Former Pro-Democracy Lawmaker Helps Jailed Activists to Send Flowers on Valentine's Day

In ancient Roman Empire, Father Valetine had helped couples to get married despite the opposition of the authorities. At that time, the Roman Emperor banned marriage, in order to send more people to war.

In 2021-Hong Kong, Bottle Shiu, social worker and former lawmaker, said Valentine's Day is always a commemoration of resistance and he felt even more so in this times.

Shiu said, "It is no longer just a story, but a reflection of our society. Considering hundreds of jailed pro-democracy protesters in Hong Kong, the regime first imprisons them physically and then tries to confine their thoughts. Love becomes their way of resistance."

On Valentine's Day 2021, Shiu helped jailed pro-democracy protesters to send flowers to their love ones.
