3/ There is nothing to celebrate on my prompt release. It only illustrates how the Hong Kong government is not doing their job, they ought to be devoting the effort into helping the 12 young asylum seekers, not arresting me with the absurd anti-mask ban.

1/ The arrest serve as “testing the waters”. By arresting me with a comparatively minor charge, the authorities is testing whether the global community would react, and if so, how strong will the reactions be.

2/ To their dismay, the response from all of you, and others who support HKers, proves that Beijing has every right to be worried. My arrest, undoubtedly a political prosecution, is clearly designed to intimidate the people of HK ahead of the Oct 1 Beijing’s National Day.

2. As the only female of #12HKers caught when fleeing for #Asylum Quinn Moon, has been diagnosed w/ depression for 5-6 years.
According to #China's law, persons organizing illegal border crossing can be sentenced to 2-7 yr imprisonment, let alone other charges. #save12hkyouths

#Breaking On the eve of #midautumnfestival, a day of family reunion, #Chinese prosecutors just approved the arrest of #12hkyouths.
1. Two, Tang & Quinn Moon, are accused of “organizing illegal border crossing” while the other 10 are alleged of “illegal border crossing.”

Talked to @CBNNews about how #HK #Catholic textbooks are now used for #Beijing’s nationalist propaganda under #nationalsecuritylaw, while #China’s office in HK has just waged a new "struggle against the three mountains” - the city's legal, education and social service sectors. twitter.com/joshuawongcf/s…

3/ not to mention hundreds of activists in detention, desperate families calling for #Save12HKyouths while dozen activists detained in Shenzhen are brutally rejected access to legal rights. Walk one more mile in darker night. @save12hkyouths

@joshuawongcf
2/ Next hearing fixed on 18 Dec. One of the charges maybe dropped by then if CFA ruled the anti-mask law unconstitutional. #MaskOnandFightBack Charging me of taking part in unauthorised assembly without questioning the illegality of the law is a neglect to justice in entirety,

@joshuawongcf
1/ Survived hearing today and need not face detention for now. Yet again travel ban imposed, an attempt to restrict efforts to activism. Thanks to the court I’m forced to continue activism more resiliently in 2020, leading to the shift of vibrant online activism during pandemic.

4. In these darker times, the last thing I would like to see is people losing faith. It is the high time these values were acknowledged. We hope the world continues to speak up when our voices are silenced.

@joshuawongcf
3. So long as #HongKong continues to function as the gateway of global capital flowing into China, foreign companies and governments still have the leverage to call for more #HumanRights and #freedom protections.

[Companies should find ways to reduce vulnerability to #Beijing]
1. #China’s new unreliable entity list adds one more widget to its tool kits of economic statecraft, under which it has full discretion in determining which companies are problematic.

Behind tearful story there lies profound bravery of helpless families against brutal regime: ‘In my eyes, what he did wasn't at all violent...I feel like we're doing all we can, but #HKGov't is playing us over and over again'

4. Worse still, under #nationalsecuritylaw and tightening political red line, it is the first time that #Beijing regards the city’s judiciary independence is a challenge to its authority, which sends an alarming signal to the world.
340
@joshuawongcf
3. The paper also criticized the local judges for misinterpreting the One Country Two Systems and failing to uphold their duty to protect #Chinese national interests and national security.

@joshuawongcf
[#China slams HK judges using judiciary independence to challenge its authority]
1. #CCP mouthpiece People’s Daily attacks HK courts for using judiciary ind to challenge its authority, days after #LiaisonOffice urged a “new struggle against 3 mountains” that targets legal sector

@joshuawongcf
6/ If my bail is to be denied, I sincerely hope that the world will keep a close watch on and divert the attention to the 12 young activists and the development of Hong Kong. Pass our devotion on and do as much as you can to stand with HKers. @save12hkyouths #save12hkyouths

@joshuawongcf
5/ My arrest undoubtedly a political prosecution, is clearly designed to intimidate the people of Hong Kong ahead of the October 1 Beijing’s National Day.
344
@joshuawongcf
3/ There is a high chance that I will be sentenced to jail. If I am convicted, I can face up to a maximum of 5 years in jail for unauthorized assembly and 1 year for wearing a mask.
345
@joshuawongcf
4/ Compare to the #12HKYouth, who have no access to lawyers, no access to medication, and chances are they are being tortured inside the black-box judicial system of China with more backwards, draconian laws, I am very fortunate.
346
@joshuawongcf
1/ My case will be mentioned Eastern Magistrates Court on tomorrow 2:30pm, the day before China’s decision to approve the arrest of the 12 young activists and its national day.
347
@joshuawongcf
2/ I am charged with participating in an unauthorized assembly on 5th October last year, and I have violated the draconian anti-mask law, which was later ruled unconstitutional by local courts.
348
@joshuawongcf
I wish people know more about other faceless protesters instead of me. These are the people who were born in, live in, and love HK, flaws and all. The fight for a democratic HK is a fight for every one of them, past, present and future.

He even reduced contacts with two of his favourite cats. Probably, he was paving the way for the departure with his family who may be more accustomed to living a life without Wong.
