If HKU upholds freedom of speech then it is notable that the video of my High Table Dinner Speech "Freedom and the Future of China" at HKU Chi Sun College on 30-Oct-2018 has been taken down, along with all other such speeches. Anyway, the text is here: webb-site.com/articles/chisu…

Have signed off from my last day in the extraordinary journey with AFP (and the press) If someone requests interview in my name as an AFP (or any outlet) reporter, that’s not me. But like HK, there is still one last story up in the sleeve. Meanwhile: youtube.com/watch?v=zt-_x_…

Lee Yue-shun is one of the first two men who walked free out of an #NSL trial, breaking the prosecution’s 100% conviction rate. 45 others are sentenced to years in jail today. Freedom can taste complicated and what can one do with it? Story: rfi.fr/en/internation…

For the second day in a row, people have lined up outside Hong Kong's West Kowloon Law Courts building—this time to hear pro-democracy media tycoon Jimmy Lai testify in his national security trial. Compared to yesterday, the queue is shorter and the weather is worse.

A few things to note from Hong Kong's mass sentencing today of 45 democracy advocates. - Benny Tai's 10-year term is the longest ever meted out using China's NSL - Owen Chow got the second-heaviest penalty at 93 months. Didn't get a discount because he pleaded not guilty
