Hong Kong leader urges people not to 'demonize' security law

Hong Kong leader urges people not to 'demonize' security lawHong Kong leader Carrie Lam said Tuesday that she hopes opponents of a new national security law being imposed by China do not “demonize and stigmatize” the legislation because doing so would mean pitting themselves against residents of the semi-autonomous Chinese territory. “The people of Hong Kong want to see stability again, they want a safe environment where they can work and live,” Lam told reporters. China’s ceremonial parliament in May approved the decision to enact a national security law in Hong Kong, aimed at curbing subversive, secessionist, terrorist and foreign intervention activities in the city following months of anti-government protests last year.
