Political Storm in Hong Kong

The so-called Pro-Democracy Movement (PDM) in Hong Kong was rather a Pro-Destruction Movement (PDM).

Hong Kong had been a British Crown Colony for 156 years. It was a fact that during the whole 156 year British colonial rule, there was no democracy. The Governor was always a British official sent by Britain to govern the Chinese in Hong Kong. Senior officials were also hired by appointment. Government leaders were not elected. 

Since the handover back to Chinese rule in 1997, there was more democracy in Hong Kong under a One Country Two Systems model of governance.  From a British Crown Colony, it has become a Special Administrative Region (SAR) of the People's Republic of China (PRC). The separatists, backed by the anti-China forces led by the United States of America, tried to change the One Country Two Systems into Two Countries Two Systems. It goes without saying that the PRC would not allow this to happen. An independent Hong Kong? No way!   

The post of Chief Executive of Hong Kong after the handover in 1997 is an important political position, not a civil service administrator's position. Chief Executive Carrie Lam is not a mediocre leader. She has rich experience working as a senior civil servant, but in the early years of her tenure, she lacked political skills and experience. To be a political leader, one must not only have the ability to manage public affairs, but also have political wisdom. It is not easy to use power properly and timingly to deal with upper, lower, internal and external forces.

The black riots broke out in 2019 were not ordinary riots. They were political riots. It was a color revolution. It was indeed not easy to be the Chief Executive of Hong Kong in such an environment. Without the National Security Law, how could it be effective in stopping the violence and controlling the chaos? Hong Kong was almost destroyed by the 'Anti-China and mess-up-Hong Kong' forces. Indeed, it was the National Security Law that helped save the city.

Hong Kong's anti-China yellow-rioters and black-terror activists blindly worship Uncle Sam. They don't know what American-styled democracy really is. American-styled democracy is not one person one vote; it is rather one dollar 

one vote. It is a big game of money and power. Politicians do not work for the welfare of the whole country and the common people, but for their own self-interests. They serve the rich and powerful donors. They work for the Deep State of America. American Democracy is a Plutocracy. It is the Oligarch's game. 

Hong Kong is a very unique place. No matter from what angle one looks at it, no matter what one's ideal, fantasy or wishful thinking is for independence, it cannot change the reality of Hong Kong. What reality? It is the fact that Hong Kong is part of China, and the British colonial rule of Hong Kong has become history.

National Security Law

Since the National Security Law came into effect, Hong Kong is no longer a freewheeling spy center of the world. Domestic and foreign anti-China forces in HK can no longer 'freely' operate and make troubles and chaos to separate HK from China. __________________________________________________ The year-long US led political riots and color revolution against China almost destroyed HK. The 'One Country Two Systems' has survived, but the wishful thinking to turn China and HK into 'Two Countries Two Systems' has failed. __________________________________________________ Hong Kong is an inseparable part of China. It was all anti-China political BS to deny this fact. It was futile trying to make HK independent. It would and did fail. __________________________________________________ Cancellation or suspension of extradition agreements by some countries with HK is not surprising. Nor is it surprising that the National Security Law came into effect. Certainly the anti-China separatists and foreign spies don't like it, but there are millions of Hongkongers who cheered and celebrated that the Chinese Government has finally come to their rescue. They have had enough of the violent, destructive and terrifying riots. Law and order are being restored. They now feel safe to wave the China flag and sing China's national anthem without fear of being beaten up by the anti-China thugs and separatists. __________________________________________________ Beware that the National Security Law has taken away one's 'freedom' to commit serious crimes of secession, sedition, terrorism, and collusion with external powers to endanger the security of HK, China. Freedom is not absolute and unlimited. It doesn't include the 'freedom' to commit a crime without paying for the consequence. __________________________________________________ All countries have national security laws. The US has more than 20 such legislations. Yet China may not pass a national security law to protect the sovereignty and security of China including HK which is part of China? Why only talk about some 20 plus Western countries against this National Security Law but ignore some 50 plus countries at UN which support it? What right do foreign countries have to tell a country, in this case China, not to pass a national security law to protect itself? Can I tell you to leave your doors wide open to 'freely' let the strangers, thieves, burglars, spies and criminals of all kinds come into your home? Peace! __________________________________________________ Edi Lee for Peace *** Fast Edi Thoughts and Comments

Hong Kong Question (2): What does Free Hong Kong mean?

Regarding 'Free Hong Kong', when the word Free is used as an adjective, it means one thing. It means Hong Kong is one of the freest places on earth, even freer than USA, the so-called land of the free. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the word Free is used as a verb, it means something else. It is part of a political slogan used by the anti-China separatists in Hong Kong. They wave independent flags and banners shouting 'Free Hong Kong, Revolution of our Time'. In essence, it has little to do with the abundant freedom which Hong Kong already has. The Pro-Democracy Movement (PDM) is rather a US-backed color revolution, a Pro-Destruction Madness (PDM) to bring down the HK Government and even the Chinese Communist Party.The separatists want to seize power and free Hong Kong from China, which is nothing but a political pipedream. Hong Kong is an inseparable part of China, a Special Administrative Region (SAR) with a very high degree of autonomy. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Some separatists say that they just want China to leave Hong Kong alone. They complain that China is turning the promise of 'One Country Two Systems' into 'One Country One System'. This is far from the truth. While keeping the promise of 'One Country Two Systems', China does not and shall not allow it to become 'Two Countries Two Systems'. Hong Kong may keep its own system, but it may not turn the one country China or the two systems into two countries. China has given Hong Kong a very high degree of autonomy, but the separatists want a 100% autonomy, which is independence. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ The separatists led by the so-called freedom fighters or democracy activists include the opposition party politicians and people from different walks of lives. These separatist leaders have direct link to the highest level of the US Government. They include Jimmy Lai, Martin Lee, Anson Chan, Joshua Wong and others. They are pro-democracy American heroes, but to the normal Hongkongers, they are nothing but useful idiots of Uncle Sam and despicable traitors to their own country China. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Do all Hongkongers support the separation of Hong Kong from China? No. The recent China’s National Security Law put forward by the National People’s Congress has received the signed support of almost 3 million Hongkongers. They cheered and celebrated. They’ve had enough of the non-stop violent riots and PDM which started in June last year. They are fed up with the separatists’ Larm Chow (see HK Question (1) for its meaning). 'Free Hong Kong' continues to be free. But no to treason, secession, subversion, sedition, terrorism and foreign interference! Goodbye traitors, separatists, foreign spies, terrorists, rioters, revolutionists, thugs and criminals! Please leave Hong Kong or run the risk of being captured and sent to trial, and if found guilty, to jail. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Edi Lee for Peace *** Fast Edi Thoughts and Comments
