"The ruling represents a capstone in the ongoing effort to rewrite the history of Hong Kong, its pro-democracy movement and even of Lai himself — using the once-respected courts as the final word in this narrative revision." @shibanim.bsky.social www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/1...

The chilling effect of draconian laws, political prosecutions, and censorship are why independent archives are so important in preserving the public record. "Hong Kong photojournalist group axes exhibition after university pulls venue, citing 'emergency maintenance'" hongkongfp.com/2025/11/24/h...

At HKAA we know that sometimes police accountability takes time. A long time. But when that opportunity arises we need to be ready. That’s why we preserve evidence of excessive use of force by the HKPF during the 2019 protests.

'Paul Lam, said the exhibition [marking 5th anniversary of the NSL's implementation] shows the "historical truth” of the 2019 protests.' The truth is there's been no independent inquiry and that no police officer has been held accountable for excessive use of force. hongkongfp.com/2025/06/13/o...

In an unprecedented case, Hong Kong police arrested Kwok Yin-Sang, the father of prominent exiled pro-democracy activist Anna Kwok. The Hong Kong government should drop all charges against Kwok Yin-Sang, free him immediately, and stop harassing Anna Kwok.
