On February 11, Guangming Daily published a commentary article by Professor Wang Fan, Dean of the School of Business, Sun Yat-sen University, "Building a Systematic Emergency Management System for Epidemic prevention and Anti-Epidemic". He said that we are going through a highly contagious epidemic COVID - 19 which's related to the life and health of thousands of families. How to effectively realize the emergency management and risk management of “early identification, early warning, early detection, and early treatment” has put forward realistic and urgent requirements for promoting the modernization of national governance system and governance capacity.

 

In the face of epidemic, Guangdong province adhered to scientific and innovative management ideas, and established a systematic emergency management system for epidemic prevention and anti-epidemic through the construction of "technology network", "system network", "care network" and "dedication network". A full coverage management organizational structure for epidemic prevention and anti-epidemic was built with the grassroots community as the node. The internet and informatization were used to ensure efficient information communication for epidemic prevention and anti-epidemic. The organizations for epidemic prevention and anti-epidemic were dynamic with the Party members as representatives.

 

In the prevention and control of the epidemic, Guangdong continued to implement "to promote the shift of the focus of social governance and service to the grassroots, and allocate more resources to the grassroots", make full use of the internet and informatization to provide more precise and sophisticated services. "Build an emergency management system with unified command, with both professional and regular personnel, being responsive, and with coordination at different levels". That is exactly the practice of the fourth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee on promoting the modernization of national governance system and capacity.
