The "Pillar of National Sorrow", which has been erected on the campus of the University of Hong Kong for more than 20 years, was quickly demolished yesterday evening because the school committee voted yesterday (22nd) to move away from the campus of the University of Hong Kong.

The School Council of the University of Hong Kong issued a statement this morning, stating that the "pillar of national sorrow" has been aging.

After referring to independent legal opinions and conducting a risk assessment, the school committee weighed the overall interests of the university and made a decision to move.

The statement stated that the University of Hong Kong has never approved any individual or group to place the statue on campus and has the right to take appropriate actions at any time.

The University of Hong Kong is extremely concerned about the potential safety issues caused by the poor condition of the statue.

According to the legal opinion recently consulted by the University of Hong Kong, it is believed that continuing to allow the statue to be displayed on campus will bring the university a legal risk of violating the Hong Kong Criminal Law.

The University Committee instructed the University to follow up properly after removing the statue and continue to seek legal advice on appropriate arrangements.
