joining me now is hong kong pro-democracy activist place. first of all what is your reaction to jimmy lay's arrest i am actually very shocked and i'm very angry about near as. hard also shows that those communist party in china will not tolerate any kind of press freedom under its regime and it's very dangerous or if we don't stress and. freedom of the access to information and hunt and we bring that c.c.p. it's high it's kind of like holding a whole hong kong as a hostage in response to the sanctions that has been posed by the us yesterday in the last week. you think trying to send a message to activists like well like yourself. yes i believe so i think he is trying to send a message to tell us that one by one they were arrest us all because today not only general i was being arrested agnes chala friend and also a very well resourced freelance journalist in hong kong wilson lee is also being arrested and they are all actually kind of prominent figures were there within the active circle that is clearly sending a message that they have been

and hong kong relations. on the hong kong is an reasonable up area and i think the long run it will inflict ruin to us u.s. interest income to as you have seen well i don't find any sort of valid reason for this blatant if you're in. a fast 5 own country i don't think this is necessary for you to do so and looking at the wide interest in us such imposition of a reasonable set of measures would send a very wrong signal to u.s. investment in hong kong and i think ultimately i think that the toll will get back to the u.s. of course it will definitely hurt u.s. relations. so a clock is in hong kong she says the reaction to the sanctions has been strong. the condemnation has been swift not just from the hong kong government but also a by beijing's top representative in hong kong that he has said he strongly opposes and condemns the treasury sanctions he said this reveals unscrupulous the unscrupulous intentions of u.s. politicians to support anti china chaos in hong kong and inquired or quote from him and what's b

his arrest going to have on the people in hong kong where of course many hong kong people woke up this morning to learn of the news and many a shock and horrify including myself and i think this is send out a very very negative message and of course it must have a chilling effect on people who want to speak out and particularly on the news media so this is a very very disturbing development although made maybe not unexpected but and people say that hong kong no longer has the rule of law so i hope. and those of the people who have been arrested will be able to have the rights protected and of course if the authorities have evidence i hope they will come out with it because such allegations have been made for a long time and up to now they have a good was no evidence this national law has only been in effect for matter of weeks have you seen people in hong kong changing the way that they live or the way that they speak as a result of the impact of this law. well i think that we have seen quite a increasing amount of self-censorship amongst the news media some local media even say that t

in hong kong is really a tragedy. let's get more from the double correspondent we have yang who conducted that interview and joins me now from taipei we're in taiwan is clearly concerned but in reality how much of a difference can it make when it comes to the situation in hong kong. so in the interview that we conducted with the foreign minister joseph he clearly pointed out the time once they can stay friends from falling into this similar situation like hong kong is to rely on its sovereignty and also its democratic system and the government that is always elected by the people in taiwan so in a way that is there in much aligned with what the administration has been strengthening and really emphasizing over and over again over the last few years which is that the democratic value is playing a very important role for time one to continue to strengthen its independence from any sort of interference or impact politically from china. voter as we have seen over the last few years have been also exercising their democrati

right now we will go to hong kong. we could spend the entire show, frankly, on hong kong. editor,a government karen leigh. i want to go to the tea leaves out there, and it is always true in america, the symbolism of the fly. the south china morning post has a smaller article today, where beijing is really beginning to shape up the laws on desecration of the flag. to me that is a little tea leaf of the tension in hong kong over 1949 is flag from displayed or shown or trashed upon in protest. what is the tension that you see and the symbolism of something, like how the beijing flag is treated in hong kong? karen: well, tom, as we have been following this, as we have been following over the last six weeks or so, it has been an escalating drumbeat of tensions between china and hong kong, and the vibe here is very different than it was two months ago. we saw things today, a top media tycoon being arrested, of 200 or so police officers storming the officers of the pro-democracy newspaper here, which he owns. these are things we would not have imagined in hong kong even a year ag

yes i think a lot of people outside of hong kong as well as inside of hong kong are asking whether this is the start of a more widespread political purge now jimmy lie along with agnes chauhan other prominent pro-democracy figure have been arrested on suspicion of colluding with foreign powers now according to the national security legislation if you collude with foreign powers that means you run the possibility of facing not just life in jail but also potentially having your trial held on the mainland because that law stipulates that when it's you know if the offense strays into foreign matters if it strays into defense issues that it becomes complicated which means the trial could i'm not saying will that could happen on the mainland now here in hong kong there has been what you might say a bit of investor activism going on because shares in next media which owns the apple daily newspaper have risen by more than 200 percent on tuesday on monday they rose by a staggering 300 percent which i think is a stock market record so this in a sense is a sign of investors showing a sort of silen
