The long-established Hong Kong University Law School used to be in the eye of politics, and the post of dean has not been able to find a suitable candidate.

"Hong Kong 01" learned that Fu Hualing, Acting Dean of the Faculty of Law, was recommended as the only candidate for the dean of the Faculty of Law. If the school committee approves the appointment next Tuesday, he will formally "sit down."

Fu Hualing has been interviewed by the media and believes that the implementation of the "Hong Kong National Security Law" is a "lose-lose" for China and Hong Kong. If the central government exercises its jurisdiction, it will even mean that the "two systems" are dead.

Fu Hualing has taught at the University of Hong Kong for more than 20 years. From 2008 to 2011, he served as the dean of the school's law department and is currently the acting dean of the law school.

He was born in the Mainland, is familiar with mainland criminal law and specializes in human rights law.

He obtained a bachelor's degree from Southwest University of Political Science and Law in 1983, and then went to Canada to study for a master's degree and doctorate.

The "Minato National Security Law" was implemented in July. Fu Hualing said in an interview with the media that the "Minato National Security Law" is a "lose-lose" for both China and Hong Kong. Once the "central jurisdiction" is activated, it means there is no " Two systems".

He also believes that the legal provisions are "spicier" and too extensive than imagined. Someone should take responsibility and find ways to slowly amend them.

He Yaoming, a professor at the Faculty of Law of the National University of Singapore and a professor at the Faculty of Law of the University of Hong Kong, succeeded Chen Wenmin as the Dean of the Faculty of Law in July 2014.

However, after Ho has served for more than three years, he decided not to renew his tenure after his term expired in June last year.

In early 2018, Hong Kong University established a selection committee for the dean of the Faculty of Law to find a new dean. At that time, it was reported that Simon Bronitt, an Australian scholar, and Ling Bing, a mainland scholar and former deputy dean of the Faculty of Law of CUHK, were recommended as candidates. A consensus was reached and both of them "lost the election."
