China News Service, May 2 (Xinhua) According to the website of the Central Government Liaison Office in Hong Kong, a spokesperson for the Liaison Office of the Central People's Government in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region issued a statement on May 2 and severely condemned the radical activists for launching again during the "May Day" holiday. Illegal gathering, harassing shops and throwing petrol bombs and other illegal activities.
The spokesman pointed out that the epidemic is on the verge, and all parts of the world are putting aside their differences to fight against the epidemic. Only some radicals in Hong Kong are desperate and continue to incite citizens to participate in violent activities, and even threaten to place bombs in public places. If they are allowed to do anything wrong, Hong Kong can still Is there a future? !
The spokesman pointed out that since last year, "violent speculation" can be described as an evil accumulation. The thugs wantonly besieged the government and public institutions, smashed and burned subways, banks, shops, besieged tourists and citizens, attacked police officers, private bombs, and carried out terrorist threats. Hong Kong ’s proud rule of law and freedom were trampled. Thousands of citizens have lost "freedom from fear". Today, when Hong Kong's epidemic prevention and control has just achieved initial results, and the public hasn't taken a breather, the opposition and radical forces are politically self-interested, disregarding people's livelihood, ignoring the law as nothing, and eagerly inciting "black violence" to make society Once again into the memory of panic and pain. What is particularly distressing is that in the months of violent and illegal activities, a group of young people were misled and misled, harming themselves and injuring the family. A considerable number of them are minors under 18 years old, and the youngest is only 11 years old. We noticed that the mob threw a petrol bomb into a police car last night. The suspect arrested on the spot was only 15 years old. We can't help but ask those politicians, when you spoof young people "life with a case is more exciting", where are your children? So, what is the heart and forbearance of sacrificing the good future of a generation as "political fuel"?
The spokesman said that Hong Kong is a small economy with a high degree of freedom and openness. A sound legal system and social peace are the foundations of its standing. Continued "black storms" have caused Hong Kong trauma and internal injuries to accumulate. The international community's confidence in Hong Kong has been severely affected. Authoritative agencies have repeatedly downgraded Hong Kong's credit rating. Hong Kong has lost its position as the world's freest economy for 25 consecutive years. Last year, Hong Kong's GDP even showed negative growth for the first time in 10 years. The latest unemployment rate hit a 10-year high and the consumer confidence index fell to its lowest value since the 2008 financial tsunami. Among the global university influence rankings in 2020, many universities in Hong Kong have dropped significantly, and the University of Hong Kong has dropped from the 10th place last year to 41th place. Transportation, catering, retail, tourism services and other industries are even bleak. The vacant shops in the four core business districts of Tsim Sha Tsui, Mong Kok, Causeway Bay and Central have formed a series of rows. The deserted scene has not been seen for decades. Ocean Park, the business card of Hong Kong, has an annual loss of more than 550 million Hong Kong dollars, and the treasure seafood seafood, which embodies the memories of generations of Hong Kong people, is closed. The "black storm speculation" has brought ordinary people the plight of the cold gray stove, which is the culprit of the growing "closure tide" and "unemployment tide".
The spokesman pointed out that we have seen that some opposition politicians have tried their best to hype up the so-called "yellow economic circle" in order to get more seats in the Legislative Council elections, ignoring the rules of the free market, artificially creating social tears, harassing and destroying innocent merchants by any means Is a "political speculation" of political abduction of the economy. We also saw that the members of the opposition legislature ignored the ethics and conscience of politicians, and the malicious "rab" paralyzed the functions of the parliament, causing a large number of bills related to people's livelihood to be deliberated in time, and millions of taxpayers , Wage earners and disabled people's vital interests are affected. When voting on the second round of the 137.5 billion anti-epidemic fund launched by the SAR Government, none of the opposition MPs voted in favor, and even attempted to delay the adoption of the Budget, including the widespread distribution of 10,000 yuan to the public, so that the public can look forward to it. The long-term 120 billion yuan one-off relief measures are also difficult to implement.
The spokesman emphasized that the opposition has reduced to a bottomless "speculationist." They have engaged in "political speculation" in the Legislative Council, "economic speculation" in the society, instigated "violent speculation" in the streets, and even rendered the so-called "10 steps of real speculation" to push Hong Kong to the bottomless abyss. . These deliberate actions, enemies against the people, and no bottom line are destroying Hong Kong's hopes.
The spokesman said that some opinion polls show that more than 70% of Hong Kong people are opposed to "speculation", and more than 80% of the people "expressed anxiety" about the future. They are worried that the "black storm" will recur after the epidemic has recovered. It can be said that restoring order and getting back on track is the mainstream public opinion in Hong Kong society. We firmly support the Hong Kong SAR Government and the Police Force to severely punish violent criminals in accordance with the law, and take effective measures to maintain the rule of law and public safety in Hong Kong and the national security. We call on all the people who love Hong Kong and take Hong Kong as their home, to bravely unite, resolutely cut off from "violence", say no to "scramble", and never allow the prosperity of generations of Hong Kong people to fight hard.
