홍콩 항쟁, 그 영향력은 이미 홍콩 내부의 알력싸움이 아니게 되었다. 전 세계 시민사회의 발전 과정 속에서 홍콩의 중요성은 이미 우리가 간과해서는 안 되는 것이 된 것이다. 우리 더더욱 힘을 냅시다! facebook.com/joshuawongchif…

More on the nation-state framework's flaws: putting countries above peoples replicates unequal power relations. It legitimizes authoritarian regimes that pretend to speak for their subjects and, in cases like China, that claim territories over which they have no actual control. twitter.com/wilfredchan/st…

3/ The three, whose names were given as Tom, Jackson and Ivan, claimed the abuse happened while they were on remand at Pik Uk Correctional Institution in Sai Kung over charges relating to the anti-government movement.

4. No scientific proof: WHO experts said board population testing is costly & unrealistic, while health minister of Taiwan also said universal testing is not practical to block sources of infection and stressed the importance of border closures instead.

[@1843mag: Gaming with Joshua Wong]
1/ Wong lives and breathes politics – even in his choice of video game. After his release from prison in 2017, he posted a picture of himself playing “Gundam Versus”, which came out while he was inside, alongside a caption, “Let’s battle”.

4.4/ Nevertheless, the coronavirus does not kill the movement, but rather adds more fuels to the public anger. According to Reuters' poll, support for protesters has grown even though rallies pause. More people demand our city leader to step down, from 57% in Dec to 63% in March.

7/ The national security law, imposed on Tues, is the most radical shift in how Hong Kong is run since it was handed back to China by Britain in 1997. Under the handover deal, Beijing promised Hong Kong could keep key civil liberties, as well as judicial and legislative autonomy.

@joshuawongcf
8/ We also attend court hearings to support protestors facing trials, and do frequent prison visits, and write letters to protesters in detention. These virtues gave so much empowerment to the mass public who might not be able to serve on the forefront of the escalating protests.

I will deliver my speech on "Fighting for Democracy – From the Battlegrounds of Hong Kong". While Beijing tried to introduce the evil national security law in HK, now is the critical moment to seek for those international alliances to stand with HKers.

Some have criticized me for singling him out over the past year. Of course police brutality is structural. But don't forget: He and others like him enjoy the very rights back home that they are working so hard to deny Hong Kongers here. twitter.com/joshuawongcf/s…

3/ It is expected the court would clarify and regulate the current practice of political vetting in elections shall leave granted tomorrow.

10/ As media reports, there are at least 7 re-education camps located all along the highway from the Turpan airport to Shanshan desert where the filming took place. Turpan was also the first documented case that political indoctrination was used against Uyghurs by the authority.

@joshuawongcf
11/ According to the 2019 Report on International Religious Freedom published by the U.S. Department of State, over a million of Uighurs, ethnic Kazakhs, Hui, members of other Muslim groups and some Uighur Christians were detained in internment camps in Xinjiang and...

2/ In July 2019, the @Europarl_EN passed a resolution on the situation in HK & called for the EU, its Member States & international community to impose "appropriate export control mechanisms to deny China, & in particular, HK, access to technologies used to violate basic rights."

1.3/ To retain his reputation and erase China's bad image, state-run media in China have been projecting China as the global hero with extreme nationalist colour in the past few weeks. Therefore, helping Italy is just part of a bigger plan.

@joshuawongcf
4/ As our voices may not be unheard soon, we hope the EU could have a more comprehensive review of the human rights conditions and safety in HK.

@joshuawongcf
14/ It's of vital importance that we acknowledge coronavirus is not an excuse for xenophobia & definitely not a substantial excuse to attack anyone. The most frightening part of current epidemic is not virus itself, but the fear & hatred that is caused by false rumours & biases.

6/ Wong steered clear of any mention of sanctions in his remarks on Monday, instead of sticking to more general comments about not turning a blind eye to what is happening in Hong Kong. “We also encourage the global community to let our voice be heard around the world,” he said.

3/ Also, Xi praises the superiority of the authoritarian regimes over democracies through propaganda programmes, and bends international communities to his political will. In other words, the authoritarian threat is at their doorstep, which is why they stand with Hong Kong.

2/ It overrode the local courts’ interpretation and rulings, supervise HKgov’s policing, collect intelligence and intervene in Hong Kong affairs directly. Beyond any doubt, the law will punch a hole in the city’s independent judicial system.

Joshua Wong questioned the effectiveness of the spending: “I have 514,429 followers on Twitter, while @Brand_HK Kong only has 4,500. I don’t really know where they have spent their money,” he said.

3. By putting “eyes and ears everywhere”, the hotline can also be used for business retaliation, by encouraging citizens snitching on each other & cooking up charges against business competitors, just like what happened during #China’s #CulturalRevolution. wsj.com/articles/in-si…

@joshuawongcf
3/ According to the Australian Strategic Policy Institute, the Turpan Municipal Bureau of Public Security is responsible for running at least 14 re-education camps in the area "to extrajudicially detain minorities."
