The revision of Hong Kong's electoral system has entered the final stage. The Legislative Council will continue to debate the Second Reading of the "Improvement of the Electoral System (Consolidated Amendment) Bill 2021" today (27). It is expected to be passed today.

Many establishments supported the amendment at the meeting yesterday, believing that it would help plug loopholes, prevent "anti-China and disrupt Hong Kong" from entering the governance structure, implement "patriots ruling Hong Kong", and help "one country, two systems" achieve stability and long-term development.

The passionate citizen Zheng Songtai expressed his opposition to the draft, worrying that the practice of obtaining the nomination of the election committee to run for the Legislative Council would strengthen nepotism and extend corruption.

"Hong Kong 01" will continue to update the focus of today's meeting.

[10:40] Zeng Guowei, Director of the Constitutional and Mainland Affairs Bureau, said that he thanked the National People's Congress for its decision and the efforts of colleagues in the Legislative Council.

The government has carried out interpretation work from many aspects to make the society understand that the reform is to implement the rule of Hong Kong by patriots, ensure the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong society, and return to the original goal of "One Country, Two Systems".

He pointed out that in the past few months, a lot of focus has been on "who can run for election and vote", but in fact, any discussion cannot be separated from the original intention of "one country, two systems", Hong Kong's constitutional order and the reality. He criticized some people in the past. Ignore the original intention of the central government's policy of "Hong Kong people ruling Hong Kong and a high degree of autonomy", and use the central government's sincerity and tolerance to do all kinds of things that confront a country and challenge central governance.

Zeng Guowei also pointed out that some people are dissatisfied with the loss of their original influence and voting committee votes after the restructuring, but I hope that everyone understands that the restructuring is to ensure the stability and long-term development of "one country, two systems." avoid.

[10:30] Xie Weijun pointed out that there is no problem in opposing the draft, but the content of the speech by colleagues who opposed the draft this time is disappointing. The name refers to Chen Peiran in the medical field because he is afraid of losing. To protect the interests of the medical profession.

[09:35] He Junyao said that the Legislative Council passed the regulations smoothly, believing that Hong Kong is entering a new era and it is a combination of the central authorities. He said that in the future, it is necessary to legislate on Article 23 of the Basic Law and to optimize the functions of district councils.

He Junyao said that the opposition launched a color revolution that failed and never succeeded earlier. Therefore, it is inevitable to improve the electoral system to plug loopholes in the electoral system.

He also pointed out that since those who have left but destroyed Hong Kong, since they have a heart for Hong Kong, they should all have a heart for China.

[09:26] The DAB Chen Hengpin stated that after improving the electoral system, the parliament returned to reason, without intense scenes or rabble.

He said that in the past, the opposition believed that the government could not be supervised without Rab, but he believed that it was suffering from "Stockholm Syndrome," and stressed that it was Rab who lost his ability to supervise.

Chen Hengpin also pointed out that after the amendment, a "care team" was set up to give priority to seniors over 70, pregnant women, and people with disabilities. He said that in the past, the above suggestions and electronic ticket dispatching suggestions have been advocated, but the government has refused to implement them. Reflects "nothing can do nothing."

Chen Hengpin believes that arrangements can be made for by-elections. For example, for direct regional elections, the dual-seat single-vote system is now adopted. It is believed that each team can send two people to elect. If someone is disqualified as a member or in other circumstances, the other will be elected. The second-ranked person can replace another seat to avoid recurring events such as "General Resignation" and "referendum".

[09:16] The DAB Zheng Yongshun said that some people describe the improvement of the electoral system as a major operation. He agrees that the major operation can eliminate anti-China and chaotic Hong Kong people and make Hong Kong a healthy and democratic. This is everyone's favorite. .

He specifically mentioned that under the new electoral system, the composition of the Election Committee has also changed. Among them, in the category of "community associations", he pointed out that although the Hong Kong Chaozhou Association has not been included, they have been making great progress. His work is worthy of recognition.

[09:05] Chen Jianbo in the insurance industry said that in recent years, the opposition has become radical, attacking government governance, and has no time to deal with issues such as people's livelihood.

He also pointed out that the opposition has messed up Hong Kong, colluded with foreign forces, and used attacking the government as its political capital. This has caused the government to be short-sighted and passive. The high efficiency of the past is gone, and the deep-seated contradictions have not been resolved.

Chen Jianbo believes that after improving the electoral system, Hong Kong no longer has to waste time in political struggles, and can concentrate on solving various problems, while jumping out of old thinking and transforming it into a policy of benefiting Hong Kong for the people.
