Hong Kong social activists brave threat of arrest to keep speaking out

Three years after Beijing imposed a law criminalizing public dissent and political opposition in Hong Kong, social activists continue to speak out against injustices despite the threats of arrest. Opposition party leader Chan Po-ying and her husband Leung Kwok-hung are among those facing legal challenges for their activism. The crackdown on dissent has resulted in the closure of opposition party bank accounts and the cancellation of protests. However, activists like Chan and former pro-democracy District Council member Chiu Yan Loy are determined to continue their work to address social issues and serve their communities.
