「六四」事件雖是悲劇,但它為我們留下了希望,就是在1989年4月中至6月初這50天期間,中國大地曾經出現過良知的彩虹。除了作為民主運動先鋒的學生外,我們見到很多同情學生的共產黨員,包括最後被罷免職務後再被軟禁的趙紫陽;我們見到很多聲援支持學生的學者;我們見到很多頂着政治壓力、冒着打壓風險來報道民主運動的新聞工作者;我們見到挺身捍衛學生的工人和普羅大眾。1989年6月3日的晚上,不少北京人民為阻截軍隊到天安門廣場清場而犧牲在長安街頭。在往後幾個星期內,眾多仁人志士、善良的老百姓掩護民主運動領袖離境,保障了他們的人身安全。 .

這是一段黑暗的日子,也是一段感人的日子。在香港,同樣有很多感人的時刻。還記得:1989年5月20日,在一個8號風球高懸、風雨交加的星期六,幾萬人由維多利亞公園出發,渾身濕透的遊行至當時位於皇后大道東的新華社(即是中聯辦前身)辦事處外抗議。我們毫不猶豫就坐在濕漉的柏油路上,臉上流的分不清是雨水還是淚水。還記得﹕往後的兩個星期天,過百萬人參與了愛國民主大遊行。大家是滿腔義憤,但示威行動秩序井然,沿途都有途人、商店的工作人員和司機等打氣支持,構建無數動人的場面。還記得﹕在那幾個星期內,市民捐錢出力支援內地民主運動,不論左中右、親中親英、基層中產上層等各方人士都表態聲援內地民主運動。 * z& c, P+ p& Q/ UTVBNOW 含有熱門話題,最新最快電視,軟體,遊戲,電影,動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。 * }8 }7 U+ F7 ptvb now,tvbnow,bttvb / w4 a1 L9 n0 BTVBNOW 含有熱門話題,最新最快電視,軟體,遊戲,電影,動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。點點燭光為堅持作見證; ], M2 M- {9 I$ f: e!

1989年內地民主運動觸動每一個香港人的良知,驅動我們共同追求一個民主中國的動人理想。6月3日和4日在北京城發生的屠殺,及其後的武力鎮壓和秋後算帳,為這個理想帶來沉重打擊。我們見證了這一段既黑暗又感人的歷史。 @5 p3 f8 K0 C( {5 B4 `$ S/ f

25年,彈指一揮間,當年的激情深深地沉澱在心底。但每一次想起「六四」,在悲痛之餘,也想起當年北京市民和學生流的血和香港市民流的淚。它們同樣閃爍着良知的光輝,超越一代人的記憶,照亮我們的心靈。每一年在維園舉行的悼念「六四」晚會上的點點燭光,就像當年在長安街頭和天安門廣場犧牲的英靈的目光,為我們執著良知的堅持作見證。望着燭光,就像在黑暗中見到光明。我不知道還要堅持多少年才會見到一個民主中國,我只知道不能讓心靈內的良知熄滅,因為這是一代人的責任,也是這一代和下一代的希望。公仔箱論壇! J. @7 a( @: f6 c' ?

It was the late paramount leader Deng Xiaoping’s steely nerves and the tanks of the People’s Liberation Army – dispatched to enforce martial law and suppress the protests in Beijing’s Tiananmen Square – that enabled the regime, at the cost of several hundred civilian lives, to avoid collapse. # u5 E: P9 M, |' @$ w5.39.217.77:8898On the 25th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre of June 4, 1989, two questions stand out: how has the CCP survived the last quarter-century, and can its rule endure for another 25years?5.39.217.77:8898+ ?' j6 O9 k.

. D1 e% n) E8 S' g, B' [公仔箱論壇The answer to the first question is relatively straightforward. Policy adjustments, clever tactics of manipulation,and a healthy dose of luck enabled the CCP to win the support it needed to retain power and suppress destabilizing forces. ; p& d+ ^+ r9 j# f 9 p, d1 i* g, A3 {7 k5.39.217.77:8898To be sure, serious mistakes were made.Following the massacre, China’s conservative leaders attempted to reverse the liberalizing reforms that Deng had initiated in the 1980’s, plunging the Chinese economy into recession.

But Deng again managed to save the Party.Mustering all of his energy and political capital, the 87-year-old leader revived pro-market economic reforms, unleashing an economic revolution that delivered an unprecedented wave of growth and development, thereby boosting the CCP’s credibility considerably. 1 y$ m0 t( e+ P0 t7 {' n& Vtvb now,tvbnow,bttvb/ l) E2 D.

Deng and his successors buttressed this trend by granting Chinese citizens considerable personal freedoms, fueling the emergence of a culture of crass consumerism and mass entertainment. In this new world of “bread and circuses,” it was far easier for the CCP to regain public support and suppress the opposition. Carefully orchestrated moves to promote Chinese nationalism and exploit xenophobia also helped. * N2 `# J$ M q; Rtvb now,tvbnow,bttvb公仔箱論壇& T, P2 ]- s c3 g) `* E* a, i j
Even repression, the mainstay of the regime’s survival, was fine-tuned. China’s newly acquired wealth enabled its leaders to build one of the world’s most technically sophisticated Internet firewalls and equip its internal security forces with the most effective tools.tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb0 i( a7 i7 ?/ Q: N! |! {
% E$ C4 D* f+ w; `In dealing with China’s small but resilient dissident community, the regime depends on the strategy of “decapitation.” In other words, the government eliminates the threat posed by leading opposition figures by jailing them or forcing them into exile, regardless of their prominence. Liu Xiaobo – who won the 2010 Nobel Peace Prize – was sentenced to11 years in prison, despite worldwide protest. 6 U1 Q: u* X8 o& B9 z1 _. J5.39.217.77:8898- y) k0 I$ v( J& j$ k; n) W2 e
However cynical, the approach has worked. But the CCP might not have been quite so successful had it not gotten lucky in a few critical areas. For starters, the post-1992 reforms coincided with a surge of globalization, which provided China with massive capital inflows (about $1 trillion in foreign direct investment since 1992), a slew of new technologies, and virtually unimpeded access to Western consumer markets. China thus became the workshop of the world, with its exports rising more than tenfold by 2007. 4 t# U; I" O+ i( y; v. `. p7 XTVBNOW 含有熱門話題,最新最快電視,軟體,遊戲,電影,動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。 0 ?/ a: ]: w* j* y" ~& \' ]Another factor that worked in the regime’s favor was the so-called demographic dividend (an abundant labor force and a relatively small percentage of children and elderly dependents). This provided China with plentiful low-cost labor, while saving the government large expenditures on pensions and health care., w! y# n1 N7 S; W& h3 c

The problem facing the CCP now is that most of the factors that enabled it to survive since Tiananmen either have already disappeared or are headed in that direction. Indeed, for all practical purposes, pro-market reforms are dead. A kleptocracy of government officials,their families, and well-connected businessmen has colonized the Chinese state and is intent on blocking any reforms that might threaten their privileged status.5.39.217.77:88982 N+ L* \5 e8 t* V

Rampant corruption and rising inequality, together with obvious environmental decay, are causing ordinary Chinese – especially the middle class, which once had high hopes for reform –to become increasingly disillusioned.5.39.217.77:88984 `* T, n( G4 L: G1 j

At the same time, given rapid population aging, China’s demographic dividend has all but dissipated. And, given that China is already the world’s largest exporter, with more than 11% of the global market share, there is little room left for export growth in the coming years. 6 t7 L$ `7 H, l: K* E$ U# Q2 Btvb now,tvbnow,bttvbThat leaves only repression and nationalism in the CCP’s post-Tiananmen toolkit.

On the surface, Xi’s strategy seems sound.But waging war on corrupt officials and pressing for deep reforms aimed at dismantling China’s kleptocracy will inevitably bring Xi into conflict with China’s political and economic elites. The question is how he can overcome their resistance without rallying the Chinese people, whose political mobilization could endanger the one-party system.5.39.217.77:8898$ G1 w8 B+ S- \0 C/ G3 W
