"The struggle of Hong Kong people will not stop, it will only continue with a more determined attitude," Law said in a Facebook post.newspaper, quoting an unidentified source, said China's official news agency Xinhua would publish details of the law later on Tuesday and Hong Kong officials would gather at the office of Beijing's top representative in the city later for a meeting on the legislation.
The draft law has alarmed foreign governments and Hong Kong democracy activists, who are concerned that Beijing is eroding the high degree of autonomy granted to the former British colony when it was returned to Chinese rule in 1997. China says the national security law will target only a small group of troublemakers and people who abide by the legislation have no reason to worry.
