THREAD:
1. @ForeignPolicy published an article by former special assistant to President Ronald Reagan @Doug_Bandow, suggesting a more engaging policy to China. Since he mentioned my comments, I'd like to respond to a few of his points on the grand strategy to China.

For the past 4 months, we have had numerous nights bursting into tears and worries. But we have never been so proud of Hong Kong, of HongKongers. Today, we stand out and fight against the totalitarian power together.

"The people will not forget."
A participant of June 4 rally in London wore this shirt, with an iconic picture of "tank man."
As Milan Kundera aptly put it, "The struggle of man against power is the struggle of memory against forgetting."
We are here to preserve the memory.

4. Last but not least, I’d like to take the opportunity to thank everyone who has supported and advised me, and I hope that every Hongkonger, no matter where you are, is safe. -END

The #PillarOfShame is removed, while memory lives.
We must remember what happened on June 4th, 1989.

//Previously, the city, endlessly obliging to its rotating clientele of businessmen and tourists, had seemed aloof and polite, like a hotel concierge. Now it had the vibe of a sweat-soaked busker, determined to play his music to all passersby.//

G7 should work together and hold China accountable. It's nothing to do with racism -- it's to protect individuals in Xinjiang and Hong Kong. Stop using "anti-racism" as protection to dictators. Genocide deniers are not our allies.

This documentary shows you the democratic protests in Hong Kong and exiled activists' lives in the UK. We are all fighting at our positions and hoping to bring justice to Hong Kong.

HK police is celebrating the PRC national day by shooting a young activist. Big prize to communist party? Disgusting. Shame on the police. twitter.com/lihkg_forum/st…

Even though we know that the rule of law in Hong Kong is dead, reading this absurd news still hurts me. It's epic how these judges quote CCP propaganda instead of credible news outlets. They pretend Hong Kong is a democratic society and grant the govt unlimited power. Disgusting. twitter.com/holmeschan_/st…

1. Rumor says that the HK govt’s Chief Secretary (No.2) John Lee is the ideal person in Beijing’s eye and picked as the next Chief Executive. It will be a nightmare for Hong Kong people, and signal Xi's intention to continue exerting pressure on this authoritarian police state.

Exciting news -- I will be in the US in early December to present the US edition of "Freedom." The struggles of Hong Kong are an important lesson to the free world.
Let me know if you are interested in having a review, an event or an interview covering it!

After the meeting with @lisanandy, I had the privilege to meet with Minister for Asia @nadams. Both the incumbent party and the opposition are concerned by the ongoing human rights violations in HongKong and Xinjiang and determined to act. Very constructive and positive meetings. twitter.com/nathanlawkc/st…

Indeed.
Talked to many members of the parliament on this issue, and got very strong support on the idea of suspending the extradition treaty with Hong Kong.
Change is happening.

Many asked me how we can show our stance of supporting human rights around the world.
I answered:
Boycott #Beijing2022 Olympics.
We should not roll the red carpet for the Chinese Communist totalitarian regime. twitter.com/ipacglobal/sta…

3. Our Ukrainian friends have been supporting our struggles against dictatorship. It’s time that we support their fight. Talk to your Ukrainian friends, shop Ukrainian products, follow the news, and most importantly, urge the international community to act.
