Patriotas a governar Hong Kong e Macau
Não me surpreende nada que Pequim queira ter patriotas a governar Hong Kong e Macau.
Muito menos me choca.
O que me surpreende é que ainda se sinta necessidade de insistir em algo que parece ser absolutamente óbvio.
Meia dúzia de idiotas a soldo que defenderam a independência de Hong Kong, ou, pior que isso, a subjugação a outros países, não passam disso mesmo – idiotas.
Dar-lhes importância julgo que é pura perda de tempo.
Felizmente Macau nunca trilhou esses caminhos.
Mesmo quem discorda da orientação política chinesa nunca ousou colocar em causa a unidade do país.
Ter nos governos das duas regiões administrativas especiais pessoas que não poem em causa a soberania chinesa, o país, no princípio “um país dois sistemas”, é tão óbvio que nem devia ser necessário referir.
Até porque, na hipótese contrária, estaríamos a admitir a hipótese de ter criminosos nos governos das duas regiões administrativas especiais.
Pequim ainda olha com desconfiança para Hong Kong, é o que se pode deduzir da constante necessidade de repetir e sublinhar o óbvio.
A relação de confiança foi quebrada e acredito que dificilmente poderá ser restabelecida.
Oxalá encontrem políticos à altura do que o povo espera deles.

Especialmente Hong Kong, Elvira.
EliminarNunca mais se entendem.
Abraço e saúde
Quando não existe entendimento, o povo é que paga!

EliminarE os macaenses estão satisfeitos com a política de Pequim para a região?
ResponderEliminarUm abraço.
Até agora não tem havido grandes queixas, Joaquim Ramos.
EliminarMacau e Hong Kong são muito diferentes.
Um abraço
Sorry por meter-me aqui, mas estava a pensar perguntar o mesmo
EliminarMacau é um sossego, Gabi.
EliminarAté agora...
A população de Macau preocupa-se muito mais com outro$ valore$
Nessa situação um tanto ou quanto absurda não existirão responsabilidades bilaterias?
ResponderEliminarBom resto de semana
Existem, São.
EliminarMas o que aconteceu em Hong Kong é inadmissível
Foi muito para lá do tolerável
Era de prever.A máxima "um país, dois sistemas", dificilmente resistiria à tentação, para quem manda, de se reger por "um país, um sistema". Era só uma questão de tempo.
ResponderEliminarAbraço
Ainda não chegámos a tanto, AC
EliminarE atenção que a fórmula é válida até 2047 em Hong Kong e 2049 em Macau.
Depois disso...
Aquele abraço
Pensei que em Hong Kong estavam a reagir a decisão que iria atentar contra a sua liberdade e direitos, mas estou muito por fora
ResponderEliminarSeria assim no início, Gabi.
EliminarDepois a situação descambou para o completo caos.
E Pequim reagiu à bruta
Se os macaenses se sentem respeitados e livres, porquê contestar!
ResponderEliminarÉ precisamente isso que aqui se pensa, Magui.
EliminarPedro,
ResponderEliminarEssa questão de politica anda
longe do objetivo da mesma:
o bem comum. Tomara que
um dia encontremo caminho
de volta.
Bjins de boa noite.

Pequim e Hong Kong acho muito difícil, CatiahoAlc.

Hong Kong and Macau are two very different cities - one with over 7 million people and the other has only 700,000. Just the population alone, HK, not only politics, is a much more complicated city. The issue here is the lack of trust between the people and the government. If you ask the younger generation, the majority would say they don't trust the Beijing government (the CCP). For the older ones, mostly came from China in the old days, they might have a lesser ill-feeling about China (or the CCP).
ResponderEliminarIf you look at the history of Macau, I'd say Macau has already been under the Chinese-shadowing government since 1960's. After the Macau 123-incident, the pro-Beijing Chinese basically control on every aspects in Macau since then.
However, the HK situation was different. The Macau 123-incident and the Cultural Revolution in China ignited the 1967 incident in HK, whereby the British government took a different approach than what had happened in Macau - they initiated social reforms since 1971, whereby HK people enjoyed the growth from 1970's to 2000's. HK became one of the big 4 cities in Asia. Macau remains the same status until 1999.
HK grew up as an orphan under the British parents for a few hundred years. Do they still love their own mother? Whereas the Portuguese never adopted the Macau Chinese, they were just living in the same household for a few hundred years. If you ask the Macau Chinese about Portugal - the answer is they know nothing (zero) about Portugal. Who do they love? China or Portugal?
My experience in the 123-incident would probably shape some people's opinion about China. I was a few years old then, and I was at the post office building, just opposite to Leal Senado. The people in the demonstration had different kinds of costume (very long paper tongue, tall hat, wrap with rope, ... I believed this was/or still is a Chinese way to humiliate people) yelling long-live Mao, down the white ... under the influence from the Cultural Revolution in China. Around the same time, dead bodies were found daily floating from China to the Macau waters, where most of them were tied with ropes and arms tied to the back. If you know the meaning of "jong" - rice wrapped with bamboo leaves and tied with string, this was how people described this sad dark history on newspaper in the old days.
The problem with a lot a people is that they think History is not important .
EliminarI was commenting with friends this Saturday, following a debate on the radio, that we live in a era where information is available like never before but where people seem less and less informed.
Hong Kong didn't start in 1997 and Macau in 1999.
What happened in both SAR's before that explains a lot what is happening today.
The younger generations also.
Macau youngsters were always educated as Chinese.
The Macanese were very few and are less and less.
In Hong Kong the feeling was always that they were first and foremost Hong Kongers.
With a deep mistrust towards China and China politics.
A sentiment that was even deepened after the handover with the Chief Executives that Beijing chose.
Difficult to choose the worst one.
But probably Carrie Lam is at the top.
Furthermore, specially for the younger generation, the absence of perspectives for the future became a drama.
All of these ingredients, coupled with the harder muscle of Beijing under Xi Jinping and the obvious political interference of other players in Hong Kong politics, transformed Hong Kong into a battle ground for months.
It was impossible to continue like that.
And the rope always gives away on the weaker side.
Mistrust between Hong Kong and Beijing will not go away for very long.
Macau, the prodigal son, as long as it continues to behave like it has been doing will not have problems.
Keep you comments, please so we can exchange views.
Kisses for the girls, big hug to you.
