There is a change called “as a last resort”.
There is a kind of change to remain unchanged.
On March 11, after a vote in the fourth session of the 13th National People’s Congress, the “Decision of the National People’s Congress on Improving the Electoral System of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region” was approved with a high number of votes. Kong “(” Resolution “). .
What has changed?
There are three main points: one is the Elections Committee, the other is the Legislative Council, and the other is the establishment of a candidate qualification review committee.
The “Resolution” stipulates that the Electoral Committee will be made up of a total of 1,500 members from five sectors. This expanded the political participation of Hong Kong residents. And this electoral committee can nominate candidates for the executive position and elect candidates for the executive position; You can also nominate candidates for the legislative council and elect some members of the legislative council.
The “Resolution” stipulates that the number of members of the Hong Kong Legislative Council will be increased to 90 per session. The selection method is through three methods: election committee election, functional group election, and direct district election.
The “Resolution” provides for the establishment of a committee to review the qualifications of the candidates. The committee is responsible for reviewing and confirming the qualifications of candidates for the election committee, candidates for the executive director, and candidates for the legislative council.
Why do you want to change this way?
First ask three questions:
What if there is a gap on your doorstep?
What if your family gets into a group of ghosts due to a leak at the door?
What if these creepy people who broke into your home due to a loophole still want to steal your home’s real estate certificate?
There may be several methods, but the answer is definitely the same: fill in the gaps and let these ill-intentioned people out.
Similarly, if you ask this question at the national level, the answer is the same.
The “Resolution” solved all three problems.
The “Resolution” filled in the gaps in Hong Kong’s current electoral system.
The “Resolution” fully implements the principle of “patriots ruling Hong Kong” in terms of institutional mechanisms.
The “Resolution” ensures comprehensive central government governance over Hong Kong, ensures Hong Kong’s long-term prosperity and stability, and the consistent and far-reaching practice of “One Country, Two Systems”, providing a strong and powerful constitutional guarantee. .
Now you know why it changed.
Because these changes have eliminated hidden dangers and risks in Hong Kong’s institutional mechanisms, they have ensured that “the people of Hong Kong rule Hong Kong” with the patriots as the main body, and ensured that the practice of “one country, two systems “in Hong Kong always move in the right direction.
The change is for the long-term stability of Hong Kong and for Hong Kong’s prosperous, stable and prosperous future.
The NPC improvement of the Hong Kong electoral system this time is reasonable, reasonable and legal.
Of course, there is the same in change.
What has not changed? “One country, two systems”, “Hong Kong governing Hong Kong” and “the policy of a high degree of autonomy” have not changed, Hong Kong is China, Hong Kong has not changed and the principles of the Basic Law have changed . without changes.
Sourabh Gupta, principal investigator at the Institute for China-American Studies (ICAS) at the Institute for China-American Studies (ICAS), said that improving Hong Kong’s electoral system will ensure that the “Pearl of the East” Hong Kong is an elected government. more democratically representative.
Improving the electoral system of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) will ensure a “more representative government” in the Pearl of the Orient.
Former British MP George Galloway objectively stated that “swearing allegiance” is the minimum, it must be done and there is no room for negotiation.
The news website “Russia Today” is titled “China’s parliament approves the proposal to reform Hong Kong’s electoral system with the commitment of the patriots,” which is positive and objective.
The “Russian Satellite News Agency” with the title “Hong Kong Chief Supports Beijing Resolution on Reform of the Electoral System in the Region” (Hong Kong Chief Supports Beijing Resolution on Electoral System Reform of the region) comprehensively and comprehensively commented on the public statement of the Head of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. Executive Carrie Lam. Reports.
The South China Morning Post, which has a great reputation in Southeast Asia, also headlined “Hong Kong’s electoral reform will not block the opposition as there are also patriots among the pan-democrats” (Hong Kong’s electoral reform will not block the opposition anymore that there are also patriots among pan-democrats), the deputy director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council, Zhang Xiaoming, who is in charge of the daily work, positively published the statements about the perfect Hong Kong electoral system.
All this proves one point: the amendment and improvement of Hong Kong’s electoral system by the National People’s Congress are justified by the will of the people and the general trend.
Although the Western anti-China media, which have always been unreasonably disturbing the three points, continued to criticize the issue of the perfection of Hong Kong’s electoral system, they were pale and weak.
The prestigious British magazine “The Economist” wrote a relatively hostile report. The interesting thing is that The Economist, before “BUT” (but) criticized the transition towards improving Hong Kong’s electoral system, also had to admit that “when Hong Kong was handed over to China in 1997, it was far from democratic. In fact, Hong Kong was far from democratic. The Governor of Hong Kong is appointed by the Queen of England. Only a third of the members of the Legislative Council are elected. “
When Britain handed Hong Kong over to China in 1997, the former colony was far from being a proper democracy. Its outgoing leader was a governor sent from London. Only a third of its legislators were directly elected by the public.
Now that the facts are so clear, what else can I say? The next hundred “BUT” (but) don’t make sense.
Criticism lacks confidence, and criticizing for criticism shows its intention to “disturb three points.”
Other outlets, such as the “Associated Press” and “Bystander” magazines, have only a handful of them. Even if Western anti-China forces engage in a “G7 Statement on Hong Kong Electoral Changes”, it is nothing more than the old-fashioned rhetoric of the past, such as “serious concern”, “calling on the Chinese and Hong Kong authorities Kong to restore confidence in Hong Kong’s political machinery, “etc.
In the words of Deng Zhonghua, deputy director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council, this is precisely “to better safeguard the general interests of Hong Kong.”
In fact, the amendment to Hong Kong’s electoral system is in line with the demands of the general public and is also a necessary measure for the better development of Hong Kong and the maintenance of prosperity and stability.
In fact, this time the anti-China media in Western countries have made no sense, because the revision of the Hong Kong electoral system by the Chinese People’s Congress is in full compliance with the Constitution of China and the Basic Law of Hong Kong. . Furthermore, a word or a punctuation mark was not changed by article 45 and article 68 of the Basic Law.
Also, the Hong Kong issue is China’s internal affairs, what right does the other country have to interfere?
As Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Khatibzad said, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region is part of China and Hong Kong-related matters are China’s internal affairs. The National People’s Congress of China made this decision in accordance with the “one country, two systems” principle.
Vietnam Foreign Ministry spokesman Le Thi Thu Heng also said that Hong Kong affairs are China’s internal affairs and he hopes Hong Kong can maintain stability, prosperity and development.
Western anti-China forces not only have no right to intervene, China also has to allow the conspiracy of Western anti-China forces to break.
In the words of Zhang Xiaoming, deputy director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council in charge of the daily work, “this is a contest involving the seizure of power and the seizure of power, subversion and counter subversion, infiltration and osmosis. On this issue, we have no room for concessions. “
“‘One law breaks Hong Kong’s peace and electoral rules determine the journey.’ The electoral system and electoral rules have been further amended and straightened out. This can ensure that ‘one country, two systems’ send ‘Hong Kong’ Break the waves and ride, and Hong Kong will definitely be tomorrow. Better, “said Zhang Xiaoming.
