Our names are Justin Look and Gordon Kean. We will be co-directing the HK LegCo Committee of the ShawMun Conference, 2020. We are permanent residents of Hong Kong and have always been passionate about the ever polar political climate of Hong Kong. In particular Hong Kong’s complicated relationship with China as a Special Administrative Region (SAR). Amongst ourselves, we often discuss possible solutions and similarities that could avoid polarization between the two heated parties. Our objectives for these upcoming committee sessions are to help beginner delegates understand the systems of how committee sessions work and prepare delegates for future conferences. Additionally, we would like to encourage the experienced delegates to create stimulating and rousing debates, whilst trying to maintain a fair extent of organization and diplomacy in order to move things forward. We will be working alongside Melody Lin to give you the best MUN experience possible. Melody has been involved in the MUN community internationally; she has been to conferences in the Philippines, Canada, and other countries. We believe working with someone with such great international exposure will widen our perspectives and help us look at things in the greater picture. Furthermore, being from Taiwan, a country that has received independence and is operating with its own resources and government systems, she can give great insights in terms of Hong Kong’s potential independent future.

What’s the significance of Basic Law after 2047? Overview: The 2019 Hong Kong Anti-ELAB protests are the culmination of years worth of frustration with the Hong Kong and Mainland Chinese government among the general Hong Kong populace. The protesters originally exclusively sought the full withdrawal of the extradition bill introduced by the Hong Kong government, but have since grown to five demands; - Fully withdraw the extradition bill - Set up an independent inquiry to probe police brutality - Withdraw a characterization of early protests as "riots" (Gu Liping, 2019) - Release those arrested at protests 4 - Implement universal suffrage in Hong Kong With no solution in sight, delegates will represent members of the Legislative Council of Hong Kong (LegCo) and attempt to establish commonality in the ever-hostile political climate that LegCo entails. This is a specialized agency focusing on Hong Kong’s political and economic issues regarding the ongoing protest. The LegCo is going to be split 50/50, one half being pro-Beijing and one being pro-Hong Kong. Furthermore, this agency will attempt to analyze and resolve issues such as police brutality and the dissolving border of this special administrative region. The Hong Kong specialized agency will provide an especially unique and valuable experience that will test delegates’ negotiation skills while behaving diplomatically as well as their ability to abide by their assigned LegCo members’ standpoint on the issue. The ultimate goal of these committee sessions will be to search for common ground and not to form polarized parties, as that will lead to more tensions within the Hong Kong Legislative Council. In order to tackle these issues with an in-depth level of detail, we will narrow down to two specific topics. These topics are: 1. Polarization between Hong Kong Protesters and the Hong Kong Government 2. Gradual erosion of Hong Kong's autonomy from China before 2047 Timeline: 1839- 1860 - the Opium War took place, which led to Hong Kong’s special administrative status. ​ The wars were fought in the mid 19th century due to England's attempted distribution of opium to the Chinese populace. The war resulted in a Chinese loss with the consequence being the concession of Hong Kong to the British Empire. July 1997 - Hong Kong is Handed over back to China as a Special Administrative region with ​ terms and conditions listed under the basic law. 2014 - The umbrella movement was founded, a movement asking for one person one vote. ​ 5 February 2019 - Hong Kong’s Security Bureau proposes amendments to extradition laws that ​ would allow extraditions to countries, including mainland China, beyond the 20 states with which Hong Kong already has treaties. March 31 - Thousands take to the streets to protest against the proposed extradition bill. ​ April 3 - Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam’s government introduces amendments to the extradition ​ laws that would allow criminal suspects to be sent to mainland China for trial. April 28 - Tens of thousands of people march on the Legislative Council to demand the ​ scrapping of the proposed amendments. May 11 -Protests break out in the legislature between pro-democracy lawmakers and those loyal ​ to Beijing. May 30 - Concessions to the extradition bill introduced but critics say they are not enough. ​ June 6 - More than 3,000 Hong Kong lawyers dressed in black take part in a rare protest march. ​ June 9 - More than half a million people take to the streets. ​ June 12 - Police fire rubber bullets and tear gas during the city’s largest and most violent ​ protests in decades. Government offices are shut. June 15 - Lam indefinitely delays proposed extradition law. ​ July 1 - Protesters storm the Legislative Council on the 22nd anniversary of the handover from ​ British to Chinese rule, destroying pictures and daubing walls with graffiti. July 9 - Lam says the extradition bill is dead and that government work on it had been a “total ​ failure”. July 21 - Men in white T-shirts, some armed with poles, storm a train at rural Yuen Long station, ​ attacking passengers and passers-by, after several thousand activists surrounded China’s representative office. July 30 - Forty-four activists are charged with rioting, the first time the charge has been used ​ during the protests. Aug. 9 - China’s aviation regulator demands Hong Kong flag carrier Cathay Pacific suspend ​ personnel who have taken part in the protests.

  • Chapter 6 Hong Kong
    CHAPTER 6 HONG KONG Key Findings • The Hong Kong government’s proposal of a bill that would allow for extraditions to mainland China sparked the territory’s worst political crisis since its 1997 handover to the Mainland from the United Kingdom. China’s encroachment on Hong Kong’s auton- omy and its suppression of prodemocracy voices in recent years have fueled opposition, with many protesters now seeing the current demonstrations as Hong Kong’s last stand to preserve its freedoms. Protesters voiced five demands: (1) formal with- drawal of the bill; (2) establishing an independent inquiry into police brutality; (3) removing the designation of the protests as “riots;” (4) releasing all those arrested during the movement; and (5) instituting universal suffrage. • After unprecedented protests against the extradition bill, Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam suspended the measure in June 2019, dealing a blow to Beijing which had backed the legislation and crippling her political agenda. Her promise in September to formally withdraw the bill came after months of protests and escalation by the Hong Kong police seeking to quell demonstrations. The Hong Kong police used increasingly aggressive tactics against protesters, resulting in calls for an independent inquiry into police abuses. • Despite millions of demonstrators—spanning ages, religions, and professions—taking to the streets in largely peaceful pro- test, the Lam Administration continues to align itself with Bei- jing and only conceded to one of the five protester demands. In an attempt to conflate the bolder actions of a few with the largely peaceful protests, Chinese officials have compared the movement to “terrorism” and a “color revolution,” and have im- plicitly threatened to deploy its security forces from outside Hong Kong to suppress the demonstrations.

    FEBRUARY 2021 HONG KONG’S NATIONAL SECURITY LAW: A Human Rights and Rule of Law Analysis by Lydia Wong and Thomas E.

  • Hong Kong Protests
    Country Policy and Information Note China: Hong Kong protests Version 1.0 February 2020 Preface Purpose This note provides country of origin information (COI) and analysis of COI for use by Home Office decision makers handling particular types of protection and human rights claims (as set out in the basis of claim section). It is not intended to be an exhaustive survey of a particular subject or theme. It is split into two main sections: (1) analysis and assessment of COI and other evidence; and (2) COI. These are explained in more detail below. Assessment This section analyses the evidence relevant to this note – i.e. the COI section; refugee/human rights laws and policies; and applicable caselaw – by describing this and its inter-relationships, and provides an assessment on whether, in general: • A person is reasonably likely to face a real risk of persecution or serious harm • A person is able to obtain protection from the state (or quasi state bodies) • A person is reasonably able to relocate within a country or territory • Claims are likely to justify granting asylum, humanitarian protection or other form of leave, and • If a claim is refused, it is likely or unlikely to be certifiable as ‘clearly unfounded’ under section 94 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002. Decision makers must, however, still consider all claims on an individual basis, taking into account each case’s specific facts. Country of origin information The country information in this note has been carefully selected in accordance with the general principles of COI research as set out in the Common EU [European Union] Guidelines for Processing Country of Origin Information (COI), dated April 2008, and the Austrian Centre for Country of Origin and Asylum Research and Documentation’s (ACCORD), Researching Country Origin Information – Training Manual, 2013.

Human Rights in China (HRIC) welcomes this opportunity to provide input to the UN Special Rapporteur on the promotion and protection of the right to freedom of opinion and expression for her report on disinformation to be presented in June 2021 at the 47th session of the Human Rights Council. Building upon the work of the Special Rapporteur’s predecessor, this thematic focus is important and timely in light of the alarming proliferation of “fake news,” disinformation, and propaganda in legacy and social media.1 Censorship by an authoritarian regime and creation and dissemination by the regime present heightened challenges to rights protection. The ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic also highlights the critical importance of the role of diverse stakeholders and timely disclosure of and access to accurate and relevant information to address the public health dangers posed by the now mutating coronavirus.
