Comment on “In Constant Search for Support”

On April 3, 2024, a comment of Professor Maiko Ichihara of the Graduate School of Law was published in the Asia Democracy Chronicles article, “In Constant Search for Support.” This article is about the situation of Hong Kong democracy activists outside of mainland China, such as in Tokyo, Japan, following the announcement of Hong Kong’s National Security Law. Professor Ichihara noted that the strategy chosen by Hong Kong activists is the “suitable style of communication” in Japan. Regarding Japan’s official position on Hong Kong, Professor Ichihara emphasized that Japan stands out from the rest of Asia and that the erosion of democracy in Hong Kong poses a diplomatic challenge to the Japanese government.
