HK CE election panel to elect LegCo members – report
Chinese National People’s Congress (NPC) Vice-Chairman Wang Chen told delegates the committee that chooses Hong Kong’s chief executive (CE) will take part in the nomination process of all candidates for Legislative Council (LegCo) and even elect some of them to the legislature, Radio Television Hong Kong reported on Friday.
The committee will also undergo changes to its size, composition and the process by which its members are chosen.
Wang reportedly noted that “anti-China, destabilizing elements” have exploited “clear loopholes and deficiencies” to hurt China’s security and sovereignty along with the Hong Kong Basic Law and the national security law, making an electoral system reform necessary.
