My mom was going to travel to Hong Kong in August to vote for the 2020 legislative council crucial election on September 6, 2020. She is an American citizen but still a registered voter in Hong Kong. She wanted me to go with her so that I could witness this controversial election between the pro-democracy camp and the pro-China camp. My aunt works in journalism and she could easier arrange some legislative council members for my interviewing them. My plan was to record the entire process and put it in my UTube channel. However, the Hong Kong government, with the direction of the Chinese government in Beijing, has decided to postpone the election by a year, citing that it is necessary because of the spike in COVID-19 cases. My mom was very disappointed. She was very passionate about including her one important vote for the pro-democracy candidates in her district. She was willing to be quarantined for 14 days before she could be free to see our Hong Kong family and then vote. Therefore, both of us will have to try again next year, providing that the Beijing government will let the Hong Kong people apply their voting rights as promised in the basic law. This cancelation of election is criticized by the Five-Eye countries and the European Union. They felt that the Hong Kong people’s voting rights were stripped away by the Beijing and Hong Kong government mainly because the polls were in favor of the pro-democracy candidates who would win majority seats.
