　　To this, the relevant departments responded –

The person in charge of the Vehicle Reform Office of the Fuzhou Development and Reform Commission:

The "official taxi" is a plan designed by the company itself, which is completely a market behavior, and the government does not participate. For "official taxis", Fuzhou City has not given any investment or subsidies, nor has it signed any cooperation agreement.

The public attention on the reform of public transportation is high, and enterprise innovation services should not be used as an opportunity to hype, let alone cause public misunderstanding.

Relevant person in charge of Fuzhou Bus Taxi Co., Ltd.:

The company believes that the civil service car market has great potential after the bus reform, and the "official taxi" launched this time is a business conduct aimed at exploring the market.

The "20% discount for civil servants" clause in the plan is a promotional method for enterprises to expand the market; "providing services for civil servants’ family cars" is also a way of publicity to expand the number of customers.

CCTV Comment: A Dialectical View of "Official Taxi"

"Official taxis" have exploratory significance

　　For some time, the reform of buses has gradually deepened, and many places have been reforming buses"shift period"Try to reform the supporting system. In this context,"Official taxi"Going into people’s field of vision and trying to solve the problem of civil servants’ travel in a socialized way has certain exploration significance.

　　This time, Fuzhou Bus Taxi Company launched"Official taxi"Service, if it is true as the Fuzhou Development and Reform Commission’s Vehicle Reform Office said, the government did not participate in the decision-making of the enterprise, and the government did not invest or subsidize it during operation. Then, it can be seen that the enterprise makes business decisions based on the judgment of the official travel market.

　　In the process of comprehensively deepening reform, it is essential to properly handle the relationship between the government and the market.In many areas of reform, the government’s blanket model has gradually withdrawn, and enterprises have filled the vacuum through social services, which is a normal phenomenon in many cases.If only this time"The government belongs to the government, and the market belongs to the market."Perhaps people’s concerns are overblown.

"Official taxis" cannot be reduced to "privileged cars"

　　Since it is"market behavior"Why has it aroused such high public concern and concern? In one sentence, it reveals the secret, that isPeople were worried that this was a resurgence of the irrational use of official vehicles, that the "privileged service" would reappear as a vest, that new bottles of old wine would be put into old bottles in some places during the reform, and that the painstaking reform of public transportation would be abandoned halfway…

　　People’s anxiety is not without reason."Official taxi"There are several details in the service that raise concerns.

　　Well, first of all."Official taxi"The target audience is mainly civil servants. As we all know, in a market economy, no product can be suitable for all ages and everyone. Any product or service is only aimed at a specific target group. However, when serving the target group, the product should not discriminate against non-target groups. Regrettably,The target audience of "business taxis" is strictly limited, and even "requires passengers to show official documents", which is feared to become a "privilege" again…

　　Secondly,"Official taxi"The service provider is Fuzhou Bus Taxi Company, a state-owned enterprise. The left hand is a government agency, and the right hand is a state-owned enterprise. People worry about whether there will be transactions behind it. On the one hand, state-owned enterprises escort the car services of government departments; on the other hand, when enterprises lose money, will the government pay for it? Although the form has changed,People are concerned that this is still taxpayers paying for unreasonable official vehicles…

　　And thirdly,"Official taxi"20% off for private travel of civil servants. Such"Special products"or"Special needs service"For ordinary people, it is definitely not a blessing. Since public officials travel privately, why don’t they take taxis or buses like ordinary citizens? On the other hand, the 20% discount service may be a bonus and service extension of the usual official ride.Since official travel is paid by the public and benefits from private travel, what is the rationality?

Adhere to "market logic" and let "official taxis" become "sunshine taxis"

　　Of course, the above concerns inevitably lead to scrutiny of the details with magnifying glasses, and inevitably lead people to think the worst. But this just shows that the road to reform has never been smooth, and only by adhering to the right direction and principles can we ensure the final success of reform.

　　"Official taxi"It is not a bad thing to cause anxiety. Only through analysis and discussion can the truth become clearer and clearer.As long as we firmly adhere to the direction and principles determined by the bus reform, firmly adhere to the socialization and market-oriented reform logic, and ensure openness and transparency in decision-making and operation, "official taxis" will move towards the direction of "sunshine taxis", and the bus reform will not be far from success.
