HK$1million bounties were placed on Christopher Mung Finn Lau 劉祖廸 Nathan Law 羅冠聰 who all reside in the UK. The UK Gov must ensure their safety.

Protesters in Taiwan and Britain expressed their opposition to Hong Kong's new national-security law, carrying signs and shouting slogans that are now banned in Hong Kong reut.rs/43uxKL8

Good to see that Australia has followed through on updating their travel warnings in relation to #HongKong ’s Article 23 legislation.

Hong Kong’s reputation as an international city was founded on respect for the rule of law.

The new national security law will have far-reaching implications, further damaging the rights and freedoms enjoyed in the city.

Hong Kong: Statement by the High Representative on behalf of the European Union on the adoption of new national security legislation

Article 23 restricts fundamental freedom & strips due process rights making #HongKong less safe for residents & US businesses. Congress must pass the #HKETO Certification Act & the Administration sanction officials undermining the rule of law. See Chairs’ letter opposing Art. 23.

Hong Kong passes tough security law, which authorities say is needed for stability but critics fear will further erode civil rights bbc.in/3THGD0U

Additional draconian “security” law has been passed unanimously in Hong Kong as if we are in Beijing or North Korea. Rule of law is fully undermined in the once international city and financial centre. It is tough for Hongkongers, but many of us do persist.

Is Regina Ip obsessed with me? She first made up the allegation I hadn’t been in Hong Kong in years. I was there 3x in 2023. Now she criticizes me for being a “typical businessman” despite the fact I retired from Wall Street over a decade ago. Come on! globaltimes.cn/page/202403/13…

As a key diasporic Hong Kong media outlet, The Points 棱角 account was suspended three times by X while violating ZERO rule. I wonder how many accounts that refuse to kneel before Putin & Xi got “accidentally banned” by Elon Musk’s system.

Freedom of speech unless Musk allows?

BREAKING: Russian opposition politician and Putin critic Alexei Navalny has died, according to the Russian prison service.

I recommend the Department of State to:

1. TRAIN law enforcement to respond to transnational repression (TNR);

2. SANCTION perpetrators of TNR;

3. INVESTIGATE TNR against activists, especially cases in APEC;

4. UPGRADE DED to TPS to ensure Hong Kongers’ legal protection in the U.S.

Once again, the new legislation is for the security of the Chinese Communist Party only.
