According to the new guidelines, the Chinese national anthem must be sung during celebrations in honor of New Year's Day, the anniversary of the city's handover to China on July 1, and the National Day on October 1. Schools are also "strongly advised" to do so on "important days and special occasions" like open days and graduation ceremonies.

that’s ridiculous. You know why? Because none of the HongKongers love China and we don’t treat China as our Country. China colonised HK!
不要乱用图，如果香港有少年先锋队，就不会有现在这种状况
This is unforgivably sick, respect is earned, what CCP doings are merely disgraceful. They are either stupid or anti humanity.
CCP is insane. It been setting up pro- Beijing power ever since the 97. It never think of complying any promises. : “High autonomous”? CCP: yup but with China characteristics HongKong fell into the hands of these quality of puppet high level officials. Such a tragedy.
Our next generation... Poor kids... boycottChina before it is too late.
CCP starts brainwashing in HK education. It is very very worrying. StandWithHongKong

It's a crime to mock police as Hong Kong is a police state. RTHK's Headliner is the first to be stopped & more will be coming as CCP tyranny is using white terror trying to silence dissent. They also want to brainwash students.
Exactly what a totalitarian country does. Brainwashing its people and removing opposition.

Brainwashing is coming
When I was a kid, I was taught how to sing the Chinese national anthem. I am ok with that and I did not love my so called motherland more because of that. But seeing how our education authority tries to enact a patriotic pracrice in schools is simply disgusting.
And school principals should report whoever refused to sing to the Police according to the Education Department. This is Cultural Revolution 2.0.
It is not illegal for singing Chinese National Anthem It is illegal for singing other political songs like Glory to Hong Kong freedom of politic? Absent You could only be sided with China StandWithHongKong

So finally the authoritarian regime is decided to modify our next generations to become ignorant patriots. And this will be the start of the fall of a nation because it's filled with people with no critical thinking & correct values set StandWithHongKong FreeHongKong
This kind of decoration & heartless anthem wouldn't lead students to love their country, vice versa it would enlarge their disrespectful to the ruler. Don't think HK students are same as Mainland students who were brainwashed by CCP since born.
😡
HK gov is authoritarian to brainwash the student in HK.
Brainwashing the kids to be extreme nationalists
So... When HK POPO kick away the Chinese flag, what should the students do?
Another way to try to brainwash the young generation. But it just won’t be successful.
As the Communist China understands that the authoritarianism won’t be able to earn respect from Hong Kong ppl, it desperately tries to brainwash our younger generations... & can CCP tell us the tragedy of Tian Han, the poor who wrote the lyrics of the anthem? StandWithHongKong
ok, Let's ready to wail while singing this rubbish song💁🏼♀️ CCP_is_terrorist StandwithHK
This is outrageous Isn’t it the cultural revolution now? OneCountryOneSystem
The school will be a place to brain wash students, but not a place for students to speak freely.
The school in Hong Kong has become a manufacturing workshop to transform Hong Kong students into slaves of the CCP😣
It is sarcastic that the lyricist of the Chinese national anthem was died in jail when he was criticized as a counter-revolutionary. This is Communist China. BoycottChineseProducts StandWithHongKong
So naively thinking that the students will become patriotic after signing serval times of Chinese anthem (not HongKong ‘s ). Being patriotic is not about indoctrination but treating the citizens as human kinds, providing fundamental human rights and freedom for them.
Yes! Yes! Long overdue
Because HK is a Chinese city. Period.
Communist Chinese cannot think beyond the whip to Impose Patriotism ! Will prove Counter productive.
The US have been pledging allegiance and flying the flag for decades. The MSM didn't get excited about that.
Aren't the children singing the Star-Spangled Banner and hang the Star-Spangled Banner?
Hong Kong belongs to China. So they sing the Chinese national anthem. Hawaii is 3000 miles off the Coast of the USA. What anthem do they sing? How far is the Falkland Islands from England? What anthem do they sing? Are you people really this stupid?
Kneel during it if you want to fuck with them.
It’s not even 2050 yet 👩🦯👩🦯👩🦯👩🦯
Trump and Pompeo betrayed Hong Kong- This is on them.

Anything wrong? Display our own country's flag and sing our own national anthem? Are you out of your mind?
