Administrator Marc Posted August 4, 2019 Administrator Share Posted August 4, 2019 I pulled the pin on attendance, as have many of my colleagues that were travelling to HK in light of the escalating violence and protests. Not worth the risk for me, as well as the inconvenience of road and MTR closures. I was sent a very disturbing video by a friend (that works in the industry) in HK last night that shows what is making it to the news and just what isn't! The trip for me was non-essential despite being normally very enjoyable so not a hard decision to make. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Marc Posted August 4, 2019 Administrator Share Posted August 4, 2019 No doubt it will go ahead. Local reports say the number of travellers entering HK has declined sharply though. https://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/politics/article/3021389/hong-kong-police-play-catch-anti-government-protesters Very sad, and it's become much more than just the extradition bill now. I think this is seen as an opportunity to finally speak up about what current and future generations fear was inevitable, come 2047. I'll miss the Espresso Martinis this year! Buy Rusty one for me though! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rusty48 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 I’ll drink to that! But you will be missed... I read recently that that the conviction rate on the mainland is over 90%... And the citizen monitoring system will be fully implemented well before 2047. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
