1.After the Apple Daily closure, Stand News became the largest free media in Hong Kong. Today, we have witnessed another forced closure with a number of arrests. The message Beijing sends is clear: report in the way that we allow, or end up in jail.

5. Then we must ask: what's left in Hong Kong's press freedom? What does journalism mean if journalists cannot report what the government does not like? It will only become propaganda. And propaganda is the opposite of press freedom.

This petition against the resuscitation of the Green Bombers is the most important order of the day because it affects the youths & with that, it affects this country’s future.
