The freedom-fighters continue to
protest against the Communists in China, but it isn`t cheap. The Hong
Kong economy shrank 2,9 percent YoY in the third quarter of 2019.
They`re on the way down to recession for the first time since the
third quarter of 2009.
The economy is declining while the government spending are growing at a faster pace. What a toxic mix. Government spending increased 5,3 percent while fixed investment declined 16,3 percent. Private consumption shrank 3,5 percent and exports of goods fell 7 percent.
The freedom-fighters in Hong Kong have
used masks for months now, but today they celebrated Halloween. But
the Hong Kong police fired tear gas into the crowd of masked
Halloween protersters.
People in Hong Kong need to know that the rest of the world is supporting them, and everybody in this world must ask themselves what the value of money is compared to freedom? Readers of Shinebull.com know that money is worthless. Freedom isn`t.

China is staging one of its biggest
military parades ever. It`s a celebration of 70 years of Communist
Party rule as pure, political triumph. It is set to be the largest
military parade and mass pageant in Chinese history.
The 70th Anniversary of the Founding of The People`s Republic of China is an upcoming ceremonial event with a grand military parade as its spotlight to celebrate National Day of the People`s Republic of China that is scheduled to take place on 1 October 2019 in Beijing.
President and Chairman of the Central
Military Commission Xi Jinping, who will be the guest of honor, will
give the holiday address to the nation and Chinese expatriates abrod
before inspecting the formations along Chang`an Avenue.
The Communist Party of China had
defeated the Kuomintang Party following the Chinese Civil War, which
occurred intermittently between 1927 and 1949. In the aftermath of
the civil war, the Kuomintang and its loyalists then retreated to the
island of Formosa (also known as Taiwan), formerly a prefecture of
the Qing Empire, which had been under Japanese colonial rule from
1895 to 1945.
The founding of the People`s Republic
of China was formally proclaimed by Mao Zedong, the Chairman of the
Communist Party of China, on 1 October 1949 at 03:00 pm in Tiananmen
Square in Beijing.
The first public parade of the then new
People`s Liberation Army took place there, following the chairman`s
address of the formal foundation of the new republic. Before this, as
the national anthem March of the Volunteers was played, the new
national flag of the People`s Republic of China was officially
unveiled to the newly founded nation and hoisted for the first time
during the celebrations as a 21-gun salute fired in the distance.
In its early years, the People`s
Republic of China was not internationally recognized as the Republic
of China held its seat in the United Nations and the Security Council
as the sole legitimate government of «China» by the United States
and Western nations.
A massive National Day fireworkks
display had been planned along the harbour in Hong Kong to celebrate
the 70th anniversary. As it has done every year since
1997, Hong Kong government cancelled them «for safety reasons» over
the protests in the city that have lasted since March.
Safety is one thing. Popularity is
another. Hong Kongers doesn`t like Beijing and China.
Hong Kongers have made a new poster:
swastikas and the term «Chinazi.»
A few weeks ago, the protesters marched
to the US consulate to urge Congress to pass the Hong Kong Human
Rights and Democracy Act. Many had American flags. Others had a red
flag with yellow stars arranged in the shape of a swastika.
A week later they all had a «Chinazi»
flag made by local pro-democracy party people power. They also made a
banner that cast chief executive Carrie Lam as an unmistakable
Hitler, giving her the lavel «Butcher Carrie» against a backdrop of
yellow swastikas.
On Sunday 29 September, coinciding with
the 80th anniversary of the divvying up of occupied Poland
between Germany and the Soviet Union, Hong Kongers held a large
protest, alternately dubbed the «Global Anti-Totalitarianism March»
and the «Global Anti-Chinazi March,» alongside dozens of citis
around the world.
«Chinazi» is drawing comparisons
between the Holocaust`s concentration camps and China`s internment
camps in Xinjiang.
Hitler and the Nazis committed one of
the worst atrocities ever in human history, orchestrating a
state-sponsored genocide that led to the murder of millions of
people. Not only Jews, but also political opponents, gay men,
roman`s, gipsy`s and millions of mentally and physically handicapped
induviduals.
Comparing China to Nazi Germany comes
from the author of the book; Nazi China, written by the exiled
Chinese writer Yu Jie. The man also wrote a biography of the late
Nobel Peace Prize laureate and activist Liu Xiaobo.
Chinese state media called Hong Kong`s
protesters «Blacknazi,» while the police called them «cockroaches,»
and protesters regularly refer to police as «dogs.»
Hitler and the Nazi`s committed one of
the worst atrocities ever in human history. They were the worst
state-sponsored terrorist group in human history. Trump talked about
freedom of religion, hate crime and state-sponsored torror in his UN
speech last week, and the term «Chinazi» sends a warning to the
world. The history may repeat itself.
Since the handover in 1997, the share
of people in Hong Kong identifying as Chinese have declined, reaching
38,6 percent in 2008. Today, the number is just 10,8 percent.
Meanwhile, the share of people identifying as HongKongers has
increased dramatically over the last decade, hitting 53 percent this
year.
China Central Television (CCTV) is
expected to mainly broadcast sychronously for domestic and foreign TV
channels with CCTV-1 as the producing channel for the celebrations,
while national, provincial and city broadcasters and TV stations,
domestic internet video, portals, and live webcast sites may also
broadcast the event simultaneously.
The China Media Group (general station)
may also broadcast live overseas through websites such as YouTube.
People in China are grateful and loyal and accept the Communist Party and their lack of political freedom because they have benefited from this explosion of material wealth and opportunity. Don`t forget that free market Capitalism made China rich.
