Senior Counsel Xia Boyi, who succeeded Dai Qisi as the chairman of the Bar Association, said after being elected last week that some provisions of the "Minato National Security Law" violated the "Basic Law" and suggested that the "Minato National Security Law" should be amended in exchange for the restoration of foreign countries and Hong Kong. Agreement to surrender fugitives.

The mainland official media "People's Daily" published an article yesterday (25) criticizing Xia Boyi for distorting and discrediting the "Hong Kong National Security Law" and losing the basic professionalism and rationality of legal persons.

The article pointed out that the Bar Association has become more politicized in recent years. It has used its voice and social influence to promote disasters and disturbances in Hong Kong, seriously deviating from the spirit of the rule of law, and seriously challenging the bottom line of the principle of "one country, two systems."

The People’s Daily article stated that Xia Boyi distorted and discredited the "Hong Kong National Security Law" and described Xia Boyi’s claim that he hoped that the SAR government would revise some provisions of the "National Security Law" as absurd remarks. Professional and rational.” The article stated that the “Minato National Security Law” is in full compliance with the “Basic Law”, emphasizing that national security is the central authority. The “Minato National Security Law” is a national law enacted by the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress, and local governments have no power at all. modify.

The article pointed out that half a year after the implementation of the National Security Law, the chaos of severe social violence has been reversed. "The so-called "human rights status", have you heard the voice of ordinary Hong Kong citizens who do not want to be harassed by black violence and return to a peaceful life? ?"

"People's Daily" criticizes the politicization of the Bar Association's position as deviating from the spirit of the rule of law

The article criticized that the Bar Association’s stance has become more politicized in recent years. It has issued multiple statements on the legislative turmoil, targeting the SAR government and the Hong Kong police, becoming "inciters" and "rapists". Xia Boyi, who was arrogant, disappointed the Hong Kong people again, and the Bar Association, who was worried about "changing the soup without changing the medicine", continued to slide into the abyss of "partyization" and "hype speculation."

The article denounced the Bar Association’s actions, which not only seriously deviated from the spirit of the rule of law, but also seriously challenged the bottom line of the "one country, two systems" principle. Its reputation and credibility have been continuously damaged. I advise the Association not to lose its professionalism and professionalism, and let the political stand first or even override the law. on.
