District Councilor: Police Obstruct Memorial in Tin Shui Wai, Citing Social Distancing Rule as Excuse
On the one year anniversary of Marco Leung Ling-kit's death, crowds gathered also in Tuen Mun and Tin Shui Wai, where District Councilors initiated memorials for his sacrifice to defend democracy for Hong Kong. Riot police were sighted at both locations.
In Tin Shui Wai, the gathering was initiated at Ginza Plaza. Dozens of police officers patrolled nearby locations from time to time and were seen negotiating with District Councilor Lam Chun to try and stop citizens from gathering.
Lam told reporters that police officers on the scene were purposefully obstructing the gathering, citing “social gathering restrictions” as excuses.
“Article 599G is nothing but an excuse to oppress the pro-democracy movement. Even when Ocean Park is reopening, the police is using this rule to try and stop us from organizing a simple remembrance gathering.” Lam said.

Hongkongers Urged Not to 'Get Used to the Way Things Are'
2005 | Pacific Place, #Admiralty
Do you still remember? If you do, don't get used to the way things are. Never get used to the way things are.
In the picture, civilians could be seen gesturing "Five Demand, Not One Less", a goal all Hongkongers have been fighting for in the past year. Banners were draped over the ledges, reminding Hongkongers not to get accustomed to the absurd reality.

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.
