Early Detection and Proper Handling of Mass Incidents, Work Hard to Maintain Sustained Social Stability in the Provincial Capital

Abstract

In recent years, all kinds of mass incidents have continually been increasing in our city, the difficulty in detecting and handling them has increased, and this has already become a prominent problem affecting social stability. Since 1994, 1,566 mass incidents and their early stages have been discovered and handled throughout the city, and over five years the average annual growth has been 55.4%, and they have accounted for 13% of the overall volume in the province. In their degree of impact on society, the crimes and extreme actions of a minority have increased, the degree of violent opposition is increasingly severe, participants come from all strata, some people with ulterior motives interfere and incite, and some incidents reach a certain size and momentum. In terms of sources of conflicts and disputes, people coming from various locations around the province to gather in the city account for about one-third of all incidents, and these people account for the vast majority of mass incidents that occur in front of the Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government. These happen nearly every day, and sometimes there are several per day, and they create great pressure on social stability in our city. Faced with the increasingly prominent situation with mass incidents, our city’s public security organs have done much effective work. Over the past five years, no mass incidents have occurred that caused social turmoil in the city, the various mass incidents that have occurred and their early stages have basically been properly handled, and social stability has effectively been maintained. First, face society, rely on all levels of party and government leadership, push all sides of society to join forces, and ensure all specific measures are fully implemented – this is the key to achieving social results in our work. Mass incidents have complex, deep social backgrounds and are a manifestation of social conflicts, and it is difficult to properly resolve the issues by only relying on public security organs. Over the past few years, our city’s public security organs have relied on the leadership of party committees and governments at all levels, actively promoted the coordination and cooperation of all sides of society, and initially formed a set of socialized working mechanisms that have placed a great role in practice.
