The chief executive election will be held in March next year. There are divergent opinions on the potential chief executive, but so far no one has chosen to step out of the sand circle.

In an interview with "Hong Kong 01", Zhu Zhaolin, founder of the Hong Kong Sustainable Development Research Center and a member of the National Society for Hong Kong and Macau Studies, said that the current police system is strong enough. It will help promote the development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and help Hong Kong integrate into the overall development of the country.


He said that in the business sector, Li Xiaojia, the former chief executive of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, and Chen Zhisi, the convener of the executive meeting, are regarded as powerful "dark horses". However, he believes that the current Chief Executive Carrie Lam has a high chance of being re-elected. The government is capable of implementing Article 23 legislation of the Basic Law and national security education policies. Otherwise, if a newcomer who has not been baptized by the political turmoil is on the court, it will be difficult to perform hard tasks.


Zhu Zhaolin said that governors must have an international perspective, Li Xiaojia, Chief Executive Chen Zhisi, "dark horse"

The dust of Hong Kong's political reform has been settled, and the focus of the next SAR government's policy is expected to be to resolve deep-seated conflicts in Hong Kong.

Zhu Zhaolin mentioned that after Hong Kong has gone from chaos to governance, the next step must be to focus on economic development, including participation in the Greater Bay Area and the construction of the "Belt and Road". It will be advantageous to be led by people with a business background.

He continued that to lead a company to make money, businessmen need to have a thorough understanding of market conditions and often have a unique business sense. He cited the first Chief Executive Tung Chee-hwa as an example, "Chinese Medicine Port, 85,000 (Housing Project), Cyberport... "Everything went well." However, due to the social atmosphere at that time, the effect was not as good as desired.

He pointed out that governors need to have an international perspective and cohesion, while officials from political affairs officials focus on execution and order. If they have never been in contact with the commercial society, they can easily become "closed doors" when formulating policies.

When asked about potential business leaders, Zhu Zhaolin mentioned that both Li Xiaojia and Chen Zhisi are regarded as powerful "dark horses". Li Xiaojia is familiar with financial developments in China and abroad, which will help Hong Kong strive for international development opportunities and strengthen Hong Kong's status as an international financial center. , And Chen Zhisi is known as "the king of public office," and he is also a member of the guilds of the four dynasties.

Lin Zheng has the ability to perform hard tasks and has a high chance of being re-elected

Carrie Lam is regarded as one of the candidates for reelection. Zhu Zhaolin believes that Carrie Lam has a high chance of being re-elected, saying that she has rich administrative experience, has experienced political turmoil, and is capable of implementing regulations such as Article 23 of the Basic Law and national security education. On the contrary, a newcomer may not be able to perform the task.

He said that the current disciplinary forces and law enforcement agencies "have to be hard and hard enough." If the central government wants a smooth transition, re-election by Carrie Lam is also a good choice.

He used the analogy of business operations. When a subsidiary company has problems, the parent company will consider it from two perspectives. "First, since the most difficult time has passed, the parent company only needs to participate in decision-making in order to remain unchanged in response to the ever-changing situation. And management, the leaders of the subsidiary do not need to leave, but if the parent company wants to explain to the public and depend on the work performance, it depends on whether the parent company can find a more suitable candidate to replace it."

In the 2016 Election Committee subsector elections, the democrats won more than 300 seats in one fell swoop, accounting for more than a quarter of the total.

With the introduction of the new electoral system this year, this situation is no longer possible.

Zhu: Democrats educate voters and the central government will delegate power sooner or later

The nomination period for the subsector elections of the Special First Committee ended last week. There are very few candidates from the democratic camp. Will the democratic camp be nearly extinct in the future?

Zhu Zhaolin said that the biggest mistake of the democrats in the past was that they tried too much of the red line. Now they are seeking benevolence and benevolence. "Try to draw the central red line to the lowest level."

He believes that if the democrats can re-educate voters so that they understand what is meant by "one country, two systems" and the SAR governance authorized by the central government, sooner or later the central government will delegate power to the democrats.

The "Minato National Security Law" has been implemented for more than a year. Zhu Zhaolin believes that the current court sentence has sufficient deterrent power to prevent the phenomenon of "serving KOL in prison".

However, he emphasized that a good education of national security law is more important than enforcement of national security law. "Enforcement is temporary, and understanding national conditions and understanding of national security law is perpetual."
