Under the new election system, the functional constituency of the education sector "five-member melee", Deng Fei, the vice chairman of the Federation of Education, moved to the election committee sector. In an interview with "Hong Kong 01", he emphasized that he should not be a "rubber stamp" and face cross-industry Individual voters must have the ability to integrate policies and find common interests between the country and the sector, "not to emphasize patriotism and overall awareness."


Deng Fei advocated the promotion of patriotic education and the establishment of a syllabus to ensure that the quality is up to standard, but it is not necessarily an independent subject. He also pointed out that the Legislative Council can set up a dedicated mechanism for monitoring.

He believes that patriotic education does not need to avoid teaching the Communist Party system. The Communist Party, as the only ruling party in the Mainland, must at least be understood and respected by students.

As for whether students in primary and secondary schools in the Mainland should learn "Xi Jinping Thought", he asked whether the information was true and emphasized that the learning system should be emphasized.

Promoted by the female headmaster and moved to the Election Committee due to the "narrow" seats in the education sector

Deng Fei, the vice chairman of the Federation of Education, was originally scheduled to run for the legislative council's education functional constituency last year. After the restructuring of this legislative council election, he decided to move to the newly-added electoral committee category and compete for 40 seats with another 50 people.

The previous seats in the education sector have always been held by the Education Association. The Federation of Education Associations failed in repeated competitions. He denied that he moved to the newly-added electoral committee because of fear of losing seats. He explained that the seats in the education sector were too "narrow". Overemphasize the rights of teachers, ignoring the overall education issues; on the contrary, the election committee seats across five sectors, thinking about policies at a macro level, can break industry limitations, have an education major, and are good at connecting with all sectors, and have a wide range of contacts , "You're welcome to say something, I play a lot."

Candidates for the electoral committee sector must be nominated by 10 to 20 electoral committees, and are elected by equal votes, with a maximum of 40 votes being elected.

Deng Fei said that he has successfully won the nomination of 16 selection committees, including Liu Jin Lijuan, Dean of Diocesan Girls' Books, Dai Xili, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, Zhuang Shaosui, Honorary Chairman of the Chuang Shi Group, and Zhan Jianlun, the selection committee of the financial services industry who was recently sued by the ICAC.

Denying making a "rubber stamp" requires finding common ground between sectors and national interests

There are 40 seats in the electoral committee sector from 1,448 people. He said that it is difficult to assess individual odds. "Someone will be sure!" Deng Fei said. The Legislative Council passed a policy bill. He described these 40 members as being highly patriotic, but not only emphasizing patriotism, but also having the ability to coordinate policies, find common ground between sectors and national interests, and emphasize that they are not "rubber stamps."

When asked if the Legislative Council discusses the issue of the independent development of national education and the education sector does not respond enthusiastically, or even does not want to implement it, how to choose the priority between the interests of the country and the industry, Deng Fei said that he would lobby the industry until it agrees. The country takes the lead, but the interests of the country and the sector are "unity." "If you don't push, the people of Hong Kong will feel that Hong Kong and the mainland are getting further away. One country, two systems is a gloomy prospect, and Hong Kong will be over."

Deng Fei emphasized that students need to learn the Communist Party system.

Promote "key inspections" to cover the scope of patriotic education

Deng Fei’s political platform advocates the promotion of patriotic education, and formulates syllabus and teaching requirements to ensure that the quality meets the standards.

At present, national education is not an independent subject. In primary and secondary schools, through moral education and civic education, different learning fields and school activities are infiltrated to cultivate national identity, and the proportion of relevant class hours is also set; each subject of primary and secondary schools is gradually implemented in national security education, middle school this school year The senior high school civic and social development subject is implemented, and the content of the curriculum is divided into two-thirds of elements related to national conditions. Students must go to the mainland to exchange once.

Deng Fei believes that "the department is not enough for the majors, and the amount is not enough." Even if there are communes in the new school year, there are still some shortages from kindergarten to elementary school. For each, it is necessary to formulate a syllabus to clearly define the teaching content and requirements of each grade.

He suggested that the teaching content must pay equal attention to the past and the present, emphasize the promotion of traditional Chinese culture, and also understand the development of contemporary China. He also pointed out that there is no need to avoid teaching the Communist Party system.

Deng Fei pointed out that patriotic education is emotional education, which must train students to love the country and Hong Kong; whether it is necessary to love the party, he believes that the Communist Party, as the only ruling party in the Mainland, must at least be understood and respected by students.

As for whether students will be asked to learn "Xi Jinping Thought" after imitating the primary and secondary schools in the Mainland, he asked whether the information is true and emphasized that the system should be studied.

Deng Fei also suggested that the Educational Affairs Committee of the Legislative Council should be promoted to establish a special working mechanism to supervise the implementation of patriotic education and regularly evaluate the effectiveness of education.

He believes that the Education Bureau's "focused inspection" does not cover the scope of patriotic education, and promotes the establishment of a dedicated mechanism to facilitate multi-faceted supervision. He denies that the proposal is to distrust the Education Bureau, or make the frontline exhausted.

Deng Fei said frankly that he suggested that Hong Kong should be built as an international education brand and the diplomatic examination courses should be further promoted internationally.

If the education system achieves the international branding of education, the future of Hong Kong's education will not be too bad; if you only look at the books and reduce the number of schools and teachers, it will be gloomy. I believe that many people will jump ship and transfer to private or international schools.

Contribute to avoid shrinking classes and killing schools: public schools charge out-of-town students at their own expense

The birth rate has fallen, coupled with the wave of immigration, the insufficient enrollment of primary and secondary schools, and the academic community is worried about shrinking classes and killing schools.

Deng Fei said that with the decrease of school-age children, it cannot be solved by administrative measures or financial means alone. It is recommended that Hong Kong education should be built as an international brand, and the diplomatic examination curriculum should be further promoted internationally. Students from other places go to public middle schools, elementary schools, and even kindergartens to solve the problem of shortage of students.

Deng Fei suggested that foreign students can enroll in Guanjin schools at their own expense, and the school must submit the relevant tuition to the Education Bureau.

As for whether there should be a lower limit on the number of places for foreign students, he thinks it can be discussed. Personally, there is no need to set a limit because most of them are non-profit-making schools except for private schools. limit.

He also suggested that students who come to study in Hong Kong can be granted the right of abode, which can solve the problem of aging population in the long run.
