      #Breaking thread: Official doc of #HongKong national security law resolution revealed by souces - the new law will prohibit secession, subversion of state power, terrorism & foreign interference. It'll be listed under annex 3 of basic law, bypassing scrutiny of local legislature.pic.twitter.com/nAqX4lenlY

      More to come apart from the law: - Chinese national security institutions will set up apparatus in #HongKong according to "needs", so do the HK govt. - Hong Kong Chief Executive has to promote and push for national security education and hands in report to central govt regularly.

      About #Article23: It states that #HongKong should complete its own legislation ASAP in accordance to Basic Law to safeguard national security (aka Article 23). Administrative, Legislative & JUDICIAL institutions should prevent, curb & punish acts which harm national security.

      Latest: "#Article23 has been severely demonised in #HongKong. In fact it's very difficult to complete its enactment which is at risk of being shelved for a long period of time." Deputy head of Chinese parliament Wang Chen announced the national security law resolution in Beijing.pic.twitter.com/JNMwFxxGEp

      It is an explicit reason behind the new national security law. Because Beijing has found it almost impossible to secure 2/3 votes in #HongKong's legislature to pass Article 23. In other words, they realise that there's no way to win HongKongers' hearts or they're not intended to.

      NPP Chairperson Regina Ip, then-Secretary for Security who failed to push for #Article23 in 2003 responded, "Beijing's decision is acceptable & understandable because #HongKong has been a loophole for national security." Ironically she failed the mission again as a lawmaker.pic.twitter.com/WJ0RLgBWys

      Believe it or not? HKMAO statement: "The #NationalSecurityLaw won't affect the rights & freedoms enjoyed by #HongKong residents - including freedom of assembly, speech & press - but allows people to better exercise their legal rights & liberties in a free & safe environment."pic.twitter.com/1wWILiBROq

          @joshuawongcf on @dwnews: "Before #NationalSecurityLaw is passed in Beijing, we must gather ppl on the street again, no matter to mobilise ppl to take to the street or continue international advocacy. We hope international community to stand w/ #HongKong."https://youtu.be/S2Ti0-sYOhs

          Carrie Lam and her whole cabinet showed up in solidarity with National Security Law. She said there's no detail about the clauses and implementation yet, claiming #HongKong's judicial independence won't be affected.pic.twitter.com/w43387GobQ
