Conservative MP Michael Chong will be testifying before the United States Congress, where he will address Beijing’s transnational repression targeting critics of the regime living overseas and minorities oppressed in China.

In a hearing announcement, the U.S. Congressional-Executive Commission on China (CECC) said it has invited Mr. Chong to testify in Washington on Sept. 12. The invitation comes as the Chinese regime ramps up a campaign targeting diaspora communities and global critics of the communist leadership, the CECC said.
