One of the largest circulating newspaper in Hong Kong and the biggest pro democracy media may shut down this Friday. The existential crisis of @appledaily_hk brought by NSL will have a lasting impact of other smaller pro democracy outlets. This is serious. twitter.com/tinssoldier/st…

Pro-democracy shops in Hong Kong supporting @appledaily_hk by offering the news outlet's employees free meals.

Resistance is still alive and strong at the community level.

Apple Daily newspaper has enough cash on hand to continue operating as normal only for a couple of weeks, according to a person familiar, after authorities used a sweeping national security law to freeze company assets and arrest top editors and executives.bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Spying and snitching on your colleagues, neighbours, friends and family. A common tactic Communist regime use to stifle opposition and generate fear and distrust. Despicable yet very effective. But we must keep calm and carry on. twitter.com/maryhui/status…

The @StateDeptSpox said the US was deeply concerned by HK authorities' selective use of NSL to arbitrarily target media organizations. The charges of collusion with a foreign country to endanger national security appear to be entirely politically motivated reuters.com/world/asia-pac…

The flag on the wall says “100% freedom”
Those arrested for violating the National Security Law🇨🇳 today could face jail terms from 10 years to life in prison.

This is not rule of law but #RulebyLaw

This is yet another crackdown on the press freedom in Hong Kong. The National Security Law is not a law to achieve "security", but only to turn Hong Kong into an Orwellian state. The international community must not turn a blind eye to this.
