Hong Kong’s Internet access also over the wall? Taiwan Presbyterian Church and other official websites blocked

After the implementation of the Hong Kong version of the National Security Law, the Hong Kong government is suspected to have blocked a number of websites, including the website of the Taiwan Church of Christ Presbyterian Church, which assists Hong Kong’s exiled protesters, and so on, all of which require the use of wall software to view. For whether to block the network again, the Hong Kong Security Bureau and the police have replied that they do not comment on any speculation. But the pastor of Taiwan Presbyterian Church revealed that the website has been blocked for about a week, and said that even Hong Kong has to go through the wall, which only proves that Hong Kong has been “mainlandized”.

Searching for “Taiwan Christian Presbyterian Church” from Taiwan, the official website is normal. However, when searching from Hong Kong, it shows that the website cannot be opened, which is suspected to be blocked by the Hong Kong government. Not only this one website, the Hong Kong media actual test, the official website of the Taiwan Democratic Progressive Party and the Ministry of National Defense National Army Talent Recruitment Center, also can not be successfully connected.

The National Human Rights Commission President Chen Ju: “The Human Rights Commission will care about all victims of human rights and the obstacles that we encounter in the pursuit of human rights.

The Christian Presbyterian Church in Taiwan has long been concerned about Taiwan’s sovereignty and Hong Kong’s exiles, and the pastor also said that even Hong Kong has to go over the wall, showing that Hong Kong has been “mainlandized”. As to whether there is a blockade, the Hong Kong Security Bureau and the police have said that they will not comment on any speculation. However, the Hong Kong media, Wen Wei Po, which is regarded as the mouthpiece of the Chinese Communist Party, seemed to have revealed its position, reporting on the 25th with the headline “Hong Kong blocks website of Taiwan-independent church in violation of national security law”. In fact, the Hong Kong government has blocked the website of the Taiwan Association for the Promotion of Independence (TAPI) more than once, in February this year.

The deputy head of the Land Commission Qiu Chui-cheng (2021.2.18): “The free flow of information is a basic human right and a cornerstone of Hong Kong’s success as an international city. We call on the relevant units to ensure that the people of Hong Kong have the right to know and not to regress and tighten these suppressive measures to avoid damaging Hong Kong’s international image.”
