HONG KONG - Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam on Tuesday added to a raft of attempts by local and Beijing officials to provide reassurance that proposed national security laws would not trample on the city’s rights and freedoms, amid widespread concerns.The comments came after Beijing unveiled plans last week for national security legislation for Hong Kong that aim to tackle secession, subversion and terrorist activities and could see Chinese intelligence agencies set up bases in the city.

Wait until when, the day after June the fourth?

Communist take over

She is a Communist liar

she is just a puppet like WHO.

Legend_mh9 The DETAIL is CCP can add whatever laws any time they like to HKers via this backdoor. No one can escape from their control.

Hong Kong has the rule of law. But hey, we can always ship you to the mainland where the CCP control the judiciary. In short, the Two Systems agreement is dead. Hong Kong’s special status must be revoked by the US.

Baaahaaa

No one know what she said is right or not, but what happening now is no doubt breaking Sino-British Joint Declaration, Basic Law and One country Two Systems. CCPSecuritylaw Please StandWithHongKong and BoycottChina

I doubt...

She is flushing HongKong down the drain

Protesters haven't even seen the proposed bill

Yep, irrational protesters haven't even see proposed bill

FreeHongKong HongKongNeedsHelp HongKongIndenpendence

carrielam CCPPuppet

Separatists doesn't deserve mercy.

Last time I check, she also says there’s no police brutality in HongKong.. also she’ll resign if majority of Hong Kong citizens are not happy with her performer.... so... liar

Only 9% HongKongers support Carrie Lam, the CCP puppet.

There will be a Chinese department stationed in HK which will arrest HK people for saying or doing what the government dislikes. We will suffer from brainwashing education and will not see books, tv programs, etc. reflecting diverse values from the CCP again! HK is no more HK.

we are very angry and depressed! our freedom of speech, participation in protests, rights to seek help from the international community , etc. all will be deprived of and taken away by the Chinese government.

Why anyone still listens to and trusts this woman is beyond me. A puppet with no soul and a full load of lies and self-contradictions.

Story.

Thou shall not arrest a terrorist

You lure and make it possible to target regular people as terroists

Fuck that! .

Butcher tells pigs to wait and see which knife he will use.

When CCP 1st said Wuhan virus not transmit human-to-human, u know who shouldn’t believe in

Last time I checked, taking away people's right to vote and to hold demonstrations is trampling on people's rights and freedoms.

HeikoMaas

This is what she's supposed to do to her superior, but instead... sigh

Xi security law will crash Tencent alibaba and yuan CNH. China 🇨🇳 offshore yuan CNH is down from 7.00 to 7.14

Hong Kong used to have the right to remembrance

She is right. Beijing aims at those riots who attack citizens. Security law will protect innocent people.

She has zero credibility

the people in Hong Kong want government legislation to restore normal life

Liar!‼︎

She’s weak. In China’s pocket

Would you trust a country that claims no one was killed in the Tiananmen Square incident?

Carrie Lam is intellectually dishonest

CarrieLam is a habitual liar! StandWithHongKong

StandWithHongKong 🇭🇰

I will be a reliable virtual assistant, data entry, web research, copy paste

might very well provide less than full cooperation to stem the pandemic of the century in the crass pursuit of its own interests. This may constitute biological warfare. But even if it doesn’t Xi should be brought to account for his other crimes against humanity.

You say it like you believe her

If so, why would they need such things? Joke ?

I will and never been believing her at all

I think any objective analysis of what's being proposed would suggest that she's talking nonsense. The new laws will quite clearly be used to lock up anyone that Beijing disagrees with and views as a threat.

JackGuetta Is this a joke? Keep lying, lying and lying. Please don't trust any communist government. Chinese style nationalsecuritylaw could ruin everything. It must ruin the status of International Financial Centre of hk by destroying freedom of people in hk

Really? CCP can add whatever laws any time they like to HKers via this backdoor. Nothing can stop CCPChina destorying HK.

Liar good joke

Under control

She got paid big bucks for that! Well done 👍

majority of HK believe that is true. If all rights preserve after 1997, then no reason to believe it is otherwise. If you do not break the law, life goes on in HK.

😂

Just like how they told us nothing will change for 50 years on 1997 July 1st. Believe in a hooker is much safer than believing in China.

I know, we have one time for freedom of speech.

She even told us she would listen to our voices!! Did she? ChinaLiedAndPeopleDied StandWithHongKong FiveDemandsNotOneLess

Full support !

She is lying.Let's see how nationalsecuritylaw in China affect people's freedom.

They lie!

If true then why does the Mainland need the law SO MUCH it risks: - violating international agreements - violating HK legal procedure - a popular civil uprising - a long term international backlash - consolidation of efforts against it It just doesn’t make sense.

So true, we've no freedom for quite a long time. But CCP & HKCommie OWN this city. Their rights & freedom for torture, interrogation & genocide under this evil aura of legitimacy ARE NOT affected.

Who would believe in this? She is just telling this to China. Btw Iran is the only country which openly supports China doing this security law. 🤦🏻

She knew she was lying. She also knew people knew she was lying, but she was still lying.

Yeah, NationalSecurityLaw will not affect Hong Kong’s freedoms and right. But only Carrie Lam thinks that. The stock market shows clearly it WILL.

electron314199 Joke of the day🥱

JessiePang0125 Nonsense bullshit, just like those come out from shameless CCP spokesperson.

China says no one died in TiananmenMassacre HongKong govt said, just a few years back, National Security Law is not suitable for HongKong under current law framework So what? They lie, always lie. And assume the world is stupid..

Carrie Lied🙅🏻‍♀️🙅🏻‍♀️🙅🏻‍♀️

She is right because Hong Kong citizens have no rights and freedoms anymore. ChinaVirus

What's a funny joke! The nationalsecuritylaw will surely affect HKers fredom, human rights , rule of law. All people know even herself. Please stop lying! It is disgusting StandWithHongKong

As there's no human rights and freedoms in the HKPoliceState? HKIndependence StandwithHK BoycottChina

请务必冲击驻港解放军营地，加大力度。

Carrie Lam must be Hong Kong's version of Nancy Pelosi.

Even the law is not yet implemented, when you criticize the government/ have different opinions from the govt & voice it out, all u get is beaten up by HongKongPolice / 'were committed suicide' / not allowed to protest etc.... Can u claim that u r still a free man 🤨😒

Bollocks

Cause the law is for CIA spies, not HK locals

She only serves for XiJinping CCP CCPChina. A woman with selection bias.

From 2008 Chinese milk scandal to Coronavirus, All previous examples told us that it's a lie

JessiePang0125 please note that she said, 'for the time being'..

What is the purpose of this security laws?

They’re in no positions to say people’s rights are affected or not. Rights and freedoms are neither lip services or verbal assurance. They should be instituted by the authority. What CCP is doing is threatening our ways of life and silencing dissenting voices

When even the words of Deng & Jiang do not count, who does she think she is? What hell of value is left in her account of personal credit?

CCP is a devil, demon and a great liar !

To be honest no one cares what a liar said... just like China claiming they have lower death number than the US 🙂

She must be kidding😑 Since June 2019, all of us are watching our the judicial system/city's rights or the freedoms in HK are deeply eroded by China & now we barely have none of these. How would National Security Laws safeguard our freedom here?

Who will still believe her, a habitual liar that the world had seen over the last 11 months. StandWithHongKong StandWithHK SOSHK

it is national security law, it affects only the freedom to seperate a country

Freedom

See Uyghurs in Xinjang. What a joke.

2 Million Hong Kong people march on the street and wanted Carrie Lam to step down but this shameless lady ignored the wishes of people. After the passage of the law, it would be illegal to request her to step down!! 🙄

Is it a joke?

Carrie Lam the puppet..

JessiePang0125 Gurl you ain’t fooling anyone

JessiePang0125 There must be someone in Greek mythology that speaks nothing but lies that they totally believe it? I mean, there has to be an archetype for a delusional liar this larger than life. StandWithHongKong

She is just doing as her masters tell her.

Similar to Wuhan coronavirus does not transmit among humans

Carrie Lam is a liar

Then nothing will.

More Lies!

1) She is a 'leader' appointed by China. Her approval rating has has sunk to a new low of just 9.1% in Feb 2020 2) No one, even the pro-establishment camp, believes in what she said 3) She said so only to please her boss, those from the North, but not on behalf of HKers

Yes like her family are all having British nation, once she mess-up the whole thing she can return to UK and enjoy life with family

Noone is safe under Xitler security law. PRC secret agents will lock you up before noticing. Use foreign dollars is also a treason StandwithHK

Does the HK leader's believe they're own bullshit because they seem to keep trying to serve it to people. Like why...... SMH

She also said she didn't help CCP to spread the virus via Hong Kong Airport, now the world has over 5 million patients.

OMG-OmniabsoluteGravitational-Constant: Thus China (Hong Kong & Taiwan) 🇨🇳. All need to upgrade, metamorphosize, inspirit & commend 🇺🇸USA's {Second Coming of Jesus Christ's ultimate & complete Consummation}. In this SpaceTime on Earth & all is well & satisfied until ETERNITY...

People are as free to love the CCP as they always were.

Remember that she said, bbc interview January, Emperor Xi promised her not gonna to tighten the the hongkong's autonomy. And Now what? Just few months ago. Does anyone really believe in what CCP saying?

She is a Leftist. She LIES by default.

hongKongindependence

Carrie Lam is LYING. If the Law pass, Chinese gov can define what is right, wrong, what is threatening their sovereignty etc. which turns HongKong society into RULE BY MAN. Security Laws will affect freedoms and rights definitely! 1country2systemsfailed HongKongNeedsHelp

Then why are the laws needed?

Excuse me if I take this with a grain of salt. The attitude & behavior of Lam & the HK police to date, tell a very different story. 🙄😥

Okay.

I don’t believe her one darn bit.

The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.

I think the citizens know better.

China said they are not the source of the virus

Carrie Lam is like Diarrhea. She keeps spilling her REFUSE WITHOUT NOTICE on the people of Hong Kong

Communist China lied. People died.

Today’s joke: the CCP security law will not damage human right

Sure and all that military in tiananmen square years ago where just there for a party not for killing their own citizens.

Do you believe that?

So, what's the point of having the law?

Do you believe? They've promised NO changes in 50 years.

Did the CCP write that headline?

Carrie Lam is Lying What’s the NationalSecurityLaw StandWithHongKong

So that means it does! Just confirming, that’s all!

Good joke.

I’m from China, I’ve seen this episode before... By Hong Kong elites blaming 'liberal studies', what Hong Kong elites are really doing is kow-towing to Beijing thus undermining the constitutional principle that see the governance of Hong Kong as being 'one country, two systems'. Remove the scholars, deny science, and voila you have a dictatorship. Does this sound familiar, USA?
