Causes loss of trust

This is manifested in the fact that they only talk but don't act, they only make promises and then do nothing, or they shout slogans and appeals for the people's benefit but fail to take concrete, practical actions to bring about the people's legitimate rights and interests.

This is evident in the fact that they are close to the people but still don't understand their feelings. Although they interact with the people, they only engage in propaganda, persuasion, and explanation according to their own subjective desires. Even if they listen to the people, it's merely "listening to know," essentially ignoring them.

Then there are those who appear close to the people but are actually distant from them. When they meet the people, they greet them warmly with questions, but in reality, they don't genuinely care. That's why you might ask, "Is your grandfather still well?", when "your grandfather" has long since passed away!

More dangerously, these populist tactics are often veiled in a sophisticated, glamorous facade that not all citizens can easily recognize. They intentionally perform certain superficial actions to both avoid being perceived as unfriendly to the people and to some extent win their favor.

These manifestations reflect an alarming decline. The people are always discerning and always judge and evaluate the Party primarily through the qualities, character, ethics, and lifestyle of its cadres and members. History has proven that "The people can both steer the boat and overturn it." Our Party has also established regulations requiring cadres and members not to be indifferent, not to merely pay lip service to the people, and not to live distant from them.

Our ancestors also had a saying: "If you say nine, do ten; if you say ten and do nine, people will laugh and criticize," which is meant to remind us to always value and uphold trustworthiness, and to match words with actions.

Therefore, combating apathy and demagoguery is a constant task for Party committees at all levels and for every cadre and Party member.
