When December hits, most feel giddy because Christmas is just around the corner. But the December in #HongKong in 2019 was far from peaceful. The struggle for #freedom went on, and we had a memorable white Christmas - filled with #teargas.

澳洲人權學生領袖Drew Pavlou被捕，英國警方羈留23小時

就讀昆士蘭州大學的人權領袖Drew，7月21日以擅自闖入外交區域為由，被拘留超過23小時。Drew在帖文中指出，羈留期間律師無從探訪，手機被沒收，直至20小時以後才獲得5分鐘通話機會。他至今已被獲釋，但仍可能面臨7年的監禁。事緣他在領事館外，穿上了”Where is Peng Shuai”的襯衫，示威中共在西藏以及東突厥的人權問題。領事館人員獲悉後，向英國警方發送了有關炸彈襲擊的郵件，指控Drew意圖恐襲倫敦中國領事館。

同時在7月10日，香港思源與Free Tibet，在溫布頓球場，舉行了”Where is Peng Shuai”，為期兩日的示威。示威者穿上了”Where is Peng Shuai”的T恤，期間遭受保安阻撓，更被截停搜身。溫布頓假以「政治中立」助紂為虐，任由中資Oppo和支持國安法的滙豐銀行踐踏人權。

由此可見，中共統戰部佈天羅地網，阻礙異見者發聲。海外港人因此必須密切關注任何來自中共的假消息、造謠等分化行為。同時與港人支持者共進退，持續為中共的人權問題發聲。

TLDR: 就算失望，不能絕望。共勉之。

This is not a post recounting the details of the #UmbrellaRevolution so much as what it stood for and how it informed the #fightforfreedom in #HongKong. For years, #HKers had been struggling to defend our rights and values from the #CCP. The #UmbrellaMovement in 2014 was for many an awakening to the root cause of the social problems in #HK - the lack of a popularly mandated government as ours was (and is) but a #Beijing puppet.

The experience of 2014 produced the now much more mainstream indigenous ideology and inspired new protest tactics in 2019. Hong Kong has never stopped evolving to cope with challenges and does not intend to stop now. "Be water", the city-wide pro-democracy movement in 2019 taught us, even though it may be dark and the suffering ahead seem endless, don't lose heart. We will remember who we are, what we stand for, persevere and outlive the tyrant.
