新華社北京9月12日電 中共中央總書記、國家主席、中央軍委主席習近平9月11日給紅其拉甫海關全體關員回信，對海關系統干部職工更好履行職責使命提出殷切期望。

習近平在回信中說，你們克服高寒缺氧等困難，扎根雪域邊疆的國門一線，忠于職守，默默奉獻，創造了不平凡的業績，展現了新時代海關人奮發有為的精神風貌。今年是海關關銜制度實行20周年，借此機會向海關系統全體同志致以誠摯的問候！

習近平強調，海關擔負著守國門、促發展的職責使命，做好海關工作意義重大。希望同志們胸懷“國之大者”，弘揚海關隊伍的優良作風，提高監管效能和服務水平，筑牢國門安全屏障，助推高質量發展、高水平開放，當好讓黨放心、讓人民滿意的國門衛士，為強國建設、民族復興積極貢獻力量。

Xi replies to letter from customs workers

President Xi Jinping has called on customs workers in China to uphold fine conduct and improve supervision and services to serve the country's high-quality development and high-level opening up.

Xi, also general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, made the remarks on Monday in a letter replying to workers of the Khunjerab Pass, the land port on the China-Pakistan border in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.

In his letter, Xi said they have overcome difficulties such as cold temperatures and low oxygen air, and stayed committed to their duties, demonstrating the fine spirit of customs workers in the new era.

As this year marks the 20th anniversary of the implementation of the customs rank system in China, Xi extended sincere greetings to customs workers across the country.

Workers stationed at the Khunjerab Pass recently wrote to Xi, expressing their determination to contribute to advancing Chinese modernization.
