China News Service, Beijing, July 29th, title: Dai Yaoting's dismissal has nothing to do with academic freedom in Hong Kong
Author Wang Jiexian
The University of Hong Kong Council decided on the 28th to dismiss Dai Yaoting, an associate professor of the Faculty of Law who was sentenced in the illegal "Occupy Central" case. To drive away the "teacher" who knows and violates the law and encourages young people to violate the law, this decision must not be said to punish the evil and promote the good, conform to the people's sentiments, and let the people of Hong Kong see the dawn of education.
I believe that when most people see the words "civil disobedience", "unlawful justice" and other words mentioned by Dai Yaoting, they will not believe that they come from the mouths of legal scholars, and they are more like evil illusions concocted by politicians. flower.
Over the years, Dai Yaoting has abused his status as a "scholar", mobilized illegal "Occupy Central", colluded with external forces to encourage beautification of "Hong Kong independence," MLM among young people, and played a disgraceful role in the "Regulations Controversy". Throwing "Ten Steps to Really Seek Speculation", "Thunder 2.0" and "35+ Project" in an attempt to paralyze the SAR government, seize the SAR governance power, and exchange the welfare of the majority of Hong Kong citizens for the private interests of their small groups.
The more intensified social conflicts in Hong Kong and the worse the political environment, the more room for some people to obtain capital.
Dai Yaoting's deeds are gradually drifting away from academics. He has long since abandoned his role as a "scholar" and has become a spokesperson for the "Hong Kong independence" forces.
Dai Yaoting's dismissal has nothing to do with "academic freedom." Academics should not include "burning jade and stone" and "dark violence", let alone clamor and take the lead in disrupting social order, infringing on citizens, and trampling on the rule of law. It was Dai Yaoting himself who chose to walk on the opposite side of justice, and the dismissal of the University of Hong Kong Committee was beyond reproach. He also had no reason to advertise "academic freedom" to cover up the facts that violated the law and involved crimes.
Observers believe that the use of the sacred campus podium to spread fallacies and the school as a political battlefield, Dai Yaoting and his like continue to consume the Hong Kong education system, is truly desperate.
According to statistics from the Education Department of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government, from June last year to the end of January this year, a total of 171 complaints about teachers who may be involved in professional misconduct were received, most of which involved making hate, curse and other inappropriate remarks.
People cannot help asking whether some "teachers" who spread hatred and violence comply with the professional rules of education, and whether "teachers" who distort facts and lead students' worldview astray are appropriate to stay on the stage?
Justice may be late, but it will never be absent. The future of Hong Kong is of utmost importance. It is the common responsibility of society to protect the original aspirations of education. The re-start of Hong Kong also requires a re-start of education. It is hoped that people in the education sector will guide young students in the right way and return the Hong Kong campus to peace.
