The idea of political participation was introduced into China early in the 1870s. Subsequently, many intellectuals desired that China should adopt a parliamentary system. Cheng Kuan-ying, Feng Kuei-fen, Ho K'ai, and T'ang Chen, for example, all wrote that the Chinese government should call a parliament to gather ideas in an effort to serve the nation, which was reeling under the pressure of imperialism. The famous reformers, K'ang Yu-wei and Liang Ch'i-chao, urged the convocation of a national assembly to symbolize uniting the people to make the nation strong. These forerunners of parliamentary thinkers led the Chinese people to realize their right of political participation.
