Supporting the Implementation of Effective Service Guarantees for Foreign Affairs by Following a People-Centered Foreign Affairs Philosophy. We always adhere to the people-centered principle, stand firm in the people’s position,uphold the people-centered foreign affairs philosophy, and exhibit the defining feature of foreign affairs in the new era. The satisfaction rating by primarylevel organizations and the general public serves as a barometer for our work.We have provided heartfelt, practical solutions for the people, streamlined and integrated foreign affairs services, such as consular legalization, the APEC Business Travel Card, passports, and visas, created a smart platform for foreign affairs information, facilitated “one-stop” procedures, and constantly advanced information-driven development. “Aided by data, the people are freed from errands.” These actions have improved people’s sense of security and gain. We had a full implementation of the service management of business visits, established the “green channel” for scientific and technical personnel to travel abroad, and paid close attention to the urgent concerns of foreignrelated businesses. By researching and visiting primary-level organizations and businesses, we have promptly assisted businesses through foreign affairs resources and channels, granted export-oriented businesses greater initiative in “going global” and “bringing in”, and facilitated Chongqing’s enterprises in developing their overseas markets more quickly and efficiently. We remain committed to the major requirements of ensuring effective COVID control,stable economic performance, and safe and secure development. We rose to the occasion and swung into action, taking on the responsibility of preventing inbound cases and doing our best to protect citizens’ lives. With optimization and adjustments to entry prevention and control policies based on the times and circumstances, cultural exchanges between China and the rest of the world as well as opening up to the outside world have been promoted. In 2022, more than 400 inbound cases with positive COVID-19 test results were addressed,and no local epidemics were associated with those cases. Effective COVID-19 containment guarantees openness. Our efforts have assisted businesses in resuming work and production, as well as the city as a whole in maintaining stable economic performance. We always care about the safety of overseas citizens. We worked hard to protect the legitimate interests overseas of Chongqing citizens and legal persons, handled overseas consular protection cases in a timely manner, and avoided possible risks.

The new mission inspires us, but we still have a long way to go on this new journey. As we march into a new year, the 20thNational Congress of the Communist Party of China and the 2ndPlenary Session of the 6thCPC Chongqing Municipal Committee will continue to serve as the guiding principle of Chongqing’s foreign affairs institution. We will proactively plan and advance foreign policy on the Chinese path to modernization. We will embrace the new era, embark on a new journey, and build a new Chongqing in accordance with our sense of responsibility and mission of losing no time. We will expedite the development of the Center for International Exchanges in Central and Western China, fully support the high-quality development of foreign affairs, actively support China’s diplomacy, and make new and greater contributions to the growth of a modern, new Chongqing.
