Thabks for sharing. I have always wanted to visit this amazing city. I gree up banking at HSBC so it was always on my mind.
I've never been to Hong Kong myself , but at night it really looks amazing in the Top Photo 👏 $trdo
I have a good friend living there, also a fellow singer-songwriter musician. I know there have been protests, and in my country they're kind of trying to emulate it but it's a different situation entirely. Hope despite everything you could enjoy that holiday.
It is curious that similar situations are happening here in Latin America.
For example: In Chile there are problems with social repression, people destroyed a subway (One of the best meters in Latin America). Lately things have been complicated in many countries, and with this post I see that not only in Latin America is this happening.
I understand you don't want to give your opinion on it. It's been a few days since you posted this post, but I hope you're doing well now and that you really enjoyed your trip to Hong Kong.
It must be an intense place to be right now. A friend has lived there and is doing translation work for news agencies about it. I really hope the government do not unleash the army as they have before.
The only time I was there was a couple of hours in the airport on my way from Singapore to LA.
Thanks for your recent support. Unfortunately the bad guy has more SP than we can handle and I just have to give up on post rewards until he gets bored. My comments still earn something though.
Freedom has many nuances, they don't want any more lies and they demand freedom. At first glance one cannot give an opinion of which freedom they demand, it could be press freedom, economic freedom, sexual freedom, political freedom. In short, there are many, but the real one is the internal one, the one that makes us feel free and at peace even if we are prisoners and alone.
This is exactly the type of work 3speak is looking for from its citizen journalists
Congratulations @gtg! Your post was mentioned in the Steem Hit Parade in the following category:

Thanks for sharing these snapshots from a city that is currently all over the news. It's difficult if not impossible to get a grasp on what is really going on there from where I am. The news make their effort to explain it but what positions are supported by what number of citizens remains unknown.
On a side note, I'm evaluating the current suggestion for the reward of your post towards a somewhat lower amount.
Geniales fotografías, entiendo tu punto de no emitir opinión alguna al respecto. El mundo en general esta pasando por situaciones transcendentales y en ocasiones solo los que allí viven y padecen sus realidades son los que nos pueden emitir un juicio verdaderamente cierto.
Great photos. I have family there and I’m worried about them. Would love to visit again soon 😊

Woah, super jealous. Never been to Hong Kong or China, definitely on the list.
Were you there for any specific reason? It would be cool to be able to witness the protests going on there.
