Statement of the Overseas Chinese Democracy Coalition Expresses its Solidarity with the Democratic Movement for Genuine Universal Suffrage in Hong Kong

-- passed by the 12th Congress of the Overseas Chinese Democracy Coalition on October 5, 2014 in Washington, DC, USA

On the occasion of the democracy movement for genuine universal suffrage by the students and citizens in Hong Kong, the participants and their represented overseas Chinese democratic organizations and groups at the 12th Congress of the Overseas Chinese Democracy Coalition issued the following statement together:

1. We express our heartfelt admiration to the students and people of Hong Kong for your clear demands of genuine universal suffrage. It is just and legitimate for you to protect your own rights, including the right of self-defense. What you are doing follows the trend of human civilization. Here, we express our heartfelt and unreserved solidarity and support to the heroic Hong Kong students and citizens.

2. On this occasion that is related to the freedom and dignity of seven million Hong Kong people, we appeal to the Hong Kong government and police to maintain self-restraint and conform to the wishes of the people, to protect their safety and not become an enemy of the people and a tool for violent repression.

3. We warn the Chinese Communist authorities not to repeat in Hong Kong the June 4 1989 Massacre in Beijing and the suppression in Tibet and Xinjiang. We demand the immediate release of those who were arrested due to their solidarity with the democratic movement in Hong Kong, to comply with its commitments of "two systems in one country", to implement the Sino-British Joint Declaration and the Basic Law in Hong Kong, and to safeguard the democratic rights of people in Hong Kong to govern themselves.

4. The Hong Kong peoples' call for "candidates to be nominated by the citizens and one person, one vote" is also a basic demand of the Chinese people that is a rational expression of human civilization. We appeal to all people with lofty ideals in China and abroad, to respond positively to the pro-democracy movement of genuine universal suffrage in Hong Kong in various ways, to promote the democratization of China with joint effort.

5, we urgently appeal to the international community and the people who love freedom to pay close attention to the situation in Hong Kong and to form a strong backing to the people of Hong Kong, and to make the greatest efforts to protect the safety and basic rights of the people in Hong Kong, and to maintain stability and peace in the Asia-Pacific region.
