1817 | New Jade Shopping Arcade, Chai Wan

In the face of a tyranny, silent acquiescence is no different from outright subservience regarding Beijing’s recent moves to impose the National Security Law in Hong Kong, which might include controversial policies like extradition to China and National Security education.

The further erosion of freedom prompted outcry in Hong Kong and many more to take to the streets, including protesting at shopping malls.

“There is no rioters, only tyranny,” people chanted once again at New Jade Shopping Arcade in Chai Wan on May 23.

Among the numerous protests upon which the slogan has been chanted, the atmosphere is exceptional this time. Over 100 protestors were packed in the tiny shopping mall, waving, chanting, as if bidding farewell to the charade of democracy, or perhaps, to an old order. Or, could this as well be the painful birth of a new nation of Hongkongers?

False Alarm of Police Arrival Alerts Protesters

1947 | IFC, Central
In defiance against the National Security Law, netizens staged a “Shop with you” protest in IFC shopping centre. There was a period of nervousness owing to news of police arrival, which was later found to be a false alarm. The citizens continued to sing the protest anthem “Glory to Hong Kong” and chanted slogans, including “Down with CPC”, in opposition of heightened control of Beijing in Hong Kong affairs.

Some citizens displayed old newspapers about human right atrocities committed by the CPC and the Hong Kong police, including news about the Tiananmen Massacre. Others waved flags and displayed posters, one written “Please help to protect Hong Kong.” The number “527” appeared in both cases, a reminder to citizens to join the 5.27 General March against the National Security Law.
