Letters to Prison| Thankful for having young people who know what’s what
After reading
your petition letter in Apple Daily on Labor Day, which was presented to the judge, I was deeply touched. Before being sentenced, you said that’s the rule you had to follow and practice, hence accepting it without resentment, as well as encouraging fellow travelers to take care of themselves. Seeing that you are so young when you have to endure the helplessness in the world, I feel extraordinarily sorrowful! Is the time you were taken in custody deducted from your prison term? Are you going to be discharged in the second half of 2022? I hope you are going to be reunited with your family and friends soon!
Please continue with your study. I am thankful for the society still having young people like you who know what’s what. This is the first time I have written to a lamplighter behind bars.
From a senior you have never met
Most of the 47 pro-democracy figures charged with conspiring to subvert state power by standing in the primary election are remanded in custody before trial.
After paying a visit to her boyfriend, Ventus Lau Wing-hong, in Chi Kok Reception Centre in two days ago, Emilia Wong Yue-kiu said Lau was exceedingly moved by the words “Love you all, support!” on a banner wielded by a citizen few days ago outside West Kowloon Magistrates’ Courts.
Wong said Lau was grateful to the supporters attending the trial. “He said when he was leaving West Kowloon Magistrates’ Courts that evening in a prison van, he saw an army of “comrades”, lights of cell phones, and the words ‘Love you all, support!’ on a banner, so thank you all.” Lau has concern for
granny Wong arrested in Wan Chai on Sunday for “one-person gathering”, and is also worried about the physical conditions of the elderly “specialists in attending trial”. He hopes “everybody would take good care of themselves”.
