A group that promotes the Cantonese language has shut down after Hong Kong authorities said an essay submitted to a literary competition three years ago violated the national security law.
Police have not immediately responded to AP’s requests for comment.
In the article, the government changes the names of places to erase colonial elements and suppresses religious freedoms. It ends quoting a famous phrase by late Czech writer Milan Kundera: “The struggle of man against power is the struggle of memory against forgetting.” “It is a pity that we could not continue since we have contributed a lot to Cantonese affairs,” he said.
