【新唐人2013年07月15日讯】去年在香港被指为洗脑的国民教育科，在港人的强烈反对下撤回，日前《香港基本法小学生简易读本》内容再惹争议，被认为有明显的政治倾向。香港民间批评中共和香港亲共人士暗渡陈仓，以推介《基本法》为名，行洗脑之实。
据港媒报导，香港部分小学所派发的《香港基本法小学生简易读本》，最近遭到大批家长投诉，说书中包含大量灌输盲目“爱国”的内容，而且有许多地方与基本法无关或不符。“国民教育家长关注组”发出愚民式国民教育死灰复燃的声音，呼吁学校停止再发放“读本”，并要求收回已印制的书籍。
《香港基本法小学生简易读本》是由“基本法推介联席会议”所出版，现任香港特首梁振英是这个“基推会”的名誉顾问，梁振英曾大力推行国民教育。此外，《苹果日报》还爆出，“基推会”名誉主席黄富荣，有可能是1967年策动“六七暴动”的斗争委员会学生代表，当时香港亲中共的左派，在中共毛泽东发动的“文化大革命”影响下，展开对抗香港政府的暴动。因此，评论人士认为，这是中共与香港亲共左派人士相互勾结，对香港开展的新一轮洗脑。
北京社会活动家胡佳：“现在中共使尽了各种方法想去给香港进行洗脑，现在它那种笼统的意识形态的东西往里塞恐怕有困难，但它又转换了方法， 它开始拿基本法做文章，它知道香港是一个法制社会，那么它拿法律做文章就有可能有更高的便利性， 我认为它是把国教的问题变换了一下包装，又想把它推进香港的教育体系中。”
“香港国民教育家长关注组”对《读本》当中的“染红”内容表示震惊，包括诸如“提到国旗、国徽及国歌使我们充满了作为中国人的自豪”、主权移交时国旗升起“洗雪了香港被侵占的百年国耻”等情感引导的字句。
《香港基本法小学生简易读本》还加入了《基本法》中没有提及的内容，包括香港市民“应当维护行政长官的权威地位”、行政长官法律地位高于行政、立法及司法机关。
香港律师何俊仁：“他们的教材确实是从党国的观念出发，以共产党的专政为主导的思想来教育。 绝对不应该用这些教材。”
香港城市大学学生陈浩华：“其实我们反对的就是一些我们觉得不合理的地方， 其实它不是一个真正的国民教育，是一个洗脑的国民教育，就是叫我们去盲目的爱国，不去想中国（中共）的不好，那些课程是一面倒说中国（中共）的好，我觉得这是不合理。”
港民指出，虽然“国民教育科”在港人的强烈反对下暂时搁浅，但中共对于香港的洗脑行为从未真正的停止过。
陈浩华：“虽然政府已经没有搞国民教育，但是其实在平常的生活在搞很多的东西，去想搞国民教育或者一些相关的东西，每年暑假都有很多交流团是去内地的，中央政府给很多钱的那些交流团，其实这些都是国民教育或者是一些洗脑的东西。”
另据报导，中共喉舌《环球时报》涉嫌发表挑动民众对所谓“不爱国”的港人“不要客气”。
陈浩华：“他们说的爱国其实不是爱国，他们说的爱国其实是爱党，你要听从党的吩咐，你不听从就是不爱国，但是我不认同。 如果一个国家发展好的话，是真的爱人民的话，我们学生、人民其实不用你那么多的国民教育也会爱国。”
民调也显示，香港主权移交十六年以来，港人对中国人身份的认同并未上升，反呈下降趋势。评论人士指出，当局应该反省为什么当下的年轻人没有以政府希望的方式去爱国，而不应该去想尽各种办法给年轻人洗脑。

Hong Kongers: No More Brainwashing Education and Against Blind Patriotism
Last year, proposals for"brainwashing program"
in Hong Kong national education curriculums
were suspended under strong protest
by Hong Kong citizens.
Recently, an elementary school book titled “Primary
Student Handbook of the Basic Law of Hong Kong”
is again sparking the same controversy.
Some say the textbook clearly attempts to deliver
political messages.
Hong Kong citizens criticized the Chinese Communist Party
(CCP) and its local followers for indoctrinating children
in the name of teaching Basic Law.
Hong Kong media reports say that the"Primary Student
Handbook of the Basic Law of Hong Kong” distributed
to some schools recently,
has received much criticism from parents.
It was criticized because most of it’s contents
sought to instill blind patriotism, and
contained things that have no relation to,
or even conflict with, the facts of Basic Law.
A parent advocate group warned that “brainwashing
with patriotic education"had returned.
They called on schools to stop distributing the
new textbook and recalling all printed ones.
The"Primary Student Handbook of the Basic Law of
Hong Kong"was published by the Joint Committee for
the Promotion of The Basic Law of Hong Kong.
Hong Kong’s current Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying,
who has strongly supported “patriotic education",
is an honorary advisor of the committee.
Hong Kong’s Apply Daily newspaper further says that
the committee’s honorary president, Huang Furong,
may have been a student member who took part in
instigating the Leftist Riots in Hong Kong in 1967.
At that time Hong Kong’s pro-communist leftists
were inspired by Mao’s Cultural Revolution.
They initialized large scale demonstrations
against British rule which later turned into a riot.
Commentators say the party is again colluding with
leftists in Hong Kong to start a new round of"brainwashing attacks".
Hu Jia, social activist in Beijing:"Right now the CCP
is trying to brainwash Hong Kong people in many ways.
Since generally introducing its ideology will likely fail,
the party changed its strategy and worked on
the legal education.
It knows that Hong Kong is a constitutional society
so it may be more convenient to do something in this area.
I think the party simply changed the appearance of it’s
so-called ‘patriotic education’ and attempted to add it into Hong Kong’s general education system."
The Hong Kong Parent Advocate Group against Patriotic
Education say they were shocked by the “red contents"of the new textbook.
There are sentences such as,"Whenever we see the national
flag or emblem, and hear the national anthem, our hearts
are filled with a sense of pride for being Chinese."
It also tries to lead children’s emotion saying that when
the CCP’s national flag was raised in the handover ceremony,
“Hong Kong’s century-shame of being occupied
by Britain was removed."
Furthermore, the textbook also includes contents
that are not mentioned in the Basic Law.
For example, it says Hong Kong’s citizens
“should protect the authority of its Chief Executive,"
and “The Chief Executive has a superior legal status
over administrative, legislative, and judicial powers.
He Junren, Hong Kong lawyer:
“This textbook truly is based on the party’s opinions.
It tries to educate the students mostly with
the CCP’s dictatorship ideology.
Therefore they should definitely not be accepted."
Chen Haohua, student at City University of Hong Kong:
“What we really oppose is the parts that are unreasonable.
In essence it’s brainwashing education,
rather than real national education.
It simply tells us to be fanatically patriotic and
not to think about the CCP’s faults.
Those lessons one-sidedly say good words about
the CCP, which departs from reason in my opinion."
Local residents say that although"patriotic education “was
suspended due to strong protest from Hong Kong’s people,
the CCP never really stopped its brainwashing battle
against the former colony.
Chen Haohua:"The government has stopped
its plan of patriotic education,
but it’s doing a lot more things with
a similar intention in our daily life.
For example, every summer we have many
exchange tours to mainland China.
Especially for those who get heavily funded
by the central government,
they are mostly about patriotic lessons
or other brainwashing stuff."
The Global Times, a mouthpiece media of the CCP,
reportedly published an article provoking Chinese people
to “show no mercy" toward"unpatriotic Hong Kongers".
Chen Haohua: “What they call patriotism isn’t real patriotism.
They say ‘love your country’, but they mean ‘love the party.’
You have to obey the party; otherwise you aren’t ‘patriotic’.
I don’t agree with this.
If a country is well-developed and really cares for its people,
our students and civilians will love it,
without need for such patriotic education."
According to a recent poll, during the sixteen years
since the handover,
Hong Kong people show a decreasing trend
of recognizing themselves as Chinese.
Commentators say the authorities should ask themselves
why young people haven’t loved their country the way they want them to,
instead of sparing no efforts in brainwashing them.
