Protests Continue in Thailand: Citizens Wear Respirator Masks and Wave HK's Black Bauhinia Flag

More than ten thousand people had a rally at Sanam Luang (Royal Field) on September 19, 2020. They demanded the resignation of Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-Ocha, and reform of the country’s Monarchy. Citizens have installed “People’s Plaque” proclaiming that the country belongs to the people.

After handing over a letter of demands, tho crowd dispersed. Student Leaders had given the message they would have another phase of protests.

As captured in pictures, the pro-democracy protestors in Thailand shared similar traits with those in Hong Kong. Some teenagers dressed in black wore helmets and gas masks. People held their hands to form a human chain. Some hoisted a Black Bauhinia flag and stood in solidarity with the Hong Kong protests.

Who is the puppet? — Did he leave out the famous Tank Man on Tiananmen Square in 1989 in his photo collection on purpose?

Former district councilor Dominic Lee Tsz-king, who is known for his pro-Beijing stance, called pro-democracy protesters actors on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/leetszking/posts/5135204823171645).

In a collage of photos with protest scenes in Hong Kong, Thailand and Ukraine showing in common a peaceful protester standing in front of armed police, begging them to retreat and not to injure the innocent civilians, Lee wrote “No such thing as old way so long as it works,” scorning protesters as nothing but “mere actors performing theatrical acts”.

Lee is a member of the pro-Beijing People's Party in Hong Kong, which is chaired by Beijing loyalist and former Secretary for Security Regina Ip.
