Volunteer tutors help “dreaming” students with DSE: You are not alone
The government’s push for the Anti-Mask Law has sparked intense retaliations. Many of the student protesters at the front lines, however, still have the DSE (Diploma of Secondary Education) to prepare for, which will start in less than six months. Sadly, none of their efforts for Hong Kong will be credited to their grades. In light of this, some netizens took the initiative to start a platform to recruit tutors. So far, 200 volunteer teachers have volunteered to tutor these students for free, in order to help them make up for all the lost hours. More than just being tutors, many of them end up offering emotional support to these students too, becoming the beacon of hope to the students in such difficult times.

[After Resignation] 20 resigned district councillors find new approaches to serve the community amidst sustainability issues
By Translated by Guardians of Hong Kong, October 10, 2021 • 3 January 2022
In July, the government imposed a new mandate of oath-taking for District Council members (DC Members) already in offices. This led to a wave of massive resignations. Some of the resigned DC Members left Hong Kong but some stayed. Many former DC Members want to stay and serve the community, however, how could they live without government subsidies and salaries of a DC Member?
Some former DC Members discovered a new approach. Risks are everywhere but it is most important to try.
