Gu Ailing nationality issue, look at China's bill you will not have doubts.
On the issue of Gu Ailing's nationality, the recent hype has been boiling over and this time all the focus has focused on Gu Ailing's nationality:
And fox news in the United States reported on Gu Ailing
Will Kane said: "Gu Ailing was ungrateful and betrayed the United States that not only raised her, but also turned her into a world-class skier, and only the United States can provide training and facilities." And she turned her back on the United States in order to make money, and she was shameful. ”
And now there are many people who ask," what is your current nationality?" Are you still American? "Do you live more in China or in the United States?" "How do you balance life between two countries?"
First, let's take a look at what our Nationality Law of the People's Republic of China says, and you will understand Gu Ailing's nationality issue.
The Act has not been amended since its promulgation and implementation on September 10, 1980.
Article 9 of the Law stipulates: "Chinese citizens who domicil a foreign country voluntarily join or acquire foreign nationality shall automatically lose their Chinese nationality." This provision raises a number of questions:
According to this article, China's determination of the nationality of Chinese citizens is subordinate to the laws of foreign countries, which is equivalent to placing the laws of other countries above Chinese laws, which is detrimental to national dignity and inconsistent with the status of a major country on the mainland.
According to this Article, Chinese citizens who acquire foreign nationality will be completely exempt from Chinese law abroad, and will enjoy consular protection abroad in China. This will provide an excuse for foreign forces to interfere in China's internal affairs, which is not conducive to safeguarding the national security of the mainland.
3. The article undermines national cohesion. Many people obtain foreign status out of real-life considerations. If they can maintain Chinese nationality after obtaining foreign nationality, overseas Chinese are more likely to maintain emotional bonds and sense of identity with China, and can continue it to future generations. Most countries do not require immigrants to renounce their original nationality or allegiance when allowing them to naturalize, so retaining Chinese nationality also allows overseas immigrants to justify their claims when fighting for china's interests.
4. Under this clause, Chinese citizens who automatically lose their Chinese nationality after acquiring foreign nationality need to apply for a Chinese visa for returning home, and they need to renew their visa regularly for long-term residence. These procedures have caused great inconvenience to overseas Chinese returning to China and staying for a long time.
After the reform and opening up, a large number of young people in China have studied abroad and lived and worked abroad for a long time, and many of them have achieved success in learning and have rich practical work experience. However, many of these people have acquired foreign nationality and lost their Chinese nationality, so they cannot easily return to china. Even if the workers who return to China are mostly migratory birds, there are few long-term plans to really settle their homes in China. In addition, those who have the right of abode in a foreign country but have not acquired foreign nationality may lose their right of abode if they live in China for a long time and are therefore concerned about returning to work.
Let's look at Gu Ailing's answer: "I spend nearly 30% of my time in China every year, you see, my Chinese is also very slippery, my mother is from Beijing, my grandmother is also in Beijing." In fact, I can see my home in Beijing at the top of the big jumping platform. I especially like Chinese food, I like the dishes made by my grandmother, and I like the Chinese food in the Winter Olympic Village. After a pause, Gu Ailing continued: "I will be very comfortable when I am in the United States and China. I think that sport must be used to unite human beings, not to divide us. ”
I'm not trying to make everyone happy... I know that my heart is good, and I also know that the decisions I make are based on the interests of all people, and I feel that this will bring greater benefits. If someone doesn't believe that this is what I meant, then it just means that they don't have enough empathy to understand the kindness of others, probably because they have different values than me. If someone doesn't believe me or doesn't like me, then it's their loss. They can't be Olympic champions.
"The place of birth cannot be chosen, but the path of life can be chosen by yourself, support Gu Ailing, Chinese the people love you, and Chinese people will always support!"
