Ted Hui Granted a Visit to Australia as an Exemption Under the Pandemic
A former legislative council member Ted Hui, who fled Hong Kong to the UK through Denmark in December last year, has relocated to Australia on Mar 9 to continue his job at international lobbying. During an interview with local media, Hui thanked the Australia government’s help to allow his visit to the country as an exemption under the closed border situation. He was allowed to board on an Australian citizens-only flight from London to Australia. According to ABC News, Hui was the first Hong Kong activist to be granted a visit to Australia since the pandemic. A response from the Minister for Immigration, Alex Hawke, was still pending.
An Australian local media reported that Hui was granted a 12-month tourist visa. He arrived in Australia on Mar 9 morning and will self-quarantine for 14 days in a hotel. Antony Dapiran, an Australian lawyer in Hong Kong, said that Hui’s move will be welcomed by the dissidents in Hong Kong but will be criticised by the Beijing government.
