It's difficult to see what's commendable in effectively approving that people may evade Taiwanese justice by hiding in HK just for the sake scoring PR points against the mainland at a time when elections are coming up.
This is the worst level of populism, frankly, and transparently insincere.
It may actually backfire because that bill was partly brought forward because of the outrage caused by doing exactly that (evading Taiwanese justice by fleeing to HK).
