Democrats approve textbooks and textbooks suddenly become "sensitive matters"

Many democratic parliamentarians are in favor of the relevant arrangements. Ye Jianyuan, a member of the Legislative Council of the education sector, believes that the candidate should clearly explain how to preside over the meeting fairly and clarify the future work of the committee, including whether it involves strengthening government control of textbook compilation, otherwise it will cause fear that the group will impact the education system.

Mo Naiguang of the information technology industry criticized that textbooks for primary and secondary schools and kindergartens suddenly became "sensitive projects" in Hong Kong. He questioned that the bureau often defended the policy of "constant effectiveness", but now it "converts the constant effectiveness into intervention". It's like "leading Qing soldiers into the customs, and asking people to join me."

People's Power Chen Zhiquan questioned how the term of the current Legislative Council is only half a month, how the group has not become a "textbook and textbook criticism conference", but has achieved the group's work goals and results. He also asked the legal adviser to clarify whether the content of the discussion at the meeting would be protected by the "Privilege Law" if the materials discussed at the meeting were suspected of being forged.

If it is to be handled, a public hearing can be held. Parents and students can provide the teaching materials. "The court will talk about the evidence. ...... But the boss is a member of the Parliament. Do we have to question the authenticity of the textbook? "She also refuted the team's non-intervention textbook compilation." There are many parents complaining, it is not a matter of interfering with the textbook, it is about caring for my children. "

The DAB Ge Gefan criticized that the opposition wants to "encourage speculation in education" and does not allow the meeting to discuss the issue of academic textbooks. She pointed out that the current general education materials do not need to be submitted for review. There are teachers who teach the wrong history of the Opium War. Those who question the main teaching materials are not respected and respectful. The Legislative Council needs to follow up.

DAB Liang Zhixiang threatens DQ

At the meeting, Liang Zhixiang of the DAB questioned Liang Yaozhong's intention to delay the meeting. At one time, he used the word "warning" to request the other party to handle the election of the chairman as soon as possible, otherwise he would "write a letter to the chairman of the Education Commission DQ (disqualification).

Liang Yaozhong emphasized that presiding over meetings in accordance with conventions is in accordance with procedures and respects the right of Members to speak. "Anyone can speak because of the Privileges Act, but you warn me and threaten me, I will not be convinced, I do n’t know how to follow ... you can write to the chairman, the chief executive, and even Xi Jinping. "
