Good morning.

It’s upsetting to see that beautiful spots in the city have been tarnished over the Easter holiday by litterbugs tossing their rubbish left and right. Please do your best to leave public spaces as clean (or cleaner) than it was when you arrived! Those sharing the spaces with you – animals and humans alike – will thank you.

    1. After several interviews in 4 months, the Home Office has informed me that my asylum application is approved. The fact that I am wanted under the National Security Law shows that I am exposed to severe political persecution and am unlikely to return to Hong Kong without risk.

The rescue shelter Sai Kung Stray Friends (SKSF) is struggling to stay afloat, and will only be able to stay open for another two months with the current funds it has. Over 100 dogs rely on the kindness of those who run the shelter; if you have the means to, please consider donating to SKSF so they can continue caring for HK’s abandoned and stray pups.
