進入 2020 年代,中共的鎮壓不再止於國境之內。從歐美到東南亞,從留學生到流亡港人,「長臂執法」、「警僑服務站」、海外懸賞令的頻繁出現,標誌著中國威權正在輸出恐懼。這是 21 世紀最值得警惕的人權威脅之一。
「110 海外」與秘密警僑服務站
2022 年 9 月,西班牙人權組織「保護衛士」(Safeguard Defenders)發布報告《110 Overseas》,揭露中國公安在 53 個國家、設有逾 100 個「警僑服務站」。這些站點以「服務僑胞辦理證件」為名,實則執行勸返、監控、施壓異議人士及其家屬等任務。荷蘭、愛爾蘭、加拿大、英國、美國等多國政府已下令關閉境內站點並啟動刑事調查。
對流亡港人的 100 萬港元懸賞
2023 年 7 月、12 月與 2024 年 12 月,香港警務處國家安全處先後對 19 名流亡海外的港人發出通緝令,每人懸賞港幣 100 萬元(約 13 萬美元),包括羅冠聰、許智峯、劉祖廸、朱牧民、袁弓夷、霍嘉誌、鍾翰林等。當局並懲罰其在港親屬:父母、兄妹被警方傳喚、凍結資產。
留學生的恐懼
在英美澳加,公開支持香港、新疆、西藏議題的中國留學生屢遭騷擾:學生會內線監控、人肉搜索、向其在中國的父母施壓。澳洲安全情報局(ASIO)2024 年報告指中國是「對留學生最大的境外干預威脅」。
跨國綁架案
除桂民海、王炳章、孫大午等案件外,2017 年中國異議商人肖建華於香港四季酒店被綁架;2017 年新疆維吾爾人因家屬在海外發聲被「連坐」拘押;2023 年泰國數名維吾爾難民被泰國當局移交中國,成為國際難民法上嚴重倒退。
結語:當邊界不再保護人
跨境鎮壓的存在,宣告了一個冷酷事實——對於中共,地球已不再有真正的「境外」。但同樣的事實也意味著,民主國家若不採取明確、協調的行動,自由世界本身將被一寸一寸侵蝕。對抗跨境鎮壓,不僅是為流亡者,也為自由世界自己的尊嚴而戰。
Entering the 2020s, the CCP's repression no longer stops at China's borders. From Europe and North America to Southeast Asia, from overseas students to exiled Hongkongers, the proliferation of "long-arm enforcement," "overseas police service stations," and bounties on dissidents marks the global export of Chinese authoritarian fear. It is one of the most alarming human rights threats of the 21st century.
"110 Overseas" and Clandestine Police Stations
In September 2022, the Madrid-based human rights NGO Safeguard Defenders released the report 110 Overseas, exposing more than 100 covert Chinese police "service stations" in 53 countries. Ostensibly providing consular help, they in fact pressure dissidents to return, surveil overseas Chinese, and intimidate families. The Netherlands, Ireland, Canada, the UK and US have ordered closures and opened criminal investigations.
HK$1 Million Bounties on Exiled Hongkongers
In July 2023, December 2023, and December 2024, Hong Kong's National Security Department issued arrest warrants and HK$1 million (~US$130,000) bounties on 19 exiled activists, including Nathan Law, Ted Hui, Finn Lau, Anna Kwok, Elmer Yuen, Frances Hui, and Tony Chung. Authorities have also retaliated against their relatives in Hong Kong—summoning parents and siblings for questioning and freezing assets.
Fear Among Overseas Students
Across the UK, US, Australia and Canada, Chinese students who publicly support Hong Kong, Uyghur or Tibetan causes have faced harassment: surveillance through Chinese Students and Scholars Associations, doxxing, and pressure on parents back home. Australia's ASIO 2024 report names China as "the most significant source of foreign interference targeting international students."
Transnational Abductions
Beyond the cases of Gui Minhai, Wang Bingzhang and Sun Dawu, in 2017 Chinese tycoon Xiao Jianhua was abducted from Hong Kong's Four Seasons Hotel. From 2017 onward, Uyghurs in Xinjiang have been detained as collective punishment for relatives speaking abroad. In 2023 several Uyghur refugees were extradited from Thailand to China—a serious regression in international refugee law.
Conclusion: When Borders Stop Protecting People
The very existence of transnational repression announces a chilling fact: for the CCP, there is no longer any meaningful "abroad." But the same fact means that without coordinated and determined action by democracies, the free world itself will be eroded inch by inch. Confronting transnational repression is not only a battle for exiles—it is a battle for the dignity of the free world.
