It has been 37 days since 12 Hongkongers were arrested by the China Coast Guard in the name of illegal entry - contacts with family members lawyers are still rejected while no information has been received from the detainees.
They are a group of young people who love Hong Kong; while their detainees. Your attention on the issue, though might not be able to necessarily bring them back to Hong Kong immediately, can at least protect them, bringing a glimpse of hope to their family members.
喬映瑜 (Qiao)
Despite a lack of related information, she is a girl who loves Hong Kong. Under severe depression, hardly can we imagine how she could endure 33 days without the assistance of medicine, alone.
張俊富 22歲 (Cheung, 22)
Being a student form the Open University of Hong Kong, he should have been similar to other people, leading a simple life. Instead of opting for pleasant university life, he chose to stand up for Hong Kong. We hope that he can safely return home, together with 11 of the others.
嚴文謙 21歲 (Yim, 21)
He is also a student. It was alleged that he was in Yantian, ShangShen China. At that time, his hair had been totally shaved and his eyes dully glazed over – could anyone imagine what had he experienced?
黃臨福 16歲 (Hoang, 16)
Wong is a 16-year-old secondary school student, the youngest among the 12 detainees. Supposedly, as a teen under 18 (the legal age in Hong Kong), he cannot entrust a lawyer on his on device. John Lee Ka-Chiu, the Security for Security, however, claimed that Wong voluntarily did so. Wong’s family lawyers afterwards requested for a meeting with Chinese officials but were forced to withdraw.
鄧棨然 30歲 (Tang, 30)
Suffering from asthma and skin disease, 30-year old Tang might not have medicine since related information was not found. Worrying, his mother’s every single word in the press conference was heartbreaking to many.
李宇軒 29歲 (Andy Li, 29)
He is a 29-year old youngster who has a strong interest in Manga. As a computer engineer, he endeavoured on the career path with self-study. But if he was to choose between personal interest and the future of Hong Kong, he undoubtedly chose the latter. Nevertheless, due to the possible retrospective period of the National Security Law, his trust in the legal systems vanished, having no choice but to escape.
張銘裕 20歲 (Cheung, 20)
As a youngster in his twenty, Cheung originally was similar to other young people, having hobbies ranging from playing football, rock climbing to diving. Since he is relatively more mature, he takes care of himself well. Such an active youngster was however arrested during the Anti-extradition Law movement, being entitled with a criminal charge.
Cheung had once told his father that he needs to “fight for democracy and freedom”, which was questioned by his father as to for what he was fighting for. “For the next generation”, Cheung answered resoundingly. Such a firmed belief continued to glow upon the moment he was on board. He understood that to fight for the next generation, he should first stay alive.
李子賢 29歲 (Lee, 29)
Lee is a 29-year old cat lover - going to sleep with the two cats he adopted was the most valuable moment in his life. Attempting to leave Hong Kong, he took the initiative to take a photo with his mother. Before going on board, he took out the photo, thinking about his mother who was always proud of his helpfulness and filial piety. Tracing back to his mother’s birthdays on which he made cheesecake and sang a song, he hoped that his mother would know he loves Hong Kong, too.
郭子麟 18歲 (Kok, 18)
Apart from his family, Kwok, an HKU Engineering Student who loves drama, was also thinking about a girl whom he knew from the Drama Club. Perhaps she is, indeed, the main cast of his life.
Before leaving his homeland, he plucked up all his courage to confess to the girl, echoing to one of HKU students’ sayings - “striving all your effort and leaving no regrets (BJMF)”. Life is like a play. Contemplating on the rippling waters, was he wondering whether this his affection would simply be buried, like a pearl sinking into in the vast ocean?
鄭子豪 17歲 (Cheng, 17)
Bringing with him a fishing rod and bucket; claiming that he was going to fishing – it was the way Cheng waved goodbye to his family; it was the white lie Cheng told in order to leave without notice, protecting his family from worrying.
Before leaving, Cheng used his pocket money to purchase a phone for his mother as a birthday gift. The phone is still here while the receiver has been so distant away. Cheng loves Hong Kong no less than his family. He was willing to bear the burden and go away, taking all the fishing equipment and leaving overnight.
廖子文 17歲 (Liu, 17)
Liu will become 18 after less than one week. To celebrate his birthday, he used to dine outside with his family – such usual practice, however, became a memory. Nevertheless, he actually has already participated in the Rites of Passage Ceremony – because what he experienced was much more than any other others.
Liu is a tough guy, hiding most of the emotions.
When he was small, knowing his older brother being bullied, he would directly ride on a bicycle to drive away the bullies. Most probably, his insistence on justice was what drives him to embark on the journey of the Movement.
黃偉然 29歲 (Wong, 29)
“Forgive my selfishness. In face of the parting of life and death, millions of words inside my throat can only be expressed between written lines.” – this was what written by Wong, a 29-year old motor mechanic, who left in his room the letter written with wordings like “I’m so sorry”, “sorry, mom” and “forgive my selfishness”.
Even since being released from Lai Chi Kok Reception Centre, Wong had been more distant to his friends and family. Rarely did he have dining with his family, but often did he lock himself inside the room. He even reduced contacts with two of his favourite cats. Probably, he was paving the way for the departure with his family who may be more accustomed to living a life without Wong.

how to celebrate birthday at home with friends 在 Nasser Amparna Funpage Facebook 的最讚貼文
Hey it's my BIRTHDAY! 🎈🎁
"What do you realize during lockdown?"
This is a forced time.
It wasn't part of our plans but we have to commit to it. The goals we have set previously are nothing to what we are aiming now and it relates to mastering new skills or getting the best shape that relates for personal, professional growth and excellence! (Yeah, excellence... at home 😂)
We are achieving extraordinary targets while establishing new meaning of relationship; the one that's always on the textbook.
At home, you will never experience this moment again. That moment where you wake up complete with your family and worry together for survival. You cook, you join the conversation, you saw the smallest details you never noticed before, what you lack at home, your siblings nuissances, your unread books, your messy digital life, your family's wonderful unheard moments, etc. Lucky that you have your family during this crisis while I'm far away from them but I see it through my friends story. Challenging yet one of the best times right?
I'm also a believer of putting myself over other things is very productive but this lockdown brought me back to my senses that being there for others is also fruitful.
Calling them.
Asking how they are.
How was their day.. at home.
Have they eaten.
And asking them to be safe...
I never appreciated this parting words before but now, its has a lot more meaning than just plainly saying "hey be safe ahh"
It's the most sincere "please be safe" I've ever said.
We are all social butterflies now. Spreading warmth through video calls while reaching out.
We are also awaken to the truth the life is simple and its only us that makes it really complicated.
Reality check. Reality bites.
I could go on but it'll be long.
To sum everything up, this is probaly one of the best eye opener of our lives.
That life is precious and time is really gold.
As I celebrate my birthday in my solitary room, Honestly, I never felt empty and alone and I really wouldn't mind if this lockdown goes on for a while.
For the mean time, its time to make my wish list for post-lockdown and it'l be the bestest plan ever.
Happy birthday to me!
