overseas NGO 境外非政府组织

China adopted its first-ever law on overseas NGOs on Thursday to facilitate their legal operations on the mainland but to combat any activity that might harm national security.

中国28日通过了史上首部境外非政府组织管理法，以便于这些组织在大陆合法运行，同时打击任何可能危及国家安全的行为。

The 54-point law clarifies the registration process, operational rules and liabilities of overseas NGOs, as well as measures for their operations in China.

该法共有54条，规定了境外非政府组织在中国运营的登记和备案、活动规范、法律责任以及监督管理。
