I was again named by the HK govt top officials, including SS Chris Tang and Commissioner of Police, that my remark in #SummitForDemocracy violates the NSL and now am a “Class A wanted criminal.”
Campaigning for human rights is “secession” and “subversion” by Beijing’s definition.

I’ve repeatedly stated it: Hong Kong protestors fight against the dictatorial PRC regime, not the Chinese people. We stand in solidarity with brave dissidents in China and overseas. We have the same demands – to elect govts leaders, and determine our futures.

The world needs the voice and passion of the youth to make changes possible. Thanks to all of you who’ve been fighting for the freedom of Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the world.

Another angle: What has this kid done wrong to be pointed by a mad police?
Fighting for Hong Kong’s future. Truly a sad and heartbreaking story.

4. As a global-facing activist, the choices I have are stark: to stay silent from now on, or to keep engaging in private diplomacy so I can warn the world of the threat of Chinese authoritarian expansion. I made the decision when I agreed to testify before the US Congress.

7. I really love Hong Kong: its terrain, its culture, its vibe. But what I most love are Hong Kongers’ values and the future of its every inhabitant. What I now face is far greater than my own gains and losses. The price of displacement is what I’m willing to pay.

1. It is vital that democratic countries offer meaningful help to support our movement. Implementing concrete policies is key.
That's why I've written to the newly re-elected NZ Prime Minister @jacindaardern to recommend a New Zealand lifeline scheme for HK protestors.

2. At the @HouseForeign hearing yesterday, I spoke about the regime's lawlessness in hopes that the world would not forget about what's going on in Hong Kong. Of course, I knew my speech and appearance would put my own safety in serious jeopardy given the circumstances.

//While civil society has been providing medical and other kinds of support to the elderly and the underprivileged, Hong Kong's government has taken advantage of the concern and confusion caused by coronavirus to stab its citizens in the back.//

It's a political show trial.
The right to a jury trial is denied. The government handpicked the judges. The judicial system in Hong Kong is weaponized to suppress.

It's not the protesters who don't want to organize peaceful demonstrations, it's the police who started to shot tear gas to disperse the legitimate and authorized assembly immediately after people had gathered. The police only want blood.

Many told me that in #Yangon tonight there are more shootings and military presence than before. Hope we can continue to pay attention to the protests and pray for the freedom loving people there.
The world should act immediately.

Hong Kong govt is enacting "Emergency Law" which grants them unlimited power. After the "anti-mask law", we can expect the denial of internet access, prolonged detention, restrict freedom of movement etc. draconian laws coming from them.
Communists want war, not peace.

In London, Bristol, Manchester, and many cities that Hongkongers congregate in the UK, rallies were held to express solidarity with journalists in Hong Kong and support press freedom.
We are here to remind everyone how fragile freedoms are and the need to defend them by actions.

The police are arresting school kids on the way to their school. They are destroying our next generations.

China has been threatening the global order and the liberal values that we all share. Your freedom is at risk. Supporting Hong Kong means supporting the global fight to preserve our universal values.

Many don't understand the Chinese authority's mentality. Complying with them makes them think that you are weak -- only deterrence can stop CCP's threats.
For them, every policy is for domestic consumption. Don't act in a way CCP can claim a clear victory.

The experience of Taiwan in fighting the pandemic is invaluable. It's unthinkable that Taiwan is excluded from sharing its expertise with allies because of the political blackmail from CCP. Thug politics overrode saving lives - It's unacceptable.
#LetTaiwanHelp. They deserve it.

It’s my honor to receive the award of ÚSTR Award for Freedom, Democracy and Human Rights from The Institute for the Study of Totalitarian Regimes.
The Czech people had suffered the horror of Communist autocracy and we fight for freedom together.

Let me make it clear: internet is a creation that encourages freedom. It's born free. Government like China uses it to control people while the industry work with them to restrain freedom in the WESTERN WORLD.
It's complete violation of what gaming supposed to be.

Nathan:
The future looks like very grim or bleak.
But I think the situation is always very dynamic. Beijing is always suffering from numerous pressure, no matter domestically or internationally.
I don't feel like we are entirely hopeless now.
