China Hong Kong Issue: While on one hand the people of Hong Kong are shedding their blood for the restoration of democracy and registering a protest against China, on the other hand China is continuously strengthening its hold here. The State Council of China has now appointed Hong Kong’s Security Chief John Lee to the post of Chief Secretary. At the same time, Chris Tang Ping-kyung, who holds the post of Police Commissioner, has been made the new Security Secretary.
According to the report of China’s official newspaper Global Times, this change has been announced on Friday. It said that the Chinese Parliament has made these appointments on the recommendation of Hong Kong’s top leader Carrie Lam. Here from the year 2017, Matthew Cheung Kin-chung was on the post of Chief Secretary, who is stepping down after four years. Lau Siu-kai, vice president of the Chinese Association of Hong Kong and Macao Studies, told that the Chinese government is doing all this for national security in Hong Kong.
Great attempt to suppress democracy
Kai said some departments have failed to cooperate with the police force over the years. Therefore, such steps are being taken here to maintain national security and social stability (China Hong Kong Extradition Bill). He said that this will not affect the permanent elections. Talking about Lee and Tang, both have worked in the police force. In such a situation, it is believed that China is making these changes to suppress democracy in any way. Whatever people raise their voice for democracy should be silenced only then.
Apple Daily Closed Forever
Recently, Hong Kong’s last pro-democracy newspaper Apple Daily has also been closed forever. People working here were put in jail and they were accused of anti-national activities (China Hong Kong Arrests). Many people have been arrested under the national security law implemented by China about a year ago. Lakhs of people demonstrated against this law. But China also suppressed these protests. The UK and the US have issued a statement regarding the closure of Apple Davy and called it sad news for the media.
