Chief Executive Election︱Tian Beichen: Li Jiachao's background has weaknesses, but he lowers his expectations and is more likely to have surprises

The only candidate for the chief executive election, Li Jiachao, recently released his platform.

Tian Beichen, a member of the Legislative Council of the Roundtable on Actual Politics, described on the commercial TV program today (May 1) that Li Jiachao's work style will not lead people to "tour the garden". Expectations for him are more likely to be pleasantly surprised, as "there is no expectation, there is no disappointment".

Di Zhiyuan: Li Jiachao has business, capacity, easy-going and sensibility in private

Tian Beichen pointed out that he knew Li Jiachao when he was the Deputy Secretary of the Security Bureau. Based on his experience, Li Jiachao would not take people on a "garden tour", describing the other party as "you can get it, you can't get it if you don't get it", it is true that he wants to make the other party change his mind. It's not easy, but since he's not an expert in everything, he won't take a stand too quickly. "Any background can be a weakness, but both can be a benefit."

Tian Beichen also raised a real political issue: Many people feel that Li Jiachao's background is very negative, but it may lower the expectations of the outside world, which is good for the future governance environment: "High expectations, there must be disappointments. But many people are on the contrary. I am familiar with the expectations, so I may not be disappointed, but there will be some surprises.” He also pointed out that the current Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor has the opposite situation, and is often described as “good to play”, but the starting point is too high, and the outside world is not interested in it. Her expectations are also high, and the political problems will be even greater when difficulties arise.

Di Zhiyuan, chairman of New Thinking and a member of the Legislative Council in the social welfare sector, described that he has cooperated with Li Jiachao in the past. No doubt, in terms of public image, Li was born in the security system, which makes people feel a little tougher, but thinks that the other party "will be more negotiable in private. ", for example, referring to the opinions of the Legislative Council committees, which he would really consider seriously.

He also described Li Jiachao as "easy-going and emotional. Personally, he is also a good person and will do his duty." He hoped that Li Jiachao would have more contact with the public in the future to jointly solve social problems.

Legislative Council member of the insurance sector and chairman of the Finance Committee, Chen Jianbo, pointed out that Li Jiachao gets along as a "friend" and is very willing to listen to people's opinions; at work, if others have some suggestions, even if they fail to do so, at least they will follow up and will not refuse them outright. , and hope that the other party will hand over the actual results in the future.

Chen Jianbo: Don't have "Line-to-take" in everything, otherwise it will be very disappointing

When asked about the specific political platform, Chen Jianbo believed that the priority should be given to solving the problem of customs clearance. I believe that Li Jiachao also understands the importance of customs clearance. Recently, many employees of foreign companies have left Hong Kong due to strict epidemic prevention measures. Clearing customs with foreign countries, relaxing quarantine requirements, or allowing home quarantine on arrivals in Hong Kong will not only facilitate foreign investment in doing business, but also allow citizens the opportunity to travel.

He was also concerned about how the government could improve the work culture in the future, and pointed out that in the current relationship between the executive and the legislature, there is a phenomenon that is not ideal. There is a "Line-to-take", no matter how you ask, you have to give the same answer, otherwise you will be disappointed by Members.

Tian Beichen pointed out that Li Jiachao was in a dilemma on the issue of customs clearance. On the one hand, he could not be too loose, otherwise he would violate the national policy of "clearing zero", and on the other hand, he had to take into account people's livelihood and economic development.

He also believes that Li Jiachao rarely raises political issues in his political platform, but talks more about youth development and assisting youth employment, which is in line with social expectations, but reminds the other party that they should put forward more specific goals on these issues, including timetables and roadmaps, otherwise "Aim for results" can easily become a slogan.

Tian Beichen also pays attention to the communication between the government's policy bureaus and executive departments. He believes that the heads of the policy bureaus do not have to be "good", but they must communicate effectively with the front lines, otherwise, there will be situations where the positive and negative will be violated.

Di Zhiyuan pointed out that he is disappointed by Li Jiachao's statement that political reform is not a priority of the new government, and believes that the political platform lacks the overall concept and does not mention repairing and tearing, which is not ideal.

He pointed out that if the "improvement of the electoral system" is to be fully matured before political reform is implemented, "it may take 100 years". He believes that the current Legislative Council is "much more normal" and can operate smoothly, reminding that dual universal suffrage is the same as Article 23 legislation. , is the constitutional responsibility of the government.
