SYDNEY - Australia is actively considering providing safe haven to Hong Kong residents in response to China's sweeping new security law, it said Thursday, a move likely to further inflame tensions with Beijing.
Hong Kong was under UK jurisdiction until Britain handed it back to China in 1997 with a guarantee that Beijing would preserve the city's judicial and legislative autonomy for 50 years. Morrison said no final decision had been made on how Australia's arrangements would be structured but the country was "prepared to step up and provide support" to Hong Kong residents.
Most recently, Australia enraged China by calling for an independent investigation into the origins of the coronavirus pandemic.

Pag ang highly talented at may skills... mag oofer talaga ang mga bansang ito. Pag walang silbi, dadaan ka muna sa butas ng karayom
It' good to hear that Australia is being part of the scene.
Hongkexit is happening.
Sana pati sa mga Pinoy. 😓
