Staff of Kingyo, a beverage chain-store, put a whole box of drinks made by the store for press, voluntary first aiders and freedom fighters. A note was written “Never forget 721; right or wrong is about conscience”.

The fines may be ruthless, but love still exists

A man tried to shove some cash into the hands of three youngsters he has never met before. They did not accept this man’s generosity despite having just been issued fines by the police. They shook their heads and waved their hands saying, “No, no, no… we work part-time. We have some money, there’s no need.”

87-year-old Grandma saddened by growing police brutality but persistent to stand-by young protesters and fight on

While citizens passionately chanted, “Liberate Kong Kong, Revolution of our times” and “Hong Kong Independence, the only way out” , 87-year-old Grandma Yung Shui-fong sat quietly at a corner and didn’t join the rest of the crowd.

On her backpack, however, there was a vast collection of ribbons in yellow, white and black symbolizing umbrella movement in 2014, support-the-medic movement, and the last one representing one’s conscience.

Living in the internet age where most of protest information are disseminated online, Grandma Yung, without a smart phone, only can rely on radio and TV news reports to catch up with the latest development of various activities.

Commenting on situation in Hong Kong, Yung expressed, “police nowadays are a lot more malicious than in 2014.”

Although she only could receive information on protest activities at the very last minutes, she continued to partake in demonstrations to show her support to protect the young protesters. She said with a smile, “I am older than Grandpa Chan of the Protect the Child Group, even though I look younger.”

When chatting with Grandma Yung, she appeared to be shy and uneasy. Her compassion and kindness are a distinct contrast to the harsh reality that HongKongers are going through. There is no despair and hatred in her eyes, but sadness and defiance to fight on.

A Letter from Prison: Imprisoned Pro-democracy Protester Wishes Hongkongers a Happy Mid-Autumn Festival

Here is the translation of the letter:

//To Hongkongers:

Never forget:

Please do not be so over-occupied by the pandemic that you forget over 9,000 arrestees who paid the price for Hong Kong's freedom and democracy, nor forget those jailed for the 2016 Lunar New Year protest. They are our youths and elders, who really love Hong Kong so damn much.

Never forget:

7.21, 6.12, 8.31 ... These dates are etched into my heart, never to be forgotten. Have Hongkongers forgotten them, I wonder?

No one is an island. Every youth and every elder who sacrificed their future for Hong Kong is one of us, an inseparable part of us. Hongkongers cannot forget them, or let their memory fade away ...

**

Wish everyone a happy Mid-Autumn Festival!

Keep the faith and stay safe, everyone!

[Editor's note: the two drawings on the right references the Lamma Island Ferry Disaster on Oct 1, 2012, in which a ferry carrying passengers to see the PRC National Day fireworks collided with with another and quickly sank. 39 lives were lost that night, and many Hongkongers have since treated Oct 1 as a day of mourning.

Though investigations pointed out negligence in the construction of the doomed ferry, to this date the police has not yet given any conclusions, leaving families of the deceased without answers for over 8 years.]
