1994年7月20日,中央召开了第三次西藏工作座谈会,确定了“对口支援”的方针。这次会议,对西藏人民来说,是应该永远铭记的,它对西藏各项事业的发展而言,是一个改变历史进程的时刻,具有重大的战略意义。2001年6月,在中央第四次西藏工作座谈会上,决定将对口援藏工作在原定10年的基础上再延长10年,同时,增加了3个省和15户国有重要骨干企业分别承担对口支援任务,把原来未列入对口支援的29个县和双湖特别区全部纳入对口支援范围。到目前,18个省市和中央国家机关的50多个部委、15户国有重要骨干企业,对口支援西藏区直各部门和74个县区,西藏所有的县区全部纳入对口支援范围。以此为标志,中央对口支援西藏的战略决策得到了全面实施。 对口支援工作密切了西藏与内地的交流与联系,进一步增强了中华民族的向心力和凝聚力。援藏干部绝大多数是“优中选强”派来的,他们用新的观念、新的思路、新的方法有力地带动了西藏干部群众解放思想、更新观念。为加强西藏各级领导班子建设,改善干部队伍的民族、文化、年龄结构,增添了生机与活力。中央的关心,全国人民的大力支持,极大地激发了西藏各族人民自力更生、艰苦奋斗、确保稳定、力求发展的内在活力,促进了西藏国民经济持续、快速、健康发展。对口支援工作开展8年来,西藏的 On July 20, 1994, the Central Government held the third symposium on working in Tibet and set forth the policy of “counterpart assistance.” This meeting, which should be forever remembered for the Tibetan people, is a momentous change in the historical process for the development of various undertakings in Tibet. It is of great strategic significance. In June 2001, at the Fourth Symposium on Tibet Work of the Central Government, it was decided to extend the work of counterpart assistance to Tibet for a further 10 years on the basis of the original 10-year plan. In the meantime, three major key enterprises in 15 provinces and 15 state-owned enterprises To assume the task of counterpart support, all 29 counties and Shuanghu special areas originally not included in the match-up support should be included in the scope of counterpart support. Up to now, more than 50 ministries and commissions and 15 state-owned key enterprises in 18 provinces, cities, central government agencies and counterparts support all departments and 74 counties directly under Tibet and all counties and districts in Tibet are included in the scope of counterpart support. With this as a sign, the strategic decision of the central counterpart supporting Tibet has been fully implemented. The counterpart support work has closely linked the exchanges and contacts between Tibet and the Mainland, further enhancing the centripetal and cohesive force of the Chinese nation. The vast majority of cadres aiding Tibet are sent by “excellent, middle, strong, strong” forces who have effectively boosted the cadres and masses in Tibet to emancipate their minds and update their concepts with new ideas, new ideas and new methods. In order to strengthen the building of leading bodies at all levels in Tibet and improve the ethnic, cultural and age structures of the ranks of cadres, they have added vigor and vitality. The concern of the Central Government and the vigorous support of the people throughout the country have greatly stimulated the inherent vitality of the people of all ethnic groups in Tibet for their self-reliance, hard work, stability and development, and promoted the sustained, rapid and healthy development of Tibet’s national economy.
