professors signed a joint letter to Jiang in which they protested the establishment of Hong Kong
Basic Law No. 23. In the letter, the scholars stated that this decree, known as "No.23,"
against "division, subversion and revolution" would harm the freedom of the people of Hong

decree goes against the interests of the people of Hong Kong, and they call on Jiang to urge the
Hong Kong government to rescind Basic Law No. 23 in accordance with the "one country, two
