A founder of a Nobel Peace Prize-winning organisation has urged Chief Executive Carrie Lam to set up a ‘people’s assembly’ comprising young people, protesters, lawmakers, officials and other stakeholders to help Hong Kong find a way out of the political impasse stemming from the now-suspended extradition bill.
Dr Rebecca Johnson, from the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN), was in Hong Kong recently to attend an academic forum, but also participated in anti-extradition rallies.
Johnson, who has decades of experience as an activist, told RTHK’s Jimmy Choi local protesters must remain united, eschew violence, and maintain the moral high ground, if they are to succeed in agitating for change.
