Universal suffrage (also universal adult suffrage, general suffrage or common suffrage) consists of the extension of the right to vote to adult citizens (or subjects) as a whole, though it may also mean extending said right to minors (Demeny voting) and non-citizens. Although suffrage has two necessary components, the right to vote and opportunities to vote, the term universal suffrage is associated only with the right to vote and ignores the other aspect, the frequency that an incumbent government consults the electorate. Where universal suffrage exists, the right to vote is not restricted by race, sex, belief, wealth or social status. Historically, universal suffrage often in fact refers to universal adult male suffrage.
The concept of universal suffrage originally referred to all male citizens having the right to vote, regardless of property requirements or other measures of wealth. The first system to explicitly claim to use universal suffrage was France which is generally recogni

In 1893 New Zealand became the first nation in the world to grant universal, male and female adult suffrage. Historically, however, universal suffrage usually referred to adult male suffrage. France was the first nation that announced universal [male] suffrage; it had the first national system that abolished all property requirements as a prerequisite for allowing men to register and vote. Republican France first instituted full male suffrage in 1792. France and Switzerland have recognized full male suffrage continuously since 1848 (for resident male citizens). The German Empire implemented full male suffrage from 1871.

Hong Kong's Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying has said the region's new constitutional reform package will be revealed on Wednesday, which would bring Hong Kong residents a step closer to their historic goal of full democracy. Speaking at a press briefing, Leung said electing the next chief executive, through a "one man, one vote" system, was not only the wish of the Hong Kong people, but also his and the central government's.

When Hong Kong reverted from British to Chinese rule in 1997, it was promised substantial autonomy and, eventually, universal suffrage. Lawmakers have been debating a bill that would give Hong Kong the right to vote for a chief executive by 2017. But many people are calling it “fake suffrage,” and protests are forming.

With Beijing backing plans for a "nominating committee" to decide which candidates are eligible to run, one civic group is pushing for universal suffrage. Rebecca Valli has more in Hong Kong.

The recent decision made by Chinese People's Congress completely shattered Hong Kong people's hope that the Chief Executive can be selected through universal suffrage in 2017. Pro-democracy groups declared on August 31 that Hong Kong has entered an era of "civil disobedience”. On September 1, the Chinese regime also threatened that “Occupy Central” is an illegal activity. If someone launched the activities, the police must have the ability to handle it. Then, why would the Chinese regime defy public opinion to stop “genuine universal suffrage” in Hong Kong? Democrat advocates made the following analyses.
The National People's Congress Standing Committee, last Sunday, passed a decision on Hong Kong's political reform, and laid down a narrow framework for Hong Kong Chief Executive Election in 2017. It has completely shattered Hong Kong people's hope that the Chief Executive can be selected by universal suffrage in 2017. That night, over 5,000 people participated in a rally launched by Occupy Central with Love and Peace (OCLP), in which a co-founder of the group, Benny Tai, declared: “Hong Kong formally entered an “era of civic disobedience.”
On the morning of September 1, the CPC Standing Committee deputy secretary-general Li Fei met with representatives from various sectors in Hong Kong to elaborate on the NPC's decision. Li Fei said that the mass protest and the occupation of Hong Kong's financial street launched by the pro-democracy group are illegal activities. If someone launches it, police must have the ability to deal with it.
The meeting was interrupted by pan-democracy legislators who shouted at the top of their lungs “implementing genuine universal suffrage" on the spot. In addition to these legislators, others who protested outside were members from other civic organizations, including the Occupy Central Movement, Hong Kong Federation of Students, Scholarism, etc. They declared “shame on the election,” and vowed to fight to the end, while they scuffled with the police there.
Such a protest should not be surprising to the authorities. Then, why would they rather defy public opinion to block universal suffrage in Hong Kong? How on earth would universal suffrage pose a threat to the authorities?
Beijing human rights activist Hu Jia: “The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) knows that universal suffrage is something fatal to it. As long as either Hong Kong or Macau implements genuine universal suffrage, it would be an example for other regions ruled by the CCP to follow. As a result, it is obviously fatal to the CCP. As the CCP is an autocratic, tyrannic and fascistic political party, how would it be possible for it to allow a free and democratic place with rule of law existing in its jurisdiction?”
Dr. Yang Jianli is a scholar who earned his doctorate degree in political economy at Harvard University and was included on the Hong Kong's entry black list by the Chinese regime due to his support for the “June-4th” pro-democracy movement. According to his analyses, the reason why Beijing went in defiance of public opinion in Hong Kong to make such a decision was that Hong Kong is a place that has always played a role in "promoting democracy”.
Dr. Yang Jianli said: “Hong Kong is a civil society that has its own tradition of freedom. People can enjoy considerable freedom, and it is a society ruled by law. Besides, it has freedom of press and freedom of speech. In fact, a lot of information is transmitted to China through Hong Kong. Additionally, any democratization movement in Hong Kong would be an example for places across China to follow.”
Yang Jianli also pointed out that the reason why the Chinese regime has controlled Hong Kong so tightly is economic interest.
Dr. Yang: “Of course, there’s another reason for the Chinese regime's tight control over Hong Kong. As their elite groups have enjoyed tremendous interests in Hong Kong, should it not control Hong Kong tightly and let people in Hong Kong enjoy full freedom and democracy, then the privileges and interests they have had in Hong Kong would vanish. So, it is controlling Hong Kong tightly.”
Yang Jianli said that, authoritarian regimes have a natural inertia, that is, they tend to control others. As long as they feel others holding a different tune, they tend to control them. It is due to CCP's authoritarian characteristics.
Zhou Zhirong, a democrat activist in Hunan's Xiangtan, believes the CCP would certainly treat Hong Kong people who participate in the “civic disobedience” movement with armed force just like the June-4th massacre.

Speaker: Anson Chan
Former Chief Secretary
Topic: The Winding Road to Universal Suffrage
The speaker will reflect on why she feels it is taking so long to achieve the full universal suffrage promised to the Hong Kong people in the Basic Law and why she feels the Hong Kong people must not settle for second best in 2017.
Mrs. Chan retired as the Chief Secretary for Administration of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government in 2001, after nearly forty years of service. As Chief Secretary, she headed the 190,000-strong civil service. She was the first woman and the first Chinese to hold the second-highest governmental position in Hong Kong.
In recent years, Mrs. Chan has taken a prominent role in the campaign for full universal suffrage for election of Hong Kong's Chief Executive and all members of the Legislature. In December 2007 she stood as a candidate in a by-election for a seat in the Legislative Council and won by a convincing margin. Mrs. Chan is well known for her stand on transparent and accountable government, on democracy and on safeguarding the rights and freedoms enshrined in the "one country, two systems" concept that applies to Hong Kong.

Speakers:
Robert Amsterdam
Senior Partner, Amsterdam & Partners, Adviser and counsel to the United.
Front for Democracy Against Dictatorship and Thailand's 'Red Shirt' movement
Jakrapob Penkair
Founding, Organisation of Free Thai Network,
former Thai Government Minister, Government Spokesman and journalist
Topic: The Fight for Thailand's Democratic Future
Thailand's military, seizing power in a May 22 coup following the judicial removal of Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra, says a return to civilian rule could take at least a year as it implements political reforms. While the U.S. has denounced the move and some analysts have warned of civil war, some investors, seeing how the economy continued to grow after the 2006 coup that ousted Yingluck's brother Thaksin from office, have been more sanguine. Mr. Amsterdam will explain the motivating factors behind the crisis and ideas to ensure democracy survives. Jakrapob Penkair will present another perspective on Thailand's situation.

In theory France first used universal (male) suffrage in 1792 during the revolutionary period, although the turmoil of the period made this ineffective. France and Switzerland have used universal male suffrage continuously since 1848 (for resident male citizens), longer than any other countries. The German Empire had universal male suffrage from its beginning in 1871. New Zealand became the first nation in the world to achieve universal suffrage in 1893.

Universal suffrage
Universal suffrage (also universal adult suffrage, general suffrage or common suffrage) consists of the extension of the right to vote to adult citizens (or subjects) as a whole, though it may also mean extending said right to minors (Demeny voting) and non-citizens. Although suffrage has two necessary components, the right to vote and opportunities to vote, the term universal suffrage is associated only with the right to vote and ignores the other aspect, the frequency that an incumbent government consults the electorate. Where universal suffrage exists, the right to vote is not restricted by race, sex, belief, wealth or social status. Historically, universal suffrage often in fact refers to universal adult male suffrage. The concept of universal suffrage originally referred to all male ... -

Hong Kong Protests Over Universal Suffrage Bill
When Hong Kong reverted from British to Chinese rule in 1997, it was promised substantial autonomy and, eventually, universal suffrage. Lawmakers have been debating a bill that would give Hong Kong the right to vote for a chief executive by 2017. But many people are calling it “fake suffrage,” and protests are forming.

2014.07.02 Speaker: Anson Chan Former Chief Secretary Topic: The Winding Road to Universal Suffrage The speaker will reflect on why she feels it is taking so long to achieve the full universal suffrage promised to the Hong Kong people in the Basic Law and why she feels the Hong Kong people must not settle for second best in 2017. Mrs. Chan retired as the Chief Secretary for Administration of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government in 2001, after nearly forty years of service. As Chief Secretary, she headed the 190,000-strong civil service. She was the first woman and the first Chinese to hold the second-highest governmental position in Hong Kong. In recent years, Mrs. Chan has taken a prominent role in the campaign for full universal suffrage for election of Hon... -
The advantages of Hong Kong universal suffrage
During the two sessions, delegates from Hong Kong brought proposals to ease tensions between some Hong Kong residents and those from mainland China. This comes after a spate of protests over their shopping habits. Many people from other parts of China visit during the Spring Festival season spending heavily while on holiday, but Hong Kong residents say they're pushing up the price of basic necessities. CCTV's Li Jiejun filed this report. -
Hong Kong legislators debate universal suffrage plan
The Hong Kong government has tabled a universal suffrage plan to the Legislative Council for a vote. The constitutional development plan will lay out how Hong Kong's next leader should be chosen in 2017. The legislators are expected to cast their ballots later this week. The universal suffrage package needs support from two-thirds of the 70-seat Legislative Council to get passed. If passed, up to 5 million Hong Kong residents will have the chance to vote for their chief executive for the first time in history. -
NPC: Hong Kong universal suffrage 'unshakable'

The National People's Congress (NPC) Standing Committee made the decision in August last year on issues relating to the selection of the HKSAR Chief Executive by universal suffrage and on the method for forming the HKSAR's Legislative Council in 2016.

In 1893 New Zealand became the first nation in the world to grant universal, male and female adult suffrage. Historically, however, universal suffrage usually referred to adult male suffrage. France was the first nation that announced universal [male] suffrage; it had the first national system that abolished all property requirements as a prerequisite for allowing men to register and vote. Republican France first instituted full male suffrage in 1792. France and Switzerland have recognized full male suffrage continuously since 1848 (for resident male citizens). The German Empire implemented full male suffrage from 1871.

The recent decision made by Chinese People's Congress completely shattered Hong Kong people's hope that the Chief Executive can be selected through universal suffrage in 2017. Pro-democracy groups declared on August 31 that Hong Kong has entered an era of "civil disobedience”. On September 1, the Chinese regime also threatened that “Occupy Central” is an illegal activity. If someone launched the activities, the police must have the ability to handle it. Then, why would the Chinese regime defy public opinion to stop “genuine universal suffrage” in Hong Kong? Democrat advocates made the following analyses.
The National People's Congress Standing Committee, last Sunday, passed a decision on Hong Kong's political reform, and laid down a narrow framework for Hong Kong Chief Executive Election in 2017. It has completely shattered Hong Kong people's hope that the Chief Executive can be selected by universal suffrage in 2017. That night, over 5,000 people participated in a rally launched by Occupy Central with Love and Peace (OCLP), in which a co-founder of the group, Benny Tai, declared: “Hong Kong formally entered an “era of civic disobedience.”
On the morning of September 1, the CPC Standing Committee deputy secretary-general Li Fei met with representatives from various sectors in Hong Kong to elaborate on the NPC's decision. Li Fei said that the mass protest and the occupation of Hong Kong's financial street launched by the pro-democracy group are illegal activities. If someone launches it, police must have the ability to deal with it.
The meeting was interrupted by pan-democracy legislators who shouted at the top of their lungs “implementing genuine universal suffrage" on the spot. In addition to these legislators, others who protested outside were members from other civic organizations, including the Occupy Central Movement, Hong Kong Federation of Students, Scholarism, etc. They declared “shame on the election,” and vowed to fight to the end, while they scuffled with the police there.
Such a protest should not be surprising to the authorities. Then, why would they rather defy public opinion to block universal suffrage in Hong Kong? How on earth would universal suffrage pose a threat to the authorities?
Beijing human rights activist Hu Jia: “The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) knows that universal suffrage is something fatal to it. As long as either Hong Kong or Macau implements genuine universal suffrage, it would be an example for other regions ruled by the CCP to follow. As a result, it is obviously fatal to the CCP. As the CCP is an autocratic, tyrannic and fascistic political party, how would it be possible for it to allow a free and democratic place with rule of law existing in its jurisdiction?”
Dr. Yang Jianli is a scholar who earned his doctorate degree in political economy at Harvard University and was included on the Hong Kong's entry black list by the Chinese regime due to his support for the “June-4th” pro-democracy movement. According to his analyses, the reason why Beijing went in defiance of public opinion in Hong Kong to make such a decision was that Hong Kong is a place that has always played a role in "promoting democracy”.
Dr. Yang Jianli said: “Hong Kong is a civil society that has its own tradition of freedom. People can enjoy considerable freedom, and it is a society ruled by law. Besides, it has freedom of press and freedom of speech. In fact, a lot of information is transmitted to China through Hong Kong. Additionally, any democratization movement in Hong Kong would be an example for places across China to follow.”
Yang Jianli also pointed out that the reason why the Chinese regime has controlled Hong Kong so tightly is economic interest.
Dr. Yang: “Of course, there’s another reason for the Chinese regime's tight control over Hong Kong. As their elite groups have enjoyed tremendous interests in Hong Kong, should it not control Hong Kong tightly and let people in Hong Kong enjoy full freedom and democracy, then the privileges and interests they have had in Hong Kong would vanish. So, it is controlling Hong Kong tightly.”
Yang Jianli said that, authoritarian regimes have a natural inertia, that is, they tend to control others. As long as they feel others holding a different tune, they tend to control them. It is due to CCP's authoritarian characteristics.
Zhou Zhirong, a democrat activist in Hunan's Xiangtan, believes the CCP would certainly treat Hong Kong people who participate in the “civic disobedience” movement with armed force just like the June-4th massacre.

Yang Jianli also pointed out that the reason why the Chinese regime has controlled Hong Kong so tightly is economic interest.
Dr. Yang: “Of course, there’s another reason for the Chinese regime's tight control over Hong Kong. As their elite groups have enjoyed tremendous interests in Hong Kong, should it not control Hong Kong tightly and let people in Hong Kong enjoy full freedom and democracy, then the privileges and interests they have had in Hong Kong would vanish. So, it is controlling Hong Kong tightly.”
Yang Jianli said that, authoritarian regimes have a natural inertia, that is, they tend to control others. As long as they feel others holding a different tune, they tend to control them. It is due to CCP's authoritarian characteristics.
Zhou Zhirong, a democrat activist in Hunan's Xiangtan, believes the CCP would certainly treat Hong Kong people who participate in the “civic disobedience” movement with armed force just like the June-4th massacre.

2014.07.02
Speaker: Anson Chan
Former Chief Secretary
Topic: The Winding Road to Universal Suffrage
The speaker will reflect on why she feels it is taking so long to achieve the full universal suffrage promised to the Hong Kong people in the Basic Law and why she feels the Hong Kong people must not settle for second best in 2017.
Mrs. Chan retired as the Chief Secretary for Administration of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government in 2001, after nearly forty years of service. As Chief Secretary, she headed the 190,000-strong civil service. She was the first woman and the first Chinese to hold the second-highest governmental position in Hong Kong.
In recent years, Mrs. Chan has taken a prominent role in the campaign for full universal suffrage for election of Hong Kong's Chief Executive and all members of the Legislature. In December 2007 she stood as a candidate in a by-election for a seat in the Legislative Council and won by a convincing margin. Mrs. Chan is well known for her stand on transparent and accountable government, on democracy and on safeguarding the rights and freedoms enshrined in the "one country, two systems" concept that applies to Hong Kong.

Speakers:
Robert Amsterdam
Senior Partner, Amsterdam & Partners, Adviser and counsel to the United.
Front for Democracy Against Dictatorship and Thailand's 'Red Shirt' movement
Jakrapob Penkair
Founding, Organisation of Free Thai Network,
former Thai Government Minister, Government Spokesman and journalist
Topic: The Fight for Thailand's Democratic Future
Thailand's military, seizing power in a May 22 coup following the judicial removal of Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra, says a return to civilian rule could take at least a year as it implements political reforms. While the U.S. has denounced the move and some analysts have warned of civil war, some investors, seeing how the economy continued to grow after the 2006 coup that ousted Yingluck's brother Thaksin from office, have been more sanguine. Mr. Amsterdam will explain the motivating factors behind the crisis and ideas to ensure democracy survives. Jakrapob Penkair will present another perspective on Thailand's situation.

During the two sessions, delegates from Hong Kong brought proposals to ease tensions between some Hong Kong residents and those from mainland China. This comes after a spate of protests over their shopping habits. Many people from other parts of China visit during the Spring Festival season spending heavily while on holiday, but Hong Kong residents say they're pushing up the price of basic necessities. CCTV's Li Jiejun filed this report.

Chinese top legislature's decision on the universal suffrage in the election of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Chief Executive is 'unshakable,' a spokeswoman said Wednesday.
The National People's Congress (NPC) Standing Committee made the decision in August last year on issues relating to the selection of the HKSAR Chief Executive by universal suffrage and on the method for forming the HKSAR's Legislative Council in 2016.

Hong Kong chief executive promises to work towards universal suffrage
Hong Kong's embattled leader refused to step down on Thursday, as pro-democracy protesters have demanded, and instead offered talks to defuse a week of massive street demonstrations. Leung made his comments at a news conference just minutes before a deadline that had been set by the protesters for him to quit. Leung asked the territory's top civil servant, Chief Secretary Carrie Lam, to arrange the talks. The protesters want Beijing to reverse its decision that all candidates in an inaugural 2017 election for chief executive must be approved by a committee of mostly pro-Beijing elites. Before Leung's announcement, the heads of two major universities whose students joined in launching the protests appeared before a jittery crowd massed in front of the entrance to the leader's office an...

wn.com/Votes For Women The Fiamengo File, Episode 3
The Fiamengo File, weekly on Studio Brulé.
Professor Janice Fiamengo from the University of Ottawa discusses how feminists have re-written history to exclude Male Suffrage from the public consciousness to such a degree that most people believe that all men always had the right to vote. Even university students and professors believe that men withheld womens' voting rights for thousands of years.

Hong Kong's embattled leader refused to step down on Thursday, as pro-democracy protesters have demanded, and instead offered talks to defuse a week of massive street demonstrations.
Leung made his comments at a news conference just minutes before a deadline that had been set by the protesters for him to quit.
Leung asked the territory's top civil servant, Chief Secretary Carrie Lam, to arrange the talks.
The protesters want Beijing to reverse its decision that all candidates in an inaugural 2017 election for chief executive must be approved by a committee of mostly pro-Beijing elites.
Before Leung's announcement, the heads of two major universities whose students joined in launching the protests appeared before a jittery crowd massed in front of the entrance to the leader's office and appealed for calm.
Afterward, the atmosphere was palpably calmer, but many protesters expressed disappointment.

The Pulse：What next for universal suffrage?; Martin Lee interview; Hard times for political publis
It’s shaping up to be a contentious summer, with the National People’s Congress Standing Committee set to deliver a decision on Hong Kong’s constitutional reform at the end of August. For the moment, Democrats are still pressing for the opportunity to talk to Beijing’s representatives, who have been talking a lot to their allies. With us in the studio to talk about what's next is veteran democrat Martin Lee. The Hong Kong Book Fair ended on Tuesday, with the organiser the Trade Development Council estimating that over 980,000 people visited.

The Vote: When Does Suffrage Become Universal?
This year's Law Day theme is "American Democracy and the Rule of Law: Why Every Vote Matters." The 2014 Leon Jaworski Public Program will focus on the ideal and practice of universal suffrage, emphasizing and exploring the "every" in the 2014 Law Day theme. Scholars have traced the history of universal suffrage to the democratic revolutions of the late eighteenth century and the subsequent development of the norms and institutions of electoral democracy, beginning in the nineteenth century. The use of the term "universal suffrage" also dates to this period. Considering the fundamental concept of universal suffrage can help illuminate and frame contentious contemporary issues related to citizenship, enfranchisement, and disenfranchisement.

15/03/2013 : The Pulse
Universal Suffrage; Occupy Central; Land Use Controversies; Tin Sau Bazaar He occupation of Central is one strategy that's being suggested if Beijing does not allow genuine universal suffrage for the Chief Executive in Hong Kong. And there have been increasing noises from Beijing that that is indeed going to be the case. We talk to the originator of Occupy Central, Professor Benny Tai. In his first Policy Address, Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying announced that several areas of land would be rezoned for residential development in order to provide more homes. But already some of those land rezoning plans are running into trouble. Once, hawkers and dai pai dong owners plied their trade on many of Hong Kong's streets. That's come increasingly under control. Some of Hong Kong's oldest and b... -
14/06/2013 : The Pulse
Occupy Central Deliberations On Thursday this week, Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying warned that IF Hong Kong had full universal suffrage Beijing might not accept the democratic choice of the Hong Kong people. He also said that the government has not yet even decided on a timetable for consultations on the topic. It's against the backdrop of such apparent foot-dragging, and hints that universal suffrage in Hong Kong may be universal suffrage with "Chinese characteristics", that a movement now named "Occupy Central With Love and Peace" has come about. The group had its first Deliberation Day last Sunday, and it's the Occupy Central movement that takes up the whole of our show this week. -
19/07/2013 : The Pulse
This is the final edition of The Pulse before our summer break. The two things we can pretty much guarantee people will still be talking about over the summer are universal suffrage and the Occupy Central with Love and Peace Campaign. In Part One, we look at the growth of universal suffrage in Taiwan, in an interview with former presidential candidate Tsai Ing-wen. In Part Two, with us in the studio to discuss Hong KOng's own attempts to bolster the dmeocratic process and universal suffrage here are Joseph Cheng, Chairman of the Alliance for True Democracy, Benny Tai of Occupy Central with Love and Peace, and Christopher Lau of People Power.

Speakers:
Regina Ip, Legco Member & Chairperson,New People's Party
Emily Lau, Legco Member & Chairperson, Democratic Party
Topic: Is it Worth Shutting Down the City to Achieve Universal Suffrage? What is the Future of Hong Kong?
As massive pro-democracy protests continue in major districts in the city including Admiralty and Mongkok, these extraordinary scenes have shown the government, China and the rest of the world that the desire and determination for free and fair Chief Executive elections in Hong Kong resonates with the majority of the public. Yet the consequences of the 'umbrella movement' are also being felt: many stores have shut or closed early; several banks in affected areas have temporarily closed; tourism also been significantly disrupted. Uncertainty over the territory looms which begs to question Occupy Hong Kong's impact on the Special Administrative Region now and in future: is it worth paralyzing huge swaths of the city to achieve genuine universal suffrage? Will Beijing ever relent? What does this all mean for political reform in China itself? Most of all: what is the future of Hong Kong?
Regina Ip is a Hong Kong lawmaker who dedicated nearly 30-years to public service. She joined the Hong Kong Government in 1975, rising to the position of Secretary for Security and resigned in 2003. On her return from further studies in the US, she established a think tank, Savantas Policy Institute in 2006.

wn.com/2014.10.14 Is It Worth Shutting Down The City To Achieve Universal Suffrage
2014.10.14
Speakers:
Regina Ip, Legco Member & Chairperson,New People's Party
Emily Lau, Legco Member & Chairperson, Democratic Party
Topic: Is it Worth Shutting Down the City to Achieve Universal Suffrage? What is the Future of Hong Kong?
As massive pro-democracy protests continue in major districts in the city including Admiralty and Mongkok, these extraordinary scenes have shown the government, China and the rest of the world that the desire and determination for free and fair Chief Executive elections in Hong Kong resonates with the majority of the public. Yet the consequences of the 'umbrella movement' are also being felt: many stores have shut or closed early; several banks in affected areas have temporarily closed; tourism also been significantly disrupted. Uncertainty over the territory looms which begs to question Occupy Hong Kong's impact on the Special Administrative Region now and in future: is it worth paralyzing huge swaths of the city to achieve genuine universal suffrage? Will Beijing ever relent? What does this all mean for political reform in China itself? Most of all: what is the future of Hong Kong?
Regina Ip is a Hong Kong lawmaker who dedicated nearly 30-years to public service. She joined the Hong Kong Government in 1975, rising to the position of Secretary for Security and resigned in 2003. On her return from further studies in the US, she established a think tank, Savantas Policy Institute in 2006. Ip was elected as Member of the Fourth Legislative Council in 2008 and was re-elected in 2012. She founded New People’s Party in 2010, and was appointed as Non-Official Member of the Executive Council in 2012.
Emily Lau is a veteran lawmaker, currently a member of the Legislative Council,Chairperson of the Democratic Party and a member of the China Human Rights Lawyers Concern Group. She was first elected to the Legislative Council in 1991. Throughout her political career, Lau has fought for democracy, human rights and the rule of law.

UN Human Rights Committee’s Follow-up Review of Hong Kong, China on universal suffrage

The review covered universal suffrage, migrant workers’ rights, quality education for minority children in Hong Kong.
Date, location: October 23, 2014, Geneva, Switzerland.
00:49:17 The Human Rights Committee begins its review of Hong Kong, China’s follow-up to the Concluding Observations
00:49:27-55:00 The Special Rapporteur for Follow-up Procedures gives her report on the information that China has provided to the Human Rights Committee since the Concluding Observations were released. The Special Rapporteur gives her recommendations on how China should be graded based on its response to the three issues the Committee requested that it focus on:
- Implementation of Universal Suffrage as provided for in the Hong Kong Basic Law (The Special Rapporteur suggests a grade C1)
- Rights of Migrant Workers, specifically on measures to review the harsh rule requiring migrant workers to leave the territory within two weeks if they lose work as required under their work visa. (This is referred to as the “two week rule.”) (The Special Rapporteur suggests a grade C1)
- The Rights of Minorities to inclusive Education in Hong Kong. This recommendation asked Hong Kong to provide information on efforts to provide minorities not speaking Chinese with quality education in Chinese in order to be better included in Mainstream HK Society. (The
Special Rapporteur suggests a grade B2)
00:55:00 The Committee opens the floor to comments and questions from individual members of the Human Rights Committee in response to the Special Rapporteur’s Report.
The conversation that follows focuses most closely on the recommendation that HK adopt universal suffrage for election of the Chief Executive. The Committee generally agrees on the grades to be given for each response of Hong Kong, China, but discuss at length the appropriate language to be included in the evaluation. (i.e. How much to highlight China’s foot-dragging on the point of universal suffrage.) Individual members respond in turn to each of the issues raised in the report.
1:34:50 The Committee concludes review of Hong Kong, China.

Universal Suffrage; Occupy Central; Land Use Controversies; Tin Sau Bazaar
He occupation of Central is one strategy that's being suggested if Beijing does not allow genuine universal suffrage for the Chief Executive in Hong Kong. And there have been increasing noises from Beijing that that is indeed going to be the case.
We talk to the originator of Occupy Central, Professor Benny Tai.
In his first Policy Address, Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying announced that several areas of land would be rezoned for residential development in order to provide more homes. But already some of those land rezoning plans are running into trouble.
Once, hawkers and dai pai dong owners plied their trade on many of Hong Kong's streets. That's come increasingly under control. Some of Hong Kong's oldest and biggest markets were moved into newer, more hygienic facilities. But many of the new locations are much less successful, and traders in one new market development in Tin Shui Wai are finding that it just isn't working out for them.

Occupy Central Deliberations
On Thursday this week, Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying warned that IF Hong Kong had full universal suffrage Beijing might not accept the democratic choice of the Hong Kong people. He also said that the government has not yet even decided on a timetable for consultations on the topic. It's against the backdrop of such apparent foot-dragging, and hints that universal suffrage in Hong Kong may be universal suffrage with "Chinese characteristics", that a movement now named "Occupy Central With Love and Peace" has come about. The group had its first Deliberation Day last Sunday, and it's the Occupy Central movement that takes up the whole of our show this week.

This is the final edition of The Pulse before our summer break. The two things we can pretty much guarantee people will still be talking about over the summer are universal suffrage and the Occupy Central with Love and Peace Campaign.
In Part One, we look at the growth of universal suffrage in Taiwan, in an interview with former presidential candidate Tsai Ing-wen.
In Part Two, with us in the studio to discuss Hong KOng's own attempts to bolster the dmeocratic process and universal suffrage here are Joseph Cheng, Chairman of the Alliance for True Democracy, Benny Tai of Occupy Central with Love and Peace, and Christopher Lau of People Power.
