[The Epoch Times, May 11, 2022](The Epoch Times reporter Xu Cuiling reported) Regarding the former Hong Kong Chief Secretary for Administration Li Jiachao’s victory in the election of Hong Kong’s chief executive, Xie Jinhe, chairman of Caixin Media, said that in the past, the special capital was generated through fierce competition. But it is like ordained. Totalitarian rule of the country, elections are just a form, Li Jiachao’s vote rate is as high as 99.16%, which is a product of the totalitarian system, symbolizing the future direction of Hong Kong.
Xie Jinhe pointed out in a Facebook post on the 10th that there is only one candidate for the chief executive of Hong Kong, and the probability of being elected is 100%. This is nothing worth discussing. However, Bai Ding’s cartoon in Hong Kong’s “Electric News” depicts a person holding a sign of 1416, which is the vote of the chief executive-elect Li Jiachao. Bai Ding used a title: I have one heart all the way, as if looking forward to the future of Hong Kong.
He pointed out that in this Hong Kong chief executive election, Li Jiachao won 99.16% of the votes, setting the highest rate of votes for the chief executive of Hong Kong. However, in the past, the special capital was created after fierce competition. This time, it is like an imperial appointment. It is also a product of a totalitarian system and symbolizes the future direction of Hong Kong.
“In a country under totalitarian rule, elections are just a form,” Xie Jinhe said, and the Western world finds it incredible. In 2000, Rwanda in Africa (Rwanda) elected Kagame as president, with 95% of the votes; in 2007, Syria elected Assad (Assad) as president, with 97.66% of the votes. In the 2013 General Secretary and Chairman of the Military Commission in the 18th General Election, Xi Jinping received 2,955 positive votes, setting a new historical record. In the 2018 19th National Congress, all 2,970 votes were in favor, setting a world record.
Xie Jinhe pointed out that the meaning behind Li Jiachao’s 1,416 votes in the election of the chief executive of the Hong Kong SAR is very unusual. Before that, Reporters Without Borders released the “World Press Freedom Index”, Hong Kong dropped from 80 to 148, China ranked 175, and North Korea finally ranked 180.
He said that in 1949, Mao Zedong was elected as the chairman by the people’s deputies. Of the 576 representatives, only Zhang Dongsun, a professor at Yenching University, voted against it. After the election, Mao Zedong expressed a generous belly. However, in 1951, Zhang Dongsun was criticized and died in Qincheng Prison. The tradition begins here. This time, Li Jiachao brought Hong Kong back to China. The next changes in Hong Kong can already be expected.
