Xia Baolong, director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council, said at a seminar last week to reaffirm patriots’ rule over Hong Kong that “anti-China elements” should not be allowed to gain access to Hong Kong’s power, naming One Group founder Lai Chi-ying, legal scholar Tai Yiu-ting and former Hong Kong People’s Liberation Army secretary-general Wong Chi-fung, who are now on trial for different crimes, as “extremely bad” anti-China elements. He also named One Group founder Lai Chi-ying, legal scholar Tai Yiu-ting, and former Hong Kong People’s Liberation Army secretary-general Wong Chi-fung as “extremely bad people” who oppose China and disrupt Hong Kong, saying that not only should they be banned from having access to any public power in Hong Kong, but also their illegal acts should be “severely punished according to law…”
The March issue of Bauhinia magazine published today exclusively released Xia Baolong’s speech at a seminar entitled “Improving the system of ‘one country, two systems’ and implementing the fundamental principle of ‘patriots ruling Hong Kong'” last Monday. In his speech, Xia refuted that some people in Hong Kong are not happy with the idea. In his speech, Xia refuted the argument that some people in Hong Kong can “love Hong Kong but not the country,” describing it as a “strange theory,” stressing that love for Hong Kong and patriotism cannot be separated or opposed, and that “those who claim to love only Hong Kong and not China are certainly not patriots. The person who claims to love Hong Kong and not China is certainly not a patriot.”
He continued, standing against patriots are a small number of “anti-China and disorderly elements”, saying that these people are characterized by “deliberately obstructing and undermining the smooth operation of the SAR regime, deliberately undermining the constitutional order of “one country, two systems” They are a minority of people who are willing to act as the pawns of foreign forces or even openly beg foreign forces to intervene in Hong Kong affairs, attempting to use Hong Kong as a springboard to infiltrate, sabotage and subvert the mainland, thus endangering national sovereignty, security and development interests”.
Xia Baolong said that the “anti-China elements” are the destroyers of “one country, two systems”, and they cannot be allowed to get their hands on the Hong Kong regime. “It is not allowed now, and it will not be allowed in the future. “For the worst anti-China elements, such as Lai Chi-ying, Tai Yiu-ting and Wong Chi-fung, they should not only be allowed to have access to any public power in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, but also be severely punished according to the law for their illegal acts.”
He concluded that the fact that Hong Kong has been reunited with China for more than 20 years proves that a small number of anti-China and rebellious elements will only bring destruction, turmoil and terror to Hong Kong, and that only patriots can truly work for the well-being of Hong Kong people, bring prosperity and stability to Hong Kong and promote the common development of Hong Kong and China.
