Office of the Commissioner of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs refutes that the American Congressional-Executive Commission’s report is “Passages of lies, a paper scrap “

(2 Dec) On the 2nd of December, the Office of the Commissioner of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (hereinafter referred to as the Office) issued a statement criticizing the annual report published by the United States-China Economic and Security Review Commission (USCC), which is under the US Congress, is “a pack of lies and a scrap of paper”. The Office said it was interference to Chinese internal politics and Hong Kong’s internal affairs, as the report suggested covering for Hong Kongers and imposing economic sanctions. “Again, the US demonstrates the “US bully” across the world and its ugliness.”

In the report, the USCC stated that the “One Country, Two System” promised by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is being undermined with the establishment of National Security Law in Hong Kong. The Office rebutted the accusation “mouthful nonsense and transposing black and white”, and that there is a similar law in the US. “The National Security Law in Hong Kong is supported by 1.4 billion Chinese fellow nationals, including Hong Kongers and from international communities. Hong Kong is going to meet the breakthrough of turning from chaos back to peaceful public order through the legislation of the law “, said the Office. (Editor’s note: According to “One Country, Two System” committed by the CCP, all laws, including National Security Law, shall be designed and enacted by local legislation instead of Beijing; the current National Security Law was enacted by Beijing directly without consultation and process through Hong Kong’s legislation.)

The Office further criticized that the act of revoking Hong Kong’s independent tariff status by the US was for eroding the business development in Hong Kong and backing the “Lam Chau party” (Editor’s note: The name “Lam Chau” means “fail together” in direct translation, it is believed that the term originated from the screen capture of the scene “If we burn, you burn with us” from the Hunger Games series, that was used by Hong Kongers to express their anger toward the government on the internet. It then became an unofficial party named by the pro-Beijing party, referring to the group of pro-democracy Hong Kongers that, in their opinions, always try to put Hong Kong in danger and create mutual assured destruction together with Hong Kong and the CCP) and the criminals (meaning the pro-democracy protesters) to against the Hong Kong government, describing that it is the US destroying rules and causing troubles to Hong Kong and China.

The Office continued that the CCP is taking right and justice steps to resume the peace and public order in Hong Kong, but the US always “protect and well treat those criminals (meaning the pro-democracy protesters and citizens) who are against the CCP and Hong Kong” by imposing economic sanctions. The Office further mentioned that the report takes no credibility and must become a piece of trash in the history, stating that Hong Kong is closely connected to the CCP and advising the US senators to give up as soon as possible, otherwise they are only bring held up as an object of ridicule.

In the latest annual report by the USCC, it stated that Hong Kong is governed by the CCP’s tyranny more directly and comprehensively through the National Security Law in Hong Kong, which would change the relationship between Hong Kong and other democratic countries including the US. The USCC suggested the US Congress lower the requirements of US visa application for Hong Kongers who are persecuted by the CCP.
