Walned | Alumnus delivering supplies into CUHK: “Anyone with a sense of humanity will do the same.”

We almost gave up because of the deep and unsettling sense of fear, yet a voice within told us to go back without wasting another second. I can’t understand how Hong Kong became such a city... On my way back to CUHK, images of the Tiananmen Square massacre continued to replay in my mind. Was it deja vu, or had I lost my sanity?

【SHARED】Wang Hao Yu | Taiwanese journalist reporting in Hong Kong - "They are not a bunch of numbers. Each and every one of them is a person, very much alive."
