Go watch my latest video on how the #CCP CAPITALIZES #HK special status as a #BLACKHAND for transporting #MISSLES 🚀. #India intercepted this HK ship with missile components. bit.ly/2N3abmo

#China has proven itself as an aggressor, a warmonger, and a bully country. #India, as well as #Australia, #Taiwan and #HK - everyone who had been bullied by China should stand firm and stay united against #CCP aggression. twitter.com/TimesNow/statu…
#Taiwan will support the people of #HongKong in protecting their freedom, democracy & #HumanRights, as well as provide care for them. Read @MAC_Taiwan's release for details of the #HK Humanitarian Aid Project & Taiwan-HK Office for Exchanges & Services. ➡️bit.ly/2V1BHoy

1/ Ignoring domestic and global concerns, Beijing announced the drafted #nationalsecuritylaw that casts even more doubts. The law erodes #HK’s common law jurisdictions as local courts are NOT allowed to interpret the law once disputes arise.
80
[On brink of collapse, #NationalSecurityLaw will be passed by JUNE 30] 1. Against all critics, #nationalsecurity legislation is effectively a done deal. Far earlier than previously expected, the law will be passed on or before JUNE 30, on eve of anniversary of #HK's transfer.
81
6. Under new draconian law, activists will be thrown into an extremely dangerous situation. The same law has been used for crushing #China's activists like rights lawyers #WangQuanzhang. Extracting confessions through torture, black jail & secret trial will be ubiquitous in #HK.
82
[Response to US's visa ban on CCP officials] 1. When #Beijing insists on ramming through an unpopular & sweeping #nationalsecuritylaw that imperils HK’s autonomy, @SecPompeo just announced visa bans on #CCP officials responsible for undermining #HK’s autonomy and human rights.
83
First time in #HK's history: #hongkongers are warned that their flags, banners, slogans or other behaviours during demonstrations or protests may be arrested on charges of "secession" or "subversion of state power" under #NationalSecurityLaw, which was once only found in #China.
84
Less than 24 hours after the law comes to effect, the most absurd thing happened when a #HKer that chanted "Long Live Liverpool" was accused by #hkpolice for inciting HK independence. Most importantly, #Beijing can use this law to arrest foreigners or foreign companies in #HK. twitter.com/joshuawongcf/s…
85
[First day of national security law: #HKers will not surrender] 1/ When #Beijing has defied social oppositions and enacted the sweeping #nationalsecuritylaw in #HK, The UK government has offered an important lifeboat by opening path to citizenship for #HKers.
86
Tam Yiu-chung, #HK's sole delegate to #Beijing's top legislature NPCSC, said media coverage on #hkpolicebrutality can be charged for "inciting subversion of state power" under #NationalSecurityLaw. Now the red line has been once again tightened. What's next?
87
4/ I shall continue to endeavour to let the voice of #HK protesters to be heard by the global community.
88
When stickers citing Bibles were accused of breaching #NationalSecurityLaw, Deputy director of #China's office on #Hongkong HKMAO just said the new law is not one-off. #Beijing will introduce more China's laws to #HK in the future.
Article 43 of the #NationalSecurityLaw for #HongKong pertains to foreign governments, as well as #Taiwan & social media. The legislation already deprives #HK people of freedom & basic rights. Now it's going further! Democracies must act together & #StandWithHongKong.
90
[In response to Australia's new policies on #HK] 1. When #China is imposing the new sweeping #nationalsecuritylaw on the city, Australia’s new visa policy serves as a vital safe haven for freedom-loving #HongKongers amid political persecution under China’s new Orwellian law.
91
JUST IN: One day before pro-democracy primary election, #HKPolice just raided the office of #HK’s survey body (Public Opinion Research Institute), accused it of dishonest use of computer and took away all computers, days after the enactment of #nationalsecuritylaw.
92
Update: Over 130,000 #HKers have cast their votes in #HKprimaries today amid #Beijng's threat. At one of polling stations in Tin Shui Wai, hundreds of voters have been queuing up for more than two hours in order to cast their ballots in this presumably last free election of #HK. twitter.com/joshuawongcf/s…
93
When #China fails to silence #HK's dissents with fear, it appeals to force. Pro-#Beijing thugs disturbed one of our booths this evening when we urged more #HKers to vote. Also, helpers of other democratic parties were reportedly assaulted by Beijing supporters. twitter.com/joshuawongcf/s…
94
4. Tomorrow will be the last day of primary. In face of #Beijing’s reign of terror, I am sure #HKers will further demonstrate our grim determination for democracy & liberty tomorrow. When #HKers choose not to bow to tyranny, we hope the world put #HK under the global spotlight.
95
#HK is no longer trusted as a jurisdiction that practises the rule of law that is capable of affording to fugitives extradited here with the basic protections of human rights and a fair judicial process! twitter.com/ipacglobal/sta…
96
1. When more nations halt dual-use exports to #HK, #HKpolice today applied for replacing its central command system for the marine unit. Police refused to disclose manufacturers and suppliers, but admitted some components of the existing system were imported from Spain.
97
[Support our Thai fellows in their fight for democracy] 1. #Hongkongers will never forget how our Thai fellows stood with us against #China’s nationalist trolls during #nnevvy saga and spoke up for us amid #Beijing’s authoritarian suppression in #HK. #MilkTeaAlliance
98
3. Governments are creating fear by unlawful stalking and onlooking that is ubiquitous in #China. In the past, businessmen like Xiao Jianhua and booksellers like Lee Bo were even kidnapped by Chinese agents in #HK and brought to China’s courts.
99
4. When #Beijing tightens its grip in #HK, this reign of terror will only become more prevalent. At this moment, I have no idea what will happen to me in the future.

[#Nationsecuritylaw changes business-political nexus] 1. Excellent story by @TheEconomist with insights on how #NSL imperils #HK’s business environment, impartiality and gov role, while #Beijing claims the law will not affect business confidence. economist.com/china/2020/07/…
