Hong Kong‘s leftist trade union leader Wu Qiubei wrote an article, borrowing Marx’s doctrine to criticize the petty bourgeoisie in Hong Kong, which aroused the discontent of the legislators who are members of the pro-establishment camp.
After Vice Premier Han Zheng, who is in charge of Hong Kong and Macau affairs, demanded that Hong Kong’s housing problem be solved, Hong Kong then experienced unrest, with the arrest of Wang Guangrong, the “king of village houses”, who was accused of “siding”, and the FTU also opened fire on property developers. The real estate developers Legislative Council member Shi Liqian believes that as long as they do a good job, for the good of Hong Kong will not be afraid of being attacked by public opinion, refuted Wu Qiubei said that the housing problem is not from the real estate developers, the whole community should work together to solve, “if the fruit is only for a small group of people, with the Cultural Revolution is no different!
The FTU’s Wu Qubei recently published a newspaper article titled “A House with Ten Million Rooms! –Third of the Discourses of the Labor Movement in the New Era’, citing Marx’s “Where property is divided up, it can only be or return to a more ugly form of monopoly”, criticizing the government for allowing the “property hegemony” to suppress the supply of housing in order to He criticized the government for allowing the “real estate hegemony” to suppress residential supply so that they can continue to “suck the blood”, and for delegating the use, development, and revenue of land to real estate developers, who operate in the market solely according to their own interests, resulting in the production value of land for a very small number of people, which is suspected of dereliction of duty. Wu suggested that the government initiate the Land Resumption Ordinance, levy the Nature Conservation Tax, etc. to “break the law of capital and use the land for the people!”
In response to Wu Qiubei’s accusation of real estate developers as “real estate hegemony,” Shek Lai-him said in an inquiry by Apple that he had read the article, but did not agree with its statement, saying that the housing supply problem in Hong Kong has a long history, not a handful of people formed by real estate developers, and criticized Wu Qiubei only represents a part of the grassroots views, rather than for the interests of all Hong Kong people. Shek believes that the housing problem must be solved by the joint efforts of the whole community, and a single accusation of real estate developers is only the “Cultural Revolution” type of criticism, can not solve the problem.
For the central government to solve the housing problem, Shek pointed out that the sector has been working hard for the development of Hong Kong, as long as they do a good job, for the good of Hong Kong will not be afraid of being attacked by public opinion.
