Hong Kong's Political Shift: From Promises to Repression

This chapter examines the transformation of Hong Kong's political landscape since its 1997 handover to China, focusing on the erosion of 'one country, two systems' into authoritarianism. It discusses the chilling effects of the national security law on freedom of expression, the arrests of activists, and the appointment of a security chief as leader. Personal stories from exiled pro-democracy members highlight the ongoing fight for freedom and the global implications of China's tightening grip on Hong Kong.
