Chapter 1106: Prepared
In fact, not only you are worried, but also the people in the mainland, donors from all walks of life are actually worried about whether these funds and materials will be withheld, embezzled, and misappropriated.
We have also dealt with the relevant assistance of the international community before, and the private donations received by overseas charitable organizations have expressed the donor's will, and they all require tracking the whereabouts and uses of the donations, and clearly state that this must be explained to the donors.
Therefore, when we were preparing to appeal to the international community for humanitarian assistance, we took this issue into consideration as early as above, and asked us to pay attention to the legal guarantees, institutional guarantees, and strict working procedures guarantees for collecting and making good use of domestic and foreign donations to ensure that no problems will occur.
To this end, the Committee of the International Decade for Disaster Reduction and the Ministry of Civil Affairs have established three systems: first, the audit department is invited to intervene in advance to follow up the audit; Second, all personnel participating in disaster relief must be fair and honest. The necessary operating expenses shall be reimbursed by the government, and disaster relief funds and materials shall not be used; Third, all disaster relief funds and materials must be clearly located and given a credible answer to donors. We will ensure that all localities will solve the difficulties of food, clothing, shelter, and medical care for the disaster victims, and resume production and rebuild their homes."
President Zhou was afraid that Qiao Feng would not believe in his own security, so he explained to Qiao Feng in detail the state's procedures and arrangements for accepting donations and related uses, as well as the construction of a clean government.
Qiao Feng nodded frequently when he heard this, of course this arrangement is the best, donors can rest assured, and the government's image can be guaranteed.
It's just that this International Decade for Disaster Reduction Committee, Qiao Feng doesn't quite understand the specific functions.
After President Zhou's explanation, Qiao Feng understood that the International Decade for Disaster Reduction Committee was not only the name with the international, in fact, this organization was established in 1989 in response to the call of the United Nations.
This is due to the experience of dealing with international aid over the years.
No wonder President Zhou said that the country is very aware of the donation model of overseas charitable organizations.
It turns out that this is not the first time for international rescue after a disaster.
It's just that this is the first time I've taken the initiative to ask for help.
Among them, China also has a process of understanding, from the rejection in 1976 to the passive acceptance in 1980, and then to the initiative request through the Red Cross Society of China in 1987, until this year, the government directly appealed to the international community on a large scale for the first time.
China's road to foreign aid for disaster relief has gone through a process of closure, semi-closure, opening, and active opening.
The China International Decade for Disaster Reduction Committee is a product of this context.
In this flood in East China, Minister Cui of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, who is also the vice chairman of the Committee of the International Decade for Disaster Reduction in China, felt that the role of this organization should be played and all forces should be mobilized to participate in disaster relief.
"The arrangement process for accepting donations and using donations, and the detailed rules for supervision are all arranged and formulated by Minister Cui himself." President Zhou explained.
"Prior to the issuance of the appeal, the Disaster Risk Reduction Commission and the Ministry of Civil Affairs worked with relevant departments to formulate detailed procedures for receiving and processing disaster relief donations.
After the donation work begins, from the overseas institutions to the relevant departments in China, they all strictly follow the regulations.
The unit responsible for the specific receiving work must insist on every donation of money and materials, and issue receipts and letters of thanks to the donors on the spot; For each donation or transfer, the name and amount of the donor shall be notified to the recipient area, and the destination of the funds and materials shall be notified to the donor; The distribution of donations is also announced to the public through the media, and is open to the supervision of the society and the audit and supervision of the relevant departments.
More than 30,000 staff members of 4,000 donor agencies across the country will carry out disaster relief donations in an orderly manner under strict procedures and strict discipline."
"Oh, in this case, will we all issue receipts for these donations, and send us thank-you letters? Qiao Feng asked.
"Of course, you can arrange for someone to supervise the use of these Mr. Qiao, I think Mr. Qiao, you wireless and Ming Pao have sent people to the disaster area to report, and the use of donations must also be included in the report. The reality of rebuilding your home allows you to see for yourself whether your donations are actually used and how they are being used."
"Okay, President Zhou, on behalf of caring people from all walks of life in Hong Kong, I am waiting for the invitation of the motherland." Qiao Feng laughed and laughed.
President Zhou's detailed explanation gave Qiao Feng a reassurance.
No way, because all the systems of the country itself are different from most countries and regions.
In this case, if the country asks for assistance from the international community, the international community will definitely look at you with a microscope, and even the slightest problem will be magnified wirelessly.
Not to mention the international community, the people in China are not willing to divert their donations for other purposes.
Once this happens, it is the credibility of the country that is damaged.
Not to mention this time, even twenty or Chinese New Year's Eve years later, this kind of thing will happen, and it will cause some controversy.
Qiao Feng didn't want to see that the donation was not used to the blade, but it also tarnished the country's image.
But fortunately, at this time, public servants are far more simple and honest than decades later, and there should not be many people who dare to reach out.
After all, talking about money at this time is still a thing that many people feel ashamed of.
Moreover, we all know that how to distribute and use the funds and materials donated for disaster relief is a major issue of greatest concern at home and abroad, and it is closely related to the image of the party and the government, and the resolution of the people's living and production difficulties in the disaster areas.
In this kind of matter, the state will definitely strictly control the disaster relief process, pay close attention to the construction of a clean government, and will not give moths a chance, nor will it let go of any rat who dares to stretch out his hand.
The "Disaster Reduction Committee" and the Ministry of Civil Affairs must strictly abide by the regulations of the State Yuan, adhere to the principle of "using the scope of use to solve emergency rescue, transfer and resettlement, arrange the livelihood of disaster victims, and rebuild their homes", and timely allocate and ensure key points.
Qiao Feng believes that as long as they can do this, they will definitely see a new look when they are invited to the disaster area next year.
