Hong Kong pro-establishment lawmaker Ho Kwan-yiu said Wednesday he plans to set up a national security education center to promote local judicial reform and national security education.
Speaking to the media on the same day, Ho Kwan-yiu said he would join forces with the International Public Interest Legal Services Association to set up Hong Kong’s first national security education center, which aims to promote judicial reform, national security education and Article 23 of the Basic Law legislation, among other things.
He said the body will promote the establishment of a sentencing commission, abolish the requirement for judges to wear wigs, set up national security training and study courses for judges, and collaborate with civil society groups to hold national security education lectures and training in primary and secondary schools, and ten schools in Hong Kong have already expressed their willingness to attend such lectures.
The international community is generally of the opinion that the implementation of the National Security Law in Hong Kong is aimed at suppressing the local democracy movement, which violates the basic human rights of Hong Kong people and makes “one country, two systems” exist in name only.
