The same sickness that spread the coronavirus threatens to bring Hong Kong to ruin: the Chinese Communist Party |
2020-02-03 |
[DMN - But, Claudia Rosett] The core problem is that China, for all its high-tech gloss and high-speed trains, remains saddled with a communist-structured political system. Hong Kong's democracy protests have been overrun in the headlines by the new, and in some cases deadly, coronavirus now spreading from the Chinese city of Wuhan. But to wave aside Hong Kong's massive democracy movement as last year's news would be a terrible mistake. That movement has been the healthiest and most clarion response of modern times, anywhere on the planet, to the basic ailment long amplifying out of China ‐ which, despite the current acute medical crisis, is not actually a viral disease, but instead the long-running tyranny of China's communist party. |
