A small group of Taiwanese gathered in one of Taipei’s most famous shopping districts on Sunday to sing songs in solidarity with the anti-government protesters who again took to the streets of Hong Kong.

About 10 people, dressed in black and with masks and yellow helmets, formed a chorus line in the Ximending area at 3pm. They held posters proclaiming “Liberate Hong Kong; revolution of our times”.

They sang two songs, Glory to Hong Kong, the new anthem of local demonstrators, and a Cantonese version of Do You Hear the People Sing?, a popular protest song from the musical Les Misérables.

They also chanted slogans, including “Five key demands, not one less”, “Hongkongers, add oil” and “Today’s Hong Kong is tomorrow’s Taiwan”.    [FULL  STORY]
