  1. Don’t break the law and you have nothing to fear, Nazi Germany tells Czechoslovakian staff of multinational firms.

  2. I will certainly hesitate and be wary of such sweet talk coming from China.

  3. Including talking, criticizing or shaming Chinese officials

  4. Get the Taiwanese outta China.. they’ll intimidate and blackmail family until they get what they want. LEAVE ASAP!

  5. Whenever China says this, it always sounds like a threat

  6. To state the obvious, the laws that China tells them not to break are written so broad that in effect, everyone has something to fear.

    >Sun Ping,an official from China’s Ministry of Public Security, told reporters in Beijing the maximum penalty for the “crime of secession” was the death penalty.

    >The guidelines detail what is considered a crime worthy of punishment, including promoting Taiwan’s entry to international organisations where statehood is a condition, having “external official exchanges” and “suppressing” parties, groups and people that promote “reunification”.

    >The guidelines add a further clause to what could be considered a crime – “other acts that seek to separate Taiwan from China” – meaning the rules can be broadly interpreted.

    Arguably even some of the comments below in this post qualify as *”other acts that seek to separate Taiwan from China”*, which seems disproportionate.

  7. Hmm speaking of Nazis, I wonder what happened to those Uyghur camps….

  8. Don’t break the law and you have nothing to fear. No, not your laws, our laws!

  9. Sounds more like a threat than anything. Especially that China’s law is arbitrarily written. Basically, if they deem you illegal, you’re illegal, can be for anything.

  10. Taiwan already has their own laws. PRC is a rebel state that has to be submitted back to its legitimate country that is Taiwan previously known as China.

  11. Don’t think bad thoughts or say bad words (eg: “Freedom”) and you have nothing to fear. China says.

  12. China is a lawless state and made up laws are enforced arbitrarily. Nobody is safe in China because it is ruled by law (the dictatorship) not rule of law.

  13. „Also, we decide what law is on whim and say you broke, even if you don’t, because we don’t like you.“

  14. As a HKer – YES, GUYS PLEASE LISTEN TO THE CCP. DONT BREAK THE LAWS AND YOULL BE FINE. SEE HOW PEACEFUL AND PROSPEROUS HK NOW? YES WE ARE VERY HAPPY HERE. THE TEARS IM SHEDDING NOW? HAPPY TEARS IM TELLING YOU.

  15. When they tell you not to worry, that’s when you worry!

  16. Including the laws they will retroactively invent after arresting staff

  17. “submit totally, and you have nothing to fear, for now”

  18. “Give me the person, and I’ll find the crime”

    Soviet secret police chief Lavrentiy Beria

  19. Translation: Move everyone out ASAP before arbitrary “laws” are broken.

  20. I mean that’s a better deal than you get from cops in the US.

  21. Omg just like the authoritarian far right that was pushing that creepy message in the US like 5-10 years ago… remember the Americans being spied on and they said that. If you ain’t doing anything illegal, what’s the problem??

  22. For decades, despite the disagreement, Taiwanese have been able to live and work peacefully on the mainland. That’s how Taiwan firms were able to setup branches and factories on the mainland, benefiting both sides. Until Xi came into power.
