[Climate change & HK - China is reacting similarly to both]
1/ @GretaThunberg was named #TIMEPOY by the @TIME. She's a Swedish Schoolgirl that inspired #FridaysForFuture against climate change. She's regarded as the figure of the power of youth, and inspired many, including me.

11/ Now it is clear that China is unwilling to keep its promise, and worse still, China has recently declared the Joint-Declaration to be invalid on its own. The Joint-Declaration was a historical document that no longer had any practical significance, China said.

12/ The two examples illustrate that China is never trustworthy and do not take any rules into consideration. It will simply do anything it wants, no matter what are the norms and regulations that it should follow. It takes more than just the youth to address the problem.

13/ Greta & participants of the strike alone can never hold China responsible for breaking its promise. HK’s youth along can never hold China responsible for violating international treaties. The world has to stand in solidarity to be able to achieve results.
