French-based Hongkonger, went through 51 hours of bitterness to fly back for voting
(16 Aug) As she wants to remain anonymous, we will call her Anonyme, a female artist who was born in Hong Kong. The art industry is not appreciated in Hong Kong, but it is well perceived in France. At the end of February this year, she arrived in France and lived there for five months. The art village provided food and accommodation, and the government provided monthly living expenses. What’s more exciting is that she met a local boy and they were flirting. However, she didn’t want to go into detail, “Maybe people are talking about me colluding with foreign forces. I don't want to be accused of colluding with a foreign penis." She vowed that she would not leave unless there was an election. if there is, she will go through all the troubles to fulfill her civil duty - vote for the legislative councils.
//There were a lot of people at the line-up, and I begged every single one of them to let me go first.
//“You (Carrie Lam) said the Hongkongers are not cooperating? It seems that you are the one who doesn't want to cooperate. Look at me, how well I am cooperating and desperately risking my life to return to vote to fulfill my civic duty!”
//Carrie Lam takes away my legal rights!
//the Paris Municipales election at the end of June... Voting happened as usual during the epidemic, while the local government warned of health risks.
//Whether or not to cancel should be decided by all Hong Kong voters and those who participated in the election.
//It took her 51 hours to go from her Paris residence to her home in Hong Kong.
//Seems like I went to outer space for five months and now my hometown was lost.
