recently, what i concern on is the next chief executive of HK, the election, from 1200 people, who, some genius think it is good enough to represent 7.5million people of HK. so, each of the voter represent the will of around 6kilo people. anyway, the fact is, as some who is die-hard fan of this blog will know, there is no election but just a show.
"an election is possible, when the result is under control." -- a rumor.
now, there are 2 major candidates, C.Y.Leung and Y.Y. Tong.
C.Y. Leung is a well-known and open-secret member of communism party of china. He is strongly linked with Beijing. He has strong vision, plan and seem to be a strong leader, in which, he has alot ideas and opinions. The weakness of him is lack of administration skill. a simple word the conclude about him is, he is an ideologist. In the past, he was invited to join some real political position that can execute his idea, but he rejected. He is better then talk then cooperating and communicate with different parties interest. Thus, anything he say about "he is going to solve bra bra bra problems", we better just put in as a commercial, rather then he can really do so.
the great problem that he will face is, the business tycoons of HK. and combined with CPR, they form the shadow government and real power source of HK. OK, he is strong linked with CPR, but mean while, what he said about the solution of the problem of HK is, it reduce the profit from those tycoons. and those tycoons, are also well connected with Beijing. Thus, i am not sure he can really execute his plans and vision.
Y.Y. Leung is a well-know 2nd generation of business tycoon, and he is a retarded. All archivements of him can be traced back to those behind and connected to him. i have strong feeling that, the reason for his raise the campaign is, controlled by those behind. He is a typical idiot is fairly tale. ( somehow i cannot believe he is real, coz he is so retarded in the public! what he said, what he done revealed that his IQ is less then 90, i am pretty sure about that) It is very hard to imagine such a idiot will have such an ambition, unless, he was encouraged by his advicers, who are the real careerists. those careerists, of course, are strongly linked with tycoons or they are those tycoons. because of the nature of YY. Leung, he, in fact, is a dummy for them. so, that they can control the policy while keep being off-stage. A similar game was happened since Hong Kong retured to China. Therefore, if YY. Leung was elected, a deeper fusion of commercial sector and government.
lets copy some thoughts on my facebook timeline:
"compare to Tong, and Leung, it likes choosing a bunch of off-stage controllers and a wolf.
i think it is better to choose Leung, coz, at least, he "will" solve the housing problem, and he is on bright side, we know he is connected to CPR.
on the Tong's side, you have no idea who are behind, are those tycoons, CPR? how many connections behind? and 1 more thing is, he is a dummy, than the power is more slide to commercial sector."
"although it seems that Leung is a better choice, but the fact is, curry poo or poo-ly curry. if i think a little more, the weakness of Tong may be the hope of Hong Kong people. since the weakness of him can both easily settled from tycoons, and also people, whoever louder and violent is OK. and if the policy really more biased to tycoons's interest, it actually accelerate the fall of HK, and hopefully, after the darkest mid-night, a dawn will come, that, HK people cannot tolerant anymore and demand quick change in politics.
by the way, the meaning of election or democracy was lost already, not because it is controlled by CPR, but the people, who only hope for a strong and good leader like an emperor, rather then the system, which make no people be the biggest and powerful factor to change the course of the society. However, if we think democracy is the system that can truly reflect public's will, then, may be in HK, when everyone want to rely on a strong leader to save their pity life, how can i say democracy was lost??"
Is the leader matter? may be and may be not, in an ancient time, ar... before internet. it is very difficult to collect public opinion. that make me confused sometime, why is it easy to collect tax from all the time? so i think is, it is a deep desire that we hope there is a leader to lead us, instead of finding the way by ourselves. we still have a stone-age mind in 21th century. we are still lost or lazy to think what is the best for ourselves. the situation is very similar to those who live with their parent. We can always rely on our parent to do much things, usually are those tiny little things like washing cloths, clean the room, etc. so that we can focus to a more "important" things, like making money, playing video game, have fun with friends, etc.
As Erich Fromm in his book ( i hope it is famous) "escape form freedom" pointed out. we actually don't like real freedom, we just want to do what we want. This is a conception difficulty between these 2. freedom, which mean we have more responsibility on ourselves. while, "do what i want" is completely no responsibility, in fact, it is against responsibility. the real freedom is harsh and a stone-age mind will be overloaded. because we have to consider every tiny little part on our life. for example, a truly freedom society will be no law. or just simple law, say "you have to take responsibility on every action you made." then we have to think before we crossing a road. we have to think before we rob somebody. but with law, modern law, we don't need to think, it is forbidden. and that is. and we save much time of thinking. (that somehow matching the statistic that, criminal has higher average IQ).
i am not sure did i mention it in this blog or not, that, why we cannot de-centralize the society. the government did not decide anything but execute the plan that people decides on internet, in public forum. (the detail of it can be a good post too) the society is truly based on people, not some leader or giant. anyway, what i think about modern day president is simple emperor with term. things really not change so much though 5k years. but the thing that make this century different from the past is, people have right to choose, to decide their future.
