"The National People's Congress draft decision on Hong Kong clearly stipulates that the relevant work is aimed at the small group of people who are fighting against Hong Kong and chasing Hong Kong, and it is about protecting the well-being of the people of Hong Kong. 'Dingxin Wan' means that 'one country, two systems' will not change. "
Professor Chen Zuo'er, founding chairman of the National Hong Kong and Macao Research Association and former executive deputy director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council, said in an exclusive interview with China News Service in Beijing on the 23rd.

It is necessary to fill loopholes at the national level
He has been working in Hong Kong for about 30 years, and 77-year-old Chen Zuoer is still very concerned about the situation in Hong Kong after retiring in recent years.
Twenty-three years ago, he witnessed the fall of the British flag and the rise of the five-star red flag at the scene of the handover ceremony of the Hong Kong regime between the Chinese and British governments. "The exciting scene is still fresh in my memory." But in the storm of revisions that took place in June last year, some people ripped the national flag off the flagpole, burned it, trampled it, and even threw it into the sea. "It's really heartbreaking to see these lawless acts."
Chen Zuo'er said that the National People's Congress's draft decision concerning Hong Kong "was awaited for a long time." He said that Wang Chen, the vice chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, made a strong statement when the draft decision explained that more than 5,000 NPC deputies and members of the CPPCC Warm applause, this is also the voice of the 1.4 billion people including Hong Kong compatriots.
Chen Zuoer said that since the establishment of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, it has been a risk port in terms of national security. When people mention Hong Kong, they often think of international financial centers, trade centers, etc., often ignoring Hong Kong or the place where international spies get together. "They gathered here to gather intelligence in an attempt to use Hong Kong as a base for subverting the Chinese regime."
Chen Zuo'er still remembers that during his participation in the Sino-British negotiations in Hong Kong, a person in an important position in a Mainland institution stationed in Hong Kong was later found to be a British spy. "All signs can be seen that foreign and foreign forces are deeply involved in Hong Kong."
Chen Zuoer pointed out that some people in Hong Kong resisted national education and did not decolonize in some important areas, but instead "desinicized" them. Hong Kong is currently facing a severe and complex situation, which has a lot to do with the loopholes in the system of safeguarding national security.
The draft decision promulgated by the National People's Congress this time will go in two steps, authorizing the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress to establish and improve the legal system and enforcement mechanism of the special economic zone to maintain national security at the national level.
Chen Zuoer believes that the National People's Congress and its Standing Committee are very necessary to fill loopholes at the national level, and it is urgent to help the SAR. It is a goal and two levels to complete their constitutional responsibilities and legal obligations in accordance with Article 23 of the Basic Law . "It not only reflects the central government's firm will and determination to safeguard national sovereignty, security and development interests in Hong Kong, but also provides another solid guarantee for maintaining Hong Kong's long-term stability."
Chen Zuoer said that "one country, two systems" is an innovative arrangement, and its theory and practice need to be constantly enriched and developed. The agenda of the NPC's involvement in Hong Kong this time is the adherence to and improvement of the "one country, two systems" policy. In fact, it is to give Hong Kong compatriots another "heart-pill" to show that "one country, two systems" will not change.

Safeguard the well-being of Hong Kong citizens
Chen Zuoer pointed out that the draft decision has made it clear that the relevant legislative tasks of the Standing Committee of the National People ’s Congress are aimed at actions that severely endanger national security, such as splitting the country, subverting the state power, and organizing terrorist activities, as well as activities of foreign and foreign forces interfering in Hong Kong affairs , The setting range is very accurate. "Never let 'Hong Kong independence' elements and anti-China chaotic Hong Kong thugs rampage over Hong Kong again."
"I believe this is in line with the aspirations of the general public in Hong Kong." Chen Zuoer pointed out that if the black storm continues in Hong Kong, not only will it seriously harm Hong Kong residents, but foreign investors and tourists will not be willing to come to Hong Kong. Therefore, safeguarding the country's sovereignty, security, development interests, and punishing Hong Kong elements in accordance with the law is the protection of the well-being, life and property of the general public and the prosperity and stability of Hong Kong.

Foreign powers have no right to intervene
Regarding the National People's Congress's agenda concerning Hong Kong, some politicians in the United States and the West declared that they would make a so-called "strong response."
Chen Zuoer emphasized that foreign interference is not allowed in China's internal affairs. He also pointed out that the US legislation on its national security includes at least more than 20 such as the "Incitement to Rebellion Law", "Espionage Law", "National Security Law" and "Protection of the United States Law". The country with the strictest national security control in the world is the United States.
In the interview, Chen Zuoer also told a story to reporters: The PLA ’s garrison troops in Hong Kong annually donate 400 men and women in Hong Kong to volunteer blood donation. This is the only team that donates blood annually in Hong Kong in the form of a group.
Chen Zuoer was deeply moved by this.
He said: "They are the guards that Hong Kong people can trust." (End)
