To tell engaging stories about Beijing and make its voice heard, the Translation and Interpretation Center of Beijing Foreign Affairs Office, in collaboration with China Academy for Public Policy Translation of Beijing International Studies University, has initiated a series titled “Understand Beijing: One Key Phrase a Day”. From this year’s Beijing Government Work Report, thirty seven trending policy buzzwords have been selected. Their elucidation,along with the official translation,is now being published to highlight the significant measures Beijing has undertaken in pursuit of high-quality development and the resultant achievements. Through this series, we aim to foster a deeper understanding of our city among foreign institutions and nationals in Beijing.

One-stop online government services

This refers to an initiative designed within the broader context of Beijing's smart city development. It leverages the generic capabilities and technological support of the comprehensive digital government platform to offer standardized procedures for government services and streamlined process for online administrative services, with one consolidated access channel that replaces the previously dispersed online service systems. As such, this initiative will provide a unified web portal for online government services, as well as a unified access platform for mobile users. The goal is to include all government service items in this platform, except those otherwise specified by laws and regulations or involving state secrets, ultimately allowing for the processing of all procedures online.
