Senior Counsel Xia Boyi, who succeeded Dai Qisi as the chairman of the Bar Association, said immediately after being elected earlier 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 Liaison Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China issued a manuscript today (29th), criticizing Xia Boyi by name. "And criticized his remarks for completely deviating from professional ethics and professional conscience, and for completely losing the spirit of the rule of law and the principle of rule of law. "It not only fully exposes personal arrogance and ignorance, but also drags the Bar Association further into the abyss. It has already aroused the legal profession. All sectors of Hong Kong society are angry."
Liaison Office: Xia Boyi abused his chairmanship to mislead the public
The spokesperson of the Liaison Office emphasized that the authority of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress cannot be challenged and that Hong Kong’s constitutional order must be resolutely maintained. He also pointed out that the Constitution and the Basic Law together constitute the constitutional basis of the Special Administrative Region. One of the important connotations is that Hong Kong is In a special administrative region of China, the National People’s Congress is the highest authority of the country. The National People’s Congress and its Standing Committee have enacted national laws and included them in Annex III of the Basic Law. They are applicable to the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. This is an indisputable sacred power.
The Liaison Office criticized, "As a senior barrister, Xia Boyi could not fail to understand such common sense of law. In any sovereign country, national security belongs to the central authority. When Hong Kong maintains national security, there are system loopholes, social stability and the welfare of citizens suffer. When serious harm occurs, the NPC Standing Committee’s enactment of the Hong Kong National Security Law is completely legitimate and necessary, and authority cannot be challenged."
The spokesman also said that Xia Boyi abused his status as the chairman of the Bar Association to mislead the public in terms of basic facts and legal principles. What is his intention?
Openly treating the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress as a threat, and even more nakedly challenging the constitutional order of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region as determined by the Basic Law, challenging national sovereignty and the bottom line of "one country, two systems."
The Bar Association is unfair and rational
The spokesman said that in the past three years, the Bar Association has been on major constitutional legal issues concerning "One Country, Two Systems" and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. "He also pointed out that many people within the Bar Association did not agree with or support its biased stand and radical words and deeds, and emphasized that "some political cadres and organizations will not be allowed to engage in acts of chaos and disaster in Hong Kong under the cloak of professionalism."
