On 28 October, Fan Xu Lai Tai, a member of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Candidate Qualification Review Committee and former Chairman of the Legislative Council, attended an academic forum at the University of Hong Kong and explained the improvement of the ELECTION system of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and its impact on the future development of Hong Kong.
Fan Xu Li Tai, member of the Eligibility Committee of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and former President of the Legislative Council, gave a speech at the University of Hong Kong.
Fan Xulitai said that after the implementation of the Hong Kong National Security Law, Hong Kong society has entered a new stage from chaos to governance. Improving Hong Kong's electoral system will help the HKSAR Government to govern and implement its vision plan, and will also help Hong Kong's sustained economic recovery and integration into the development of the Greater Bay Area, effectively solving Hong Kong's livelihood problems in housing, employment and other aspects.
The principle of "patriots governing Hong Kong" is the key to improving the election system of the Hong Kong SAR. When talking about the principle of "patriots governing Hong Kong", Fan Xulitai pointed out: "The central government will never sacrifice Hong Kong's interests, because Hong Kong is China's Hong Kong, and Hong Kong people are Chinese. The central authorities will not allow those with dissident intentions to govern Hong Kong, so patriots must govern Hong Kong. ”
The university organizers of the University of Hong Kong presented a gift to Fan Xulitai.
When talking about "one country, two systems", Fan Xulitai stressed: "With the existence of 'one country', 'two systems' is meaningful." Hong Kong is an inseparable part of China, which is the most crucial original intention of the "one country, two systems" policy. The Constitution is the mother law, and with Article 31 of the Constitution, the NPC can fulfill its duties under Article 62, Paragraph 14 of the Constitution and adopt the Hong Kong Basic Law (sub-law) to provide for the operation of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. The Basic Law is an authorization law, which contains powers in the Basic Law that Hong Kong may exercise; if it is not covered or stated to belong to the Central Government, such powers and decisions must be exercised by the Central Government.
