Watsons water has rolled out a series of new designs at the beginning of June 2021. The new designs are bases on Hong Kong scenaries including photos of the well-known Lion Rock and the night view of Pearl Harbour that were taken by international award-winning photographer.

The taglines on this design include “Hong Kong is so beautiful”, “This is our root no matter where we are”, “There is something called perseverance”.

Hpwever, on June 18, 2021, #PARKnSHOP, a supermarket chain in Hong Kong, has reportedly removed all products containing the new design from all stores all of a sudden.

It was not clear whether they were removed because of a product recall or due to self-censorship as those slogans were sometimes used during pro-democracy activities.

According to the spokesperson of Watsons, the new designs were one of the themes in the company’s eco-friendly promotion this year to encourage the love of the earth and natural environment. No explanation was provided as to the reason and the exact quantity of the products being removed.
