Chinese Professor Lists "Reporting Crime to the Natioanl Security Bureau" in her CV
Wei Li works as an assistant professor at the Department of Politics and Administration of the Chinese University of Hong Kong (#CUHK) in Hong Kong. Her controversial behaviour has been reported by the media since the Anti-ELAB Movement in 2019.
Previously, Li has made comments against the pro-democracy protests. She, for instance, criticised students protesting against the #NationalSecurityLaw as "wasting time, shortening life span".
Li also openly mentioned her "consumption" of the food offerings from the pro-democracy protesters to the deceased. In a Facebook group, Li claimed to have taken the food away from the altar set up by protesters, arousing the discontent in the community.
Recently, she mentioned in her academic CV on the university's webpage that she has been reporting "law-breaking incidents" and advicing the National Security Police Department.
In January 2021, a video went viral on the Internet, capturing a 39-year-old woman argueing with a MTR staff after she was caught using a senior transport card. It was reported that Wei Li was that woman.

Uneasy and Puzzled, Student Politicism 'Testing the Bottom Line', Wong Yat-chin: Imprisonment is my Atonement
Translated by Guardians of Hong Kong , November 10, 2021 • 1 December 2021
In one whole year after the National Security Law (NSL) took effect the civilian society slipped into a panic state with political figures continually got arrested or left Hong Kong while political parties and organizations got disbanded. Among this misery, Student Politicism (SP) was established in May 2020 when the National Congress was about to pass the NSL bill. Within only one year WONG Yat-chin, the convenor, was already arrested for four times - the latest two within only a week in June. SP suddenly becomes one of the “most upfront” political organizations.

Two Year-mark of #NationalSecurityLaw and 25th Anniversary of the #TransferOfSovereignty: 126 People Charged, 83 in Detention and 63 Involved in Literary Inquisition
Two years ago on July 1, 2020, the National Security Law imposed by Beijing without passing through Hong Kong's legislature was enforced in the city. Authorties in Hong Kong and China claimed that the criminalisation of speech would not happen and the law would "only affect a small number of people". They also claimed that the rights and freedom of Hong Kong people will not be affected.
As of June 29, 2022, however, at least 198 people have been arrested for "violating national security" in the past two years. Among them 126 people and 5 companies — including #AppleDaily, #StandNews and the #Alliance — were prosecuted. 83 of them have been taken into custody and more than half have been detained for more than one year. The longest period of detention is 660 days and is still counting.
Among these cases, almost the entire pro-democracy camp has been "locked up" due to the primary election. Pro-democracy and independent news outlet like Apple Daily and Stand News were shut down; meanwhile, court procedures are progressing very slowly.
This marks the 25 years since the #1997TransferOfSovereignty of Hong Kong to China.

[Editor’s Note: Compared to the commonly used term “handover”, the term “Transfer of Sovereignty of Hong Kong to China” conveys aptly the complexity of multi-sided perspectives that is the “handover”, and shows as much neutrality regarding the issue at the whole.

Chinese Communist Leader VS British Royal Visits to Hong Kong
On June 30, 2022, Chinese Communist party (#CCP) leader #XiJinping visited Hong Kong on the 25th aaniversary of the transfer of soveignty of Hong Kong. He was received by officials of the Hong Kong SAR and the so-called "citizens representatives". Meanwhile, roads were blocked around "important locations", and a massive number of police were deployed. July 1 also marks two year since Beijing's enforcement of the #NationalSecurityLaw in Hong Kong.
This is very different from even the British royal visits to Hong Kong before 1997, as shown in the RFA video.
