“I cannot bear the situation in Hong Kong now. There is no rule of law and the judges are handing down unfair judgments.”

The “sing-with-you” protest in a major shopping centre in Hong Kong on Tuesday evening could mark a new wave of  anti-government demonstrations, coming close on the heels of the city’s recent success in the fight against  Covid-19.

The chanting of protest songs and slogans such as “Liberate Hong Kong; revolution of our times” by more than 100 masked demonstrators at the International Financial Centre mall in Central was the second protest in just three days. One of the protesters at the mall was a 45-year-old woman working in the IT sector. “I was working from home, but I thought I should come out to show my support for the protests,” she said. “I cannot bear the situation in Hong Kong now. There is no rule of law and the judges are handing down unfair judgments.”
