Sweden: People Support Our Efforts Against Article 23 (Photos)


(Clearwisdom.net)

On December 21, Swedish practitioners held a peaceful appeal against the anti-subversion law, Article 23, in Myntorget of Stockholm. The activities included collecting signatures on petitions and revealing the truth about Article 23. Practitioners also demonstrated the five sets of exercises and sent forth righteous thoughts.

The purpose of holding the activities was to inform people of the damage the legislation would bring to Hong Kong; groups banned in mainland China, under the guise of "National Security," could also be banned in Hong Kong. What is most troublesome is that under this new legislation the definitions of "National Security," secession and subversion are completely up to the Jiang regime in Beijing. This gives mainland China complete control over the security forces in Hong Kong and is a direct attack on freedom.

Many people were out doing their Christmas shopping and were concerned when they saw a banner reading "Article 23 in Hong Kong is a Threat to Human Rights." They signed the petition against Article 23 hoping that Hong Kong can remain free and not be destroyed by Jiang's attempts to eliminate human rights and civil liberties.

If you would like to speak out for the freedom of people in Hong Kong, please sign the online petition against Article 23 at www.againstarticle23.org/en
