Zhong Shengxiong, a journalist who continues to pay attention to Hong Kong’s problems, noted in an interview with “Apple News” today (12) that he had attended five anti-broadcast protesters from Hong Kong and arrived in Taiwan via Dongsha from Hong Kong on July 18 this year. However, after two months, these 5 people are still “in the hands of the MAC” and cannot communicate with the outside world. “Don’t say they have reported peace to their hometown parents (who will never be able to return). They even helped the protesters for a long time. Lawyers and human rights groups cannot see it.” The MAC stated that the MAC believes that the various messages circulating in the outside world may have a specific purpose, which may cause harm to the entire mechanism or individuals, and the government will not explain it individually.
Zhong Shengxiong mentioned in a Facebook post that when the MAC was questioned by the media recently, although he did not admit it, he did not deny it either. He said that he confirmed the matter now because he was the main facilitator who brought them to Taiwan. The development of the situation is different from what I had originally imagined. He can hardly escape the guilt and feel very sorry for them and their families. Make it public, so those who can help them can act soon.
In an interview with “Apple News”, Zhong Shengxiong said that he had thought for a long time whether he should speak about the matter publicly, but because of these protesters who came to Taiwan for help, his family members in Hong Kong took the risk. being liquidated and asked the Hong Kong media to reveal it. They search “Their children are trapped in Taiwan and cannot be contacted.” They want to know the current situation of the children after their arrival in Taiwan. As the person who helps these protesters send information and helps them come to Taiwan, he believes that he is responsible for their families. Understand the current situation. Zhong believes that even if the MAC has national security considerations, they should at least be allowed to contact their family members under the supervision of the MAC, or through agents, rather than completely cutting off their contact with the outside world.
Zhong Shengxiong urged the Hong Kong protesters: “If possible, don’t go back to Taiwan.” He explained that the current waterway is completely blocked. Since June, Hong Kong’s waters have increased a large number of personnel for patrols and aerial cameras have been added in many places. It is difficult to prevent and pass. The first two months are not a level. “Zhong Shengxiong also pointed out that if he is arrested for smuggling at sea,” it may be easy to have him removed. “Thus, the 12 Hong Kong residents who were previously detained in the continent, “I am very honest. It’s hard to judge his luck or misfortune, because being caught alive means more torture. “
In addition to the intensification of inspections by the mainland authorities, Zhong Shengxiong also revealed that the conditions for the protesters after their arrival in Taiwan were not ideal. Except for a very small number of staff from the Continental Affairs Council and the Department of Maritime Patrol, no one knows if they are doing well and how they are doing. “It is not so much that they obtained asylum in Taiwan, it is better to say that they lived worse than other smugglers, and the lawyers were not even seen.”
Zhong Shengxiong also criticized the DPP by name. It is not as good as everyone imagined supporting the Hong Kong protesters. “They did something, but they hope that all of us who know the truth will shut up and don’t talk; if we don’t talk about it, no one knows what they did. How many people are opposed to saving Hong Kong and how many people are opposed to saving Hong Kong.” He estimated that the most important reason for “cannot speak” is the political issue in China and Taiwan, but believes that the CCP has known for a long time that they will continue with the incident, so it is not “cannot talk. “He also mentioned that some people just want to ‘shut up’ Hong Kong people, human rights groups, intermediaries and lawyers.” So I want to tell the many anonymous Hong Kong brothers that Taiwan really doesn’t can help, and it doesn’t. I want to help you, you deserve better, find another way. “
During the interview, Zhong Shengxiong was even more blunt that the government can really provide very little help. The Hong Kong people assistance projects that are now being promoted concern those who come to Taiwan through legal channels. They can go to other places, so why come to Taiwan? “Taiwan does no more than other places, and the people who really need to come to Taiwan for help are those people from Hong Kong who cannot come to Taiwan through legal channels. He called on the government to establish a clearer rescue mechanism to help these political refugees.
As for publicly exposing the linker who came to Taiwan for the Hong Kong protesters, do you have any doubts about breaking the law? Zhong only replied, “I didn’t break the law.”
Regarding Zhong Shengxiong’s allegations, the Marine Patrol Department stated that no relevant cases had been received. The MAC indicated that of the various messages circulating around the outside world, the MAC believes that it may have a specific purpose, which can cause harm to the entire mechanism or individuals. I hope the outside world doesn’t make unnecessary speculation. The government will not explain every case. The government has established a humanitarian assistance mechanism for the people of Hong Kong, and those who meet the conditions will provide the necessary humanitarian assistance.
In response to the protest against the Hong Kong people who come to Taiwan and lose their alliance, the People’s Party issued a statement late at night in which it claimed that this incident also proved once again that only the legal system can support Hong Kong in substance, and the current practice of the ruling party cannot be guaranteed. The People’s Party requested that the Cai government and the Continent Affairs Council clearly establish the course and content of the incident, if it can only be done but cannot be said, or if it has not been done and cannot be said.
The People’s Party noted that this incident also highlights the absurdity of Hong Kong people coming to Taiwan without being legalized and only dealing with the so-called special case. The People’s Party has proposed to amend Article 18 of the Hong Kong-Macao Relations Ordinance on May 15 to clearly stipulate that “Those who leave Hong Kong or Macao for reasons of war, race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, social groups specific or who have specific political opinions, and who have a valid reason to fear persecution, such that they cannot be protected by Hong Kong or Macao or are unwilling to return to Hong Kong or Macao, must be determined to the competent authority to apply for asylum “.
Furthermore, in relation to article 18 of the Refugee Law, the Popular Party proposes to amend the law. After the competent authority receives an asylum application, it will carry out a substantive review in accordance with the above requirements and invite representatives of the relevant bodies, experts, academics and other social justice persons to convene a review meeting. At the same time, the ruling party must clearly explain the circumstances of the case and the processing procedures for subsequent similar cases. Don’t support Hong Kong before the elections. There is no way to do it after the elections, which will seriously affect Taiwan’s international image.
The People’s Party called for the law to be amended as soon as possible, to prevent politically persecuted Hong Kongers from becoming illegal immigrants, to allow political victims to come to Taiwan with dignity and accept asylum. As long as Korea “supports Hong Kong,” the government cannot evade its responsibility. (Wu Shaoyu, Chen Peihuang, Taipei Emergency Center / Report)
