He said that in its campaign, the ministry must focus on leadership at all levels and use “the courage of self-revolution and spirit of rectification (整风的精神),” work to further solidify loyalty, strengthen party leadership, improve its “political ecology,” and make stricter its goals for disciplined work style. Zhao also called for the ministry to address “impurity” of ideology, politics, organization, and work style, “get rid of bad apples,” purify its ranks, and ensure that the ministry’s ranks “provide a staunch political guarantee for earnestly carrying out the New Era mission and tasks entrusted by the Party and people well.”
