#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.

China Sanctions 3 People and an Organisation
One of the
Sanctioned People: Proud to be Sanctioned due to Speaking Out for Hong Kong and Xinjiang

The sanctions between China, Europe and United Stated have not come to an end due to Xinjiang human rights issues. Ministry of Foreign Affairs in China announced to sanction three people and an organisation in the US and Canada last night (27th March). Canada President Trudeau responded to the sanction that it was an “unacceptable behaviour”. A Canadian Federal Representative, who has been sanctioned, Michael David Chong, indicated that he has a responsibility to speak out for Hong Kong and Uyghurs.

The father of Michael David Ching came from Hong Kong, and he also can speak Cantonese. He said, “We, the people who live in the free places with democracy and the rule of law, must speak out for silent. If this means China will sanction me, I will take it as an honour”.

Kneeling after Being Sanctioned by China; the British Law Firm Website Removed Xinjiang's Genocide Comments

Four barristers from Essex Court Chambers in England London released a legal opinion document, which described that the Chinese government is doing “genocide” in Xinjiang. Thus, the whole firm was being listed into the sanction list of China. According to Financial Times, the firm recently released a statement for “cutting ties”, saying that those legal opinions are not related to other firm members and has already removed the related document on their official website.

The related legal opinion document was distributed to non-profit organisations by the four lawyers in London. It described the actions that the Chinese government did in Xinjiang, involving the crimes of humanity and genocide. Right after that, the firm was being sanctioned by China.

#Australia should join its allies like the #UK to play a role as a global #humanrights leader. Show #CCP that money doesn't mean everything, and that human lives cannot be bought with so much cash!

China’s sanctions on me and others are a clumsy attempt to silence debate

Michael Chong is the Conservative foreign affairs critic and MP for Wellington-Halton Hills.

China is trying to silence the truth abroad, after having silenced it at home.

Just over two weeks ago, I woke up to news that China’s government had sanctioned me, adding me to a list of officials in the United States, Britain and Europe who have been sanctioned for simply speaking. Speaking against Beijing’s genocide of its Uyghur Muslim minority. Speaking against its crackdown on Hong Kong.

Vancouver mayor suspends meetings with Chinese government officials

Vancouver Mayor Kennedy Stewart has suspended all meeting requests and contact with Chinese government officials, including a recent invitation to meet with China’s ambassador to Canada.

The mayor’s move is a response to China recently announcing sanctions on individuals in the United States and Canada, including friend and Conservative MP Michael Chong.

“It’s threatening and intimidating and I know that he’s taking it in stride, but that’s reaching a new level of hostility — that’s not diplomacy, that’s bullying,” said Stewart, a former NDP MP who released a book with Chong and Liberal MP Scott Simms in 2017 about reforming democracy in Canada.

EU suspends efforts to ratify controversial investment deal with China 

The EU has suspended efforts to ratify an investment deal with China because of tensions between Brussels and Beijing.

The agreement was reached in principle last December but had yet to receive the necessary endorsement from EU institutions, such as the European Parliament.

"We have for the time being [...] suspended some efforts of political awareness on the part of the Commission because it's clear that, in the current situation, with the sanctions of the EU against China and the Chinese counter-sanctions, including against Members of the European Parliament, the environment is not conducive to the ratification of the agreement," Valdis Dombrovskis, executive vice-president of the European Commission, told French news agency AFP in an interview.
