After chatting with the children for a while, Lin Siya probably understood that the biggest problem in the village at present is the lack of educational resources.
This is a common phenomenon in rural areas in this era. If they want to change the current situation, their generation will have to make a lot of efforts. She is alone and her role is too insignificant. Despite this, she also wants to do something.
Thinking of this, Lin Siya took Xiaowen to where they worked, a mottled wall.
The original slogan on it had long been blurred, and the two men began to pick up tools and work.
The children in the village, especially those who got candy, looked at them with curiosity.
After completing the preparations, Lin Siya also decided what to write on it.
Lin Siya wrote on the wall stroke by stroke, her handwriting clear and powerful.
"Knowledge changes destiny."
These six simple words contain endless power.
"Sister Lin, how do you pronounce these words?" Several children looked at the bright words on the wall curiously, their eyes full of desire.
"Knowledge changes destiny. The meaning of this sentence is very simple..."
Lin Siya tried hard to explain the meaning of this sentence to the children. She wanted to sow a small seed in the children's hearts, hoping to reap beautiful fruits one day.
The children gathered around the wall and whispered this sentence.
Lin Siya looked at them, her heart full of hope.
No matter how small her power is, as long as it can bring a little inspiration and a little change to these children, that is enough.
She believes that the future will always be better.
What Lin Siya didn't know was that just as she was explaining the meaning of this sentence to the children, a group of people came here.
Among this group of people was the biggest leader of this operation, the city’s deputy secretary, Pang Jianshe.
"Knowledge changes destiny! This sentence is well written! Hahaha."
When Lin Siya saw Deputy Secretary Pang, she hurried forward to greet him.
She had rarely met Deputy Secretary Pang in her daily work and had only seen him at the last meeting.
"My dear young comrade, I don't think I've ever seen the slogan above before."
"Hello, Deputy Secretary Pang, I just thought of this slogan."
"Oh?" Deputy Secretary Pang piqued his interest. "You, young comrade, are quite creative. Can you tell me about your original intention in writing this slogan?"
To be honest, Lin Siya was a little nervous facing such a high-ranking leader all of a sudden.
"Deputy Secretary Pang, this Comrade Lin Siya is the female comrade who captured the enemy spy a while ago."
Someone in the crowd reminded Pang Jianshe.
"Oh? So you're that heroic lesbian! Seeing is believing."
Lin Siya felt a little embarrassed after hearing this.
"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it. Let me answer your first question first."
She began to relay to Deputy Secretary Pang what she had just heard from the children and expressed her own opinions.
"Deputy Secretary Pang, I believe that a country's development is inseparable from education. Education is an important means of cultivating talents and promoting social progress. A strong education makes a country strong, and a prosperous education makes a country prosperous. Education is the future of a country and the cornerstone of its development. Therefore, I believe that the saying that knowledge changes destiny is very consistent with current views. Moreover, the President once said that women hold up half the sky. Therefore, I believe that rural girls also have the right to receive an education."
Lin Siya did not tell everyone about what the children had just said about girls not needing to study, but just calmly stated her own views.
She didn't expect to change anything just by going to the countryside. She just hoped that her views could be known to the people above her and attract their attention.
Deputy Secretary Pang nodded frequently, agreeing with Lin Siya's point. "Comrade Xiaolin said it very well. We can't ignore the importance of rural education." He looked at the other accompanying personnel and said, "Everyone should seriously consider the issues raised by Comrade Lin and earnestly do a good job in rural education."
As a leader, Deputy Secretary Pang travels around various villages all year round and is very worried about the current education. This is mainly because the villagers in some villages are stubborn and there is no good solution for the time being.
Deputy Secretary Pang then turned to Lin Siya and said, "Regarding the lack of rural education, the city will do its best to find a solution. You young people have ideas and are motivated, so keep working hard! Of course, if Comrade Lin has any good ideas, please feel free to bring them forward."
Lin Siya thought for a moment and spoke.
"There are actually several reasons why rural education lags behind. One is that the villagers' mindsets haven't changed. They think studying is useless and it's better to work on the land at home. The second reason is the lack of conditions. I just asked a few children, and they said that if children in the village want to go to school, they have to walk dozens of kilometers, which is quite difficult for young children. Another reason is the lack of educational personnel..."
After hearing Lin Siya's clear and logical analysis of the current problems in rural education, Deputy Secretary Pang also felt that it made a lot of sense.
"So, Comrade Lin, what suggestions do you have?"
"I think we can set up some teaching centers in the village to gather the children for education. Of course, the teaching in the village can't be as standardized as that in a regular primary school. It can just help the children learn a few more words so that when they move to the city, they won't be confused about public toilets. Of course, if the village has the conditions, we can also build a decent primary school, which would be even better."
