After Beijing imposed the Hong Kong National Security Law in June 2020, the Hong Kong government began to require local schools to teach national security education, that is, political and patriotic communist indoctrination from the mainland. Two years later, it’s being fully implemented.

In July, eight universities in Hong Kong announced that national security courses will be listed as compulsory subjects starting next semester. Likewise, Hong Kong’s high school students must participate in student exchange programs with mainland China during their three-year study.
