It’s a disgrace to see this is happening to #HongKong, a place that used to shine as a beacon of #PressFreedom in East Asia. The people of #Taiwan will stand with the people of #HK in the pursuit of truth. JW twitter.com/hkfp/status/12…

[New clampdown on #HK press freedom]
1. While Beijing claims #nationalsecuritylaw won't affect #PressFreedom in #Hongkong, #HK Immigration Dept just denied w/o reason the work visa for a @HongKongFP reporter, who has been closely following #hkprotests

In @RSF_en’s 2018 World Press Freedom Index, #Taiwan remains the freest Asian country for #PressFreedom. My administration is committed to ensuring that all journalists in Taiwan can work in a free and safe environment

@guardian WATCH:
@ISOKO_MOCHIZUKI was interrupted after about 10 seconds of her questions but other reporters were not interrupted in their about 15 second questions. This is the evidence to show that only she is targeted for their interruption.

#PressFreedom is the backbone of #Taiwan's democracy. Yet, #China has been using #disinformation to create discord in our society. I cannot allow it! At this critical juncture, my administration is battling to ensure our democratic way of life not only survives, but thrives. twitter.com/RSF_eastasia/s…

#China is taking advantage of #Taiwan's free and open democracy to create divisions in our society. But rest assured: We will never compromise on #PressFreedom. NEVER. twitter.com/RSF_eastasia/s…
