4. The law is just the stepping stone for more interventions from #Beijing. With its ill-defined scope, the law will doubtlessly become the new weapon to crush dissents. With the new #secretpolice agency, Beijing can enforce #China's law in the territory of #HK.
302
3. That’s another case that #Hongkong judges biasedly praise pro-#Beijing assailants. Earlier in April, HK judge hailed another assailant for having "noble sentiments” after he slashed three #HKers with beef knife, causing one's lung collapsed and wounds on their necks and backs.
303
4/ Not to mention that PAP was used to suppress uprisings in Xinjiang and Tibet. When it is expected protests will resume ahead of local legislative elections in September, it is doubtless that #Beijing will take a strong-arm policy this time.
304
5. Under #nationalsecuritylaw and #Beijing's #wolfwarriordiplomacy, it's worrrying that similar intimidation will happen in #HK, esp when #Chinese data companies were found actively spying the world’s influential individuals and constructing database on behalf of #CCP government.
305
4. Such #Beijing interference intensified before #nationalsecuritylaw. As @amnesty report says, #Beijing & its loyalists increasingly use “threats, bullying and harassment” to stamp out voices criticizing #China’s human rights violations in HK & #Uyghurs. amnesty.ca/news/human-rig…

2. Similar things have already happened last year in #Hongkong, where Apple removed our crowdsourced mapping app HKmap.live from App Store, days after #Beijing’s state mouthpiece’s criticisms. qz.com/1725175/apple-…

Tens of thousands of people in #HongKong defy a police ban to attend #June4 candlelight vigil to mark 31st anniversary of #TiananmenSquareMassacre, as a #NationalSecurityLaw imposed on #HK by #Beijing looms

1/ We also send a message to those in prison that HKers won’t forget why we are here. We will carry on with our determination in the new year. However, tyranny is afraid of the will of the people. #Beijing chooses not to answer it bravely, but cowardly suppress it.
While the #CCP is having its "most important" sixth plenary session, #Beijing experience another "end of the world" day on Nov 7.   #北京 “ 喜迎”六中全会召开,
Defend #BeijingOlympics! Everyone in a community in Jinnan District in #Tianjin taken to quarantine camps. #Tianjin is 60 miles away from #Beijing. 天津津南区小区都被拉去集中营隔离。
At Nongguang Dongli in #Beijing. Are they killing the #virus, or polluting the environment? #北京 农光东里,消杀还是破坏环境? #COVID #COVID19 #CCPVirus #lockdown #CCP #CCPChina #中共病毒

4. #CCP-funded courses also function as #China's propaganda arms, with their teaching materials legitimizing #Beijing’s human rights violations in #Uyghur re-education camps in #Xinjiang and stigmatizing #HK democracy movements. news.com.au/finance/busine…
314
2/ Local courts are also NOT allowed to give a milder interpretation of the offence to protect human rights. The interpretation power is exclusively assigned to #Beijing’s top legislature Standing Committee of the NPC.

This doctor in #Beijing says he saw 433 patients sent to the emergency room in 24 hours, 113 , or 26% of them were seriously ill, 12 or 3% died. See the pictures he posted. #ChinaCovidNews #chinacovid #ChinaCovidNightmare #ChinaCovidSurge #China #CCPChina twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Sorry, dear friends in #Beijing, it is your chum #VladimirPutin that invaded #Ukraine and started a war, not Nato, so cut out your outrageous lies and claptrap. And we have every right to watch Asia-Pacific - and to warn #CCP #China theguardian.com/world/2022/apr…
318
3. Without public scrutiny on funds from #Beijing government and directly funded bodies, it is worrying that those CCP funds have become China’s new leverage, which would clearly undermine the educational independence of receiving universities.

#HongKong pro-democracy camp convenor Tanya Chan on the Liasion Office claiming itself & #Beijing’s HKMAO are not bound by Article 22 of the Basic Law: it’s no longer “Western ruling #HK”, it’s Beijing directly. It’s just that office chief Luo Huining hasn’t sat in CE Office yet
The Mosque at Niu Street (牛街) in #Beijing is used to store bodies. “All are bodies here. There are more inside. What can we do?” The man shooting the video asks. #ChinaCovidCases #chinacovid #ChinaCovidSurge #ChinaCovidDeaths #ChinaCovidNightmare #ChinaCovidNews
Outside #Babaoshan Cemetery in #Beijing, a long line of waiting cars. The man who shot this video says these are only people who want to have the bodies temporarily stored there. It is even more difficult to get the cremation service appointment. More: youtu.be/FApILRGPkZA

8/ Your personal information can also be sent to #China, since the new body will share information (with ill-defined scopes) with #hkpolice. Without checks and balances, #Beijing requires #hkpolice and courts “cooperate with new China’s office”.
323
5/ CE is a puppet regime appointed by #Beijing, and you know the result). While revealing #Beijing’s hostility towards local judges, the new arrangement implies political considerations and loyalty can supersede and erode judicial independence.

8/ While #Beijing once claimed there would be no speech crime, the reality turns out to be the exact opposite. After all, the situation becomes more critical, especially after the election was postponed.
