China News Service, Hong Kong, July 18th. Several groups and individuals in Hong Kong issued a statement on the 18th, strongly condemning the US's unreasonable and arbitrary interference in Hong Kong affairs, unprovoked discrediting of Hong Kong's business environment, and so-called "sanctions" against officials of the Liaison Office in Hong Kong. Emphasizing bad news about Hong Kong is futile.
The Hong Kong Restart Alliance pointed out in its statement that the central government agencies and personnel in Hong Kong have made great contributions to the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong society, safeguarding the implementation of "One Country, Two Systems" and Hong Kong's Basic Law in Hong Kong, as well as stability and long-term development.
Since Hong Kong’s National Security Law was promulgated and implemented last year, Hong Kong society has gradually returned to normal, and citizens’ lives and property have been effectively protected. This has laid a solid foundation for the stability of Hong Kong’s economy and the rule of law, improved the investment environment, and consolidated Hong Kong’s finances. The position of the center.
However, the US government disregarded the facts and wantonly smeared the status quo of Hong Kong. This behavior will inevitably be condemned and spurned by the 1.4 billion Chinese people, including Hong Kong compatriots.
The Chinese General Chamber of Commerce of Hong Kong (CCC) stated that the United States warned in its recommendation report that US companies "will face risks in their operations and activities in Hong Kong after the implementation of the Hong Kong National Security Law." This is by no means a fact.
ACCCIM believes that the US government does not understand the current business environment in Hong Kong and has made untrue statements purely out of political considerations.
ACCCIM stated that since the implementation of the Hong Kong National Security Law for one year, Hong Kong society has gone from chaos and governance and restored peace, creating a favorable business environment for the business community.
In the past year, Hong Kong’s National Security Act has never taken enforcement actions against law-abiding business people. On the contrary, Hong Kong’s business community generally needs and welcomes relevant laws to create a peaceful and stable business environment for Hong Kong.
At the same time, the ACCCIM expressed indignation at the so-called "sanctions" of the Liaison Office officials by the US government and the so-called "sanctions" against Hong Kong and Mainland officials in the past, believing that relevant officials are fulfilling and defending national security and safeguarding Hong Kong's prosperity and stability.
Tan Yaozong, a member of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, pointed out that the relevant actions of the United States have seriously interfered in China's internal affairs and are a gross violation of the norms of international exchanges. He strongly condemned this hegemonic act.
Tan Yaozong also mentioned that the staff of the Liaison Office of the Hong Kong Central Committee have been dedicated to their duties and support the SAR government in governing in accordance with the law. They have promoted the social, economic and people’s livelihood development of Hong Kong and promoted exchanges between the two places, promoted the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong society, and safeguarded the principle of "one country, two systems". The implementation of the Hong Kong Basic Law in Hong Kong has made contributions that are obvious to all.
Tan Yaozong also said that since the implementation of the Hong Kong National Security Law, Hong Kong society has restored stability and the country's sovereignty and security have been further safeguarded. The US government completely ignored these facts and created an atmosphere of panic in the international arena in an attempt to influence investors' intention to invest in Hong Kong. Facts have proved that bad-mouthing Hong Kong is futile. (Finish)
