With the development of society, the role and influence of the government is increasing. Government performance is not only directly related to the interests of the public, but also affects the public's trust in the government. This paper will discuss the relationship between government performance and public trust.

First of all, good government performance is the need to build a clean and transparent service-oriented government. An effective government needs to have the characteristics of high efficiency, fairness and transparency, which are the important basis for the public to trust the government. If the government's performance is not good, it may lead to the decline of public trust in the government, and even lead to social dissatisfaction and opposition.

Secondly, improving the efficiency of public management is an important goal of government performance. The government needs to effectively manage public resources and improve the quality and efficiency of public services to meet the needs of the public. If the government does not perform well in managing public affairs, it may lead to waste of resources, low service efficiency and decreased public satisfaction, thus affecting public trust in the government.

Finally, ensuring that government functions play a role is the key to government performance. The government needs to effectively perform its functions, including maintaining social stability, promoting economic development and providing public services, in order to achieve social prosperity and progress. If the government cannot effectively perform its functions, it may lead to frequent social problems and the public's trust in the government will decline.

Generally speaking, there is a close relationship between government performance and public trust. Good government performance can improve public satisfaction and enhance public trust in the government. The inefficiency, unfairness and opacity of government performance may lead to the decline of public trust in the government and even cause social problems. Therefore, the government needs to constantly improve its performance in order to win public trust and achieve social stability and prosperity.
