Next Tuesday the annual June 4th Vigil will take place in Victoria Park. It’s been held every year since 1990, but this year there’s controversy over the first part of the new slogan for the event "Love the country, love the people; Hong Kong spirit". Some argue that this overshadows the rest of the message, which reads: "Vindication of June 4; never give up". The controversy reflects a difference of stance between those who feel Hong Kong should go its own way, people who feel Hong Kong should play a vital role in the democratization of China, and then there are those who say we should support the Communist government no matter what. With us in the studio are Max Chung of "Hong Kong Blue Righteous Revolt", Hong Kong Alliance vice-chairman Richard Tsoi, and NPC delegate Peter Wong. % G2 Y3 t0 O/ k$ V! _( wTVBNOW 含有熱門話題,最新最快電視,軟體,遊戲,電影,動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。TVBNOW 含有熱門話題,最新最快電視,軟體,遊戲,電影,動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。( U# V.

The tradition of petitioning the powerful, or even the Emperor, to redress legal grievances in China goes back to ancient imperial times. Today, the Communist Party may rule China, but the tradition continues, with a constant stream of petitioners heading to Beijing to ask for help in cases where local officials have let them down or tried to browbeat them. But it can be a long road to Beijing, particularly when those same local officials intimidate and even imprison the petitioners. 7 B9 ]* W$ A$ u- t" a6 w' [tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb0 W6 }4 k9 [( A!

iSun Affairs began life as an internet news and analysis service but eventually began publishing a weekly magazine. That magazine, with its analyses of Chinese political affairs, already had avid readers, but it gained new attention in January with an exclusive interview with Lew Mon-hung, a former Leung Chung-ying supporter now facing legal problems. Despite that, the interest has not been enough to keep the magazine going. 1 ?$ @, a# g- @- Y
