The government is studying to amend the "Oaths and Declarations Ordinance". District councillors will be included in the scope of oaths. The draft will be submitted to the Legislative Council after the Lunar New Year. Political circles expect that the oaths by district councillors may trigger a DQ wave.

The vice chairman of the Democratic Party and North District Councillor Lin Cheuk Ting was asked today (28th) how to deal with the arrangements for the swearing-in of the district councilors. He said that "there is no way to deal with it." There is nothing to fight."

Lin Zhuoting attended the network program today and accepted an interview with Emily Liu, former chairman of the Democratic Party.

Lin Zhuoting: If the government wants DQ, it will be bad

Lin Zhuoting attended the network program today and accepted an interview with Emily Liu, former chairman of the Democratic Party.

Lin Zhuoting said that the content of the oath of district members is currently unknown. He believes that if the content of the oath is the same as that of the legislative council members, it is impossible to see why the Democratic Party did not participate in the oath.

Lin Zhuoting believes that whether or not the district councillors take the oath is not the key point. The key is what excuse the government will use to accuse the district councilors of insincere oaths. Speaking, then your oath is not true".

The Democratic Party sits on nearly 90 district councillors and is the largest party in the district council. When asked what the party has to deal with, Lin Zhuoting said, "There is no way to deal with it." "It (the government) wants the DQ (the district councilor) to be evil. Even if the democrats win the case in the Court of Final Appeal, the government can still interpret the law by the National People's Congress.

Lin Zhuoting was arrested on suspicion of subverting state power by the National Security Police for participating in the primary election earlier.

Speaking of young people who have been criticizing the Democratic Party's line for being too moderate, Lin Zhuoting responded with "the road is far from knowing the horsepower", saying that participating in the democratic movement has already expected to sacrifice, "the way I choose is no complaint or regret."

He believes that the political environment is changing too quickly, and he sends a message to young people to calmly see the situation before doing things, and to avoid acting and responding solely to immediate emotions.

Regarding the recent "fanning incident" at the Chinese University, Lin Zhuoting, who graduated from the Department of Political Science at CUHK, said that the incident was worrying and quite unhappy. He believed that the school should not take the initiative to call the police and arrest students. People sometimes "do more and two steps before they go." Schools should tolerate and understand young people instead of suppressing them with power. Even if students are successfully punished, students will not be convinced.

He also described that the current university campus is "under the cover of the nest, and there is no end to it." Under the "National Security Law", there is no space for free speech in Hong Kong.
