The first "National Security Education Day" after the CCP forced the Hong Kong version of the National Security Law. The Disciplinary Forces Training School held an open day on the 15th to demonstrate Chinese marching for the first time. The two words "Guo" and "An" "show loyalty" to the CCP. As a result, netizens discovered that after connecting the heads in a line, the formation showed the words "Heaven destroys the CCP" and causes heated discussion.
On April 15, the Hong Kong Government hosted the "National Security Education Day for All". The five disciplined services academies, including the police, customs, correctional department, fire and ambulance, held open days.
For the first time, the police force performed Chinese marching, also known as "goose step", to the public. Chinese marching is different from the British marching used in the past, and the commander's password has also been changed to Cantonese. Looking at the information, countries that still use "goose steps" include China and North Korea. Before the end of the march, the commander shouted a slogan of loyalty.
The key activity of the day was the performance of Chinese marching by the honor guard of the Correctional Services Department, which was divided into morning and afternoon. At 3 pm, the Honor Guard of the Correctional Services Department first demonstrated the "Straight Step" and "Single Step" techniques of Chinese marching with the soundtrack of "Military Mighty March", as well as fancy interspersed marching and military gun performances.

Members of the Honor Guard of the Correctional Services Department issued "look forward" marching instructions in Mandarin. In the middle of the performance, 24 players formed two simplified characters of "Guo" and "安" through marching.
Afterwards, the police flying tigers, anti-terrorist special services and stormtroopers demonstrated anti-terrorism exercises. There is also a national education exhibition on site, including water cannon vehicles and armored vehicles.
However, in the Liandeng discussion area, some sharp-eyed netizens found that the simplified characters of "Guo" and "安" composed of correctional officers were very similar to the simplified characters of "Heaven destroys the CCP", and they sang the loyalty of the disciplined forces.
Afterwards, some netizens "dotted and connected" heads into a picture of "Heaven destroys the CCP".
Netizens have hotly discussed that this is "God's Will", "No matter how you look at it, you can't see the character for 'national' in the remnant body. I see 'Heaven destroys the CCP' many times now."

"Heaven destroys the CCP" becomes a slogan for Hong Kong people
"Heaven Destroying the CCP" first appeared in the book "Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party" in 2004, to the effect that the CCP is an evil demon that endangers all mankind. Mankind can only defend their conscience while complying with the will of God, and the gods and Buddhas will help mankind eliminate the evil spirits. .
For many years, Falun Gong practitioners in Hong Kong have also hung up banners on the streets of "Heaven destroys the CCP", telling the world that good and evil are retributable. The CCP, which suppresses Falun Gong and harvests live organs, will never escape the sanctions.
Fifteen years later, "Heaven destroys the CCP" has become a common slogan for Hong Kong people during demonstrations. In 2019, when the anti-transmission broke out in Hong Kong, the people of Hong Kong recognized the essence of the CCP during the suppression. Therefore, "Heaven destroys the CCP" was printed in various posters and slogans, written in the streets and alleys, and became one of the slogans of the struggle.
It is God's will to say that "Heaven destroys the CCP"
In addition, as early as June 2002, 270 million-year-old "Tibetan Stones" were discovered in Guizhou, and six neatly arranged characters "The Communist Party of China is dead" were discovered in the section of the huge boulder that broke 500 years ago. The "Communist Party" turned out to be a wave of three retreats. Up to now, more than 370 million people have withdrawn from the CCP, league, and team organizations.
All this not only shows the will of heaven, but also condenses the hearts of the people. "Heaven destroys the CCP" has become an irresistible trend. The CCP’s institutional corruption and degeneration caused by the frenzied persecution of Falun Gong followers who practice "Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance" is like the spread of malignant cancer cells throughout the body, which is hopeless.

Canada, Ontario extends home expansion order, India breaks record, variant virus rages
On Saturday, excluding mainland China, approximately 139.99 million people were diagnosed with the CCP virus, and approximately 3 million people died. In Ontario, Canada, the epidemic hit a new high, and the authorities extended and expanded the stay-at-home order. The epidemic situation in India has worsened, with more than 230,000 infections, and the "mutant virus" may be the main reason.
Ontario, which has 38% of Canada’s population, is responding to the fierce third wave of the epidemic. On Friday, it notified 4,812 new confirmed cases, a record high.
On Friday, Ontario extended the extended stay-at-home order, giving the police new powers to interrogate and stop people who left their homes. And announced that starting from Monday, non-essential travel in neighboring provinces, including shopping malls, hotels and office buildings and other non-essential buildings will be closed.
In recent weeks, the authorities have closed schools and restaurants, restricted people from shopping in physical stores, and cancelled non-urgent operations, fearing that the surge in hospital admissions may cause the hospital to be overwhelmed.
On Saturday, the Indian capital New Delhi began a weekend curfew, and people’s lives came to a standstill.
In the past 24 hours, India notified 234,692 confirmed cases, which broke the record. India has had three consecutive days with more than 200,000 new cases in a single day, and the total number of cases currently exceeds 14.52 million. The death toll increased by 1,341 people to a cumulative total of 175,649.

The situation is critical and the President of Ukraine strongly urges to join NATO
Reporter : Li Zhaoxi / Editor : Yun Tao / https://www.ntdtv.com/gb/2021/04/17/a103098369.html / Translation, editing : Gan Yung Chyan, KUCINTA SETIA
Reports about Russia's large-scale deployment of troops in Crimea and eastern Ukraine have raised concerns about the outbreak of war between Moscow and Kiev. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy warned that Russia’s military build-up on the Ukrainian border “threats the entire democratic order” and that Ukraine hopes to become a NATO member.
On Friday (16th), a few hours before going to Paris for a video meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Zelensky reiterated his country's desire to join NATO to the British media The Telegraph.
"Only when Ukraine joins NATO can we guarantee long-term security and peace," Zelensky said. "This is a conflict. It will determine whether the true democratic order can be maintained and whether the principle of inviolability of borders can work. Do countries have the freedom to choose their own destiny?"
Zelensky supported US President Biden's call for a bilateral summit with Putin to resolve the crisis, and warned that this is a "test for Europe and the West as a whole."
Zelensky said that there are now at least 40,000 Russian troops deployed in Crimea, and another 40,000 are deployed on the border between Russia and Ukraine. With the addition of about 30,000 Russian and separatist troops stationed in the separation areas of Donetsk and Luhansk, the deployment of the military has reached the largest scale of Russian troops in the region since the peak of the war.
Experts are divided on whether Russia’s display of force is part of the real invasion plan or just an act of intimidation. Zelensky said that he did not rule out these two situations and was assessing the situation "absolutely sober".
Zelensky expressed his support for peace talks, but at the same time he warned: "We have already had a crisis situation. That is why we must work together to achieve results, and everyone must know that aggressive actions or threats will never affect anything. People benefit."
"The United Kingdom has expressed this position very strongly," Zelensky said. In the conversation, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson expressed solidarity and full support for Ukraine.
On Thursday, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba delivered a speech after meeting with his colleagues in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, asking the Baltic countries to contact the EU and other NATO member states to seek "practical assistance" to Kiev.

Japanese representatives rarely raise the national flag in Taiwan, scholars analyze the next steps of the United States and Japan
The US-Japan summit issued a joint statement, not only mentioning the challenges of the CCP, but also highly concerned about peace in the Taiwan Strait. In fact, since the beginning of this year, the Japanese representative in Taiwan has raised the Japanese flag at the official residence. How to interpret it? Let's look at the analysis of scholars.
The U.S.-Japan Joint Statement talked about Taiwan for the first time in 52 years. Scholars analyzed that when the U.S. and Japan talked about CCP issues, they believed that the CCP has posed a challenge to the "international order based on international rules."
Ming Juzheng, Honorary Professor of the Department of Political Affairs of National Taiwan University: "Look carefully at the US-Japan statement. It is, it should be said, it is a re-examination of the current stage of US-Japan security and a renewed advancement." "The first in the past 50 years. When I talked about Taiwan once, did you say it was very special? Of course it was very special, because the CCP, I just said that during this period of time, the actions in the Taiwan Strait have been too active, and this threat is great throughout the world."
Guo Yuren, a professor at the Institute of China and Asia-Pacific Studies at Sun Yat-sen University: “The United States and Japan have very consistent perceptions of the CCP’s threat. This consensus is very consistent. Especially since the CCP’s implementation on February 1st, the implementation of this new sea in the East China Sea The police law has a direct security impact on Japan."
Ming Juzheng also analyzed that if Russia takes action against Ukraine, the CCP will have an opportunity to take advantage of it, and China and Russia can use this horn to advance. The United States must avoid fighting on two fronts in Europe and Asia. The Taiwan Strait issue is also critical.
Ming Juzheng, Honorary Professor of the Department of Political Affairs of National Taiwan University: "(U.S. and Japan) they said in particular that we are very concerned and very concerned about the peace and stability of the Taiwan Strait, so of course we will send a signal to tell the CCP that you can’t touch Taiwan Strait at this time."
Guo Yuren believes that after the U.S.-Japan joint statement, the CCP may increase the intensity of its provocations against Taiwan and Japan, but the U.S. has long been prepared.
After the U.S.-Japan summit, the Japanese flag was raised at the residence of the Japanese representative in Taiwan, and Keiji Furuya, the chairman of the "Japan-China Congress", tweeted that "I was worried about China before, so I didn't hang it." In this regard, Guo Yuren said that Japan’s approach is to echo the joint statement after the US-Japan summit, and directly challenge the most taboo part of Sino-Japanese relations, and begin to change its diplomatic attitude towards Taiwan. However, under the U.S.-Japan alliance, Japan is relatively passive. Analysis of the Japanese side will look at the attitude of the CCP and decide the next step.

Blinken condemns Hong Kong government, EU: Sentencing democrats to affect EU-China relations
A Hong Kong court sentenced 9 democrats, the US Congress and Administration "China Committee", US Secretary of State Blincoln, EU "Foreign and Security Policy" Senior Representative Borrell, The British Foreign Secretary Raab all issued statements condemning it.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken issued a statement on the 16th, condemning the sentence of Hong Kong democrats such as Martin Lee and Li Zhiying. He said that the decision was politically motivated and that the authorities in Beijing and Hong Kong only targeted Hong Kong people who exercise basic freedoms such as protected rights, peaceful assembly and speech.
Brinken also condemned the sentence on Twitter and attached the label "Standing with Hong Kong" on the tweet.
On Friday, a statement signed by the Chairman and Co-Chairmen of the Executive Committee on China Issues of the US Congress wrote:
"This is obviously a political prosecution. Few people predict that there will be political prisoners in Hong Kong one day. Sadly now, more people will be bound by the strict "National Security Law." Hong Kong's democracy and freedom are guaranteed by international treaties. Continue to be violated. Freedom of the press is also rapidly declining. The signal sent today (the trial of Hong Kong democrats) will have a serious impact on US-China relations. We urge the Biden administration and the international community to hold those responsible for political prosecutions in Hong Kong accountable ."
The office of the European Union's (EU) High Representative for Foreign and Security Policy Borrell also issued a statement on the 16th warning that the sentence of imprisonment for Hong Kong pan-democrats not only violated Hong Kong's fundamental freedoms, but also "affected the relationship between the EU and the Chinese Communist Party."
British Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab called on the CCP to stop prosecuting Hong Kong pro-democracy activists on the 16th. Raab said on Twitter, "The Hong Kong authorities have targeted the pro-democrats who take the lead. This behavior must stop. We continue to stand with the people of Hong Kong."

Former US naval intelligence officer: Beijing is advancing the timetable for occupying Asia
A former senior U.S. Navy intelligence officer said that since the United States has not yet escaped the impact of the epidemic, it has recently undergone another government change. The Chinese Communist Party now sees a "window of opportunity" that can accelerate its plans to expand its territory in Asia.
James Fanell was the director of intelligence for the U.S. Pacific Fleet. In an interview with New Tang Dynasty Television (NTD) on April 9, he said, "This is a very dangerous time for the region, because Beijing is seeking to advance their strategy and timetable."
In recent weeks, the Chinese regime has gathered more than 240 militia vessels on the disputed Whitsun Reef in the South China Sea. The sea area is located in the 200-mile (322 kilometers) exclusive economic zone of the Philippines. The Philippines filed a diplomatic protest to Beijing and dispatched a naval task force to patrol the area. In the past week, the United States has assembled its warships in the area, including an aircraft carrier strike group and an amphibious force. According to the Philippines, as of April 13, only a few Chinese ships remained in Oxbow Reef.
Fanel is now a government researcher at the Geneva Centre for Security Policy. He said that Beijing's actions are a test for the Biden administration. He said that if the regime does not see "strong resistance from the Biden administration," it may speed up plans for military operations against Taiwan, the South China Sea and the East China Sea.
In the past year, Beijing has stepped up its military aggression against Taiwan, sending military aircraft close to this autonomous island almost every day. On April 12, the CCP regime sent a record 25 aircraft, including fighter jets and bombers with nuclear warheads, into the air defense identification zone on Taiwan Island.
Adm. Philip Davidson, commander of the US Indo-Pacific Command (INDOPACOM), told the Senate in March that the Chinese Communist regime might invade Taiwan in the next six years. He mentioned the Chinese regime’s Military progress, and the CCP’s growing self-confidence in the region.
At a confirmation hearing held later that month, Admiral John Aquilino, who was nominated to replace Davidson as the commander of INDOPACOM, refused to set a timetable for when the CCP will launch an offensive, but he said, The threat of CCP invasion "is much closer than most people think."
Speaking of the two admiral’s warnings, Fanell said: “When they say this, they should really wake people up and draw attention.”
Although analysts predict that the Chinese Communist regime will not take action before the Beijing Winter Olympics in February 2022, Fanell's attitude towards Beijing is "precautions before they occur."
He said: "All signs indicate that they are very, very close to taking action against Taiwan."
Fanel believes that Chinese military officials and other hardliners within the Chinese Communist Party are "screaming" and believe that now is the best time to control Taiwan. He said that if the CCP waits until after 2022, they will face the risk of the Republican Party regaining control of the House of Representatives and the White House afterwards, thereby causing the United States to adopt a "harder line."
He said that these CCP officials believe that "we can't wait too long because the United States is rearming itself and updating its equipment" in order to defeat the CCP's strategy of aggression against Taiwan. "These controversies are ongoing (within the CCP)."
He added: "I am very worried that China (the CCP) may decide to take action soon."
Fanell believes that in order to stop the CCP, the United States needs to be more confident in diplomacy, point out the predatory behavior of the CCP regime, and increase its efforts to counter the CCP’s propaganda. On the military front, the United States should deploy troops in the South China Sea and other areas to "stop the CCP's actions."
He said, "Our goal is to tell the People's Republic of China, Xi Jinping and the Communist Party of China that you cannot bully others just because you are a big country. This is not the way the world works, and we will not tolerate this."
"The CCP government needs to understand that if they really try to do what they think they can do, then they will pay a high price for it," Fanell said.

Canada supports Taiwan to contribute to the world order
On April 16, Chen Wenyi, representative of the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Canada, contributed a book to iPolitics, praising the recent Canadian multi-party support for Taiwan. He said that at a time when Taiwan is facing increasingly serious security threats, Canada's support will contribute to a stronger world order.
Taiwan-Canada relations are more valued at the highest level in Canada
Chen Wenyi said that these days, the relationship between Taiwan and Canada has become news. Among them, the Halifax Security Forum, the upcoming World Health Assembly, and Taiwan's handling of the epidemic all have outstanding features. Regardless of politics, this week's (events) clearly demonstrated the degree of enthusiasm of the multi-party support for Taiwan.
Starting from the Halifax Security Forum, Chen Wenyi expressed welcome to the forum to recognize President Tsai Ing-wen as "a respected international leader, Taiwan's first female president and a person who firmly supports democracy in the world."
Chen Wenyi said that Congress has further unanimously confirmed that Tsai Ing-wen will be the "ideal candidate" for the "John McCain Public Service Leadership Award." Although the list of winners has not yet been announced, this bill confirms the strength of Taiwan-Canada relations in Canada's highest political system.
Chen Wenyi also thanked MP Michael Chong for raising this issue, and thanked Prime Minister Trudeau for reiterating his support for Taiwan. During the questioning period, Congress debated Canada's support for Taiwan's meaningful participation in the World Health Assembly (WHA) meeting.
Zhuang Wenhao said that Taiwan has achieved success in fighting the epidemic. During the epidemic, Taiwan only caused about 1,000 cases and 10 deaths. With this in mind, he asked whether the Prime Minister would reconfirm Canada’s support for Taiwan’s participation in the upcoming World Health Assembly.
The Prime Minister reiterated his support is an important contribution to global health
Trudeau replied: “As a government, we have consistently supported Taiwan’s meaningful participation in international forums.” “Taiwan’s role as an observer in World Health Assembly meetings is in the interest of global health.”
Chen Wenyi said in the article that (Taiwan) urgently needs such support. Although Taiwan is one of the most successful countries in dealing with the epidemic, due to unfair political pressure, we have been excluded from the scope of the WHO's functions. This means that we are largely unable to obtain information and contribute to information sharing and the development of global health policies.
He said that in addition to expressly opposing the World Health Organization (WHO) charter, this exclusion has left a dangerous gap in the global health system. Taiwan’s warning of the emergence of a virus in Wuhan was ignored in late December 2019, the most obvious proof of this.
Chen Wenyi said that Trudeau reiterated Canada's support for Taiwan to restore its observer status in the World Health Organization, which is an important contribution to the development of relations between Taiwan and Canada and to the broader global health.
International community support is vital to Taiwan
He said that Trudeau's words have been echoed by the international community more than ever before. For example, the Biden administration has shown strong support for Taiwan in cooperation with the bipartisan US Congress. Whether as a member of the international community, or as an important contribution to international and multilateral forums. Former U.S. Senator Chris Dodd just concluded his successful visit to Taiwan in the name of President Biden. He met with President Tsai and other senior Taiwan officials to discuss the development of peace and prosperity in the region. Cooperation.
"The strong, multi-party international support and participation from Canada, the United States and other countries is at a critical juncture. Taiwan is facing increasing threats to the security and status of the international community. Therefore, like-minded partners work together to support The same democracy is essential to building a stronger, rules-based international order."
Chen Wenyi hopes that this week's developments will provide a brighter future for Taiwan's important contribution to the international community. He said: "In addition to our anti-epidemic performance, Taiwan is a mature democracy with the same values as Canada. We have made important contributions to the global supply chain, especially in the high-tech manufacturing sector. Importantly, one of the largest economies in the Indo-Pacific region. Taiwan is such a partner, and its participation in the international community is beneficial to everyone’s interests."
Chen Wenyi emphasized that Taiwan’s inclusion as an observer of the World Health Assembly helps support our ability to build a better and healthier world. However, if we are allowed to participate as equal partners in the fields of climate change, global trade, international civil aviation, and combating transnational crime, Taiwan can provide more help. To help Taiwan integrate to a greater extent, Canada can support Taiwan in upgrading the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), and sign the mutually beneficial Foreign Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement. Agreement" (Foreign Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement, abbreviated as FIPA).
Chen Wenyi believes that although the partnership between Taiwan and Canada is strong, there is still room for growth. He hopes that Taiwan and Canada can continue to develop and promote stronger relations.
