我相信大部分市民希望在2017年可以普選特首,大部分市民亦對以前選舉委員會這種組成和程序沒有信心,大家不願意淪為舉手機器,沒有真正的選擇。選舉是沒有百分之一百的安全系數,如果要設計一個有百分百安全系數的選舉,那只會是任命而不是選舉。任何選舉制度在一定程度上是建基於對選民的信心,而過往香港亦多次證明了香港的選民是理性地作出選擇。如果擔心500多萬名合資格選民一人一票仍然會選出一個和中央對着幹的特首,那麼問題已不再在特首選舉而是在更嚴重的中央與香港的關係了。另一方面,所謂「對着幹」,可能只是指一些會向中央極力爭取甚至會說真話的特首。由管治的角度來看,一個敢言進取和得到人民支持的特首,不是比一個只懂逢迎,唯唯諾諾和不得民心的下屬,對香港和中國的發展更好嗎? , A4 u U$ t. pwww2.tvboxnow.com6 i% @$ E9 }5 e. z+ B* n& `; a
中央政府會不會願意接受一個沒有百分百安全系數的選舉呢?要設計一套能夠符合中央政府經已設下的限制但是仍然可以給不同政見的人士可以有一個合理的機會參選的制度並非太難,困難的反而是各方是否願意接受這種一方面沒有公民提名,但另一方面又容許一些不同政見的人士都有機會參選的制度。在目前越趨兩極化的政治環境下,對能達成這種協議的前景我實在不敢樂觀。1 f2 V2 k, h% F0 I4 c3 f, G

V T+ t- b! \0 t 0 R. ^; o) @0 K公仔箱論壇ON JULY 15th Hong Kong’s leader, Leung Chun-ying, presented a report to China’s leaders in Beijing on how to reform the territory’s electoral system. In it he suggested that most Hong Kongers were perfectly happy with a system under which a rigged committee of worthies weeds out anyone the mainland does not like, and did not want greater political freedom. The report angered many in the former British colony, who complain that China no longer respects the unique formula of “one country, two systems”under which Hong Kong is supposed to be governed and believe its actions so far suggest it will not keep its promise to allow universal suffrage in the election of the territory’s leader by 2017. Amid the uproar, however, one voice has been notably silent: that of Britain. ; R7 [3 k# W: M+ a! z$ Y - C# k {/ j' g7 S- O公仔箱論壇In 1984 Margaret Thatcher signed the Sino-British Joint Declaration with a Chinese leader, Zhao Ziyang. The document laid the groundwork for Hong Kong’s Basic Law, its post-handover constitution.For several years after Britain handed over power in 1997, China adhered scrupulously to the Basic Law. This week, amid growing concerns for Hong Kong’s autonomy, two senior Hong Kong politicians, Martin Lee Chu-ming and Anson Chan Fang On-sang, visited London hoping to meet David Cameron. They succeeded only in seeing Nick Clegg, the deputy prime minister, who told them that Britain “will not shy away from defending the principle of one country, two systems”. Yet that is precisely what Britain is doing.5 P: |5 q; }# |) k% z8 p% U4 P8 I% D
# X% t' J+ l$ T, d9 cwww2.tvboxnow.comAs China has become more powerful, it has exerted increasing influence in Hong Kong—over the electoral process, by leaning on editors to tone down criticism of China (see article),and through its pressure on religious groups, such as Falun Gong, that are banned on the mainland. A white paper written by the central government and published in June declared that Hong Kong’s autonomy was in the gift of Beijing. It also called on the territory’s judiciary to recognise that it has a duty to “be patriotic”—i.e., mindful of China’s national interests—a contradiction of Hong Kong’s common-law English system and a threat to judicial independence.www2.tvboxnow.com C$ [" c1 ?0 [+ P

The trip was billed as a rapprochement after a period in which China had kept Britain in the cold. Two years ago, Britain’s prime minister, David Cameron, met the Dalai Lama, Tibet’s exiled spiritual leader, whom Beijing labels a “splittist”. As a result, China shunned British leaders andbusinessmen. Signalling that China was willing to put the past behind it, Mr Li signed deals worth £14 billion ($24 billion). Nobody needed to spell out what from now on would be the terms of the relationship:deals would flow, but only for as long as Britain kept its nose out of Chinese affairs. ; Q0 S3 z( n2 i) Dtvb now,tvbnow,bttvb; H6 e# A& `5 o# R- p8 s
The consequences of that pact are now becoming clear. This month the British foreign secretary issued the latest of his twice-yearly reports on Hong Kong. He noted that some in Hong Kong had said that the white paper threatened the city’s autonomy. But it did not contain a word of criticism for the document itself, nor for the government in Beijing. 7 h! o3 S; B7 Hwww2.tvboxnow.com 0 o, E: b. d" B( {3 Y* o9 MThat is bad for Hong Kong. Its role as a global financial centre is based upon the freedom of its press, the independence of its judiciary and the rule of law. Hong Kong’s citizens risk seeing the autonomy guaranteed by the Basic Law eroded. . f" {, k5 C( o9 ktvb now,tvbnow,bttvb4 g' R. O Y7 ^+ o( H _
For British firms, the price of confronting China could be high. But in terms of the country’s broader interests, failing to do so would be costlier. Countries that renege on treaty commitments lose credibility. Moreover, Britain’s outsize diplomatic clout derives from its values as a democracy and its ability as a permanent member of the Security Council to galvanise coalitions. Its behaviour over Hong Kong suggests that either or both of those sources of strength are failing, for it seems unwilling to use its clout to defend its values. $ b9 p% G& s8 B, o2 @tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb公仔箱論壇' S+ l X. `6 K+ @6 w) q
Britain alone might not curb China’s behaviour. But other countries, including America, are alarmed at Chinese bullying in neighbouring seas and distant continents. If Britain were willing to stand by Hong Kong’s liberties, they would be prepared to do so too. If Britain kow-tows to China, why should they bother? * k& ~6 ^) n- k" f1 o8 m$ Bwww2.tvboxnow.com ; g0 z2 ~7 Y3 a+ Utvb now,tvbnow,bttvb 4 I! k8 \( b3 ^5 k; [
