In his speech, Wang Chen said that it is necessary to improve Hong Kong's electoral system, including the method for the selection of the chief executive and the method for the formation of the legislature, to ensure that Hong Kong is governed by "patriots," which is conducive to safeguarding the interests of national security and development.
He pointed out that since Hong Kong's legislative amendments in 2019, anti-China forces and local separatist forces have openly advocated "Hong Kong independence" and openly used the legislative council, district council platforms and public officials' status to act unscrupulously and oppose China's chaos in Hong Kong. , To obstruct the SAR government’s administration in accordance with the law, plan to obtain the leading power of the Legislative Council through illegal preliminary elections, and then seize the power of governance in Hong Kong.
Wang Chen pointed out that the social chaos in Hong Kong shows that there are obvious loopholes and shortcomings in the current electoral mechanism. It is an opportunity for the anti-China chaos in Hong Kong to seize the power of governance in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. It is necessary to take necessary measures to improve the Hong Kong electoral system and eliminate the hidden dangers and risks of the institutional mechanism. , To ensure that Hong Kong people with patriots as the main body rule Hong Kong, to ensure that the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region governs in accordance with the law, so that the realization of one country, two systems will proceed in the right direction.
He said that the Patriot standard is to support Hong Kong wholeheartedly and not to damage Hong Kong’s prosperity and stability. Hong Kong has been a Chinese territory since ancient times. The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region is an inseparable part and a local administrative region with a high degree of autonomy. He quoted the late leader of the country Deng Xiaoping. It is pointed out that Hong Kong must be governed by patriots. As long as the patriots govern Hong Kong, the central government's overall governance power can be effectively implemented.
