Security law will ensure prosperity for Hong Kong, say analysts

BEIJING (China Daily/ANN): China's proposed national security legislation for Hong Kong will not only keep the city politically stable but also secure its standing as a global financial centre, analysts said.

Analysts interviewed by China Daily said that the law -- prohibiting acts of secession, subversion, terrorism and conspiracy with external force -- would adhere to the principle of "one country, two systems", instead of undermining it as claimed by some politicians in the United States and the United Kingdom.
