#VentusLau believes he has done his best and the next generation will do better
Ventus Lau has been arrested four times since 2019. Seven years ago, he thought he could change Hong Kong if he took part in politics. However, he felt his political life was over after he was disqualified from Legislation Council elections.
In 2019, the anti-ELAB (Extradition Law Amendment Bill) movement led to his political life's resurgence.
In this movement, as an organizer of rallies and marches, he submitted applications for Letters of No Objection. In the end, he was arrested thrice and was accused of four different crimes. The maximum term of imprisonment is ten years in jail for the crime of rioting.
After participating in the pro-democracy primary election, Ventus Lau was quiet for a while and planned to enjoy his last period of freedom until he would be sent to prison. However, he was unexpectedly arrested again because of participating in the primary election and felt like fodder this time. "53 people, including me, have done all we could. What else I can do…," he said.
He didn't complain and feel regret, but he felt sorry that he didn't do his best. "if we use Baggio's rhetoric, we are building a path [for the future]. If the authority wants to arrest me and I need to sacrifice, it's fine. But I hope someone behind can pick it up this tough job, so that my sacrifice will have meaning," he said.
"I have strong feeling that the younger generation will do much better than me," he said.
