High-speed bullet train travelling between #Beijing and Zhangjiakou made its maiden journey, with facilities and services custom-made for #Beijing2022.

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.
#GreenGrowth #Beijing’s forest coverage has more than tripled from 12.8% to 44.6% since 1980s. The urban green coverage has reached 49%.

4/ HK’s judiciary independence will be in peril since #Beijing has already criticized local courts’ rulings last year, let alone more sensitive matters like national security. It will be the new weapon for Beijing to put pressure on UK companies like HSBC to side with China.

#BBC's interview in the streets of #Beijing. They hear the voices of the Chinese people.

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.

4. In the past 4 years under #Beijing’s mounting pressure over the city, we were stuck in a vicious loop: disqualification > imprisonment > disqualification AGAIN > #antiELAB movement > international lobbying > disqualification AGAIN > #nationalsecuritylaw > forced into exile.

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.

Autumn, the "golden season" of #Beijing, shows its absolute beauty at every angle.

Fascinating moment when #Tiangong space station encounters with Duobao Pagoda in #Beijing.
Students at #Peking/#Beijing University (my alma mater!) also participated in the nationwide protests against the #CCP’s #Covid policy.

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-…
Good news! #Lithuania🇱🇹 is looking to further grow its #Taiwan🇹🇼 footprint with the opening of a trade representative office. Our countries are proof of just what can be achieved when natural partners refuse to back down from the #Beijing bully. ▶️READ bit.ly/3zpqYc9 twitter.com/LRTenglish/sta…

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…

@lukedepulford These #Beijing loyalists are tearing up a voided #BNO passport while leaving the real one at home. Are they trying keep their real 🇬🇧#BNO passports so they can move to the UK when they eventually get discarded by their 🇨🇳#CCP masters?

#Beijing has handed over the Olympic & Paralympic flags to Milano-Cortina, Italy. Looking forward to the exhilaration of winter sports again in 4 yrs' time, in a more united, secure, stable & prosperous #Europe.
