China President Touts ‘One Country, Two Systems’ Policy

e35b57d8-4797-11d8-81c6-0820abe49a01 From the Washington Post: “President Hu Jintao declared Monday that Macau’s booming economy and trouble-free politics prove the wisdom of China’s ‘one country, two systems’ arrangement and suggested the policy should ‘live on’ as Beijing deals with Hong Kong and Taiwan in the future.

Hu’s comments, made in Macau on the fifth anniversary of its return to Chinese rule, seemed designed mainly as a response to disgruntled democracy advocates in Hong Kong who have chafed under Beijing’s restrictive rule and dismissed the “one country, two systems” policy as a promise betrayed. ”
