Opinion | Ulterior Motives behind Opposition Camp's refusal to recognize HKSAR political system
HK Current

By Athena Kung
In fact, the political system adopted by the HKSAR is executive-led. Under this structure, the executive authorities, legislature and judiciary complement each other, with built-in checks and balances.
In the year of 1840, Hong Kong was occupied by Britain after the Opium War. In accordance with the Sino-British Joint Declaration signed on 19th of December, 1984, the Chinese and British Governments had a hand-over ceremony on 1st of July, 1997, which marked the resumption of sovereignty by China over Hong Kong. Meanwhile, the HKSAR of the PRC was formally established. The Hong Kong Basic Law, which was adopted in April 1990 at the Third Session of the Seventh National People's Congress, formally came into effect. The Basic Law clearly states and defines the specifications as to how the high degree of autonomy as well as the political, economic, cultural and educational systems of the HKSAR to be run.
To comply with the Basic Law, since 1st of July 1997, the Chinese government has been carrying out the basic policies of "One country, Two systems," "administration of Hong Kong by the Hong Kong people" and "a high degree of autonomy" in the HKSAR. Under "One country, Two systems", even though China is a unified country and the mainland practices the socialist system, Hong Kong's previous capitalist system before 1st of July 1997 and way of life has been remaining unchanged for 50 years. To properly implement "administration of Hong Kong by the Hong Kong people", the HKSAR has all along been administering by the Hong Kong people on their own, and the central authorities have never sent officials to the HKSAR to fill any local official posts. To fulfill "a high degree of autonomy", apart from foreign and national defense affairs which should be administered by the central authorities, the HKSAR has fully enjoyed the power to decide all other matters within its autonomous jurisdiction. The central authorities has never interfered in affairs within the scope of autonomy of the HKSAR. All along, the HKSAR government has been making the final decisions on all matters within its autonomous jurisdiction as prescribed in the Basic Law.
Under the political system of the HKSAR, its major organs of power include the Chief Executive, the Government, the Legislative Council and the Court of Final Appeal. The Executive Council assists the Chief Executive in policy-making and advises the Chief Executive on matters relating to the introduction of bills and subsidiary legislation. Being independent agencies, both the Commission Against Corruption and the Audit Commission are directly accountable to the Chief Executive. In accordance with the conditions procedures as prescribed by law, the Chief Executive shall have the power to dismiss the legislative organs whereas the legislative organs shall have the power to impeach the Chief Executive and the administrative organs shall be accountable to the legislative organs. The Chief Executive, administrative and legislative organs shall supervise and cooperate with each other, which is however not the separation of powers as described by the Opposite Camps from time to time.
The Chief Executive of the HKSAR is both the head of the HKSAR and the head of the HKSAR government. His or her dual status enables him or her to have extensive functions and powers. The Chief Executive shall be selected from among residents of the HKSAR by election or through consultations held locally, and be appointed by the Central Government. Thus, the Chief Executive who is appointed by the Chinese Government to manage the HKSAR plays a very superior role in the HKSAR political system.
In short, the Chief Executive is responsible for implementing the Basic Law, signing bills and budgets, promulgating laws, making decisions on government policies and issuing Executive Orders. Article 48 of the Basic Law empowers the Chief Executive a variety of powers and functions:
" Article 48
The Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region shall exercise the following powers and functions:
(1) To lead the government of the Region;
(2)To be responsible for the implementation of this Law and other laws which, in accordance with this Law, apply in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region;
(3)To sign bills passed by the Legislative Council and to promulgate laws;
To sign budgets passed by the Legislative Council and report the budgets and final accounts to the Central People's Government for the record;
(4)To decide on government policies and to issue executive orders;
(5)To nominate and to report to the Central People's Government for appointment the following principal officials: Secretaries and Deputy Secretaries of Departments, Directors of Bureaux, Commissioner Against Corruption, Director of Audit, Commissioner of Police, Director of Immigration and Commissioner of Customs and Excise; and to recommend to the Central People's Government the removal of the above-mentioned officials;
(6)To appoint or remove judges of the courts at all levels in accordance with legal procedures;
(7)To appoint or remove holders of public office in accordance with legal procedures;
(8)To implement the directives issued by the Central People's Government in respect of the relevant matters provided for in this Law;
(9)To conduct, on behalf of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, external affairs and other affairs as authorized by the Central Authorities;
(10) To approve the introduction of motions regarding revenues or expenditure to the Legislative Council;
(11)To decide, in the light of security and vital public interests, whether government officials or other personnel in charge of government affairs should testify or give evidence before the Legislative Council or its committees;
(12)To pardon persons convicted of criminal offences or commute their penalties; and
(13)To handle petitions and complaints.
Indeed, the judicial independence plays a vital role to ensure that the acts and policies of the executive and the legislature fully comply with the Basic Law whereas all fundamental rights and freedoms to be enjoyed by all Hong Kong citizens in accordance with the law can be completely safeguarded. However, from the point of view of separation of powers, the relationship between the executive, legislature and judiciary in the HKSAR should be one of mutual-supervision, checks and balances. It is purely a kind of division of work.
The Opposition Camps has been keeping on refusing to recognize the executive leadership role played by the Chief Executive in accordance with the Basic Law. On the other hand, they intentionally and wrongly deny the executive-led political system adopted in the HKSAR so as to weaken the powers, functions and authorities of the Chief Executive. At the same time, they have been trying their best to expand the powers of the Legislative Council. Clearly, the Opposition Camp aims at making a change in the political system of the HKSAR, namely from executive-led to legislative-led in the hope of controlling the whole HKSAR Government once they can obtain more than 35 seats in the Legislative Council Election. Such step is a common strategy adopted in “Colour Revolutions” instigated by the U.S. Government. In reality, the Opposition Camp has been keeping on spreading rumors to provoke the public's hatred towards the Chief Executive so as to crack down the prestige of the executive-led system in the HKSAR and achieve its ultimate goal of Hong Kong Independence.

唉~ 接下來幾個禮拜,只能像是籠中鳥兒看著天空🕊️😢
好啦!其實沒那麼慘🙈 雖然墨爾本進入最嚴重的災難狀態,實施宵禁,強制戴口罩等⚠️ 但民眾還是可以每天出去一個小時運動,只是不能離家圓周五公里遠🏃
不過我從沒想到一個家庭只能派一個人出去買菜對我來說是打擊多麼大的事🙀 接下來就是一個抱怨+自我檢討的文字😬
首先,煮飯的人是 York,所以他必須買食材🌽 我則負責看當週有什麼特價、家裡用品缺什麼,再依照單位價格以及熱量等決定要買什麼😬 可以說逛超市是我旅遊世界各地的樂趣😝
事情發生於實行禁令下午,York下班後趕緊到附近的超市買菜🍆 買了一個禮拜份的簡單食材,買了他喜歡吃的橘子,卻沒買我愛吃的蘋果🍎🍊
問他為什麼?他說因為買太重了。結果我看了一下購物袋,他居然買了三公升的牛奶!!!重點是家裡只有他愛喝牛奶🥛
當下我氣炸了!覺得如果我不一起去購物,那麼他都不會想到我愛吃什麼東西? 又或是可以把他一公升的牛奶放回去,買一公斤我的蘋果也好😠
直到今天看到我朋友在 IG 轉發的文章,突然讓我釋懷。英文大意大概是這樣⤵️
「我們從三月份開始就因為疫情關係在緊繃狀態。一開始封城的時候,大家都嘗試利用這獨處的時間進修、運動、讓自己變更好💪
可是連續五個月都在緊繃狀態,我們無法進行平常讓頭腦放鬆的活動。例如見朋友、去餐廳吃飯、踏青⛰️ 久而久之,原本的動力就會消耗而盡...😔 什麼事情都提不起勁、每天昏昏沉沉、脾氣開始變成暴躁、沮喪💔
這些都是正常的。畢竟我們生活模式因為疫情的關係改變了許多。在路上見到行人會下意識閃躲,下班後必須直接回家,那裡也都不能去🙅
每天能夠安全度過就已經很棒了。畢竟人們需要在滿足生理需求後,才可以追求額外的事物,例如創造力等🖌️ 所以不要對自己太自責,也不要覺得自己沒用、在浪費生命❤️ 記得這不是你的問題,而是疫情的關係。」
有時候一段文字真的可以拯救一個人的心態啊~ 難怪那麼多人愛讀心靈雞湯😹 希望這段話也可以送給那些因為疫情影響的朋友們❤️
說真的這波封城比第一波封城還要困難☹️ 主要是因為全世界基本上都重新開放了,看著大家遊玩的照片而我們只能卡在家裡(之前至少還可以爬山)確實令人沮喪😔 不過還是要好好珍惜自己所擁有的,不要讓負面情緒掌控🙏
Ps. 最近 York 又重新開始跑步,卻碰到第二波封城的關係他就不出去跑了🏃 因為直到前天,原來那些確診的人除了在家自我隔離,居然還可以出去運動😱
而且運動的時候不需要戴口罩,因為政府覺得這樣無法跑步及騎腳踏車等🚲 實在有夠扯!難怪墨爾本人數一直上升📈 所以現在也不太想要出去走路了... 🙁
Pss. 我的 IG 只剩幾個人就可以破七千了!雖然離一萬還是很遙遠😭 希望大家可以多多支持啊~ www.instagram.com/travelwithwinny 🙉
For the next few weeks, we will be like birds in a cage looking out into the sky 🕊️😢
Okay! Maybe not that bad but considering Melbourne is in a "state of disaster" and we are only allowed 5KM radius from home, it's quite similar to being caged up 🙉
I never thought not able to go food shopping together has so much impact on me😕 Under the new restriction, only one person per household can go out food shopping🌽
York has to be the person doing shopping cz he's the one cooking🍳 Yet I am the one who buys other household items and see what's on special etc😬
So for York going out to shop by himself, it will turn out like the day after the restriction was announced, where he quickly went food shopping after work in case everything gets sold out👀
He bought his favourite oranges and not my apples🍊🍎 I asked why? He said cz he's already bought too much. So I looked into the grocery bag and saw him bought 3 liters of milk!!!
If he only have bought 2 liters of milk and 1 kilo of my apple (cz that's the only fruit I LOVE) then I'd be ok🙄 But no!!! 3 liters of milk for the week when I don't even drink milk just makes me think he doesn't consider about me😠
Then I read this post by @thepsychologysisters, which made me felt better and decided to forgive😌 It pretty much summed up like this⤵️
"Just remember that we've been stuck in a fight or flight mode since March. It's ok if you haven't been as productive as you would have liked, learnt a new skill, exercised everyday etc💪
We're suffering a collective stress response, it's admirable if we're able to even just make it through the day.
Our work, home and social environment has changed, we've had to adopt to a new and unfamiliar way of living👀
We had to cancel events that normally give our brain a break and provoke a sense of fun, normality, social cohesion and relaxation.
When we're in constant fight or flight, we begin to burn out. Our brain is stuck in survival mode, meaning we're less able to regulate our emotions and think normally🙁 It makes sense we're exhausted, burnt out and lacking any motivation at the moment.
We've been hit with 5 months of adrenaline, norepinephrine and stress hormones which can have devastating impacts on our emotional regulation, psychological and physical wellbeing💔
So if you're feeling tired, constantly sad, frustrated for no reason, ruminating on what could have been for 2020, please know that you are not alone, this is completely normal emotional reaction to Covid-19💕"
So ya, because of this post, it made decided to try not to forget how lucky we are still have a home🏠 Try not to let negativity take over and still try to be grateful 🙏
Ps. It still sucks seeing everyone traveling around the globe cz their government thinks economy is more important than health...😅

Saved by Grace, Rewarded for Good Works
“for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, that no one would boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them.” (Ephesians 2:8-10 WEB)
It is without debate that we are saved by Grace and that salvation is a gift. When we place our faith in Jesus as Lord, we are born-again, re-created in Christ Jesus.
Our good works have no part in our salvation. You can’t earn your righteousness because that would require you to be perfect and sinless.
However, now that you are saved, the purpose of the rest of your mortal life on earth is to do good works out of love.
God has prepared many such opportunities for you because He partners with His church to save as many people as possible from Hell and the effects of Death.
Of course, you can choose not to do any good works for King Jesus at all and you’ll still remain saved.
But when you choose to serve Him with the time, gifts and resources which He first gave to you, He will surely recompense you for it.
He wants to richly reward you for using the grace that has been given to you!
“Let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good works,” (Hebrews 10:24 WEB)
So, do prayerfully consider how you can love others and share the Gospel of Jesus Christ in the way that best suits the Grace you have received!
For example, I believe that I’m serving Jesus through the writing and teaching graces I’ve received, and I’m straightforwardly encouraging you to find ways to love others and do good works.
Perhaps you have been gifted with a beautiful singing voice. Sing songs that glorify Jesus and edify the body of Christ.
Or maybe you have the grace of making lots of money. Be a generous giver: fund the furtherance of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and help those who are in need—especially widows and orphans who are of the Christian faith.
“Having gifts differing according to the grace that was given to us, if prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of our faith; or service, let us give ourselves to service; or he who teaches, to his teaching; or he who exhorts, to his exhorting: he who gives, let him do it with liberality; he who rules, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.” (Romans 12:6-8 WEB)
Whatever grace you have received, use it to serve Jesus in love, and He will surely reward you generously when we all stand before His throne!
Want to learn more about the different types of heavenly rewards and how to maximize them, and how to identify and step into your God-given calling? I encourage you to read my book “Sandcastles Don’t Last Forever”.

Lead. Fight. Win.
Gain resources, build your own army to lead it into a battle!
Create your own strategy, survive in difficult conditions and then break through enemy's close formation to ruin their castles and reach the sole leadership on the map.
Do not forget about tactics when the fight is on! Good location and right formation will bring you an important victory, which immediately translates into an advantage for the whole war.
Catch your enemies by surprise, until they take a position and build a shield wall, provoke them to mess up the ranks, surround them and destroy completely! Catch up with those who run away and kill them all, because if you do not, they will return back with a sword in a hand!
Alternatively you can use your archers as your main power. While your strong infantry hold back the onslaught in a narrow passageway, a hail of arrows will turn the enemy hordes into heaps of corpses.
Duco. Pugno. Vinco.

There was an exhibit recently in Tokyo, Japan, called 'The World of Thigh Shots''. It featured just shots of Japanese women's thighs, otherwise known as the zettai ryouiki ('absolute area'). More specifically the section of thigh between a girl's skirt and knee socks, a common sight in Japan!
This exhibition explored the artistic side of fetishism and was by the Japanese artist, Yuria (a female, not a creepy guy!).
Yuria wasn't the only artist to dabble in fetishism as of late. There's also an artist who specialises in underwater knee socks photography (Japanese women wearing knee socks underwater) and hikaru skirt photography (women wearing a skirt that lights up the aforementioned zettai ryōiki area).
Opinions differ as to whether it's artistic or erotic. You be the judge!
Yuria's photos from her exhibit are towards the end of the video.
I think if you grew up in Japan and you're familiar with the imagery of life in Japan, this is meant to provoke that nostalgic feeling.
Thanks for watching! And if you enjoyed this video, don't forget to LIKE, SHARE & SUBSCRIBE ^^
