Riot Police Show Up to Disrupt Mourning for Leung
23:32 | Pacific Place, #Admiralty
This video shows the mannerism of the riot police as they rushed on site to force civilians and reporters to leave.
At one point, a noticeable agitated police officer gave a contradiciting instruction to the people at the scene, yelling at them to "Walk forward", while his colleague holding on to the microphone and the loudspeaker was instructing the people to "Walk backwards".

Never Forget 6/15
黑夜盡處有著黎明，
每一個香港人走過日子，
每一步也盡是刻骨銘心，
不知道燈火的終點在哪，
但我們都會一起走下去，
前行有你，
背後有我。
The dawn always arrives at the end of the darkest night.
For each day HongKongers have gone through,
Each step is unforgettable.
Without knowing where the light ends,
We’ll still walk alongside in solidarity.
When you walk on ahead,
I follow closely behind.

有些不值遺忘的事總會被人遺忘
有些希望能遺忘的事總難以遺忘
香港人並不善忘
他們只不想回望
或受現實所迫
忽視了身邊的美好
Sometimes, things worth remembering are forgotten.
Sometimes, things that we wish to forget stay in our minds forever.
Hongkongers are not forgetful.
They just wish not to remember,
Or might have missed something along the way.
When they are going through the routine of their busy lives.
Editor's Note: Every one of the 36 white flowers in the background were taken individually by our reporter. Each white flower shows our undying remembrance and our sheer determination to fight on and tide through this difficult time.

A poem in memory of Mr Leung Ling-kit
Mr Leung Ling-kit, sacrificed himself on 15/06/2019 trying to stop the Extradition Bill get pass.
"They will never understand
We are impossible to 'restart'
Last year today
He went on his path
And never came back"
We will never forget you, two millions plus one.
Your silhouette sealed in our hearts.
We will keep fighting until glory to Hong Kong.

Hongkongers have evolved through the past year
The boy holding the tailgate sign at the end of the line was a university student, reporters found him when the queue started to shorten at 23:00, pointing all the live camera at him, while he bashfully held up a handwritten card to ask the reporters not to film his appearance. The reporters came up to ask for his thought and the time when he started tailgating, he said that he arrived at 17:00 and started to be “Mr Tailgating” as he found the situation a bit messy, instructing people where to line up for paying their respects from 18:00 to 23:00. When Siu Wan (a journalist) asked for his thought on the movement, he suddenly stood up straight and said, “I think we don’t need to wait for people to start activities online, if we want to participate in any activity, just do it.” (main idea)
I was more interested in the origin of his paper, he chuckled and said, “It’s just lecture notes.” Oh, so he’s a student of Kuo Way. I bet this page of lecture notes from mechanical engineering would not know that it had not only transferred knowledge, but become the guiding light of tens of thousands of Hongkongers tonight.
It’s all thanks to the (government’s) strong suppression on all the (activity) organizations last year. “No cross (with cross being the chill to the bones in the Chinese version of this saying), no crown (with crown being the civic maturity of Hong Kong)”, and last year was a Siberian chill, training Hong Kong to become an absolutely mature civil society which is astonishingly neat. A spontaneous memorial with tens of thousands of people paying their respects has only overflown one trash can, and there wasn’t even a piece of paper bigger than a fingernail on the ground, which is a huge improvement from the Occupy Movement in 2014.
When I talked to other reporters today, we all had the feeling that our comrades were not only back in place tonight, but also evolved since last time. But as the citizens have matured, the regime keep shrinking the room allowed for civic maturity, while RTHK, Foo Tak Building and Hong Kong Alliance are going to be broken down one by one. While the civic energy can no longer be pressed, how will this Summer of Freedom 2.0 go on?
I am worried.
PS: Listening to “Sing Hallelujah To The Lord” again makes me emotional as it feels like a lifetime ago, as I haven’t been listening to it for a year. Before the National Security Law, we probably all need to sing hallelujah to the lord to ask God to keep us safe. Amen.

13 Months On: Yellow Raincoat Man Remembered
20:49 | Pacific Place, #Admiralty
It has been 13 months since the death of Leung Ling-kit (more affectionately known as the Yellow Raincoat man), who is considered to be the first martyr of the anti-extradition movement.
Groups of people from all Walls of life have made their way down to the site of his death to place flowers in memory and tribute to him.
An illuminated light box depicting an illustration of a yellow raincoat was also hung on the tree where the flowers were being placed.
Last year, Leung's death sparked off a peaceful protest that involved 2 million participants making an appeal to the government to withdraw the extradition bill. This demonstration has made it to the books as Hong Kong's biggest demonstration up to date.
It may have already been more than a year since Leung's departure, but he will forever be remembered as an important figure in the movement.

20:37 | Admiralty
17 months ago on June 15, 2019, "Yellow Raincoat Man" Marco Leung Ling-kit took his life, by jumping off from the rooftop of a shopping mall, in protest of the extradition bill, which Carrie Lam refused to withdraw despite million-strong protest marches and violent clashes outside the legislature.
On the 17-month mark tonight, citizens returned to the spot where Leung fell and paid respect to him, as they have been doing every month.
Leung's death last June shocked the city, and was remembered as the first martyr who took their own life to protest against the extradition bill, which, sadly, claimed several more lives before Carrie Lam finally withdrew it months later.
His yellow raincoat bears slogans decrying police brutality against protesters and accusing Carrie Lam for "killing Hong Kong". It has become one of the symbols for the anti-ELAB movement. A replica was hung at the memorial site tonight, where citizens placed white flowers and lit candles in his remembrance.
Posters at the scene also called for attention to the 12 pro-democracy Hongkongers who have been captured and are now detained in China without outside contact for nearly 3 months.
Like Yellow Raincoat Man, Hongkongers would not forget the sacrifices they made, nor the pain they endured.

“I am lost in Hong Kong”: #YellowRaincoatMan
On May 10, 2021, the Coroner’s Court in Hong Kong has opened the inquest into the death of “yellow raincoat man” #MarcoLeung Ling-kit, the first martyred Hong Kong protestor, who on June 15, 2019, fell from a scaffolding at Pacific Place mall in Admiralty after unfurling a banner with the Five Demands of the protests.
Leung’s parents were absent from court.
Inside the court room, the personal belongings of Leung were exhibited. These include a banner that read "Fully withdraw extradition to China, we are not rioters" and his famous yellow poncho displaying the line "Carrie Lam kills Hong Kong, Corrupt Cop is Coldblooded".
Apart from these, there is also a black T-shirt with the words “I am lost in Hong Kong” and a notebook where he wrote “I am frustrated by this Hong Kong.”
A clip of the incident was shown in court, in which Democrat Roy Kwong and other citizens tried to persuade Leung not to commit suicide. “Walk back!” “We still have tomorrow. Let’s march together tomorrow!”
Macro Leung died on June 15, 2019, a day before a march which sees 2 million Hongkongers taking to the street, the largest the city has ever witnessed. He has since become an icon in Hong Kong’s resistance movement.

“What comes today is the stained hands of a tyrant”: #YellowRaincoatMan’s Last Words Found
The Coroner's inquest into the death of #MarcoLeung “Yellow Raincoat Man" took place during which a notebook with his last words was exhibited.
“I am frustrated to this Hong Kong
whose answers to its future for
months I have sought yet not found
What comes today is my will
but also from the stained hands of the tyrant.”
“Fully withdraw Extradition to China
Release all students
We are not rioters
Carrie Lam must go”
Found in his remains is also a filled registration card of a wish for green burial, which means he chooses to bury by scattering his cremains in Gardens of Remembrance or at Sea.
Leung’s family has tried to approach the police in June 2019 and June 2020 for three times. Yet 2 days after they have given their statement, they left Hong Kong on the morning of 29 August 2019 and didn’t have any other travel records ever since.

25 months since the Passing of #YellowRaincoatMan
A sign that appeared on July 15, 2021 in Admiralty, Hong Kong reads: “If we give up now, our friends who had passed away would not forgive us.”
#MarcoLeung, the Yellow Raincoat Man, fell from a shopping mall on June 15, 2019, calling on fellow Hongkongers to resist the erosion of rights and freedom and the suppression by authorities. The next day, 2 million Hongkongers took it to the street to voice support for the 5 demands, which include the withdrawal of extradition to China and the implementation of duo universal suffrage in Hong Kong.
Two years went by, the situation in Hong Kong has only worsened with the authorities' continuous crackdown on civil society, journalists and any pro-democracy civilian including students and teachers.
On July 15, 2021, police filled the site where a memorial of the yellow raincoat man takes place every month among pro-democracy Hongkongers.

Two years seven months since passing of pro-democracy martyr Marco Leung Ling-kit
On June 15, 2019, #MarcoLeung fell to his death from a shopping mall, #PacificPlace, a week after a one million-strong demonstration failed to convince the city's leadership to withdraw the extradition bill.
Leung was wearing a yellow raincoat that wrote "Carrie Lam killed Hong Kong, Cops were cold blooded."
Leung was the first pro-democracy Hongkonger to die in the anti-extradition law amendment bill movement in 2019.
After Leung's death, his yellow raincoat became a symbol of resistance in the fight for freedom.
