Thanks for your insight Joseph. It’s heartening to see that Hong Kongers are on the right side of history. Knowing and admitting the truth is the first step to dealing with it.

I’m a HongKonger and I want to say something for the June 4 Crackdown.
The government in China has done a lot to prevent people from knowing anything about the crackdown because the leaders are afraid of that so no one in China knows the incident even the students studying in the universities.
Some of them come to Hong Kong and they don’t believe us when they realise the incident.
They try to speak for the government instead and condemn us.
Even in Hong Kong, there are many people who want us to forget the incident.
But this year in HK, there were still 200000 people joining the vigil in the Victoria Park and they broke the record.

China has clearly done very well in the past 20 years but I’d say progress and freedom are very different things. Imagine how China could be if people were given an education which gave them the freedom to think for themselves outside of the box which the government currently put them in. To me that would be real progress.

If no-one does anything, it’s called evolution. If a successful government means that you can’t vote, that’s progress. In some direction at least. For us in the West, it feels like the wrong direction. Only time will tell if we’re right.

I should’ve comment here instead of posting on that website I told u.I understand they want me to stop because their website have been blocked and warned before.
I’m still sad that I have to use some techniques to get my news access which indicates my freedom of speech and right to know the truth.Also sad that all my Chinese friends don’t care about this or let’s just say they don’t even know what it is.
