Unprecedented: HK Government Cancels Teacher's Registration, Due to Pro-independemce Accusation
The Hong Kong's Education Bureau announced on Oct 5, 2020 that 247 complaints of "professional misconduct" of teachers have been reported from June 2019 to August 2020.
The Bureau has so far completed investigation on 204 of the complaints. One teacher has been disqualified due to severe professional misconduct. The bureau claimed that the teacher had "designed teaching syllabus, material and worksheets that promotes Hong Kong Independence”. It was reported that the teacher worked at Alliance Primary School in Kowloon Tong.
On Sept 9, 2019, China-funded newspaper Ta Kung Pao posted a worksheet from the said primary school. In the worksheet titled “Do not cross the red line”, students were asked to comment on issues like Hong Kong Independence, freedom of speech, and what can possibly happen to Hong Kong without freedom of speech. It was also reported that students were also asked to watch an interview of Hong Kong National Party Founder Chan Ho-tin by RTHK which discussed Hong Kong Independence for in-class discussion. Students were not asked to bring any material home.

#Taiwan President on Taiwan's National Day: The Year 2020 is a "Generational Opportunity" and a "Chance to determine own Future"
Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen delivered her speech celebrating the National Day of the Republic of China (#ROC) on Oct 10, 2020.
Tsai emphasized that Taiwan was one of the few countries in the world that maintained positive economic growth despite the coronavirus pandemic.
Tsai raised concern over Hong Kong's National Security Law and pointed out that "it is clear that democracy, peace and prosperity in the Indo-Pacific are currently facing serious challenges".
While Taiwan-US economic cooperation is expected to be deepened, Tsai said Taiwan-China dialogue would be possible "as long as the Beijing authorities are willing to resolve antagonisms and improve cross-strait relations, while parity and dignity are maintained".
Tsai ended her speech by the following remark:
“Let's wish that 20 years from now, when Taiwanese look back on 2020, they will remember this as the year we grasped a generational opportunity, bravely forging ahead in rapidly changing times to overcome challenges and throw off our shackles, giving them a chance to determine their own future."

Australia Hiring Additional Mandarin-speaking Manpower For “Foreign Intervention Cases”
The relation between China and Australia remains tense. In an interview from The Australian, the Chief of the Australian Federal Police (AFP) Reece Kershaw stated that they would be hiring more Mandarin-speaking staff to handle foreign interference cases. Besides, he said that the AFP was also hiring some language graduates and Chinese-Australians for these “new and complex” cases.
Besides the transnational or organised crime, the AFP also needs to handle the missions of protecting national safety. Facing the intensified conflict between China and Australia, “We are facing the well-trained high-tech people… the challenge for such criminals is how to bring intelligence to evidence.” said Kershaw, who had just been the Chief for a year in the interview by The Australian.
He stated that there were 65 detectives in charge with foreign intervention at the moment but that AFP still had inadequate in detectives who know Chinese. As a result, he would continue to employ related staff, “Our team needs to be more diverse, similar to the Australia society, but we are not there yet”.
Kershaw disclosed that he asked the FBI for assistance last year, the bureau provided detailed training materials for the federal police, to help with the investigation which involving the crimes of violations of the Foreign Intervention Law passed in 2018. Among them, there was a joint action between the AFP and NSW police, raided Labour MP Shaoquett Moselmane and his office part-time assistance John Zhang involving in the Chinese Communist Party’s infiltration incident. Zhang was even accused of participating in the CCP’s united front training in 2013, hiding his identity from his boss, and influencing his boss wit improper means.

Tibetan-American Policeman Arrested, Long Suspected of Infiltrating Tibetan Community in New York for China

Tibetan-American Policeman Arrested, Long Suspected of Infiltrating Tibetan Community in New York for China
Tibetan-American New York City Police Officer Baimadajie Angwang was arrested in late September on suspicion of being an agent for the Chinese government. This incident shocked the Tibetan community in New York. A Tibetan said Angwang does not know the Tibetan language well, told numerous lies, and had never even revealed his actual name. As a liaison between the Tibetan community and the law enforcement authorities, Anwang was welcomed by the community at first. As he acted suspiciously, however, the community became alert to his presence.
According to a member of the Tibetan community, Angwang first met them in January last year. Back then, he introduced himself as Ngawang Dhargyal in the Tibetan language, claiming that he had come from the Gyalrong region on the border of Tibet and Sichuan. Angwang had frequently attended their activities since then, sometimes in police uniform and offering counsel to Tibetan teenagers. During a celebration of the Tibetan New Year, he took a photo with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a rising star in the US House of Representatives.
But the community soon became wary of Angwang as he openly criticised Dorjee Tseten, a member of the Tibet Parliament in Exile as well as the CEO of the Asian division of Students for a Free Tibet, for his pro-Tibetan independence comments at the New Year event. Angwang said Tibetan community organizations should avoid sensitive political topics. He also repeatedly reminded members of the community not to be involved in politics and making such suggestions as removing the snow lion flag of Tibet hung outside the community centre. The members followed the advice as, according to Angwang, they could receive donations from Chinese businesses if they were not involved in political activities.

Canadian defence minister calls out China for "hostage diplomacy"
Harjit Sajjan, Canada's defence minister, described China's continued detention of two Canadians as "hostage diplomacy” on Oct 7 and urged the NATO military alliance to keep tabs on the increasingly assertive Asian giant.
Two Canadians were arrested separately shortly after Canadian authorities in Vancouver detained Meng Wanzhou, who is the chief financial officer of Chinese telecom giant Huawei and is facing possible extradition to the U.S.
Sajjan remarked that this type of hostage diplomacy is not what good rules-based-order nations do and it goes against the norm.

Raab says UK boycott of Beijing Winter Olympics 2022 possible over Uighur abuses
“Generally speaking, my instinct is to separate sport from diplomacy and politics, but there comes a point when it is not possible,” UK Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab responded when asked about the possibility of Britain skipping the event in protest at China's human rights abuses.
Raab’s warning came as a growing alliance of countries at the UN human rights council on Tuesday called for an independent inquiry into what is happening to the Uighur people.
Raab told MPs he was considering imposing economic sanctions on the officials responsible for the repression. Also, he criticised some Muslim countries for being reluctant to criticise the Chinese.

#WhiteTerror #PoliticalOppression Education activists: deregistering pro-democracy teacher a clear sign of political interference aimed to create chilling effect
The Education Bureau (#EDB) has recently #deregister a teacher over the alleged use of some Hong Kong independence materials in class, barring him from teaching for life. Several Pro-democracy activists, included former and current lawmakers, is asking the public to write to the Bureau online and register their protest at the government's decision.
Civil Society Development Resources Centre:
The government's move is an erosion of academic autonomy, and it's unfair for officials to overrule the school's own ruling that the teacher committed no wrongdoing.
The Progressive Teachers' Alliance:
The government action is similar to the purge of teachers during the Cultural Revolution and the bureau's investigative could have bypassed standing protocol.
NeoDemocrat:
The current system is too complaint oriented, with the EDB trusting the complainants even anonymous ones. It is one-sided and unfair to teachers because they cannot reply to the complainant.
Education activist:
The government should listen to opinions of the students, so that schools won't become a place for political struggles.
