The president of the Federation of Asian Bishops’ Conferences, Cardinal Charles Maung Bo of Yangon, Myanmar, spoke of his ‘profound concern about the situation for human rights and threats to religious freedom in Hong Kong,’ saying that Cardinal Zen’s arrest reveals that it is now ‘a police state.’
“Given the customary silence of the Holy See on repression in China, Cardinal Bo has emerged as a singular voice of truth in the region.”
