“Not only is #China [an] urgent threat to our #Democracy, they’re [an] urgent threat [to] your business, and they don't want to just compete, they want to put you out of business,” said Keith Krach.*

Taiwan ranks 8th in the global democracy index, making it the best in Asia, with Hong Kong plunging to 85th and China near the bottom.

The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) has released its Global Democracy Index 2021 report, which surveys the political status of 167 countries or regions. However, Hong Kong dropped significantly to 85th place and China reached a new low of 148th place, near the bottom of the list.

The EIU Global Democracy Index uses five factors as indicators, including electoral process and pluralism, functioning of government, political participation, political culture, and civil liberties; and the ranking scale is 10 marks, with 4 levels of ranking, namely, full democracy (8-10 marks), flawed democracy (6-7.99 marks), and hybrid regime (4-6.99 marks). Taiwan, the top Asian country, scored 8.99 marks for full democracy, with full marks of 10 for election process and pluralism.

Hong Kong, on the other hand, ranked 85 with a passing score of 5.6, dropping from a flawed democracy in the past to a hybrid regime. The scores of electoral process and pluralism plummeted to 2.75, government operation only scored 3.64, and political culture scored 5.56 just passing. These three factors contributed to the sharp drop of Hong Kong in the Global Democracy Index.

On June 4, 1989, thousands of unarmed student protesters, calling out for freedom and #democracy, were mercilessly gunned down in droves and “mown down” by the Chinese military. “It was probably thought that the massacre of a few hundreds or thousands would convince the [Chinese] population not to pursue their protests. It seems to be working,” reads a statement by the Canadian diplomats in Beijing in 1989. Read more:

Italian Health Secretary: China Teaches the World What Not to Do in a Pandemic

Italian Health Minister Orazio Schillaci sharply criticised China's anti-pandemic measures in a presentation at the Italian Parliament on Thursday.

He said that China has taught a lesson to the world on what not to do when fighting against the virus. He calls on all countries to never use China-style measures to fight a virus.

Schillaci also indicates that no new variant was found from the import cases from China as of 30/12. However, Italy has to be aware of the risks posed by China's pandemic, but there is no need to panic.

The health minister also commented on the anti-pandemic policy of China, calling it an exercise in self-contradiction. He added that the recent situation in some Chinese mega-cities would be unacceptable in democratic countries.

The #ChineseRegime is pouring money into pumping out #Propaganda. It's medium is legacy U.S. media, disguised as opinion pieces. China Daily's ad inserts trace back to the Chinese Communist Party. What does this mean for #Democracy?

Amid sensitive days, Hong Kongers climb Lion Rock in the mist, symbolizing resilience. "Mr. Leung" says, "Numbers record history." Numbers help us recall significant events, like 9/11. For Hong Kong, we'll never forget 8964. Commemorating Tiananmen, it preserves memories and values of freedom and democracy. It reminds us that past memories and future hopes drive social progress. #8964 #Tiananmen #LionRock #RememberingHistory #Freedom #Democracy
