1. The documentary “Winter on Fire” has been a documentary Hong Kong protestors are watching. We understand how it feels to have a threatening neighbour and people’s will being suppressed by authoritarian power.

The courage of Ukraine🇺🇦 changed the world’s attitude towards Putin. The protest in Hong Kong changed the world’s attitude towards Xi. Yet, we need change in action, in building a world that protects people from dictatorship. It’s been failing, and it’s time to stop the failure.

1. THREAD: Amid a series of strong UK responses — the Huawei ban and the suspension of its extradition treaty
with #HongKong among them — to growing signs of Chinese imperialism, @SecPompeo paid an important visit to London, where he and I had a great conversation yesterday.

Glad to chat with @SecPompeo again. The situation in Hong Kong has significantly worsened since our previous meeting in DC last May.
//Pompeo told reporters before the meeting that he expected to have "eye-opening and important discussions" with Law.//

The democratically elected legislative council member Roy Kwong was arrested during his on-site supervision tonight. He was pushed, charged by numerous polices, hit by baton and pepper sprayed. Solid proof of excessive police violence, esp. towards people’s representation.

POLICE state:
The police broke into a private property, conducted stop and search with this manner. You are ordered to kneel down even you are just trying to go home. Is that rule of law?
Clearly, it’s the police who destroyed our system.

The crowd chanted “CCP step down!” on the streets of Shanghai.
It’s been a few hours since the protests started and there’re no signs of a major escalation of the situation. Still, this is a VERY significant moment. twitter.com/whyyoutouzhele…

A Hongkonger was dragged into the PRC Consulate and beaten.
If the consulate staff responsible are not held accountable, Hongkongers would live in fear of being kidnapped and persecuted.

Universal truth, from a group of students at the Tiananmen Square in Beijing, 1989.
No dictatorship. Democracy now.

1. Thank you very much for all your support. It is my pleasure to gain the highest votes in the Time 100 Reader Poll this year. The result shows Hongkongers’ relentless passion for this city and our unwavering spirit of resistance.

1. I am thrilled to learn that I am part of the #TIME100 2020 list. It has been a tough year for me -- leaving my hometown and embarking on an exiled life. But with no regrets, I become more determined to commit myself to the intl advocacy front of the Hong Kong Protest.

Thank you for all my friends who came to the London rally yesterday in support of the #save12hkyouths campaign. Really thrilled to be able to give a speech in Cantonese to our beloved Hong Kong people again.
Some also vowed their support to #StandWithThailand. Democracy prevails

Virus outbreak— The failure of the western govts does not justify Chinese authoritarianism. If you want to draw a comparison to show how incapable your country is, look at TAIWAN — not China. Taiwan’s success builds on heavily doubting every information China is giving. It works.

The head of a arrested protester was kicked like a football by riot polices. They are just out of control.

1. After several interviews in 4 months, the Home Office has informed me that my asylum application is approved. The fact that I am wanted under the National Security Law shows that I am exposed to severe political persecution and am unlikely to return to Hong Kong without risk.

Rare scenes of protest in Hong Kong emerged: a group of citizens gathered in Central, the busiest commercial area, and held blank papers. Police arrived and protestors' IDs were marked. It's been a long time since protests are staged in the streets after NSL.

Beijing tries their every effort to halt the primary election of the pro-democracy camp. But the Hong Kong people will respond it with a firmer stance — we will exercise our freedom of expression to support our political representatives. Go VOTE! 🗳️

It was so touching to hear our Thai fellows chanting for Hong Kong.
"คืนเอกราชให้ฮ่องกง" (Kuen A-Ka-Rhat Hai Hong Kong) -- It means "return independence to Hong Kong."
People fighting for democracy and autonomy should support each other.

Many first aiders at #PolyU conducting humanitarian assistance are being locked down in the campus and facing attacks. The police have been arresting them to prevent proper medical treatment for people in need.
This is War Crime. Stop raiding in PolyU and let all to leave safely.

Merry Christmas!🎄
With everyone spending quality time with family, millions of refugees are forcefully separated from loved ones.
This is my third Christmas without my family, and it's especially disheartening when it's a time for joy and love.
Sending my regards to all of you.
