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.

I am thinking about @joshuawongcf today, as he spends yet another birthday in prison.

4. Just like the situation in #China, religious groups in #HK are now in the #CCP’s crosshairs under #nationalsecuritylaw. The world should avoid over-optimism about the new law and should be cautious of its actual impacts.

Good to see @HeikoMaas and the German Government naming and shaming Hungary. It cannot be right that a single EU Member State is able to block EU measures to respond to the human rights crisis in Hong Kong, including an EU lifeboat scheme. #Lifeboat #HK twitter.com/StuartKLau/sta…

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.

Not content with the vague & draconian powers under the National Security Law, Commissioner of Police Chris Tang Ping-keung has called for the outlawing of @appledaily_hk & for a new law to censor the press on the grounds of 'fake news'. #FreePress #HK scmp.com/news/hong-kong…

2/ According to the latest poll, 64% of the city’s population opposes #China’s blackbox #nationalsecuritylegislation that completely bypasses local legislative scrutiny. However, Beijing chooses to ignore all critics and turns #HK into another Mainland city.
