1/ It is foreseeable that China will fully implement the national security law swiftly.
1.1/ It's based largely on the level of international pressure. Even though various countries have expressed concerns, unfortunately only a handful of them pledges to take punitive actions.

1/ “We all know that the national security law is not about security of China, it’s just about enhancing, embracing the Communist regime in China. It could be arbitrarily enforced and that the prosecution of those who breach it may not take place in HK."

3. Under the decree, media meltdown was imposed, banning media nationwide from publishing news or info (incl online) that are regarded by the regime as “inciting fear among the public”. International media like @BBCWorld and @CNN covering #ม็อบ14ตุลา in Thailand were blocked.

1/ EU’s move to ban the exports of police equipment is a reasonable and welcoming reaction when Beijing just imposed a sweeping security law that will be a Sword of Damocles over local dissidents. Shortly after its enactment, the law has already been misused.

Supporting #HongKong is a bipartisan consensus in DC; neither party alone "owns" this issue, and neither is an "obstacle." Based on my experience, the trouble comes invariably from the business community who favors stronger ties to Beijing and thus access to the Chinese market. twitter.com/hkdc_us/status…

“We try our best to turn an island to be a protest site,” Wong told Reuters. He has since shared pictures of his island showing portraits of President Xi and the @WHO’s head @DrTedros at a mock funeral with a sign saying “Wuhan pneumonia”.

1/ Underneath #BTS saga, there are worrying signs of escalating Chinese nationalism & tensions between China & the world. In post-pandemic era, political uncertainty piles up as it becomes even more unpredictable to anticipate what issue will strike Chinese nationalists’ nerve.

[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.

2/ Courageous people in Thailand, having considered the dangerous consequences of carrying on the protests with which Government declared illegal, decided to fight for the resurrection of liberties in ideas, speech & assembly that they can no longer enjoy under emergency decree.

3. I had no access to my phone or a lawyer. Communication was difficult, and the authorities kept replying "no" to my questions. I distinctly remember one of them telling me: "You should know this is Thailand, just like China, not the same as Hong Kong."

[Witch hunting under #nationalsecuritylaw]
1. I just wrote back to electoral officers this morning. Clearly, a large-scale witch hunt is underway & electoral officers are cooking up #nationalsecurity charges against all pro-democracy runners, not solely vetting our candidacy. twitter.com/joshuawongcf/s…

4. People often asked if I'm afraid of being arrested, kidnapped or attacked. As an electoral candidate and a #hongkonger born in this lovely city, I will fight until my last breath. As a friend, that’s what I can do for @nathanlawkc & other friends who can no longer return home.
