3/ Police also dressed like bandits and pointed guns at civilians, putting ppl in peril in #HKPoliceState. But suppression only sparks more resistance. Resolute and determined, #hkers will not kowtow to this totalitarian regime of #China.

1/ We also send a message to those in prison that HKers won’t forget why we are here. We will carry on with our determination in the new year. However, tyranny is afraid of the will of the people. #Beijing chooses not to answer it bravely, but cowardly suppress it.

At the turn of #newyear2020, 1.03 million #hkers took to the street. As one of the largest demonstration since June last year, #hongkongprotestes want to show our persistent thrust for democracy and freedoms in the city under the tyrannical rule of #CCP.
2106
Just as Martin Luther King Jr. said, "The ultimate tragedy isn’t oppression & cruelty by the bad people but the silence over that by the good people.” #HKers have chosen to give a resounding no to Beijing’s oppression, & we will continue our cause for democracy in #NewYear2020.
2107
But in newyear, I see hope in HKers & other freedom lovers of the world. HKers do not fight alone. This is a global fight against the authoritarian expansion of CCP worldwide. We don’t want basic freedoms, human rights & democratic systems fall prey to #beijing’s manipulation.
2108
2019 carries special significance to people of HK. #HKers are all awakened from our ordinary lives and search for justice. We stand up tall to reclaim our city, which is now nibbled by the authoritarian regime. Just a few hours before #NewYear2020, it will be a tough year for us.
2109
3/ We will not forget their names. In the new year, #hongkongers will continue our cause for democracy and freedoms. And I will continue to seek international support and pass human rights bills on Hong Kong.

2/ As this movement is leaderless, I think this honor belongs to #HKProtesters. 2019 is the watershed in #hongkong's history. In the past 6 months, #HKers have been fighting hard with tears, sweat and blood. 6000 of us were arrested, 1,000 persecuted and more crackdowns underway.
2111
1/ This is my honour to be chosen by Financial Times @FT as one of 50 people who shaped the decade, and, more importantly, as the only #hongkonger on the list.

Thank you for your support. Unfortunately the court has also banned me from traveling to the US despite several invitations for me to speak at American universities. I look forward to meeting you in Washington when I regain my freedom of movement once again. twitter.com/MarshaBlackbur…

3/ It was reported that officers in the DoJ are under political pressure when handling cases of protesters. Hence it is doubtful whether DoJ can really distance itself from the prosecutors.
