How Beijing’s breach of One Country Two Systems’ gave birth to the Hong Kong independence movement

By Oiwan Lam.

Following the disqualification of pro-Hong Kong independence candidates from the upcoming Legislative Council election, the Hong Kong government now wants to stop discussions on Hong Kong independence in schools. 

While a majority of Hongkongers agree that independence for Hong Kong is politically impossible, more and more claim to support independence simply to agitate Beijing. 

But the barring of pro-independence candidates from the Legco election has only stimulated people to talk about Hong Kong independence more often, culminating in the city’s first pro-independence rally on August 5. 

According to the “one country, two systems” principle underwritten in the Sino-British Joint Declaration, Hong Kong’s previous capitalist system and its way of life would remain unchanged for a period of 50 years until 2047.

DYI:  The easiest way for Beijing to maintain sovereignty over Hong Kong is to extend the Joint Declaration from 50 years(2047) to FOREVER.    This would have the immediate effect of disarming the independence movement.  

But Beijing has been showing signs of impatience in recent years, encroaching more and more on Hong Kong’s internal affairs. 

DYI:  Unfortunately the fascists control freaks from Beijing are too afraid of a little freedom. They need to get their heads out of their rear ends with the help from Beijing Hong Kong would be a world wide center for insurance, banking, investment trading houses, and real estate able to compete with New York and London.

To clamp down on pro-independence discussions, Hong Kong’s Secretary for Education Eddie Ng Hak-kim asked 30 public school principals to ban Hong Kong independence activities in their schools and threatened that teachers may lose their qualifications if they do not carry out the order. 

After making the comment, Ng then departed to Beijing.

DYI:  Beijing decides to double down by sending a political hack using heavy handed approach taking their ideas of independence by threatening teachers, which will anger the students along with their parents.  Beijing's Education Secretary has provided more emotional fodder for independence pushing this movement further.

China is on the precipice due to their massive debt bubble.  The possibility for sections of this empire breaking away is very possible.  The communist party - which is now more fascist - is very aware of this possibility.  When this bubble bursts all hell will break loose with other political subdivisions wanting to achieve independence.  

Notice how many autonomous regions there are.  This is NOT a single country but an empire teetering under a MASSIVE DEBT BUBBLE.  Not if but when it bursts Beijing will clamp down using draconian measures in their attempt to keep autonomous regions from forming new countries. If this is unsuccessful Hong Kong, Macau, Shanghai will follow.  North Korea will loose China as their benefactor dropping this failed state completely into the abyss leading to reunification.  This will give Taiwan the moxie for full independence.

We live in scary times as well.  Here are five possibilities that could spawn regional if not global war.

1.)  Global financial panic

2.)  General Mideast war

3.)  War between Pakistan and India

4.)  Civil war in China

5.)  China attacks Taiwan, Philippines, Vietnam, OR THE UNITED STATES.
