#JPAC calls for Japanese government to enact legislation for Human Rights #sanction

An inter-parliamentary group, Japan Parliamentary Alliance on China (JPAC) issued a statement on March 18, 2021 in which it condemned the China's General Assembly of the People's Congress for forcing changes to the electoral system in Hong Kong and charging 47 democrats with National Security breaches.

The alliance urged the Japanese Government to enact Human Rights Violations Sanctions Act as soon as possible and offer protection for Hongkongers facing oppression through immigration means.

The Alliance criticized the Chinese Communist Party’s (#CCP) amendments of Hong Kong’s electoral system as an act that deprives the democrat’s right to vote, aiming to weaken the development of democracy in Hong Kong.

JPAC further denounced that the CCP has blatantly violated the principle of One Country Two Systems as promised in the Sino-British Joint Declaration .

The statement also mentioned the Hong Kong authorities' arrest of 47 democrats for charges of “conspiracy to subverting state power”. It also reiterated that almost all known democratic political figures in Hong Kong have been arrested, jailed or forced to exile.

The JPAC strongly protested the arrests and called for the early release of the arrested persons.
