[Instant News/Comprehensive Report]Hong Kong may become the next Xinjiang! Chinese President Xi Jinping recently signed a personnel appointment to appoint Peng Jingtang, the former chief of staff of the Chinese People’s Armed Police Force in Xinjiang, as the commander of the PLA Hong Kong garrison. It also shows that the Beijing government is trying to prevent another large-scale demonstration in Hong Kong.
Released by the Chinese Ministry of DefensestatementIt is pointed out that the People’s Liberation Army Garrison Department told spokesman Wu Tao on the 9th that Xi Jinping has signed a personnel appointment, and Peng Jingtang, the former chief of staff of the Armed Police Corps in Xinjiang, will take over as the commander of the troops stationed in Hong Kong. In this regard, Peng Jingtang declared, “Together with all officers and soldiers of the garrison, we will resolutely follow the command of the Party Central Committee, the Central Military Commission and Chairman Xi, fully implement the ‘one country, two systems’ policy, perform defense duties in accordance with the law, resolutely defend national sovereignty, security, and development interests, and firmly safeguard Hong Kong. Long-term prosperity and stability and long-term stability.”
“Voice of America” Analysts are quoted as commenting that most of the previous commanders of the People’s Liberation Army Garrison in Hong Kong have come from major military regions. This is the first time that an armed police general has been appointed, which is rare; and Peng Jingtang, who was promoted to major general in 2018, served as the chief of staff of the Xinjiang Armed Police Corps. This appointment signed by Xi Jinping is obviously a signal from the central government that it will no longer tolerate any large-scale demonstrations in Hong Kong.
