HK political reform subject to Basic Law

Hong Kong opposition Civil Human Rights Front organized a march themed "We want real universal suffrage rather than pseudo democracy" on Sunday, which was the first street protest in the city after last year's 79-day "Occupy Central" movement.

Since the discussion on universal suffrage began in Hong Kong, opposition groups have used slogans to negate the development of a democratic political system in the city. In fact, "Occupy Central" leaders used such slogans as their core "political appeal" to demand universal suffrage in the election of Hong Kong's chief executive (CE).

Discussions on Hong Kong CE election should be under the premise that Hong Kong, as a society, respects the rule of law and must focus on three basic questions.
