Pro-democracy Legislator Chants Protest Slogans to Support Detained Activist; Police Deployed
1625 | Kwun Tong
Pro-democracy legislator Ray Chan of People Power continued the "anti-pandemic booth" originally run by fellow activist Tam Tak-chi, who has been arrested by the police for sedition on Sept 6, 2020.
Tam was still held in custody as the court rejected bail. The prosecution alleged that the pro-democracy protest slogans, including the familiar "Five Demands, Not One Less", chanted by Tam were "seditious".
If the court rejects bail again coming Thursday (Sept 17, 2020), Tam will face detention at least until November.
Before joining People Power, Chan and Tam used to work together as a TV and radio host duo, nicknamed 'Slow Beat' and 'Fast Beat' respectively.
At the booth run by Chan on Sumday, Sept 13, police were deployed.

Pro-Democracy Hong Kong Singer #DeniseHo Live-Streams Concert, Vows to Carry On Singing
Pro-democracy Cantopop singer #DeniseHo was scheduled to play in her concert "Becoming the Song" on 8-12 September. However, just 8 days before her concert, the Hong Kong Arts Center abruptly cancelled Ho's venue booking.
Braving many difficulties, Ho went ahead to perform online on September 12, at the original scheduled time.
Ho said that it was like performing in sauna parlour, as the venue she eventually found was without air conditioning; she and her band were soaked in sweat. However, she felt that it was much more memorable experience for everyone than having a concert on a "proper" stage.
Denise Ho was thankful for her supporters. She said, "the best way to thank my supporters is to carry on singing."
