Chinese Troops to Train Hong Kong High School Students

Hong Konger Press,   July 16, 2005

A hundred form 3 and form 4 secondary school students are going to receive military training in the Hong Kong-based Chinese Garrison barracks from July 19 through July 30. The event will be the first of its kind. It is a shame Hong Kong youngsters will become trophies of the psychological and ideological wars the Chinese troops waging against Hong Kongers – the warfare which Beijing regime has been fighting against the former British colony since undemocratic 1997 Handover.

The 10-day so-called Hong Kong Youth Military Summer Camp was allegedly resulted from a joint operation of the pro-China Army-People-Having-Fun-Together Activities Preparatory Committee, the pro-China Advocates of Ethical Education, the Chinese Hong Kong Garrison, and the Education Planning Bureau of the HKSAR puppet regime.

During their ten-day military training, the mostly Hong Kong born and bred summer cadets will be taught to drill and run in the mornings, and in the afternoons they will have to attend ethics lessons wherein Chinese hegemonic thoughts and nationalism will probably be instilled into the poor Hong Kong kids.

Surprisingly, the Chinese Hong Kong Garrison will permit three famous Hongkong-trained physicians, namely Dr. Xie Defu, Dr. Wu Weiyong and Dr. Gao Yongwen to attend to the teenager cadets for the sake of "health care" -- a move, coupled with the extremely short duration of the military summer camp, indicates that the Chinese troops try every means to make the Hongkonger-oriented military training camp look civilian and harmless.

Disguised, the so-called military training camp represents the first step Beijing regime takes to augment its political influence on Hong Kong students so that its decades-long political propaganda will no longer be limited to pro-China high schools in Hong Kong.
