Hong Kong security law: China passes controversial legislation - BBC News

China has passed a controversial security law giving it new powers over Hong Kong, deepening fears for the city's freedoms, the BBC has learned.

Last month China stunned the city when it said it would criminalise any act of secession, subversion, terrorism or collusion with foreign forces.

The move came after angry protests last year - sparked by another law - which became a pro-democracy movement.

Critics say this new law poses an even greater threat to Hong Kong's identity.

They warn it will undermine Hong Kong's judicial independence and destroy the city's unique freedoms, not seen on mainland China.

Hong Kong was handed back to China from British control in 1997, but under a special agreement that guaranteed certain rights for 50 years.

So the law has drawn harsh international condemnation and also sparked demonstrations in Hong Kong ever since it was announced by Beijing in May.

A draft of the law was not made public before it was pushed through, which means most people in the city will not have seen details of the measures they now have to abide by.

China says the law is needed to tackle unrest and instability in the city and rejects criticism as interference in its affairs.



What does the new law do?

China has not officially confirmed the law has been passed, but the BBC has been told that it went through unanimously in a session of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress in Beijing.

It is expected to be added to Hong Kong's Basic Law later in the day and comes a day before the 23rd anniversary of the handover from Britain to China - a date usually marked by pro-democracy protests.

It would make criminal any act of secession, subversion of the central government, terrorism and collusion with foreign or external forces.

A new national security office in Hong Kong would deal with national security cases, but would also have other powers such as overseeing education about national security in Hong Kong schools.

In addition, the city will have to establish its own national security commission to enforce the laws, with a Beijing-appointed adviser.

"o thanks xi/xir, can we have some more of ur pinky-sized penis in our butthole?"
 
It's very sad. If we had balls the free world would take back HK and unite it with Taiwan.... for forever.
The free world needs to stop doing business with the modern ccp slave owners and any other corrupt communist government. Capitalism needs to be governed by humane 'our constitution like' rules and that precludes doing business with dictator communists.
 
Hong Kong has no guns so China will win.

Why didn't they allow their citizens to have guns when they had autonomy? Such a dumb mistake.
 



He picked a good day to do that... I guess?
Not sure when that second video was filmed though.
 
Yeah, Hong Kong and Shenzhen would have been nice to see.

But you'd lose quite a bit of weight if you stayed there very long, because you'd be best to just live on plain rice. Gutter oil, yum.
