@ kimjongl - 13.06.20 - 08:29am If the world could unite against China they wouldn't be able to do sh*t, either with their economy built on a foundation of sand or their paper military. The key is the rest of the world uniting against them, which I don't hold out much hope for. You have said some stupid things in the past but this.. lol. Any move towards this would just cause WW3. |

Anyone who believes WW3 is likely to break out not just in this situation but in any conflict situation throughout the world is an outright r*tard. Just like the people who believed it about the Iranian general earlier this year.

What is Hong Kongs national security law?[Chinese legislators are expected to discuss a new law concerning Hong Kongs national security at the upcoming parliamentary session. The law would ban all seditious activities aimed at toppling the central government and external interference in the citys affairs, as well as target terrorist acts in the special administrative region, sources say. Here is a rundown of the background of the issue. Hong Kong democrats bash national security law from Chinas two sessions, US also voices concern. What does Hong Kong need a national security law for and why does it not have one? Under Article 23 of the Basic Law, or the citys mini-constitution, the Hong Kong government must enact its own national security law prohibiting acts of treason, secession, sedition, subversion against the central peoples government, or theft of state secrets and to prohibit political organisations or bodies of the region from establishing ties with foreign political organisations or bodies. In 2003, the Hong Kong government was forced to shelve a national security bill after an estimated half a million people took to the streets to oppose the legislation, which they warned would curb their rights and freedoms The Hong Kong government has steered clear of introducing the legislation. After the 2014 Occupy Central protests, Hong Kongs pro-Beijing politicians urged the city administration to consider reviving the Article 23 bill. National Peoples Congress deputy Stanley Ng Chau-pei had suggested incorporating mainland China security laws into the Basic Law |

Essentially they want to impose the same regulation initated since 2014, which will give Beijing leverage to suppress protestors and prevent them receiving external support from foreign entities. This will have the dual effect of both suppressing dissent from protestors while also effectively labelling them as a terrorist organization in the event they continue their criticism and/or receive outside support.

But that's not the end. There are strikes being organized and supported by 23 pro-democracy labour unions, with more than 10,000 members spanning across 20 industries, including aviation, transport, construction, and information technology. Among the groups are the Union for New Civil Servants, led by Labour Department officer Michael Ngan Mo-chau; Hong Kong Aviation Staff Alliance and Citybus Limited Employee Union, all created during a wave of unionisation that emerged from the protests which erupted in June last year in response to the now-withdrawn extradition bill. Hong Kong will not doubt descend into chaos following the 20th of June after Tropical cyclone nuri passes. |

The arrests of the suspects, aged 16 to 21, in Yuen Long, Sha Tin and Tuen Mun marked the first such crackdown on anti-government activists not at the scene of street protests. |

They are essentially arresting people outside of protests on open ground for staging protest against the Hong Kong government and for advocating a republic of Hong kong which violates Article 20 and Article 21 of the National security bill. In other words; they are suppressing all forms of protests and demonstrations against the system using this Beijing imported bill as justification. |
