"There is a possibility... of the central people's government authorising Hong Kong law enforcement bodies, such as the police, to enforce the law," Mr Leung told Reuters in an interview.
He noted that the British had a Special Branch in Hong Kong to deal with national security threats, dismantled before Hong Kong was returned to Chinese rule in 1997. "All jurisdictions in the world, including the ones in the West, have laws that protect national security," Mr Leung said.Protesters wears face masks, as a precautionary measure against the COVID-19 coronavirus, during a rally in Hong Kong.
This law will take away the freedom and autonomy of HK and is a blatant violation of the Joint Declaration. HK will be under authoritarian rule and every citizen will not be safe anymore, the evil hands of the CCP is no longer invis, criticizing the Party may get you vanished.
Coup ! RIP HK
Who cares about China or Chinese....let them fck their own after fcking the world!
Western countries can pack up all their offices and walk away from HK and not be part of assisting CCP becoming any stronger.
Good these rioters have themselves to blame. There has been no national security laws since 1997 and having one will stop US meddling. The law will stop the riots and preserve the one nation two systems they now have.
I retweet this because this is the first time saw this.
Really hope HK can back to before, we used to enjoy our business trip in there every year. People can have any kind of demands, but DO it in right way are very basic rule. Set fires on street and destroy public transportation are not right things to do.
Here comes the shooting!!!
Xi, the dictator is always watching you. When you using Huawei equipment and TikTok. Beware of China! Chinazi CCP_is_terrorists
Short list of people prosecuted under China's own national security law: - Liu Xiaobo (inciting subversion, 11 years) - Ilham Tohti (separatism, life sentence) - Wu Gan (subversion, 8 years) - Wang Quanzhang (subversion, 4.5 years) - Lee Ming-che (subversion, 5 years)

Australia, UK, Canada rebuke China over Hong Kong interventionThe three countries warned China's planned laws forbidding treason, secession, sedition, and subversion against the Central People's Government in Beijing would 'clearly undermine' Hong Kong's autonomy and its citizens' civil liberties. Do you understand now to whom ComradeDan is selling Victoria? I'm pretty sure we have laws forbidding treason, secession, sedition, and subversion... Its hard for some to accept, but HK is part of China. Rioting and vandalism in the name of 'democracy' (which was non existant under British colonial rule) is no longer allowed. Fair enough Thank you Australia.

'Prevent, stop and punish': China's new Hong Kong sedition laws spark backlashBeijing is set to establish new national security agencies and introduce a raft of tough new laws against dissent in Hong Kong as it attempts to wipe out protests in the Chinese territory. Prevent China from ending One Country Two Systems. Stop China from turning Hong Kong into a Tiananmen-style bloodbath. Punish China if it does either of the first two. Good, it is time to stop these rioters as they are destroying the one country two systems.
