Cheap flights to Hong Kong are definitely one factor for ASEAN countries like the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia. There are growing Indian expat communities that might attract their friends and families. Worth noting that during summer holidays, 1/3 of non-mainland traveler are transiting..

I often feel powerlessness.
But in transnational we have the power to narrate our struggle and own our stories - a building block for us to envision an alternative to the status quo and movement building.
Thanks @insightmyanmar.bsky.social team for the conversation.

We didn't choose to live in darkness, but we could choose how to deal with it. There is plenty of injustice and desperation in #HongKong enough to shallow every aspect of our lives. We could choose to look for the light, embrace the inspiration and kindness our friends gave us.

Protest: Trade Unionists Say 'Free the Hong Kong 45!'
3pm Saturday 30 November 2024

On 19 November, 45 defendants in the trial of the Hong Kong 47 democratic activists were sentenced to years in prison. Among them: 6 years 9 months for socialist former opposition lawmaker Leung Kwok-hung, and nurse and former trade union leader Winnie Yu; and 4 years 5 months for aviation worker and trade union leader Carol Ng. They were convicted under Beijing’s tyrannical “National Security Law” simply for organising to demand democracy.
Democracy and freedom to organise are as vital as oxygen for our movement. On 30 November, join our trade unionists’ demonstration to support our sentenced comrades and all those fighting for democratic and workers’ movements in Hong Kong:
Free Carol Ng, Winnie Yu, Leung Kwok-hung and all the HK47 - quash their convictions!
Free Lee Cheuk-yan, Chow Hang-tung and all Hongkongers repressed for pro-worker and pro-democracy activity!
Free political prisoners in mainland China including feminist Sophia Huang Xueqin, workers’ rights activist Wang Jianbing, civil rights activist Xu Zhiyong, and Uyghur intellectuals Rahile Dawut, Ilham Tohti and Perhat Tursun!
Freedom to organise independent trade unions and political opposition in Hong Kong & China!

#HongKong Prof. Benny Tai is sentenced to 10 years in jail for organizing a primary election for the pro-democracy camp. 44 opposition figures are sentenced from around 4 yrs to 8 yrs.
They simply did something very normal in democratic society. They should be free.
