Taiwan: Hualien Area Practitioners Organise Petition Drive against Article 23

Taiwan and Hong Kong have strong ties of business and tourism. Hong Kong, which used to be the symbol of freedom and democracy, in six short years after being returned to China, plans to enact the Article 23 Anti-Subversion law under heavy pressure from Beijing. Falun Gong practitioners from Hualien, Taiwan took the initiative to organise the Global Anti-Article 23 Petition Drive that strongly protests the proposed legislation.
