Hong Kong launches public consultation on proposed national security law
Fox News
Hong Kong has initiated a public consultation on a national security law, following in the steps of Bejing, who implemented a similar law three years ago.
Hong Kong’s mini-constitution, the Basic Law, calls for the city to enact a national security law, but it's been delayed for decades because of widespread public opposition based on fears it would erode civil liberties. In 2003, an attempt to pass a version of the law sparked street protests that drew half a million people, and the legislation was shelved.
