"Some people in Hong Kong, who appear as authorities of law, have spread fallacies and absurdities about the Basic Law when it was in the making," Li said. "And they continue to distort the law though it has been in effect for so many years, resulting in a trap of public opinion, which suggests any interpretation of the law is equivalent to interference in Hong Kong's independent judicial power. "

NATURE OF ADVOCACY FOR "HONG KONG INDEPENDENCE"

In recent years, some people in Hong Kong SAR have publicly advocated for "Hong Kong independence," causing concern among all Chinese, including those who live and work in Hong Kong, said Zhang Rongshun, vice chairperson of the Legislative Affairs Commission of the NPC Standing Committee in an explanation of the draft interpretation on Saturday.

The nature of "Hong Kong independence" is to split the nation, Zhang said, stressing the words and actions advocating "Hong Kong independence" would severely "damage national unity, territorial integrity and national security and affect the long-term prosperity and stability Hong Kong."

During the election of the sixth LegCo of the Hong Kong SAR, six candidates who publicly supported "Hong Kong independence" were deprived of the right to stand for valid nomination.

At the swearing-in ceremony for the sixth LegCo of the Hong Kong SAR on Oct. 12, a handful of legislators-elect violated the oath intentionally, publicly voiced support for "Hong Kong independence" and insulted the Chinese nation. Their oaths were declared invalid.
