The spokesman in the Chinese Embassy here has stated that improving the electoral system of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region is a bold step to uphold and improve the system and institutions there.
In a press note issued by the Embassy spokesman, it is stated that the fourth session of the 13th National People’s Congress has voted to adopt the decision of the National People’s Congress on improving the electoral system of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. This is a major step to uphold and improve the system and institutions of One Country, Two Systems and safeguard enduring stability and security in Hong Kong. It will provide a stronger systemic guarantee for the full implementation of “patriots administering Hong Kong”.
Since Hong Kong’s return to the mainland, the central government has been leading and advancing the development of Hong Kong’s democratic system. As the highest body of state power, the National People’s Congress made the decision on improving Hong Kong SAR’s electoral system, power and responsibility enshrined in the Constitution and the Basic Law. It will better uphold the overall and fundamental interests of the Hong Kong society, contribute to the constant progress of Hong Kong’s democratic system and the steady practice of One Country, Two Systems, the spokesman said.
“Hong Kong is a part of China and Hong Kong-related issues are China’s internal affairs where there’s no place for other countries to interfere. China appreciates Nepal’s commitment to the One China Policy. We are firmly confident that Hong Kong will enjoy a brighter future under One Country, Two Systems, and bring more opportunities for cooperation to the international community including Nepal”, the spokesman has stated.
