Citat:
Man kan inte representera "ett land, två system" och därmed konstitutionen om man aktivt arbetar mot ett land och förespråkar självständighet.
Det är för övrigt inte annorlunda i andra länder, inte minst USA, där man dagligen i skolan rabblar Pledge of allegiance, och där man som seantor eller annan funktionär svär motsvarande ed som i Hongkong.
I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.
I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all,Hongkong:
I declare that, as a civil servant of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China, I will uphold the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China, bear allegiance to the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China, be dedicated to my duties and be responsible to the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.
