Documentary about Hong Kong Pro-democracy Singer Denise Ho Banned by Top Streaming Platform
On July 1, 2020, the documentary about Hong Kong pro-democracy singer Denise Ho was released but meanwhile banned by a top streaming platform. Ho expressed her disappointment but did not reveal the name of the platform. The streaming platform has business in China and this is suspected to be the reason why the documentary was censored.
Director Sue Williams found it ironic that a documentary, exploring how artists censored by China survive in the showbiz, was itself censored by China. The director also said she did not think that the film could be shown in Hong Kong theatres.

Victim of 7.21 Yuen Long Mob Attacks Persists in Seeking Justice Despite the Threat of Arrest
Mr So, a chef in Hong Kong, has wounds all over his back resulting from the attack by white-clad mobs at “Kai Tei” in Yuen Long on 21 July 2019. He opened a thread in LIHKG, an internet forum, on the morning of August 26, 2020, with a heading of “just in case I am arrested. Let me create a post here first”. This came after the police had arrested pro-democracy lawmaker Lam Cheuk-ting, who had been investigating the mob attacks on that day.
In the post, Mr So wrote that he felt shocked, confused and angry about the arrest of Lam, but expected more people to be arrested. He believed that he also had to be ready that he might be arrested one day. Mr. So emphasised he would continue striving for justice and truth through legal procedures, “It’s up to them if they want to arrest me. It’s easy to find a stick to beat a dog.”
Mr. So was off from work on 21 July, 2019 when he was beaten by 20 people after leaving a shopping mall. “I was not capable and had no chance to hit back,” he said.
He was not worried and did not regret to speak openly, “I won’t commit suicide and do not have any mental illness.” He won’t abandon his right striving for the rights to justice and truth of “a group of victims and all Hongkongers”.
While responding to an inquiry of the Stand News, Mr So expressed that he felt ridiculous towards the arrest of the pro-democracy lawmaker Lam Cheuk-ting by the police. “A plaintiff becomes the defendant and Department of Justice (DoJ) withdraws prosecution, so I think I might be the next target. That’s why to sign a note for investigation by opening a forum in LIHKG.”
