Earlier, the Lennon Wall on the campus of the University of Hong Kong was deliberately destroyed by unknown persons. The Hong Kong University Student Union launched the "Rebuilding the Lennon Wall" operation this afternoon (14th) to repost posters and posters.

The president of the Hong Kong University Student Union Ye Zhilin said that he has contacted the security company and issued a complaint letter to the campus security. He has not received a reply for the time being and will continue to follow up the security measures in the future. She also pointed out that she hopes to keep the Lennon Wall.

The chairman said that he has made negotiations to continue to follow up the security treatment

Ye Zhilin said that students would post the Lennon Wall throughout the day today, and did not want to be damaged again. She pointed out that she had contacted the security personnel for negotiations after the incident, asked the security company to borrow CCTV, and sent a letter of complaint from the school campus security, but did not receive a reply. She also pointed out that the security guards were not active enough at the time, and she also received reports that the security guards were insufficient and did not actively follow up to prevent them.

Ye expressed that he hoped to obtain evidence to understand the incident, such as security arrangements at that time. She pointed out that although the school security has restricted the flow of people, it has always been more targeted at people wearing black clothes. In addition, we will always follow up on how to deal with similar incidents after campus security, such as how the security guards deal with outsiders entering the campus to hurt students and property in the future.

President: Or will not tear off the slogan "Guangshi"

When asked if the National Security Law was passed, if the "Guangshi" slogan or remarks on the Lennon wall would affect the Student Union, Ye pointed out that after the law was passed, many complaints had been received. She believes that the Lennon Wall symbolizes freedom of speech. If students will mute themselves and restrict classmates from posting, it is really incomprehensible.

She also pointed out that the place where the Lennon Wall was posted was managed by the Student Union, hoping to keep the Lennon Wall as much as possible. Even if the school asks for removal, the student union will not mute and remove itself, and will defend the freedom of students to express their opinions.
