On June 30, the Hong Kong National Security Law was gazetted; on July 8, the National Security Office of the Central People’s Government in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region was officially inaugurated!
Since the implementation of the National Security Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government has established the National Security Committee, the Police Department, the National Security Division, and the Department of Justice to set up a special prosecution section for national security crimes. The Chief Executive shall designate national security case trial judges in accordance with the law. The Hong Kong National Security Agency, this series of "combined punches" signifies that Hong Kong's implementation mechanism for safeguarding national security has basically taken shape, and Hong Kong has bid farewell to its history of "undefended" national security.
However, the anti-China and Hong Kong forces are not reconciled to withdraw from the stage of history, and are still fighting stubbornly.
On July 1st, although the leaders of Hong Kong said "cut the seats" and "retire the circle", they still incited cannon fodder to gather illegally on the streets, display drug flags, and attacked the police. Li Zhiying, He Junren, Lin Zhuoting and others At the "demonstration" at Baijie Station, Luo Guancong made a video link to beg the United States to "help" the thugs and openly opposed the National Security Law.
On July 2, Chen Shuzhuang, Guo Rongkeng, Tu Jinshen and others held a press conference to slander Hong Kong’s national security law undermining "one country, two systems", "the central government no longer trusts Hong Kong people", "Hong Kong national security law will affect everyone, even Taiwanese", etc. . The Hong Kong Bar Association also jumped out to "show professionalism", "worry" that the Hong Kong National Security Law "erodes the autonomy of Hong Kong people, undermines the independence of the judiciary and the fundamental freedoms of Hong Kong people", and spreads rumors that "some cases are tried in the Mainland, and it is difficult to ensure the rights of the defendant and obtain the rights. Fair trial".
On July 3, a "Taiwan lawyer" signed "Lv Qiuyuan" analyzed the "Hong Kong National Security Law" in the Internet media, saying, "If you go out for a walk, you will think you are going to parade to subvert the central government." "Anyway, I say you are guilty and you are guilty. It can be tried in the Mainland and tried by the people’s judges in the Mainland. In this case, everyone pleads guilty and each is a counter-revolutionary" and attempts to create a "Taiwan Independence and Hong Kong Independence Community of Destiny" to jointly fight the "Hong Kong National Security Law"; On July 7, there have been signs that Hong Kong disruptors have begun to study "currency resistance"...
On July 7, the chairman of the Trade Union Union Wu Miner posted a post on Facebook advocating the continued struggle "on the streets, parliament, international, and trade union fronts, none of which are indispensable." , And at the same time clarify the specific tasks of the "union front": "in the workplace, unite fellow travelers; in the industry, combat red capital; across Hong Kong, march towards a general strike; internationally, promote civil diplomacy."
On July 8th, after the National Security Agency was listed, a Hong Kong pornographic media published an article by Hong Kong independence activist Huang Zhifeng, slandering the Central National Security Agency in Hong Kong for "occupying the entire Metropark Hotel for deployment." When will it be launched, and at the same time expressing that he is "frank and fearless", the article focuses on "Finally, I can't tire of saying that voting in the primary election (legislative council) is important."
Internationally, foreigners of the forces that disrupt Hong Kong continue to make irresponsible remarks about Hong Kong’s national security laws.
The United States has passed the so-called "Hong Kong Autonomy Act" and nakedly interfered in the internal affairs of other countries in an attempt to preserve its political interests in Hong Kong. The bill claims to "sanction" individuals and companies that endanger Hong Kong's autonomy and restrict these individuals from trading in U.S. dollars.
saw that the eldest brother moved, the Canadian government, which has always been good at being a follower, also decided "will regard the export of sensitive materials to Hong Kong as no different from China, and at the same time prohibit the export of sensitive military supplies to Hong Kong" and said that the extradition treaty between Canada and Hong Kong will be suspended. .
In addition to the above-mentioned old-fashioned tricks to "constrain" and "check and balance" the national security laws of the port area, the "backstage countries" that chaotic Hong Kong have speeded up the opportunity to instigate the outflow of wealth and human resources in Hong Kong in an attempt to "short" Hong Kong and save its precarious economy . When the British Prime Minister Johnson spoke in Parliament on July 1, he proposed a clear naturalization path for BNO holders, claiming that they can apply to become a "British citizen" within 5 years.
Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison proposed on July 2 that Australia is considering providing Hong Kong people with a "safe haven" program and is preparing to issue temporary protection visas to Hong Kong "refugees" so that "refugees" can be Live in Australia for up to 3 years. On July 9th, Morrison announced the suspension of the extradition agreement with Hong Kong and provided Hong Kong people with an "immigrant plan"-Hong Kong people who come to Australia will extend their visa stay period to five years, after which they can apply for permanent residence. He also stated that Australia will also study new measures and arrangements to attract export-led Hong Kong companies to relocate to Australia.
All signs show that Hong KongIt will be a relatively long process to stop violence and chaos. The reactionary forces at home and abroad will not give up. They will continue to find ways to disrupt Hong Kong and hinder China's development. The implementation of the Hong Kong National Security Law is only a good start. There is still a long way to go to support Hong Kong's better adherence to "one country, two systems", "Hong Kong people ruling Hong Kong" and a high degree of autonomy.
Faced with the governance dilemma of Hong Kong’s intertwined history and reality, we need to explore the causes of Hong Kong’s chaos from a deeper level and solve the problem from the source.
We need to face up to the complexity of Hong Kong’s population and social structure. The elders and children under the British colonization, the traitors, secret agents, reactionary gang leaders, and the Kuomintang military police and officials who fled here after the founding of New China are all natural hostile groups; the British colonists used mines and poisons to oppose China. Propaganda has made many people in Hong Kong have suspicion, alienation, rejection and even hatred towards the Mainland and the country. The identity problem after the return of Hong Kong to has never been resolved. This can also explain why the opposition can hold public opinion during the legislative turmoil. It is no accident that the majority of seats in the district council elections.
We need to face up to the identification dilemma in the promotion of "One Country, Two Systems". Within Hong Kong society, the SAR government, the establishment, the opposition, the intellectual business elites, and the general public have different views on the overall central control power and the governance power of the SAR. They have different views on the relationship between "one country" and "two systems". Relationship opinions are difficult to agree with. This differential perception has been reflected in all aspects of Hong Kong’s social life. In addition, after the return of Hong Kong, the government and business governance model in the colonial era has not been corrected in time. The central government’s dividends and economic development have not benefited the public, and the gap between the rich and the poor is increasing. The structural contradiction of disparity is projected into the framework of "one country, two systems", and the result is that the country becomes the "scapegoat" for the real creator of the contradiction! Just as Professor Cheng Yongnian, an internationally renowned scholar and the Institute of East Asian Studies of the National University of Singapore, said, Hong Kong governance needs to achieve a "second return" in terms of popular support and identity.
We need to work hard to repair the social tears that have been aggravated by incidents such as "illegal occupation of the center" and "regulations". Different political values have affected the stability of the smallest family in society. In the controversy of the amendments, pan-violence and support for "resistance" once became the "political correctness" of young people. In addition, "violence can solve problems" and "have a case to make life more exciting" and other horrors, many young people in Hong Kong identify with the country. The degree is low, and even "barefoot Hong Kong, revolution in time" is the pursuit of life. In this situation, how to increase political mutual trust, strengthen exchanges and communication, especially to strengthen the guidance of national identity for the future generation of young people in Hong Kong, will always test the political wisdom of the government.
We need to urgently solve the people's livelihood dilemma facing Hong Kong society, especially the disparity between the rich and the poor and the problem of class consolidation in order to win the hearts of the people. Before the return of Hong Kong, the British Hong Kong authorities deliberately allowed the monopoly of real estate consortia, resulting in Hong Kong's current very deformed economic structure, and the hollowing out of the industry and serious bubbles. At the beginning of this century, Hong Kong did not advance with the times to complete the transformation of the knowledge economy, nor did it cultivate new economic growth points. Under this circumstance, if the redistribution of interests is carried out abruptly to solve the problems of people's livelihood, it will inevitably shake the cheese of vested interests and add new unstable factors. In this regard, the reform that affects the whole body needs to take care of the interests of all aspects of vested interests and the concerns of the vast majority of the people on practical issues such as freedom, development, security, and the rule of law.
We need to focus on solving the education problem in Hong Kong. In the annual university rankings published by Quacquarelli Symonds in the United Kingdom in 2019, the University of Hong Kong, the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, and the Chinese University of Hong Kong are all in the TOP50. It is a pity that the unique and high-quality educational resources under the integration of Chinese and Western cultures do not play a true role in educating people. The lack of education in terms of national awareness and patriotism has made some universities in Hong Kong used as mob bases in the turmoil of amendments. At the same time, the education system of Hong Kong high school and below is also full of yellow teachers and serious political tendencies in teaching materials. The poisoning of Hong Kong youths can be described as freezing and not a day. How to promote patriotic education, legal education and knowledge education to correct the distortion of history while strengthening national consciousness without overcorrecting, without interfering with normal educational scientific concepts, innovative methods and technologies, and continuing to maintain the academic atmosphere of independent research on Hong Kong education Views, distorted views of right and wrong, popularization of correct national and national history, agitation of national sentiments and the imprint of "I am a Chinese" are all issues that require serious consideration, because they involve Hong Kong’s future.Come.
Hong Kong at the moment is very much like a seriously ill patient. The virus hides in the body, not only destroying it, but also driving away cells that are neutral or beneficial to the body to kill each other. We must learn to be smart doctors, use Hong Kong’s National Security Act, supplemented by various medical methods, and actively carry out targeted treatment to restore the health of patients.
Because of the special location advantages, international influence, historical and practical contributions of Hong Kong's economy, especially the unique advantages of Hong Kong as an important international financial center in the overseas financing of Chinese enterprises, offshore RMB business, etc., they are all implemented The important foundation of "One Country, Two Systems".
In Hong Kong in early July, although there were still disruptive forces in Hong Kong, they still could not stop the SAR from the dawn of peace.
As the Deputy Director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council, the Director of the Liaison Office of the Hong Kong Central Committee, and the National Security Affairs Advisor of the National Security Commission of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Luo Huining said at the opening ceremony of the Hong Kong National Security Agency, The SAR's national security agencies work together to ensure that acts and activities that endanger national security can be effectively prevented, stopped and punished. The practice of'one country, two systems' in Hong Kong will definitely not be deformed or out of shape, and will continue to be rejuvenated."
May Hong Kong, under the protection of the National Security Law, walk steadily and achieve a better tomorrow!
(Original title: "Second Return", Hong Kong governance still has a long way to go...)
