more than 2 months after the 1M march against the proposed extradition bill on 9 June, this campaign has become a global event.
today, in more than 30 major cities including london, NY, paris…there are similar events supporting HKers. from initially lennon wall in schools, to city centres
almost in every occasion, big group of mainlanders also joined, chanting slogans like : hk is part of china / i am yr grandpa!
certainly a big opportunity for the world to see the mindset / behavior / quality of prc people!!
i feel that most chinese r still deeply conditioned by the belief that children r their personal property. they “own” the children, therefore can beat them up / do whatever they want.
it is understandable why so many mainlanders r jealous about HK, such a prosperous int’l city that offers so much freedom to citizens that most prc people can never imagine. that is why they keep coming, even though property price is skyhigh, and the city is really crowded.
those arrogant / impolite anti protesters fully identify with their prc citizen identity so much that they r so eager to remind Hkers that prc is hk’s grandpa.
well, be a good grandpa then. who will run away from a good grandpa who loves his grand children?
why do HKers still cling onto the good old days before the handover even though hk was only a british colony?
that’s because to a child, what matters most is not whether the mom is a biological / foster one , but whether the mom loves the child.
demonstrate yr love towards all your children, let them see u have their best interests in heart, they will sure run to u . coercion does not work.
may the very unconscious / obscured ones realise asap the most powerful weapon : LOVE , not tanks, guns, soldiers…
it is with LOVE that a country / regime can sustain long term prosperity
as a chinese saying goes : love yr people as yr son
everlasting ancient wisdom
HKers, regardless of their age / occupation, r getting more mature, wise, united, embracing,.. despite differences in approach.
we certainly deserve better grandpa.
May we all evolve / transform fast.
Blessings be to all
