, respect the pioneering spirit of those working at the primary level, advance reform and opening up with greater force, ignite the dynamism of our society, and bring together the energy and ingenuity of hundreds of millions of Chinese people. This is the source of inspiration that enables us to prevail over all difficulties and challenges.
We officials must not shy away in the face of difficulty; we must do solid work and make concerted efforts to pursue development and ensure the wellbeing of the people. As long as we stand together with the people through good times and bad and continue to forge ahead, we can surely fulfill the desire of the Chinese people for a better life.

今年要編制好“十四五”規(guī)劃，為開啟第二個百年奮斗目標新征程擘畫藍圖。
This year, we will formulate the 14th Five-Year Plan, thus drawing the blueprint for us to embark on a new journey toward the second Centenary Goal.

We will complete the crucial tasks laid down in the 13th five-year plan for the development of the armed forces and draw up the 14th five-year plan. We will deepen reforms in national defense and the military, increase our logistic and equipment support capacity, and promote innovative development of defense-related science and technology. We will improve the system of national defense mobilization and ensure that the unity between the military and the government and between the military and the people remains rock solid.

我們要全面準確貫徹“一國兩制”、“港人治港”、“澳人治澳”、高度自治的方針，建立健全特別行政區(qū)維護國家安全的法律制度和執(zhí)行機制，落實特區(qū)政府的憲制責任。支持港澳發(fā)展經(jīng)濟、改善民生，更好融入國家發(fā)展大局，保持香港、澳門長期繁榮穩(wěn)定。
We will fully and faithfully implement the policy of One Country, Two Systems, under which the people of Hong Kong govern Hong Kong and the people of Macao govern Macao, with a high degree of autonomy for both regions. We will establish sound legal systems and enforcement mechanisms for safeguarding national security in the two special administrative regions, and see that the governments of the two regions fulfill their constitutional responsibilities. We will support Hong Kong and Macao in growing their economies, improving living standards, and better integrating their development into China’s overall development, and help them maintain long-term prosperity and stability.

我們要堅持對臺工作大政方針，堅持一個中國原則，在“九二共識”基礎(chǔ)上推動兩岸關(guān)系和平發(fā)展。堅決反對和遏制“臺獨”分裂行徑。完善促進兩岸交流合作、深化兩岸融合發(fā)展、保障臺灣同胞福祉的制度安排和政策措施，團結(jié)廣大臺灣同胞共同反對“臺獨”、促進統(tǒng)一，我們一定能開創(chuàng)民族復(fù)興的美好未來。
We will adhere to the major principles and policies on work related to Taiwan, uphold the one-China principle, and promote the peaceful growth of relations across the Taiwan Strait on the basis of the 1992 Consensus. We will resolutely oppose and deter any separatist activities seeking “Taiwan independence.” We will improve institutional arrangements, policies, and measures to encourage exchanges and cooperation between the two sides of the Strait, further cross-Strait integrated development, and protect the wellbeing of our fellow compatriots in Taiwan. We will encourage them to join us in opposing “Taiwan independence” and promoting China’s reunification. With these efforts, we can surely create a beautiful future for the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

應(yīng)對公共衛(wèi)生危機、經(jīng)濟嚴重衰退等全球性挑戰(zhàn)，各國應(yīng)攜手共進。中國將同各國加強防疫合作，促進世界經(jīng)濟穩(wěn)定，推進全球治理，維護以聯(lián)合國為核心的國際體系和以國際法為基礎(chǔ)的國際秩序，推動構(gòu)建人類命運共同體。中國堅定不移走和平發(fā)展道路，在擴大開放中深化與各國友好合作，中國始終是促進世界和平穩(wěn)定與發(fā)展繁榮的重要力量。

Let us meet our challenges head-on, move determinedly forward in the fight against covid-19 and in pursuit of economic and social development, and strive to fulfill the targets and tasks for this year. Let all of us work together with perseverance to build China into a great modern socialist country that is prosperous, strong, democratic, culturally advanced, harmonious, and beautiful, and realize the Chinese Dream of national rejuvenation.
