The National People's Congress revised Hong Kong's electoral system, and political circles are concerned about whether the democrats will still run for the Legislative Council in the future.

Frederick Fung, a former member of the four-term Legislative Council, believes that as long as the democrats follow the original aspirations of "one country, two systems," the "Basic Law," and Hong Kong people ruling Hong Kong, they can still continue to stand for elections, and "everywhere is justified."

Frederick Fung pointed out that he had already called for pressure groups to participate in the election in the British Hong Kong era. Since the status of the election will be different, he can talk directly with government officials to urge the government to improve people's livelihood issues, and at the same time obtain resources to promote ideas in the region.

As for whether he will stand for the election personally, Frederick Fung's reply to "Hong Kong 01" inquiries only said: "I have not been idle", and emphasized that the election is only a tool, the most important thing is to obtain resources, and to promote during the election process The platform, "It’s not that you have the right to be elected or the first to be elected."

Five types of people should no longer stand for election. Democrats can still pursue democracy and double universal suffrage

Frederick Fung stated on an Internet program that when most democrats formed political parties, their original intention was to implement "one country, two systems", Hong Kong people ruling Hong Kong, a high degree of autonomy, the Basic Law and double universal suffrage. I can't really understand how to run for the election. With this original intention, I will be confident to the extent." He also suggested that democratic parties should pay attention to reviewing their political platforms and whether party members' words and deeds violate the "Hong Kong National Security Law."

Frederick Fung believes that there are five categories of people who should no longer run for the election, including those who are pro-American and pro-Western Europe, those who advocate Hong Kong independence, those who advocate the overthrow of the Chinese Communist Party, those who use violence to achieve their goals, and those who attack the "Hong Kong National Security Law." .

He believes that democrats can still pursue democracy and double universal suffrage when they participate in politics. "There is a problem? The Basic Law states that Articles 45 and 68 are related to double universal suffrage." But Frederick Fung pointed out that there is a dispute between China and the United States. In an unusual situation, it is estimated that the central government will not allow Hong Kong to open up to democracy and development until one day the United States will stop attacking China.
