这次全国统计科学研究工作会议在广州召开,讨论全国统计科研工作规划,交流统计科研工作和统计学会工作经验,落实今明两年统计科研的主要任务,这对广东是一次很好的学习机会。我代表广东省统计学会向与会同志表示热烈的欢迎。近些年来,我国的统计科研工作取得了一定的成绩。各级统计学会组织开展了许多群众性的统计学术活动,在政府统计系统也组织了一些统计科研活动,这对推动统计工作的发展曾产生了积极的作用。但从总体上看,研究力量还比较分散,科研工作尚缺乏统一的组织和规划,研究领域也亟待拓宽。随着国家,省级和计划单列市的统计科研机构相继成立,初步形成了全国的统计科研网络,使统计科研工作有了一支专职的统计科研队伍,这不仅在数量上壮大了统计科研队伍,更重要的是使统计科研工作有了核心,它将使统计科研活动有可能向更高层次发展。几年来的实践表明,并且还将继续证明,专业统计科研和群众性的统计科 The National Conference on Statistical Science Research was held in Guangzhou to discuss the national statistical research work plan, to exchange statistical research work and work experience of the Statistical Society, and to carry out the major tasks of statistical research in the next two years. This is a good learning opportunity for Guangdong. On behalf of the Statistical Institute of Guangdong Province, I extend a warm welcome to the participants. In recent years, China’s statistical research has achieved some success. Statistical societies at all levels organized and conducted many mass statistical academic activities, and organized some statistical research activities in the government statistical system, which had played a positive role in promoting the development of statistical work. However, on the whole, research power is still relatively scattered, there is no unified organization and planning for scientific research, and research fields need to be broadened. With the establishment of statistical research institutes at national, provincial and municipalities, the national statistical research network has been initially established, which has enabled the statistics research work to have a full-time statistical research team, which has not only strengthened the number of statistical research teams More importantly, it has made the core of statistical research work. It will make it possible for statistical research activities to develop at a higher level. Practice over the past few years has shown that it will also continue to prove that professional statistical research and mass statistics
