"Say No to Security Law": Gigantic Banner Appears on Beacon Hill

A gigantic banner, which is 1m wide and 10m long, reading "Say No to Security Law", was sighted on Beacon Hill in Hong Kong at 6am on May 28.

The Chinese Communist Party government has announced the insertion of the National Security Law to Hong Kong's constitution without the participation of Hong Kong's legislative body on the last day of their "two sessions" in Beijing.

Many Hongkongers have opposed the draconian measures which will erode human rights and the remaining freedom in Hong Kong. International community has also voiced concern over China's breach of the "One Country Two Systems".

The U.S. Secretary of State announced on May 27 that the U.S. does not recognize that Hong Kong is "autonomous from China".

Further Suppression of Freedom of speech: University Authorities Remove Pro-Freedom Banners

On Sept 5, 2020, 3 staff members of Production Center and 2 teaching assistants of School of Creative Media removed banners hanged outside of Creative Media Center (#CMC) at Run Run Shaw, City University of Hong Kong (#CityU).

According to Production Center staff, the removal was conducted under demand of Dean Richard Allan Williams. Persons revealed that Facilities Management office (FMO) was suspected to put pressure to the School of Creative Media to remove the banners.

In 2019, pro-democracy protesters initiated multi-district rallies and protests on October 1, to show their discontent toward the encroachment of rights and freedoms in the city. Therefore, the police's objection also signifies the authorities' prevention of civilians taking their opinion to the street for international attention.

The gigantic banner demonstrates Hongkongers' frustration and defiance while facing political oppression.
