List of people banned from entering Macau lawful
The Secretary for Security Wong Sio Chak reiterated that the list of people prohibited from entering Macau ahead of Xi Xinping’s visit is lawful and aims to ensure security in the region. “We have a name list and we have professional knowledge and evaluation to decide who to reject. Of course they have the right to lodge an appeal, and the police will continue to review our work performance and to make evaluations,” he stated, as quoted by TDM English News.
Furthermore, he reiterated that the list is drafted while taking into consideration that certain people may represent a threat to Macau’s security. Amid heightened security during Xi Jinping’s two-day visit on December 19 and 20, a group of about 14 Hong Kong activists and four Apple Daily reporters were refused entry to Macau.
