Shi Liqian twice announced that the meeting was attacked by the opposition

Shi Liqian twice announced that the meeting was attacked by the opposition.

the Legislative Council reviewed and revised the “Fugitive Offenders Ordinance” committee meeting for the fourth time yesterday, and opposition members continued to use violence to obstruct. After less than 15 minutes of the meeting, Shi Liqian, who was instructed by the internal committee to preside over the meeting, announced that the meeting was terminated due to poor environment. After the meeting, he admitted that the people of Hong Kong did not want to repeat the chaos of last Saturday’s meeting. He did not wish to see another Member and the Legislative Council staff injured. He decided to suspend the meeting. He also wrote to the Legislative Council House Committee (Internal Committee) yesterday afternoon for further instructions. Shi Liqian also seriously denied that he himself did not have the ability to preside over the meeting. He described the experience of the past two meetings as encountering the “Benevolence and Generosity Scene”, which is a challenge worth learning.

The opposition continues to wait for the presiding over the rostrum

The 4th meeting of the Legislative Council’s Bills Committee on Mutual Legal Assistance in Fugitive Offenders and Criminal Matters (Amendment) Bill 20 was held yesterday morning at 8:30 am in the Legislative Council meeting room. Some opposition legislators have been waiting in front of the door of the lock-up room in the evening before, trying to “hegemony” for the first time.

The security guard of the Legislative Council opened the door of Conference Room 1 at 8 am yesterday. The convener of the democratic conference, Mao Mengjing, the Democratic Party members Lin Zhuo Ting and Yin Zhaojian, immediately entered. Mr. Tu Jinshen, a member of the “chairman” of the committee, still succumbed to the “presiding meeting” of the rostrum and announced the “meeting” at 8:15. At that time, the staff of the Legislative Council Secretariat and the translators were not present and no audio was provided. The opposition arranged its own “meeting”.

Xu Zhifeng Zhu Kaidi made a hard attempt to steal the microphone

Around 8:25, a number of formed members including the DAB Chen Keqin, Liu Guoxun, He Junxian, Zhou Haoding, etc., joined the meeting of the Federation of Trade Unions, Lu Yongxiong and He Qiming, into the conference room. Accompanied by the DAB members, Zheng Yongzhen and Zhang Guofan, Shi Liqian, through the back stairs of the third floor of the building, walked to the second floor and entered the conference room. Shi Liqian later announced that he had reached the meeting time. A number of opposition members immediately attacked. Democratic Party member Xu Zhifeng kept yelling and formed a “double voice.” He even tried to rush to Shi Liqian and tried to “snatch the microphone” with Zhu Kaidi, a member who climbed the table. Other opposition members also shouted and the scene immediately fell into chaos. Shi Liqian walked into the conference room only about 1 minute, and left under the guardian escort. The formed members then left. The opposition continued to “meet” in the conference room.

At about 8:40, the Democratic Alliance for the Betterment of Hong Kong (DAB) Chairman Li Huiqiong, the New Democratic Party Chairman Ye Liu Shuyi, and the People’s Liberal Party member Liang Meifen and other members of the formed party entered the conference room. Shi Liqian also entered the conference room on the back stairs. The opposition members once again made it difficult to surround him. Shi Liqian announced the meeting at 8:43, but because the environment was too bad, he immediately announced the end of the meeting. The entire meeting was suspended for less than 15 minutes. Although the opposition’s self-proclaimed legal meeting continued, it ended at about 9:10 and ended up in vain.

Shi Liqian criticizes the opposition to win and win

After meeting with the media, Mr. Shi Liqian said that the meeting hosted on Saturday had an unprecedentedly harsh environment. The meeting could not continue, which disappointed the people of Hong Kong and affected the reputation of the Legislative Council. He called on the opposition to calm down and do what the legislators should do, that is, to legislate and to seek truth from facts. He admits that he does not wish to see another Member and the Legislative Council staff injured. The people of Hong Kong do not wish to repeat the chaos of the meeting on Saturday. Therefore, they decided to suspend the meeting.

Regarding the prospects after the Bills Committee meeting, he responded: “Even if there are 10 more meetings, the Hong Kong people will be disappointed 10 more times.” He even criticized the opposition members for winning and winning. It is clear that Members must abide by the rules.

Go to the internal committee for the next step

In addition, Shi Liqian had written to the internal committee yesterday afternoon to state the situation of the two presiding meetings and to seek the next step of the internal committee. When he was interviewed by the media when he left the Legislative Council, he denied that he mentioned that he did not have the ability to preside over the meeting. He only explained the current situation and did not involve personal wishes. He believes that as a member of the Legislative Council, he must try his best to take responsibility, but the current environment is too bad to perform the duties of the presiding officer.
