: Four years after Beijing imposed broad laws intended to stifle dissent, leader John Lee announced today that the semi-autonomous city would draft its own national security law in 2024.
However, Beijing responded by enacting a national security law that carries life sentences for four serious offences: secession, subversion, terrorism, and collusion with foreign forces. In order to fulfil its constitutional obligation, the government is currently working hard to develop viable legislative options, and it plans to finish the process in 2024, according to Lee.
