Subj: Boston Supports Global Action Day

 
Dear aohk friends,

See below a report on our action yesterday.  

I have been looking at a lot of updates online from Apple Daily.  

Vicky forwarded us a couple of emails including one that about “Wearing Black” on Sep 29 (see flyer below), and another about the petition that Bing relayed to you.  Please consider signing if you have not done so.

I hope to post other updates in aohk’s Facebook.

Boston Supports
Global Action Day
The Boston group (Association of Overseas Hong Kong Chinese for Democracy and Human Rights) held a protest on Saturday September 27 to support Hongkong people’s actions to assert their right of universal suffrage.   The protest started at 6:45 pm outside a banquet in downtown Boston attended by officials from the Chinese Consulate to celebrate Oct-1st.  Through the glass walls, banquet-goers could clearly see banners mounted on top of two minivans parked right outside the restaurant entrance. The curtains of the ground floor banquet hall were drawn down in a hurry. Some banquet-goers, especially the youngsters, could still peek through the gaps.  Everybody inside could hear the shouting of slogans whenever people went through the doors.  We continued to rally and hold up banners for another hour.  Reporters from a few newspapers were following this event all the time. 

The restaurant also happened to be a dinning destination for tour groups, and on the way to a central transportation terminus. Busloads of Chinese tourists and many travelers looked on to our Chinese and English banners such as “No Fake Universal Suffrage in Hong Kong”, “Support Democracy in China”, "Don't Let Tiananmen Massacre Repeat in Hong Kong", and “Do Not Arrest Students”.  Some showed gestures of support, and many kept their silence. We knew for sure people got the message, including those going to the Consulate’s banquet.

Let’s go to the “banquet.”

More photos of the rally can be seen in aohkcdhr Facebook:

For the first time since 2007, Congress has reinstated an annual reporting requirement in the 1992 Hong Kong Policy Act, which mandates that the State Department assess the city’s progress.
