1/ In the new year, #Beijing and #HKgov choose not to answer #Hongkongers’ demands. Instead, they plan to escalate #policebrutality against HKers by arming #hkpolice with new electroshock weapons like stun guns and net guns. scmp.com/news/hong-kong…
On this day 2yrs ago, 2019-06-12, #Hongkongers surrounded the Hong Kong Legislative Council to block the passage of the "China Extradition Law". Riot police fired tear gas into the crowd, nearly causing a stampede, the 1st mobilization of riot police to suppress HKers since 2014

3. Hardship is temporary. With #Hongkongers’ unwavering spirit of resistance, Joshua is determined that #Hkers will not surrender our fight for justice and hope.
#Hongkongers starting to gather on the streets, in defiance of the #NationalSecurityLaw & heavy #HKPolice presence. We fear, but we can't afford to let fear overcome us. We will continue marching on till the day we see the dawn, for freedom is not free.

#Hongkongers are hanging in here. We are not giving up our fight for freedom, human rights, rule of law and a democratic political system to safeguarding these values and institutions. We are sure we are and shall not be alone. #StandWithHK #FightForFreedom

As one of the #Hongkongers facing political oppression, I stand by the G7 leaders’ statement and call for the immediate release of #Navalny and other #RussianProtesters. No one should face assassination or prosecution because they dare to voice out. #FreeNavalny twitter.com/AFP/status/135…
Today 6/29 marks 1 yr of the death of Lo Hiu-yan, a 21 year old university student who jumped from the 24th floor, leaving behind a message in red in the hallway: "Dear #Hongkongers, Even though the struggle drags on, we must never forget the ideals we hold, we must persist. ->

Even state TV employees went on strike in #Belarus to protest against #policebrutality & election frauds. Here is today's morning TV show. Both as the oppressed under tyranny, #Hongkongers #StandWithBelarus in their fight for democracy. #жывебеларусь

2/ Although the law is highly contentious in #Hongkong, and widespread backlash broke out when #HKgov introduced the law in 2003, Beijing this time deliberately chooses to ram through this unpopular law by completely ignoring the will of #Hongkongers.

🎄From summer to winter, #Hongkongers have been fighting hard for a better city for our next generations. To light up our hope in the new year, @demosisto has designed two sets of X’mas cards. 👉🏻bit.ly/34wY7Ae
A time lapse of the first of the #HongKongProtests, on 2019-06-09, attended by 1.03 million #Hongkongers, out of Hong Kong's population of 7mn, to protest the imposition of the "Extradition Law" which would allow arbitrary "extradition" to China on China's terms. #FreeHongKong

3. Worse still, he may face graver charges if #police crack his clients' phones w/ phone hacking tools like #Cellebrite & find any suspicious conversations. He hopes his bail can be granted & #12hkyouths can come back safe. After all, #Hongkongers hope he can be released soon.
In Mongkok, #HKPolice is arresting #Hongkongers for commemorating the 31st anniv. of #TiananmenSquareMassacre. This is the 1st yr that 🇨🇳#CCP & #HKGov banned #TiananmenVigil in #HongKong. HKers still go out en masse tonight, holding memorials at many locations across the city.

5. Not to mention that dissidents in exile, #Hongkongers or even #Taiwanese overseas might be covered by the secret deal & extradited to #China’s courts. In fact, #hkpolice has already used the new law to arrest dissidents in exile and also a US citizen. edition.cnn.com/2020/08/01/chi…

5/ #Hongkongers are not merely the people living in #HK or speaking Cantonese, but also those who strive to safeguard liberal values and democracy that we all cherish and #StandwithHK under authoritarian oppression, no matter who you are and where you live.
Our beloved Grandma Wong shows her determination & bravery once again in #HongKong. She has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by UK’s All-Party Parliamentary Group on HK. She is a representation the heroic spirit of #Hongkongers and our love for freedom. #womenshistory t.co/XZExUmE2Mv

4. Clearly it is the largest election fraud in #HK’s history. But #Beijing cannot overturn the strong mandate of 610,000 #Hongkongers who had cast their ballots the city's first-ever #hkprimaries early this month.

2/ Learnt from our experiences, #Hongkongers share some secret remedies to combat the virus - wearing masks, staying at home, travelling less and being critical about the government’s words.
Battalions of #HKPolice fully armed w/ riot gear march into #Cityplaza to arrest #Hongkongers gathered in the shopping mall to sing #GloryToHK, the protest anthem. In the name of "enforcing social distancing". Social distancing rules are #HKGov's tools of suppressing #HKProtests
Wishing everyone a #MerryChristmas is an oxymoron in an occupied territory. #Hongkongers, stay strong. May the Christmas spirit of anticipation, of light coming into a world of darkness, breathe hope into every Hongkonger who is suffering in despair. t.co/1oqnBkRHr2

8. Given the unreliability of the test and high potential of DNA abuse for surveillance, #Hongkongers will boycott the proposed universal testing. We urge #HKgov to halt the plan and take other effective measures, such as full border seal, to curb the virus.

5. However, fear will not scare me and all freedom-loving #Hongkongers off. We will continue our fight and let our next generations live in freedoms without fear.

A rally will be held by groups in Ottawa on Feb 4 to protest against the #CCP continued crackdown on the #Uyghurs , #Tibetan and #Hongkongers, and to express strong discontent with the #Beijing2022 Winter Olympics.
