I think, as you know, the district council election has been changed, the rules and the election votes by the means of Chinese government. We can't vote for the council members anymore and of course at least a list of members. It just means that we can't have such kind of freedom that we have before and then such kind of changing just led us to have no say inside Hong Kong." (ANI)
