Article 38 of the National Security Law extends Beijing’s jurisdiction to the entire world

Speaking of the Hong Kong national security law, Chen Ming-tong noted that article 38, which extends the law to cover offences outside Hong Kong by those other than its permanent residents, essentially provides for universal jurisdiction.

In addition, given the provisions of article 29, an American will find himself in breach of the law should they criticize Beijing, thereby inciting 'hatred' from Hong Kong citizens towards the regime and may result in ‘serious consequences’, even if they do so in the US.

‘I wonder if this is some fiat of a celestial empire by which all of humanity is bound. This is no longer just something that should concern Hong Kong or, indeed, Taiwan. The world must come wide awake to this law, a law we really should be confronting in all seriousness,’ said Chen.

Under the National Security Law, advice from a Taiwanese...

(2 Jul) 🌿There are no greetings today. It's a bit heavy today:
Please don't hold back, talk to your family. If your elders are supporters of Mayor Han [Kuo-yu], don't risk transitting through Hong Kong because those wearing the [Taiwanese] #NationalFlag will encounter trouble!

📍Article 38 of the Hong Kong national security law states:
"This Law shall apply to offences [under this Law committed against the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region] #FromOutsideTheRegion [by a person who is] #NotAPermanentResidentOfTheRegion."

📍Yesterday, a Hongkonger was arrested for holding "the national flag of the Republic of China🇹🇼".
