The Politics of Trust:On a Survey of Mobile Medical Service in the PRC by the People’s Daily
(Hu Tian-jiao)
The formation of a cohesive sense of trust in a political community is a key step in improving the governance capacity of a country.As we reviewed the eventful history of the new China,mobile medical service provided timely relief to areas in shortage of medical care,potentially connected people’s emotions and perceptions in different regions,especially between urban and rural areas,and consolidated the people’s political trust in the state and the collective.The backdrop of the system lies in the credibility and direct support of the CPC and the country,oriented to the fundamental values of socialism.In a socialist country,the path of development,with serving the people as the value orientation,can be better explored,only when the basic principle of serving the people is clearly defined and when there is sympathy and empathy for the people.
