2. I have previously been "wanted" for other cases, and obtained refugee status in the UK two years ago. These charges are classic examples of abusing the concept of "national security", pushing its definition to an extreme to suppress dissident voices.

2. The parent company of Apple Daily, Next Digital Limited, is a listed company. The govt forced a listed company to close itself in a matter of days, though signs have been there for months.
2. The CCP colluders are trying to silence the critics in YOUR country. It raises concerns over infiltration from the CCP into the US academics, and the societies in general. I am pleased that the school upholds the values of free speech and academic integrity.
2. The police arrested 55 democratic figures last month with the National Security Law due to their participation or organization of a primary election last July, preparing for the 2020 legislative council election. The election is postponed, and the candidates are being hunted.
2. Reasonable men would not expect Hong Kong can be liberated by "foreign forces." The fight for democracy relies on Hong Kong people's resistance and timely international pressures on the autocracy. "Hongkongers put their hopes in Washington" is not an accurate description.
2. Once again, It’s another blatant attack on the HK activists, whose wishes are solely bringing democracy to Hong Kong. Beijing never fulfilled their promises Rather, they have politically suppressed tens of thousands of protestors who are chanting for their legitimate claims.
2. I feel the pain when he made a brave decision, to turn himself to the police to prove that he is innocent -- even though he may face life-long imprisonment under the current draconian law.
2/5 One viral photo after another, we hail young protestors as fearless agents of change. We applaud, reshare, retweet. But this characterisation cannot be further from the truth.
2. Since 2014 I have experienced a lot of ups and downs: from student leader to a Legislative Council member, and from a prisoner to an international advocate, I have not for a moment betrayed Hong Kongers’ values and democratic aspirations.
2. Unlike previous meetings with top American government representatives, I enjoyed the opportunity to sit down and chat personally with Pompeo for over 20 minutes. We touched first and foremost on the latest threats of the new, Beijing-imposed National Security Law.
2. Then, just before touching touch some 12 hours later, I saw buildings of varying heights beneath a cloudless sky. In this strange land, I began planning for the life ahead of me. There remains so many uncertainties.
2. In any case, these sickening individuals have not deterred my support of the pro-democracy resistance in Hong Kong. The pursuit of justice and human rights shall persist despite all risks.
