Lee was delighted to see an endless queue and a huge turnout. She also called on Hongkongers to continue supporting the Yellow economic circle after Golden Week. "Supporting the Yellow economic circle equals supporting Hong Kong’s future. Whether or not we, Hongkongers, can rely on ourselves to eke out a real locally-based economic system all depends on you." Lee said she had heard a lot about Agape Garden and was very interested in their "fellow cookies and fellow egg rolls". Upon receiving the invitation to be a "shopkeeper for a day", she immediately accepted it. "I believe we must support Hongkongers and local products."
Having witnessed Hongkongers' mask shortage and their reliance on consistently scarce imports of epidemic prevention supplies, Lee believed that the experience served as a reminder to Hongkongers to produce locally and not solely rely on imports. Tourism, which is one of Hong Kong's major economic pillars, could also use more products with local characteristics to attract more tourists from around the world.
Lee: Public figures should not avoid talking about what's right
Lee has been a TVB actress for over a decade. She left this year after her contract ended. She revealed that she left in hopes of space with greater freedom to "say what I want and do what I should do". Lee believed that public figures should not avoid talking about what was right. "As a Hong Kong artist living in Hong Kong, why can't I speak out when there's a problem?" This was why she hoped to film more works that are truer to society in the future.
When he first encountered the electronic cash register, Leong - who was responsible for transactions - said he was worried about making mistakes because he was not familiar with it. The long queue also put a certain amount of pressure on him. However, he felt that being a shopkeeper was more fulfilling than just patronising Yellow shops.
Leong believed that Golden Week had multiple meanings for Hongkongers. One was to allow Hongkongers with the same values to gather and acknowledge and support one another. Secondly, it was a protest against the tyrannical regime. He was confident that Hongkongers would, in their own ways, continue supporting the Yellow economic circle after Golden Week. "The regime's immorality, injustice and perversion worsening by the day. I believe Hongkongers will protest and resist in their own way."

Alan Leong: The judiciary is deeply concerned
(18 Jul) The former Chairman of the Hong Kong Bar Association, Alan Leong, said that judges seldom speak publicly on social issues. The fact that the Chief Justice of the Court of Final Appeal and non-permanent judges have made exceptions one after another to speak regarding the National Security Law shows that the Judiciary is deeply concerned about the National Security Law, or the undermining of judicial independence. He pointed out that the common law originated in the UK, and that the UK's President of the Supreme Court is a leading figure in the common law system. He described it as a significant issue that Lord Reed gave this warning in his capacity and as a serving non-permanent judge in Hong Kong.
