humanity is often displayed during turbulent / challenging times. in face of great injustice, HKers united to say NO, in various ways.
some very moving scenes / events that happened in just few days recapped :
hundreds of people lined up to donate food coupons to protesters;
even when typhoon no. 8 was hoisted, many stood in the wind and rain for 6 hours to support those charged with “riot” outside a district court;
despite being pressured from the govt and other organisations, over 40K civil servants bravely gathered after work to voice out their requests;
security staff of high end shopping mall, shop keeper of convenience store, residents of estate near police station …stood up to refuse police entry;
flash mob of people working in financial sector gathered to show support;
people in taiwan donate hamlets to support HKers;…
just about an hour ago, police fired pepper balls to a pedestrian foot bridge near our neighbourhood without warning, when there were many passers by. conflicts escalating esp. when so many r emotionally charged.
meanwhile, there is rumour of curfew coming soon, and massive strike planned the day after tomorrow on 8/5 (monday)…
HKers r really writing history. it is our common goal that what we have enjoyed before 97 can be restored and maintained :
a govt that have the interest of its citizens at its heart;
a fair independent legal system;
a police force that protect rather than harm citizens;
a police force and judiciary structure that treated everyone fairly;
freedom of speech, gatherings, protest.. without the fear of being persecuted afterwards;
religious freedom;
physical safety;
free from the fear of being wrongly accused of something he/she did not say / do….
Justice and Light shall prevail, though we might need to go through some challenging periods.
HKers Add Oil
for we have the support from the world, even/ esp. from those of the mainland.
the leader might not need to change, but the mindset / method .. .
together we complete this mission impossible.
Blessings be to All
