John Wai, 26, an engineer, who lives with his parents and a sister, poses for a picture in his 7 sq meter bedroom.

Law student Ruby Leung, 22, who lives with her mother and domestic helper, poses for a picture in her 7 sq meter bedroom.

tompeter All the black shirt humanoids are repeating the same message if the report is not up to their standard. And yet Twitter is not banning them, but the humanoids that get out from GFW and repeat their narrow nationalists view... “freedom of speech” is so fun
tompeter HongKongProtest is all about fighting for freedom and democracy. Hongkongers are trying their best to escape from China’s totalitarian control. We want our autonomy as PROMISED. StandWithHongKong 5DemandsNot1Less
tompeter Pricy housing is one of factors, but definitely not the cause. People are afraid of sending back to China for trial with a false charge. People fear they lose freedom of speech and could be imprisoned because they speak against the government.
tompeter I don't think so. HKprotesters are fighting for freedom and justice. Rule of law, separation of power, high degree of autonomy & 1 country 2 systems, which are milestones of HK, are collapsing under Beijing's interference. StandwithHK antitotalitarianism antichinazi
tompeter HKprotests is a FightForFreedom .CCP refuse to obey the signed declaration to fulfill the promised autonomy in HK. &CCP taking away FreedomOfSpeech &violently oppress dissenters by HKPF,using physical/sexual torture. Housing is not the cause of protests antichinazi
tompeter It’s China’s attempted takeover that they are protesting
tompeter
tompeter Yeah, nothing to do with their freedoms being usurped by Beijing.....
