      From: ltlee1@hotmail.com              "China's democracy, known as "whole-process people's democracy," in       contrast to liberal democracy, is not about five-year pantomime election       cycles, but constant involvement and feedback at all levels of decision       making. Unlike liberal democracy, which posits itself as the endpoint,       China's democracy is something to be constantly developed. As such,       China does not seek to export its model. Crucially, the economy, the       main arena for providing democratic outcomes and social justice, is not       beyond the democratic remit.              The future of China's democratic process is heading in the direction of       greater participation in decision-making processes at the grassroots       level. Feedback is already provided through online and door-to-door       canvassing of opinions and contact stations allow citizens to contribute       to legislation.       ..       The type of democracy that China is building is, as Xi Jinping said,       "not an ornament to be used for decoration; it is to be used to solve       the problems that the people want to solve." Consequently, democracy is       not about voting for a manager of the status quo who, at any rate, fails       to deliver on basic promises, but about producing real social change       that allows citizens to expand their capacities and fulfill themselves."              https://news.cgtn.com/news/2021-11-08/What-are-the-advantages-of       whole-process-people-s-democracy--1513Yj2GGL6/index.html              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
