[Global Times Special Correspondent Yang Weimin in Hong Kong] With the implementation of the National Security Law and the improvement of the electoral system in Hong Kong, anti-China chaos organizations in Hong Kong have also come to an end.

In early December, news of the liquidation of the Civic Party broke out, and the decline of another opposition party, the Democratic Party, also accelerated.

  According to a report from Hong Kong's "Sing Tao Daily" on the 4th, the Civic Party will hold its annual general election on December 17.

According to the party constitution, all nominations must be submitted 14 days in advance.

Civic Party Chairman Liang Jiajie confirmed that as of the deadline for registration at 12 noon on the 3rd, no valid nominations had been received and a new executive committee could not be formed. Therefore, the Civic Party is expected to start the liquidation process.

Liang Jiajie said that because a new executive committee could not be formed, according to the party constitution, the current executive committee will become a temporary executive committee with a caretaker nature after the annual general meeting, and the power of the executive committee will not be exercised for more than one year.

He previously revealed that the interim executive committee will exercise its powers and announce the convening of an "extraordinary party member meeting" to resolve the liquidation of Civic Party Co., Ltd. and appoint a liquidator to take over its discontinued business.

  As for when the "Extraordinary Party Members Conference" will be held, Liang Jiajie said that it will be held after the Lunar New Year next year at the earliest.

The dissolution resolution needs to be approved by 3/4 of the party members present. Now the Civic Party has more than 300 party members.

When asked how he felt, he bluntly said that he had already expected such a result.

The Civic Party was established on March 19, 2006. It won 32 seats in the 2019 district council election, second only to the Democratic Party among pan-democrats; it won 6 seats in the 2016 Legislative Council election. Currently, there is no Legislative Council or District Council seats.

  The Democratic Party, another major opposition party in Hong Kong, is also having a hard time.

On December 3, the Democratic Party, which was divided and disbanded at any time, held its annual general meeting. It first approved the revision of the minimum number of members of the Central Committee to 10 people, and then elected a new chairman, deputy chairman and Central Committee. As a result, only Luo Jianxi ran for the party chairman. Clean up this mess.

When Luo Jianxi left the venue, reporters kept asking him whether the Democratic Party was dissolved or not.

  Hong Kong media recalled on the 4th that the Democratic Party has gone from moderate to radical in recent years in order to win the attention of opposition supporters.

In 2014, dozens of members of the Democratic Party blatantly participated in the illegal "Occupy Central". During the "revision storm" in 2019, they condoned the "black violence". Lin Zhuoting and others simply became "black violence" elements.

After the implementation of the Hong Kong National Security Law in 2020, the Democratic Party participated in the illegal "35+ primary election" and completely joined forces with the "speculators". In the end, many people were arrested on suspicion of violating the National Security Law, including the then party chairman Hu Zhiwei.

In 2021, some American politicians attacked the reform of Hong Kong's electoral system, and some members of the Democratic Party took the opportunity to spread "the theory that elections are useless."

Some analysts say that the Democratic Party is now torn apart, and many anti-China disruptors in Hong Kong have served their sentences or fled. Among them, Li Yongda and Xu Zhifeng even fled overseas.

At the peak of the party, there were nearly 100 district councilors, but there are only 8 left. The future of the party members is uncertain, and the morale of the party is low. "The Democratic Party is indeed dying."
