Wang Zhimin, director of the central government's liaison office in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, made the remarks during a meeting to study the spirit of President Xi Jinping's speech commemorating the 200th birthday of German philosopher Karl Marx, a founder of communist ideology. In his speech, Xi highlighted the openness and epoch-defining character of Marxism - a guiding theory of the Communist Party of China. Wang urged liaison officials to push forward the development of the one country, two systems policy with a more innovative perspective, a broader vision and more open mind. This is in line with Xi's pledge made during his visit to Hong Kong in July that the country must do well in building up the socialist mainland but also the capitalist Hong Kong, Wang said. He also said that Marxism is people-centered and practical, and added that liaison officials must step up their efforts to communicate the care and support Xi and the central government offer to the people of Hong Kong. Moreover, as Marxist theory is scientific and truthful, liaison officials must stand firm politically, Wang said. Achieving the goal also requires full implementation of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, which is the latest development of Marxism in China, Wang said. New era thought has enriched the idea of one country with two systems and has offered guidelines to further develop the principle, Wang said. The office will work hard to ease Hong Kong's integration into the nation's overall development by pushing forward the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area plan and supporting Hong Kong's participation in the Belt and Road Initiative, Wang said.

Operators responsible for information security, boosting systems against rumorMicro blog operators have been ordered to take responsibility for information security on their platforms and were urged to build and improve work systems, under a regulation released on Friday.The rule, issued by China's Cyberspace Administration, clarifies the do's and don'ts for micro-blogging service providers, in a move to further purify the online environment by strengthening industry self-discipline.We recently found someone posting illegal or improper information - including pornography, gambling and fraud - on micro blogs, which disturbed the order of cyberspace and harmed others' rights, an official of the authority said in a statement. To ensure national safety and the public interest, we made the rule.In the regulation, micro blog operators are ordered to establish and enhance systems of user registration and information posting and review, as well as to use safe technologies and qualified employees to run the platforms.Micro blog accounts must be open only to those providing real identities, and identity verification should be checked by micro blog operators regularly, according to it.Micro-bloggers should be accurately managed and regulated in line with what content they post and how many followers they have, while those willing to publish news must get a news license, it said.Each operator, in the meantime, should set up or boost systems against online rumors, and have a quick response or emergency procedure to fight illegal and improper information, it said.A convenient reporting channel is also a must, it added.The regulation will take effect on March 20.It's the right time for the authority to issue such a rule, and it will be a key guide to regulate the industry, said Zhu Wei, deputy director of the China University of Political Science and Law's Communication Law Center.On Jan 27, Sina Weibo, one of the nation's most popular social media, was ordered by Beijing's internet watchdog to suspend its hot rankings for failing to stop the spread of illegal content.The 'hot ranking' operation is a commercial behavior, but that doesn't mean it can be operated at the cost of posting information that harms juveniles and the public interest, Zhu said.Internet operators cannot only look at short-term interests. Instead, they should take more social responsibility to keep the industry energetic in the long run, he added.Sina Weibo said on Friday that it would strictly abide by the regulation and improve its management ability.
