I just spoke with the friend who visited @joshuawongcf earlier. A detail not disclosed in news accounts thus far is that he’s forced to use the surgical masks at hand — which aren’t even that effective in blocking light — as makeshift blindfolds. This is a human-rights violation.

In that 30min that Google died, my live feed was flooded by fiends who couldn’t work without Google (myself too). It makes me really think about what happens if internet is shutdown in HK or the Great Fire Wall becomes a thing in HK. We are not that far from that day.

The love for a place cannot be forced. Even if you point cameras at people while playing a national anthem that’s not ours— we are still not going to love the PRC. Let Hong Kong be Hong Kong. 香港勁抽♥️

Update: the site HKchronicles cannot be accessed from anywhere right now. And as in HK, upon visit it shows "502 Bad Gateway", meaning that it is not "site-blocked", but the reason why it can't be accessed is unknown.

🥺 Thank you so much @DavidAltonHL for raising the need to expand the BN(O) scheme, and for mentioning me. Exile is unbearable as it takes away your identity and the connection to your home. But this made today one of those few days where I feel supported and encouraged.

3/The people of Hong Kong are brave enough to come out even under the horrifying regime. Under NSL, the Cultural Revolution-style purges and daily police violence, we have a hundred reasons to back down and give up, but we choose not to do so.

Today 7 years ago, inside the Civic Square of the SAR govt building, I thought Hong Kong would change for the better, but I’ve only seen it changed for the worse since then. But I still believe it’d change for the better— not now, not soon, but eventually.

Please protect yourself. We are all trying to find ways out of this dire straits, but when it comes to your personal information and safety, it is always better to be safe. Find trustworthy sources, protect yourself.

HK friends, for the avoidance of doubt: anyone telling you to try to seek sanctuary in a foreign Consulate and that they have “made arrangements” or can “protect you” is not speaking truth. They are endangering you and it is outrageously irresponsible. PLEASE DO NOT. 😢

“Instead of being ungrateful for what we have had, we are, on the contrary, very grateful for being raised in Hong Kong... Because we are so grateful, we cannot stand our home being sabotaged by a regime that cannot understand how amazing the city is and why it is.”

Pleasure to meet with Jens Galschiot, the artist that made the “Pillar of Shame”, in #Rome during @ipacglobal meeting and G20. Spending 4 years walking pass the pillar every morning in HKU, it’s upsetting to see what has been happening.

“If HK becomes exactly like China … there is no need for HK to exist,” said Baek, S Korea’s consul general to HK. This kind of narrative is disturbing. HK is more than just its economic values. Hong Kong is much more than a goose that laid golden eggs -- it is our home.

‼️I think this is a REALLY IMPORTANT moment for the #HK democracy movement. Immensely proud of @ipacglobal ’s HK lead @chungchingkwong calling out the failure of the democratic world to defend Hong Kong’s way of life and autonomy.
