  Li Jiachao wrote in the article: The Fourth Session of the 13th National People’s Congress is reviewing the “Decision of the National People’s Congress on Improving the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region’s Electoral System (Draft)” (draft decision) to improve the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region’s electoral system and implement the “Patriot "Governing Hong Kong" is an important measure to put an end to chaos, support the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region to govern in accordance with the law, and protect the well-being of more than seven million Hong Kong residents.

As the official responsible for the security policy of the SAR government, I fully support the central government's decision to improve the electoral system this time.

  Looking back on the past few years, especially since the social turmoil in 2019, the Legislative Council has been chaotic frequently, beyond rational discussions, and even intended to paralyze the operation of the Legislative Council and obstruct the SAR government’s administration according to law. The relevant scenes are still vivid: there are former Legislative Council members. It obstructs the members of the Legislative Council from performing their duties at every turn, prevents the Legislative Council from functioning and prevents the passage of the bill; participates in illegal assemblies and publicly supports violence, which is commensurate with the "brotherhood" of the mob; ignores the interests of the public, begs and colludes with foreign countries to interfere in the affairs of the SAR and impose sanctions on Hong Kong; In this way, the subversive forces are linked to "solicit speculation" in Hong Kong and coerce the Central People's Government and the SAR government.

These chaos want Hong Kong to jump off the cliff with them and push the people of Hong Kong into the abyss.

  These chaos clearly prove that there are obvious loopholes and shortcomings in the existing electoral system of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, which can even allow traitors to enter the constitutional powers. This not only undermines the stability of Hong Kong society, but also seriously damages the constitutional order of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. National sovereignty, security, and development interests must take effective measures to prevent and stop them.

Although Hong Kong has gradually returned to stability after the implementation of the Hong Kong National Security Law, loopholes and deficiencies in the electoral system continue to exist, posing direct concerns to Hong Kong's social stability and national security.

This problem must be completely resolved to ensure the stability and long-term development of "One Country, Two Systems" and the long-term stability of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.

  The article also stated that "patriots ruling Hong Kong" is a matter of course. It is natural to ask what country will accept the rule of traitors and be governed by people who split the country, subvert national sovereignty, or require foreign interference in internal affairs and harm the interests of the country and citizens?

  Only by optimizing the SAR electoral system and ensuring that "Hong Kong people ruling Hong Kong" with patriots as the main body can ensure that the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region is governed by law and effective governance, and that the practice of "One Country, Two Systems" in Hong Kong can proceed in the right direction. Only then can Hong Kong maintain long-term prosperity and stability. , Hong Kong's various deep-seated problems are expected to be truly resolved. The Security Bureau will cooperate fully and continue to be fearless and fulfill its mission of safeguarding the fundamental interests of the country and the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong.
