Current affairs perspective

On June 8, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government held an online seminar on the 30th Anniversary of the Basic Law.Zhang Xiaoming, deputy director of the Hong Kong and Macau Office of the State Council, attended the seminar and delivered a speech entitled by the national security bottom line to get the same space.

Zhang Xiaoming's speech can see Beijing's thinking and logic of the evolution of Hong Kong policy.He specifically mentioned the article published by Zheng Yongnian on August 20 last year and affirmed the second proposition of Hong Kong's return proposed by Zheng Yongnian.This second return has actually become the most important decision -making basis for Beijing's policy.

Zheng Yongnian almost denied all the attempts and efforts of Hong Kong's first return. Not only did the colonial system fully receive, the most substantial legal system was not within the sovereign structure of China, and Hong Kong's right to govern in Hong Kong was not in the hands of Hong Kong.People ’s governing port has not been realized, and education is also a big failure.The lack of compromise in Hong Kong's political operations leads to violence. The conclusion is that after the return of 1997, Hong Kong only changed from a British direct colony to the indirect colony of the UK.

Except for some text changes and literal articles (even including the Basic Law), when the return of 1997, Hong Kong has not changed anything.After the return, no major changes (especially institutional changes) have occurred to reflect the autonomy of Hong Kong people or Chinese sovereignty.All parties work hard to adhere to the rule of law of Hong Kong.

Who is Hong Kong is the repeated issue of Zheng Yongnian's article.In contrast, Zheng Wen believes that Singapore's experience deserves attention.There are only a few successful experience in Singapore: firmly holding the rule of law in your own hands.Since Singapore's independence, it has never been ambiguous on issues involving sovereignty and major interests of the country, and has always made every effort to protect it, and is not afraid of offended any country.And the challenge to mainland China is: How to return the second return to Hong Kong?

How will Hong Kong realize the second return?It can be summarized for a few points:

First, take the right to issue money.Liang Zhenying had previously publicly warned the British -funded HSBC to make a statement on the issue of the Hong Kong version of the National Security Law; then, HSBC and Standard Chartered on the background of the British -funded consortium all stated.This statement naturally meets Beijing's political needs; but it is unknown whether it reflects a true attitude.

Second, recover aviation rights.Cathay Pacific was publicly accused by Beijing last year, and even adopted forbidden measures. Recently, on the issue of Cathay Pacific and Dragon, China International Airlines and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government have preparations for entry., Worth observing.

Third, reorganize Hong Kong education.College colleges, primary and secondary school teachers, primary and secondary school textbooks, starting from education, including textbooks, will have a series of random follow -up measures.

Fourth, the SAR civil servant team has new political requirements.Nie Dequan's so -called SAR Government civil servants are also the statement of national civil servants. Although it has caused a rebound, this should be a concrete or one of the specific content of the new Hong Kong policy.

The Hong Kong version of the National Security Law is associated with the Basic Law of Comprehensive Implementation. The functional department borrowed Deng Xiaoping's warning about not thinking that Hong Kong has no destructive power, the central government must maintain certain power, and the advice of non -intervention when necessary.The significance of the alarm is also the guidance principle of the second return.

Fifth, after the Hong Kong version of the National Security Law legislation and the establishment of execution agencies, the political viruses such as Hong Kong independence have zero tolerance with other violence activities.Prevention, blowing, and monitoring in this area will only increase without weakening.During the first return period, the problem of design defects, governance, and real return of the top -level system, how to do nothing in the first 22 years of return, and who the responsibility belongs to is not clearly explained.However, the reorganization of the SAR Government, the Hong Kong Sino -coalition Office's personnel have been imminent or have entered the agenda; these are also the focus of the second regression policy research.

From Zhang Xiaoming's speech, we can see the general idea of Beijing's preparation for the second return.

The concept of accepting the second regression actually means that the first return of 22 years of return has encountered major frustration.In this way, does it mean that in the past 22 years, Beijing has handed over a white roll on the Hong Kong issue?There are many problems left, how will it be solved?

Observation indicators in the early stages of return, including:

1. In the next half of the year or a year, Hong Kong foreign companies withdraw their capital, and the number of immigrants from Hong Kong people will vote with their feet;

2. The results of the Legislative Council in September.

3. After the legislation of most Hong Kong people on the Hong Kong version of the National Security Law, the space of one country, two systems will become more and more statement, and even more distrust, doubt, and even sniffing; how to restore public opinion at the minimum acceptance and recognition as soon as possible.

4. The proportion of Hong Kong independence trends is recognized and accepted, and there will be a trend of emotional vent and vain in young people.

Although Zhang Xiaoming and the SAR Government repeatedly emphasized that in the future, all relevant legislation, law enforcement and judicial behavior in Hong Kong will effectively protect the various rights and freedoms enjoyed by Hong Kong residents in accordance with the law.Robin is charged, but in the short term, it may be fully accepted and believed in these promised public opinion investigations indexes may not meet Beijing's requirements.

Zhang Xiaoming's speech confirmed that Beijing's perception of Hong Kong issues is relatively accurate. For example, the main problem in Hong Kong is not economic issues, nor is it troubled in the people's livelihood issues such as housing and employment of grassroots people, or the solidification of the interests of the interests, the difficulty of flowing up the flow of young people, etc.Social problems are political issues.

Since it is a political issue, the core content of the second return in the future is still politics.

After 22 years of return, everything came from scratch.This is not a historical supplementary lesson, this is a reconstruction project in a political sense.

The prejudice has been caused, and the opposite has also been formed. The sense of political alienation of the return generation is obvious. The difficulty of returning for the second time cannot be underestimated.

It is only relying on political high pressure and other absolute measures to achieve the expected results.

It is still necessary to do a more difficult and patience of unity, fighting, and transforming contradictions.Such a united front work has been sparse for the Hong Kong team and participants for a long time.

However, they are even more urgent to realize that the return and political identity of the people who realize the true meaning of Hong Kong have a long way to go.
