Joshua Wong Writes To The Times (London)
31 Answers
Hello boys and girls:
Joshua wong is the previous head of the democracy movement and has previously served time.
.
I thought that for a change I would ask a serious question - what do people think?
In view of fire walls I have laboriously typed up the letter,
which reads better than the majority of posts on here ( worf da effort den)
.
and yes there is an uncapitalised sentence without a main verb and a hanging clause
.
time for readers to show their colours !

er.its here.oops my bad
Dear Sir,
As your leading article ( Jul 2 ) points out, the new national security law covers not only Hong Kong citizens but also freign nationals. Given its loosely defined terms, the law is prone to misuse or political manipulation. Although Beijing promised no "speech crime", protestors who put "Free HK" or "conscience" sticker on their phones were arrested for "inciting subversion" this week. while a man chanting "Long live Liverpool "was accused of inciting Hong Kong independence.
.
Beijing tries to silence dissidents with fear, but fear will not ill our spirit of resistance and deetemination for democracy. Despite the higher cost of expressing open dissent, tens of thousands of Hongkongers took to the streets, vowing to continue our fight and never surrender. Altho our voices may no longer be heard,we hope the world will speak louder and defend democracy with more forceful efforts. Joshua Wong = former secretary general of Demisto
My only thoughts are,apart from the Liverpool reference, I have heard exactly the same said by Hong Kong protesters most nights on the ITV.
Only difference was their better spoken English was ruined by the spluttering from tear gas. Apart from that I read nothing new here worthy of any other comment. Most of us, by now,are aware of the agreements and conditions that have been broken by Bejing since Mr Patten handed back the colony.

er an answer that is slightly above the par of
"foo dere'll be fwee million of dem here dere will!"
and
"yeah dere will - an next week too!"
and
"will day bring Kung Flu hahahaha wid dem den?"
and so I thought it was fair enough to ask people what they thought

um no - the island was ceded in perpetuity around 1854
and then the territories were rented for 100 y
and it was recognised by both sides that the island was not viable in any sense ( 'they just turn the water off') after return of the territories
so there was a little to negotiate

I think that the Chinese government are proving they are untrustworthy. Their word is not their bond and they're blatant about it. Any nation, any people, deserves better, but the masses seem powerless to change things. In some parts of the world only the military can force change.
One had hoped that, as Taiwan hasn't been invaded and brought to heel so far, that maybe China would see the value of Hong Kong as a wealth producer and not kill the goose that laid the golden eggs, regardless of what other Chinese citizens thought.
Ideology trumping common sense ? Or was the threat of revolution from the rest of China really that high that HK needed to be subsumed ?
