At the beginning of politics, he hopes to find possibilities in the system.
Luo Jianxi believes that the election system of the new district council is backward, the proportion of election seats has decreased significantly, the threshold for nominations has been greatly improved, and the only authority of the district council is cut again.
He said that although the political environment will not have a significant change in the foreseeable future, the Democratic Party will not stop trying. He does not want to "lie down" or choose to leave the field before he does not exhaust his efforts.Essence
Luo Jianxi said that under the new system, he will explore the boundaries of the system and the role that can be exerted to try to find a larger space with practice and be responsible to the public. This is the most important value of candidate members.
The Hong Kong Legislative Council passed the district council reform plan in early July.Under this new system, the new district council consists of the appointment of the appointment, the regional committee sectors, the district council local election election, and of course.Candidates must first evaluate whether to support the basic law and loyal to the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region through the Qualification Examination Committee.After being elected, members must also be evaluated by the performance supervision mechanism.
