Mr Chung was held by police until his appearance in court on Thursday morning and has therefore been unable to comment on whether he was planning to seek sanctuary.Asylum claims to the US usually have to be made on arrival in the country or via a United Nations refugee referral programme.
China bypassed Hong Kong's legislature to impose the new security law, keeping its contents secret until it was introduced.Along with mass arrests and an anti-coronavirus ban on public gatherings it has largely succeeded in stamping out mass protests and dissent. A small but growing number of Hong Kongers have fled the city since Beijing's crackdown on democracy protesters.Critics say the law's broad wording criminalises certain peaceful political views and delivers a hammer blow to the semi-autonomous city's freedoms.
He is the 2nd ppl to be charged under NSL. HKPolice plans to launch a new national security hotline to gather intelligence from the public via SNS. It means everyone can become Tony since this law cover worldwide. Please remain attention to him. FreeTonyChung Save12hkyouths

He should not be arrested in the first place just because he exercises the freedom of speech. We demand HKPF to release TonyChung at once. FreeTonyChung StandWithHongKong
Jailed for words. He’s just a kids who bravely spoke out what he believes in.

Hong Kong under nationalsecuritylaw is crazy, out anti-government speech could be a crime which results in years of jail. StandWithHongKong
CCP is so afraid of brave students & youths who stand against them & protect their right of free speech. This evil party, puppet HK gov, its watchdog HK police are killing the freedom of HK ppl, destroying HK future. CCP must be sanctioned i& eliminated. standwithhk
He faces secession charge because of social media post... sometimes I think I am back to cultural revolution
CCP is terrorizing the HongKongers by arresting & prosecuting a young man who simply posted a few Fb posts. It thinks that such action is powerful enough to subvert a state ... It reflects the ultimate fear of authoritarianism --- free speech & free thought standwithHongKong
He was not allowed to bail. That mean he has to be detained for 3 months before trials. I’m not optimistic about his case because Beijing can “explain” the new law in any way they want.
Hope the int’l community could realise that Communist China will only keep spreading its authoritarianism not only in Hong Kong but also around the world... We need global solidarity & actions to defend universal values. FreeTonyChung StandWithHongKong
He's a promising future leader. There's absolutely no reason for the Hong Kong government to arrest him. FreeTonyChung SOSHK

The start of cultural revolution 2.0 in the name of “National security Law” Chinazi
Illegal arrest of 3 dissidents as the 12 youths needed to be save. CCP is worser than Nazi and ISIS to kidnapping and making genocide step by step. Whole world 7 billions must stand together to exterminate CCP asap for own safety.
Another kidnapping in HongKong. The 12 HK youths are not come back yet, the CCP kidnapped another 3 HK kids. That provide that HK is totally dead. The CCP is using NationalSecurityLaw to do anything in HK. Hope the world can StandWithHongKong. save12hkyouths FreeTonyChung
Chung has to be detained until January before he is called to court again, whilst pro-ccp thugs were repeatedly granted bail. Obvious political prosecution and proving the non-existent rule of law in HK. FreeTonyChung
This is ridiculous a 19-year-old boy can subvert the power of CCP, totally nonsense to detain Tony Chung. Is CCP that fragile? StandWithHongKong FreeTonyChung
What does this tell you about the regime where a 19 year old can be charged with secession? What did he even do?
Tony Chung should be released as accusations are unreasonable. Law is genuinely a tool for political persecution and silencing variety of voices. They are coming for everyone. FreeTonyChung
The old ruling men of China are on their way out. Gone to be ruled by a new enlightened generation. They will not relinquish power easily.
Anti China.... you will find he is a puppet of the US regime
