Dear Mr. Jimmy Lai,

I’m left speechless and indignant regarding your detention. I am very grateful for your persistence and not deserting Hong Kong, our home that has been eviscerated by the CCP. We have experienced a lot since last year. I am very grateful to be able to witness this dark age, and I believe and hope that dawn will come one day!

You must fight on! Hold it together! We will not give up either!

We are all proud to be Hongkongers!

I wish you good health, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

To all Apple Daily employees:

Thank you for continuing to stand firm and report the truth, such fearlessness! Add oil! We will also continue to support Apple Daily.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

A person who will love Hong Kong forever
