3/ Beijing may block representatives of pro-democracy candidates or observers from entering mainland China which would leave the polling stations in mainland China unmonitorable.

13/ If the slanderous operation of the government is tolerated and not refuted, I believe I would be given no chance of defence when I’m arrested. Lastly, I wish to thank all voters who entrusted my political belief and generously gave nominations to support my campaign.

2. The victim, Vikramjeet Singh, was severely assaulted in a place not covered by CCTV cameras, with multiple bruises on wrists, arms and legs, as well as broken bones in chest and back. Impatient with Singh’s hunger strike, officers even scolded him, “go to die!”

3. Even though the treaty claims only covering smugglers and illegal immigrants, it is doubtful whether this extraterritorial enforcement power can be abused under the newly enacted #nationalsecuritylaw that covers foreigners.

4/ With the ill-defined law interpretation and a #secretpolice agency imposed in #HK, the law will harm all foreign interests and ex-pats in this global city. #Xijinping proposed in 2017 that China’s #nationalsecurity covers economic and social aspects.

"Police violence is absurd & ridiculous. We are extremely upset & saddened at the arrest of @chowtingagnes, & we became more enthusiastic about the people of HK. So we thought maybe the least we can do for the people of HK is something through our music." youtu.be/4PQ7IoF3SAk

In Joshua’s island, he is standing in front of a tiny hut in jeans and what look like Timberland boots, holding a hatchet in his hands. His garden is decorated with a big black protest banner and portraits of President Xi & Carrie Lam, as well as a pink cherry tree in full bloom.

4/ Such human rights and autonomy clauses can also secure Australian investors' interest in Hong Kong free from China's threat. Australian parliament can also pass its Magnisky Act legislation to serve as an efficient sanction regime to provide minimum human rights protection.

5/ In order to safeguard HK’s liberties & foreign business interests, I call upon the #UK Gov to impose necessary sanctions & restrictive measures in order to push for the withdrawal of the bill & urge China to honour its promise of autonomy under its UN-filed Joint Declaration.

2. Just like Chinese style cover-ups, the full draft of the law will be made public ONLY AFTER its passage, as a maneuver to reduce dissenting voices in general public. Once the law is passed, it will be used as the new weapon to crush dissidents.

3/ Taiwan has demonstrated to be a trustworthy partner whom China & WHO suppressed. They are preventing Taiwan from engaging with the international community. It is highlighted that member states of the UN should support Taiwan in attending the subsequent General Assemblies.

3. It casts more concerns on the city’s academic freedoms and #freespeech when #CCP members are now nominated to head #Hongkong’s university directly, let alone the chilling effects of the sweeping #NationalSecurityLaw.

@joshuawongcf
The current legislation could not guarantee that personal data would not be sent to mainland China. It was unclear whether the new proposal would be targeted at an outbreak or whether everyone would be forced to take a test.

8/ A week earlier, Chinese government claimed the outbreak of Wuhan-virus was “preventable and controllable” and this week it was forced to admit that virus was able to spread person-to-person and there are cases of infection were reported by people who never set foot in Wuhan.

5. With such systematic oppressions of HK freedom seekers, especially under #nationalsecuritylaw amid #Beijing’s mounting influence, it is foreseeable that more and more people will lose trust in the city’s judicial impartiality which this international financial centre lies on.

2. The attack took place near the main entrance of the consulate today. The assailant approached the victim from behind & punched twice in his head, right at the moment when the victim left the consulate. The consulate is located in an area regularly patrolled by #hkpolice.

3. Just months after the firing of #UmbrellaMovement co-founder #BennyTai, the new appointment casts huge doubt on our academic freedoms, esp whether critical studies will be censured or liberal staff will be sacked. Once precedent is set, it's forseeable more uni will follow.

저는 아시아의 네 마리 용, 한국과 대만의 민주적 프로세스는 홍콩에서도 참고할 만하다는 생각을 해왔습니다. 특히 ‘아시아의 만델라’라고도 불리는 김대중 대통령이 실천하여 이룬 외교적 성과와 국제적 경험은 오늘날 백색 테러의 충격을 겪고 있는 홍콩에게도 시사점을 줄 것이라 생각합니다.

More than just the place that I grow up, Hong Kong is the city's spirit that people dare to risk their lives to help each other, and fight for the city's future despite brutal crackdowns ahead.

9/ However, Chinese were being arrested by authorities and were accused of spreading rumours about the Wuhan-virus, despite it was officially acknowledged. More worryingly, the Chinese authorities have decided to shut down outbound transportation from Wuhan on Thursday morning.
