What does Hong Kong look like under the patriots’ rule? | BBC News


In Hong Kong’s new “patriots-only” era, anonymous informing is now the norm.

BBC Eye investigates how the rise of “patriots-only” rule in Hong Kong has been marked by arrests of opposition figures, the silencing of critical media, and a growing culture of surveillance and anonymous reporting. Beneath the surface, critics warn the city is drifting toward a climate reminiscent of the Cultural Revolution.

Hongkongers who identify as patriots, including Innes Tang, who talks about how he reported around 100 people to the authorities for suspected national security violations.

Bookstore owner Pong Yat-ming describes how anonymous complaints have triggered repeated government inspections.

Veteran journalist Ronson Chan, arrested while reporting tells how he is now facing trial, and we visit a school promoting “national identity” classes under the new education agenda.
