Hong Kong Netizens Boycott Made-in-China TV Series
ViuTV, a free-to-air TV channel in Hong Kong, broadcast a Chinese drama seriee called "Drug War" during their prime time since Feb 8, 2021. One week later on Feb 15, the TV station annnounced a change of program after facing strong opposition from Hong Kong netizens.
The Chinese drama, which has 30 episodes in total, has been boycotted by Hongkongers since its first release. Hong Kong netizens filled the facebook page of ViuTV with requests to remove the series and the hastag "#StopShowingDrugWar". The 45,000-membered activists group "Boycott TVB" has voiced support for the boycott. A recently established concern group has already gathered 3,500 likes within a week. Netizens also warned ViuTV that they might extend the boycott to artists like Mirror and Error in the TV station.
In the end, #ViuTV announced that the Chinese series will be aired during midnight over the weekend. The primetime slot will be replaced by the South Korean drama "Kkondae Intern". ViuTV also said they will release more locally produced programmes in due course.

“Hong Kong people can no longer go on rallies, can no longer vote;
But at least, we can still buy pineapples.
Since the Chinese import ban on Taiwanese pineapples two weeks ago, many Yuen Long residents asked a local fruit store whether they can purchase Taiwanese pineapples. The crazy owner immediately took up the suggestion without hesitation, and had promised to order them. That order filled 10 whole pallets. The owner worried whether he had overstocked.
When I went to the store in the afternoon, this was the scene I saw: hundreds of pineapple boxes sold out in a couple of hours. Those with cars came to pick up entire boxes; those queuing in line patiently waited. Many of those in line even had to place orders when they were sold out.
We all had an unspoken understanding, that this is the only thing left we can do.
This is our silent protest.
With the money spent on a 20-dollar pineapple, we support those walking on the same path as us, and gave ourselves the courage to live on in this changed city.
The pineapple I ate tasted bittersweet, just like all the joy and sorrows we share with each other.
Thank you, citizens of Yuen Long.
Thank you, the crazy owner of Hokee Fruits (@hokee_meows).

#YellowStores Stand in #Solidarity as #AbouThai Opens its New Shop
The pro-democracy 'yellow' store “AbouThai” inaugurated its new branch in Mong Kok on 18 March, 2021.
The store received many encouragement from other fellow 'yellow' stores in Hong Kong. Flower baskets filled the entrance of the new store that is set up at Hollywood Plaza.
'AbouThai' was founded by pro-democracy activist Mike Lam King-Nam, who was charged with "conspiring to subvert states powers" for participating in the primary elections in 2020. He was heard in court with another 46 pro-democracy politians and activists since early March.
Lam, who was released on bail, was seen operating the shop in person. Though the store was overcrowded, Lam was friendly and never rejected requests from journalists.
The new branch of AbouThai is located at:
Shop G14-17, G/F, Hollywood Plaza, 610 Nathan Road, Mongkok, Kowloon
Opening hours: 10:00-23:00 (MON-SUN)
