The suspect into taiwan who cite case is now serving his sentence in the chair of hong kong for other of finances we would like to pass the legislation in july this year bearing in mind that fact we have listened to a few soldiers who signed and on 2 occasions we have already made changes 1st of all before the formal introduction of the bill in co we have taken away knowing items of offenses that are extraditable and then for do punish when fresh go instead of one Year Imprisonment we have changed it to 3 years in prison another round of change took place after the introduction of the bill and then for the punishment fresh whole it was changed from street years or above to 7 years or above that would be the maximum punishment fresh hope also and haunts the human rights for safeguards so as to ease the worries of the society so as to secure more support i myself and what a friend of the shows have done however i have to that in terms of explanation and communication they were indeed after could see many citizens of hong kong have agreed with us on due to object to is involved but that the bill has caused a lot of division into society there were supportive there were also opposing views and their views were very strong and your stu are not sure where. And understanding about the bill in relation to the legislative work. Suspicion has emerged we try our best to never o. Ded differences in the open yet. Hoping that we can easily where really is offered a pos we saw we saw that tens of thousands of people took part in processions of marches and then after sunday march and then on wednesday there were also demonstrations and there were serious clashes as a result which produce offices press and general citizens were injured to give those who have to properly set them to buy. In the light of what has happened and as a responsible government on the one hand we have to uphold the rule of law at the same time we have to take into account the profiling circumstances we have to bear in mind the greatest interest of hong kong 1st of all we need to restore peace and order in hong kong and we have to prevent having for the injuries course to the public as well as to police on this occasion i would like to think the approach a step richmond came molests call members as well as the Community Leaders in the past few days both publicly and in private they have talked to us telling us that we should pause and instinct and who should then act in accordance with the agreed you know timetable which would be soon to 2nd at the letters of council so as to avoid causing further challenges in their society and in fact taiwan on many occasions have opening and clearly said that they would not upset do you propose that was made by the Hong Kong Special and mistreats of regent government to take back to Mitchell County and then urgency to pasta legislation pushkin get current registered to you perhaps no longer exists but a prostitute was rationed we considered the matter here i would like to make an announcement the special ministry to. Government would like to suspend work we would like to have more explanation would like to listen more to the views expressed i would like to emphasise that we are open and we will listen to all fields concerning the bill from just to sightsee the secretary for security who wants to the president of the Legislative Council. So as to drop the noches to resume to 2nd reading to page in other words the letters of counsel as far as the handling of the bill is concerned will be halted will be suspended. We do not intend to set any line on the world from work we promise that after we have created 2 views report to the Security Panel of the letter coach will consult the use of the lawmakers before we decide on this step forward would i express my gratitude a separate macam members who have been supporting our legislative work as well as members of the public there are also others who may not support the bill but there are school have been expressing your views in a peaceful manner as syncs such citizens and organizations hong kong is a civilized diversified society we need this kind of Mutual Respect we may disagree but we are still in harmony finally as the chief executive of the special ministry to reach him for our original intention of the amendment to this come this came from our love for hong kong go for my part in escrow is our concern about our people as a result of our in adequacy is and a number of factors for the past 2 years we have been quite peaceful but once again we have seen a lot of disharmony and clashes this has disappointed and sad to many people it is for he said and found it regrettable. We if the best and most most sincerity in a humble heart we are open to all criticisms and who is stupid connect it with the people of Hong Kong Media in february last year a murder case in taiwan shocked and saddened many hong kong people a Young Hong Kong lady was killed and this sucks but flat back to hong kong so weve just been hearing from hong kong cheeky chief executive kerry land there announcing that the the controversial extradition bill that is sent so many people in hong kong out into the streets in protest against it will be suspended. This is going to be seen as a nod to the anger expressed by so many people there but future still at this point to remain uncertain scott hyla is standing by force listening to all of this so scott as expected this is being put to one side. That is going to be that something that many people are against us in hong kong are going to be happy about at least for now. At least for now has an absolutely and what carrie lamb was describing there is that she believes theres a lot of misunderstanding about this proposed extradition law we heard kind of detail why they wanted to put this law forward why they were such a fast track in this law again that 2nd reading of the proposed law was supposed to take place on wednesday thats when we saw those those clashes she said that it brought a lot of disharmony to hong kong what we saw over the last week so it is her responsibility she said to take a better look at the law to better explain the law she said theres a lot of misunderstandings about it so thats very interesting this is something she said kind of straight the way through she believes that people dont really understand what its all about but again as we were discussing before housing my lot of people here prodemocracy protesters who came out to the streets here in hong kong they see this yes they are against the specific extradition laws because that means criminal suspects can be extradited to China Mainland china beijing but they also see it as a further power grab from xi jinping the president of china so thats also why theyre out there proposed protesting this law but again as we heard she believes that theres a lot of misunderstanding what this law is about its her duty she said Legislative Council duty to explain it further so again as we anticipated. She suspending further discussions on this law for now so yes it is i shore term victory for these protesters they got essentially what they wanted in the very short term that is that this law will proceed further but it doesnt mean that its definitely cancelled its not dead its just suspended and scott what do you choose to see the origins of this bill as coming from the Hong Kong Government which is seen as very prosing probating or whether its coming directly from the beijing government itself. This is looks like a. Political calculation that they have made and a way for them to save face after all of the protests that we saw over the last few days this and so much global attention. Absolutely i guess you know this this political calculation that were seeing right now unfolding live comes on the heels of what you can say was a miscalculation politically by kerry lamb and that she didnt expect to get this kind of backlash this kind of reaction from from hong kong so this is her but her backpedaling yet so obviously its going to be a situation where she has to you know kind of lick their wounds and try to to do things over again if you will again its not dead but whats interesting is that when you look at it yes its a pro beijing Legislative Council theyve kind of stacked the deck beijing actually selected the leaders here handpicked shortlisted leaders here in hong kong so i guess anything they do obviously will be ultimately answerable to beijing so anything theyre doing here is part and parcel with what beijing wants and thats what really really really angers a lot of these prodemocracy protesters thats why we saw this. Reaction to this bill now what happens now is this you know its a step back obviously but how does it go forward whats beijings involvement going to be you know its a lot of it is behind the scenes you know we saw the ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson the other day mention react to the violence we saw on wednesday saying it was a riot situation but again thats probably all were going to see is really just kind of a very official press Conference Reaction to whats going on in hong kong but again a lot of behind the scenes beijing action is going on as well but we really wont know the full extent of it but right now. Their limbs announcement obviously its something where they have to backpedal a bit from this from this law indeed scott and its hard to see at this point how this will be. Resolved and where things go from here activists. Have talked before the. Strikes and on boycotts of classes and more protests. And so on and we heard from kerry lamb a few days ago. Essentially saying that they were determined to posture. Bill and but just to make changes to it in the future so its an open question as to where it all goes from here. Absolutely and yet again its suspension its not killed and she she really kind of underlined in that press statement she underlined that its their job to better inform people of the law itself they said that she said that they failed in that so again its not like shes going to change what the law actually is proposed the changes to this law extradition laws are going to be its just that they need to better explain them so thats going to be interesting to see how she does that and what kind of reaction will be from from these prodemocracy demonstrators theres a march planned tomorrow sunday and thats obviously going to go forward what will be interesting is the mood in that march is going to be more of a victory lap or are we going to see a lot of what we saw last sunday a lot of people coming out protesting against this this extradition law or is it going to be more of a celebration because they least in the short term they got what they wanted this law the passage of this law has been pushed back on them yeah and as were talking to you scott still addressing reporters on the announcement of the suspension of the law in english were expecting to hear. From her and she takes questions in a little bit so well hang around for that and while were waiting for that to happen just give us a little bit of background as to how this all originated because it was it was something to do with a crime that was committed in in taiwan and that gets into the timing of when this bill was 1st introduced. That was a murder case theres. Hong kong gentleman was charged with a murder in taiwan and because of the current extradition law he wasnt the government couldnt extradite him to taiwan so this is the begin. Of why this bill came to play and carrie lamb she said it was a very personal plea from from the woman who was killed mother that drove her to push this change in the extradition law forward which she said thats what she said was the main reason for it obviously because of what the law also does and that means yes its opens the door for extradition to anywhere and beijing prodemocracy protesters are focused on that beijing aspect of the law and theyre very concerned because that means that the judicial system here which is very transparent and you know renowned around the world for being. Fair and direct whereas in Mainland China the judicial system is not so the concern here was if the judiciary in beijing can get a hold of of suspects criminal suspects here they could be trumped up there could be trumped up charges against those who say bad things about Mainland China those who are critics of the Chinese Government because we know how they handle it in Mainland China concerned for hong kong people is that there could be trumped up charges and then extradite these people these critics to beijing but again the root cording to carry land the route that she wanted to push forward with this extradition law change was that case in taiwan but obviously the the critics focus on the broader spoke scope of that law doesnt and it looks like terry lamb is going to be taking some questions now from reporters less than shes trying not to a small time one question because we have got many reporters kiya yes something paul. In 23. 00 there was a proposal to legislate for article countries 3 of the basic law and then took bill also hopefully tried to now the pendennis have said that suspension point not be acceptable suspension would it be some. Effective in modifying the anger and then point you to oppose you have said that. If the mainstream opinion is against you then you would step down do you think that it is do not serious enough to ask for you to step down and you have always said that you are in much and in fact over the past few days many parents with said because many dumb people weve by the police with Excessive Force they have been injured and are you going to apologize on behalf of the police are you going to set up an independent commission of inquiry to look into that matter and are you going to retract the statement that it is being. I hope you wont ask a few questions in one go out of wise the report says will have to chance to ask questions yes. We were set aside enough time but then there are many reporters here it shows that has attracted watches read consent 1st of all as i have said your own original purpose of the bill asked you correctly in my mind if many citizens and in fact more than half of the law in pinkas are in support of the legislature of work so your original purposes remain the same but then our communication has not been asked to quit we need to give a chuys we need to be open we need to accommodate kate we explain and will listen when we listen were going to be open and you will be comprehensive in odd ways were going to listen to different we as long as we have to same purpose thirtys we can achieve regional puppet says of course i have to choose just know that one of the 2 are regional purposes. That is hunting to taiwan one site case that may not be achieved i have already told their parents of to think. That we might not be able to achieve that particular purpose but then for the on the original purpose it is too important there are still loopholes in our. Mechanism we can only do we have to surrender all future too often do is was 20 countries so i dont think we are in a position to retract the bill are not wise we are sending the message that the bill is unjustified and therefore it has to be proved wrong so thats i will position indeed when i ran for the post hong kong leader kerry lamb dressing reports as there of questions and answers after earlier announcing. This she was delaying indefinitely the controversial extradition law that would allow people to be taken to Mainland China for trial after these widespread protests that took place in hong kong more reaction to that official right now its inside story.
