Hong Konger Front
Hong Konger Front ( zh, t=我是香港人連線, l=I am a Hongkonger Connection) is a bilingual website founded in 2004 to advocate Hong Kong's gaining independence from China and building the Republic of Hong Kong. The website was covered by media conveying condemnation from both China and Hong Kong's pro-Beijing politicians. In the beginning, its call for Hong Kong independence was not echoed by Hong Kong's localist groups, not to mention moderate democrats who preferred waiting for One country, two systems and universal suffrage, both promised by Beijing years before the 1997 Handover of Hong Kong and enshrined in the Basic Law (constitution) of Hong Kong. Unlike the other Hong Kong pro-independence groups, Hong Konger Front goes further to support the separation of Inner Mongolia, Taiwan, Tibet, Xinjiang, and China's southern, eastern and northeast provinces from the People's Republic of China, as shown in a map on its website.

Localism In Hong Kong
In Hong Kong, localism is a political movement centered on the preservation of the city's autonomy and local culture. The Hong Kong localist movement encompasses a variety of groups with different goals, but all of them oppose the perceived growing encroachment of the Chinese central government on the city's management of its own political, economic, and social affairs. Issues of concern to localist groups include land use and development, cultural and heritage conservation on the left, parallel trading and the increasing number of mainland immigrants and tourists on the right. On the autonomy of Hong Kong, many of them advocate the Hong Kong people's right to self-determination, while milder elements advocate for greater autonomy while remaining part of China, and the most radical call for return to British rule or full independence as a sovereign state. Certain right-wing localist groups also advocate for a more aggressive and militant approach in defending popular interest ...

One Country, Two Systems
"One country, two systems" is a constitutional principle of the People's Republic of China (PRC) describing the governance of the special administrative regions of Hong Kong and Macau. The constitutional principle was formulated in the early 1980s during negotiations over Hong Kong between China and the United Kingdom. It provided that there would be only one China, but that these regions could retain their own economic and administrative systems, while the rest of Mainland China uses the socialism with Chinese characteristics system. Under the principle, each of the two regions could continue to have its own governmental system, legal, economic and financial affairs, including trade relations with foreign countries, all of which are independent from those of the Mainland. The PRC has also proposed to apply the principle in the unification it aims for with Taiwan. However, since 2020, as a result of the passage of the National Security Law by Hong Kong on 30 June of the sa ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
