Hong Kong protest movement wins a battle, but the war rages on
Pro-democracy candidates achieved a significant victory in Hong Kong's local elections, winning 389 out of 452 district council seats. The high voter turnout of 71% reflected widespread support for the protest movement against Chinese authoritarianism. Despite this win, the pro-Beijing Hong Kong chief executive, Carrie Lam, remains in power, appointed by a committee largely controlled by mainland China. The article highlights the protesters' fears of increased repression similar to that in Xinjiang and discusses the potential responses from the Chinese government, which may either grant some demands or intensify the crackdown.
Reporter Uncovers Airbnb Scam. Airbnb Shrugs, Pockets Money
A nationwide scam exploiting Airbnb's poorly enforced rules has been uncovered, involving fake listings, reviews, and intimidation across eight cities. Despite the evidence, Airbnb has not provided detailed responses about its verification process and continues to profit from incomplete refunds. The article criticizes Airbnb's inadequate measures to prevent such scams and its reluctance to address the issue comprehensively.
Joshua Wong: The teenager who defied China
Joshua Wong, a prominent young activist from Hong Kong, has been a leading figure in the pro-democracy movement, notably during the 2014 Umbrella Revolution. Despite facing political pressure, physical assaults, and international travel restrictions, Wong remains committed to advocating for universal suffrage and greater autonomy for Hong Kong. His activism has inspired a new generation of young people to engage in political action, although the movement faces significant challenges from the Chinese government. Wong's efforts have garnered international attention, but he acknowledges the difficulties in achieving democracy within a communist system.
