“发展才是硬道理”,是邓小平同志在南方谈活中提出的一个著名论断,是他的发展理论的总概括。经济不发展,国际没地位,说话没分量,战争中挨打,竞争中被动,这已经是我们国家一个深刻的历史教训。过去,我们有丧失机遇的教训,也有改革开放以来急起直追、加快发展的经验。现在,加快发展的条件已具备,只要我们正确把握发展的方向,提高发展的质量,持续干上几十年,我们的宏伟目标一定能够达到。“发展才是硬道理”关系到我们国家的前途和命运,千秋功业,维系于此。 “Development is the absolute principle” is a famous assertion put forward by Comrade Deng Xiaoping in his talk in the South, and is a general summary of his development theories. The economy does not develop, the international status does not play, the weight of words does not matter, the war is beaten, and the competition is passive. This is already a profound historical lesson for our country. In the past, we have learned the lessons of lost opportunities and also have had the experience of catching up and accelerating development since the beginning of reform and opening up. Now that the conditions for accelerating development have been met, as long as we correctly grasp the direction of development, improve the quality of development, and continue to do so for decades, our ambitious goals will surely be achieved. “Development is the absolute principle” is related to the future and destiny of our country.
