ICAC [Hong Kong]

The Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) was formally established in February, 1974, to combat corruption in a three-pronged way of law enforcement, prevention and education. Before its establishment, the Anti-Corruption Department of the Hong Kong Police Force was responsible for related matters. Initially, the investigation object of ICAC was civil servants, and later it was extended to public institutions, including all private institutions. The first important task after the establishment of ICAC is to arrest Peter Peter Godber and return to Hong Kong. 1975 At the beginning of this year, ICAC successfully extradited Peter Peter Godber from Britain to Hong Kong for trial. As a result, Peter Godber was accused of conspiracy to corrupt and accept bribes, and was convicted and sentenced to four years in prison. The Gerber case fully embodies the determination of ICAC to fight corruption and set off a silent revolution in Hong Kong. One Country, Two Systems

One country, two systems is the basic policy of the people of China and the Central People's Government in Hong Kong. Hong Kong has its own regional flag and emblem. At the same time, it has a different social form and economic model from Chinese mainland. Hong Kong issues its own currency and stamps. In international sports competitions, Hong Kong participates in the name of "China Hong Kong".

Universal suffrage for the Chief Executive

On July 6th, 20 14, Leung Chun-ying, Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, submitted the Report on Amending the Method for the Formation of the Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region in 20 17 and the Legislative Council in 20 16 to the NPC Standing Committee (the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress), which marked the first step of the "five steps" in Hong Kong's political development, and also marked Hong Kong's step towards universal suffrage for the Chief Executive in 2005. There is no need to amend the method for forming the Legislative Council in 20 16 in Annex II to the Basic Law. The Chief Executive asked the NPC Standing Committee to make a decision. At the same time, the Chief Executive submitted to the NPC Standing Committee (the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress) a public consultation report on the methods for forming the Chief Executive in 20 17 and the Legislative Council in 20 16, and all its annexes. 2065438+On August 3, 20041,the 10th session of the 12th the National People's Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) closed in the Great Hall of the People. The meeting adopted the NPC Standing Committee's decision on the method of universal suffrage for the Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and the formation of the Legislative Council in 20 170.

China opposes external interference in Hong Kong.

The Foreign Affairs Committee of the National People's Congress of China sent a "strongly worded" letter to the Foreign Affairs Committee of the British House of Commons in early September, 20 14, urging the British side to cancel the investigation and warning that it would disrupt Hong Kong's political reform. The letter sternly pointed out that the British investigation was "interference in China's internal affairs" and "extremely inappropriate", and such an investigation "sent a wrong signal to the outside world", and China "will not tolerate direct or indirect interference from Britain and any other external forces". And warned that such an investigation would have a negative impact on the relations between the two countries. China's ambassador to Britain, Liu Xiaoming, also put pressure on British parliamentarians to abandon the investigation.

201410/China's foreign minister Wang Yi clearly expounded China's position on the Hong Kong incident during his talks with American leaders at the White House and the State Council. Wang Yi emphasized that Hong Kong affairs are entirely China's internal affairs, and external forces have no right to interfere, and all should respect China's sovereignty, which is also the basic norm of international relations. The core of the situation in Hong Kong is that some people deliberately illegally gather in the most prosperous neighborhood, which seriously interferes with social order. No country or society will allow such illegal acts that ignore the legal system and harm the public interest. This is true of cities in the United States, and so is Hongkong in China. We demand that the United States be cautious in its words and deeds, abide by its promise of non-interference in China's internal affairs and not send wrong signals to the outside world. I believe that the Hong Kong SAR Government is fully capable of handling the current situation according to law. regional flag of the hong kong special administrative region of the peoples republic of china
