At the same time, poor rural families who were
evacuated from their land because of rural development were forced
inte tamperary housings which are wooden barracks. When the boat people expressed their demands, and when the rural families
refused to be evacuated unjustly, their peaceful acts of justice
were treated as rieting, and were suppressed with violence.
To the outside world, Hong Kong is an economically
and materially developed city, yet in reality the material
progress is accompanied with the violation of the people's civil
and political rights. ▲s a result, people cannot take part in deciding their own lifes. This suppression of people's participation
further aggravate the situation of the deprived groups in
Hong Kong.
We believe that a truly democratic society is
one in which people can participate in the development of their society and their own lifes. These rights and powers must be
guaranteed. In the so called "consultation " system, power lies with the ruling elites; in participation, power lies with
the people.
