Dear readers,

It is a particularly sad day in the 25 years of history of our newspaper. Facing suppression, our founder Jimmy Lai has been remanded in custody until April next year.

We have not let our guard down since the arrest of Mr Lai and members of senior management in August. We continued to cover the news to monitor the government, and we will never give up on embracing freedom and democracy. Apple Daily will stand tall even though Mr Lai will be unable to join us for the time being and we call for your continued support.

“It is of utmost importance that when the wheels of history crush you down, and the whole of your body feels shaken, you refuse to give up to fate and fight on,” said Lai in the foreword of Apple Daily’s 20th anniversary commemoration edition.

As Hongkongers live on, Apple Daily shall do the same. We will not give up, and neither should Hongkongers.
