Xiang Dongliang | Such a breach of the Dongting Lake really makes people feel no sympathy

When the flood comes, is it more important to block the breach in the dam or to block the mouths of civil servants?
Huarong County, Hunan Province, which is experiencing a breach in the Dongting Lake dam, has made its choice:
Let’s think logically as normal people:
A county with weak financial resources and limited rescue forces suddenly encounters a flood disaster. The first reaction must be to ask for help from the higher-level government and the whole society. Only when more people pay attention to the disaster in Huarong County will there be more attention from the higher-level authorities, more rescue forces will come to support, and more social materials and donations will be donated.
When encountering a danger that you cannot handle, you should shout for help. This is a truth that even a three-year-old child understands.
The Dongting Lake dam has breached, and the lives and property of more than 500,000 people in the county are in danger. Instead of quickly organizing all forces to speak out for help, you cover everyone’s mouths at the first time… To put it mildly, it is because the stability maintenance thinking has clouded your mind. To put it more seriously, it is that you don’t care about the safety of the people at all.

I know that some people will say that during the flood control and disaster relief period, social order and stability are extremely important, and it is reasonable to control the channels for information release. To be blunt, this is completely absurd thinking.
First of all, the current management capabilities of the public security and network information departments on network information can be said to be superb. Encouraging citizens to speak out and spread the disaster and cracking down on rumors and maintaining order are not in conflict at all. A one-size-fits-all ban on the release of information is a typical lazy government, and it is even more seriously detrimental to the evil policy of flood control and disaster relief.
Then, some leaders who have been away from the masses for a long time do not trust the common people, but the civil servants within the system should always be your “own people”, and you can always trust and rely on them, right? When you need online commentators, you put pressure on the civil servants of the whole county to assign tasks and set targets. When you really need to speak out and call for help from the whole society, you tell the civil servants of the whole county to shut up, and you are determined not to do anything, right?
In this way, you still have the face to call for social donations.

I’m sorry, I really can’t empathize with this.
I just donated 500 yuan to the Meizhou flood a while ago, and I also called on readers to donate at least tens of thousands of yuan, but I really can’t donate to the fundraising in Huarong County.

First, lacking real information from the people, I don’t know how much damage the flood in Huarong County has caused, I don’t know if the disaster in Huarong County is really urgent, and I’m not sure if the people of Huarong County need help.
After all, the leaders are the ones who release the disaster information, and the leaders are also the ones who release the fundraising information. I dare not question the leaders’ words, but I think the leaders’ income should not need my donation. I will pay attention after the disaster information and the request for help information from the people are released.
Second, the disaster relief that only allows the existence of general reports, I also find it difficult to determine that the donated donations and materials will be used in practice. As we all know, human nature cannot withstand the test, and donations must be subject to supervision. An environment that only allows one voice to exist certainly does not have the matter of supervision.
Without supervision, there is no donation. This is my personal principle.
