1. While #China imposed a new law that can expel elected lawmakers directly, HK regulators attempted to comfort foreign investors in this int'l city by claiming "financial institutions can implement US sanctions" w/o fear of violating #nationalsecuritylaw

4/ Accusing candidates including myself of "soliciting interference by foreign government" with fabricated allegations, four lawmakers were banned from the election in July. They are now unseated on the same ground.

3/ The latest decision effectively bans disqualified candidates from running in upcoming elections, basically sweeping all prospective democratic candidates out of the door. But more worrying is a plot paving ways put more democratic activists under the National Security Law.

2/ As hawkish as it showed 4 years ago, this time Beijing even horrendously bypassed HK's judiciary and legislature when enforcing the order. It proved that Beijing is still very keen on going after the Pro-democratic camp and will not spare professional elites.

1/ National People Congress Standing Committee's decided to unseat 4 moderate lawmakers @AlvinYeungnk, @DrKwokKaKi, @KennethL_legco, and @cpdenniskwok came after the US election. This is a manifest declaration of Beijing to abandon the promises enshrined in the Joint Declaration.

6/ Apart from what the new administration should do, it's clear that HKers look forward to who the next Secretary of State will be and how the national security council is formulated. Even under same administration, @SecPompeo has placed more attention on HK than his predecessor.

7/ We hope the new administration understands the situation has changed dramatically in recent years, and it is impossible to turn back the clock. America should take the lead on protecting values that all democracies cherish.

@joshuawongcf
5/ Over the past decades, China has shown no respect for liberal values, international order and also its promise of the HK's autonomy & democracy. With its coercive diplomacy, China’s assertiveness increasingly threatens the economic & national security of the US and its allies.
112
@joshuawongcf
4/ HKers hope the US administration can revise the worsening situation in HK and should not underestimate Beijing’s intention to tighten its grip since #engagementpolicy with China or dialogue may not be effective enough to hold China accountable over its human rights violations.

@joshuawongcf
2/ Beijing has never stopped its crackdowns on HK’s liberty, from the arrests of tens of thousands of HK protesters, the appointment of party committee members to university board, to the recent launch of national security hotlines that encourages snitching on neighbors.

@joshuawongcf
3/ As far as I am aware, @KamalaHarris was also one of the co-sponsors of #HKHumanRightsandDemocracyAct. When Beijing started to use the new draconian law to arrest HK protesters, @JoeBiden condemned the repression and urged putting American values back to its foreign policy.

1/ To safeguard the city’s human rights and liberty, Hongkongers hope the new US administration can continue standing with HK and safeguarding our democratic values because supporting HK against suppressions is not a matter of left or right, but a matter of right or wrong.

Today is the 1st anniversary of #hkprotester #AlexChow’s death. While #Hongkongers commemorated him with flowers and candles, #hkpolice rushed to disperse mourners citing #nationalsecuritylaw.
Lest we forget.

Earlier this morning, #Thai people from all ages also appeared at today's rally to protest against the military-backed govt. "Let this end in grandma's generation," one of the ralliers said.

#Breaking: #Thaipolice just fired water cannons to attack #Thaiprotesters & press w/o warning
It's scandalously ironic when #Thaigov once described itself as “a land of compromise” and claimed "We love them all the same”.

The past eight years of my activism can be summed up in two protocols: Firstly, I believe hope can only exist when we insist on dreaming and fighting for it. Secondly, actions are and will always be a solution to an era in crisis.

PS This is the cover banner of Choy's social media account. It is doubtful whether our city still has #pressfreedom, and whether #Hongkongers still have the rights to seek truth.

5. While #Hkgov claims the new law only affects a small group of people, the reality is clearly the exact opposite. Under #CCP's tightening red line and its #wolfwarriordiplomacy, it becomes clear that the regime will stifle dissents with all weapons in its toolkits.
