When the two Chinese legislatures took the lead in revising Hong Kong‘s electoral system without Hong Kong’s consent, Taiwanese civic groups, students and Hong Kong people in Taiwan gathered in front of the Bank of China, chanting the slogan “Protest against the National People’s Congress of China for stifling Hong Kong’s autonomy! .
Taiwan’s Mainland Affairs Council criticized China’s two chambers of commerce for taking the lead in revising Hong Kong’s electoral system without Hong Kong’s consent, saying that “party lovers rule Hong Kong”. Former President Ma Ying-jeou, on the other hand, said it was a declaration that “one country, two systems” was dead.
The closing ceremony of China’s National People’s Congress passed a decision to “improve the electoral system of Hong Kong,” a revision of the electoral system that concerns four million Hong Kong voters, led by Beijing and passed before being announced, without going through the process of local consultation in Hong Kong.
Ma Ying-jeou: Hong Kong’s “one country, two systems” is dead
In Taiwan, the Land Commission criticized that the Chinese Communist Party‘s proposal of “patriots ruling Hong Kong” is actually the Chinese Communist Party ruling Hong Kong, that is, “party lovers ruling Hong Kong”. The DPP pointed out that the Chinese Communist regime has no intention to fulfill its commitments to Hong Kong people and the international community, and has blatantly ignored these commitments. Such a totalitarian and hegemonic act cannot win the respect of the international community and is not the way a responsible country should behave.
Former President Ma Ying-jeou said in an interview on the 12th: “Since Deng Xiaoping put forward the concept of one country, two systems in 1982, I think this is the formal entry into history of the concept of one country, two systems, in other words, it is the announcement of its death. We feel very sorry.”
Jiang Qichen, chairman of the Kuomintang, called on Beijing to ensure the liberal democratization of Hong Kong in order to gain the hearts and minds of the people of Hong Kong.
Since there is no Chinese Embassy in Taiwan, more than a dozen civic groups, students and Hong Kong people’s organizations in Taiwan gathered in front of the official Chinese Communist Party’s Bank of China, chanting the slogan “Protest against the NPC’s strangulation of Hong Kong’s autonomy!”
Taiwan Civic Front Secretary General Jiang Min proverbially pointed out that whether it is the Hong Kong version of the National Security Law or the current changes in election rules, China is constantly destroying Hong Kong, and China is ending “one country, two systems”.
Taiwan civic groups pointed out that last year, the Hong Kong version of the National Security Law was announced and implemented, and China rapidly tightened the freedom of speech in Hong Kong. Earlier this year, Hong Kong’s National Security Bureau arrested and detained 47 pro-democracy activists. Now the Chinese National People’s Congress has decided to set up a “Candidature Review Committee” in Hong Kong, which means that the eligibility of Hong Kong’s Chief Executive and Legislative Council members will be completely controlled by the Chinese Communist regime.

Xu Shengxiong calls on cross-strait leaders to show wisdom in creating an “economic bubble”
In addition, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang responded to media questions at an international press conference after the conclusion of the National People’s Congress, saying that China’s approach to Taiwan adheres to “one China” and the “1992 Consensus”, and that under this premise, people from all political parties and associations in Taiwan are welcome to open dialogue.
Taiwan’s business leaders, the acting chairman of the SEF Hsu Sheng-hsiung 12 meeting was asked about Li Keqiang’s speech, he said that there are many cross-strait environment and conditions need to exchange, Taiwan businessmen have about 100,000 enterprises in the mainland have considerable investment, Taiwan’s annual exports to mainland China exports accounted for about 43% of the total exports.
Hsu Sheng-hsiung said, “After the Epidemic has come to an end, I think it should be the Time to start to do interaction to save a lot of unnecessary trouble or unnecessary suspicion, which actually does not help cross-strait peace and stability.”
Xu Shengxiong said: “How to generate economic bubbles, to make some breakthroughs, I also think that the governments of both sides of the Taiwan Strait to think, the leaders of both sides of the Taiwan Strait have a very high wisdom, I also hope that we play compassion and empathy, and work together for development, I think this is actually very important for both sides of the Taiwan Strait. If cross-strait relations develop healthily, I think it will provide a very good environment for global and regional security.”

Cross-strait interaction in no particular order
So how should the two sides of the Taiwan Strait begin to interact? Xu Shengxiong believes that the exchange does not necessarily have to start from which angle, which unit, as long as it is conducive to the peaceful and stable development of both sides of the Taiwan Strait can do, there are not too many sequential issues, unless you have to go to sign an agreement, there is no such operation.
The face of China to ban the import of Taiwan pineapples on the grounds of quarantine, the outside world that this enhances cross-strait hostility. Xu Shengxiong said, that is a single event, Taiwan also did the treatment, the problem is not so serious.
In addition, Professor Yan Jianfa of the Department of Business Administration at Jianxing University of Technology pointed out at a symposium held by Vision Foundation on the 12th, this year is the 100th year of the Communist Party, Xi Jinping wants to extend his term next year, and the two sessions are characterized as seeking to maintain stability.

The newest and most popular of these is the “loneliest” of all time.
The company’s main goal is to provide the best possible service to its customers. Xi Jinping has been cutting Deng Xiaoping’s influence.
Yan Jianfa pointed out that Deng Xiaoping was an important figure in the beginning of U.S.-China relations, but Xi Jinping recently criticized the United States for engaging in small circles and bullying the weak, and relayed through local party committees that the future is “rising in the east and falling in the west,” which shows that he has no hope in the United States.
According to Yan, the instability of the external situation facing Xi Jinping is unique to the past few terms: “Since the time of Deng Xiaoping, when China improved relations with the United States, it has been a situation of fighting but not breaking. In the hands of Xi Jinping (the U.S. and China) such a breakup, he must shatter such a Perception, and therefore to combat the Deng Xiaoping line, Yang his own line.”
In addition, Hong Kong is described as the second return, Yan Jianfa said: “The second return means the denial of Deng Xiaoping line, or to ride on Deng’s shoulders and then move forward in the practice. Many people mentioned that these two years may be the most unstable period in the region, I think just the opposite. This year or two is the most stable. Because Xi Jinping wants to consolidate internal power, he has to maintain neighboring relations, and it is obvious that he improves relations with India, Japan, and South Korea, and is very loose with Taiwan, with no new ideas in his speech, and he wants to support internal risks with external stability.”
