HK people are more engaging and proactive than ever before
I believe not many members in the party know that there is a HK subgroup in Chinese Liberal Democrats.

Exract from the Guardian 29.04.23:
I'm currently a third year medical student, I joined the Liberal Democrats in my first year of university. I quickly became involved with the Cambridge University Liberal Association (CULA) and served as the campaigns officer for the 2022-23. In this role, I organised students for local election campaigns as well as student-related issue campaigns.
The celebration of a New Year to welcome spring is practised by many people in East and Southeast Asia. The celebration is usually referred as the Spring Festival in China. Chinese people and the Chinese diaspora generally greet each other with Happy New Year or Prosperous New Year (in Mandarin, Cantonese and the many other Chinese dialects). In some other East and Southeast Asian countries, for example Vietnam, the celebration is called 'Tet' and the Vietnamese would greet each other in their language with Happy New Year. Similarly, the Koreans celebrate 'Seollal' and greet each other in Korean with Happy or Lucky New Year.
The British Museum recently held an event to celebrate the Korean Lunar New Year, which was criticised by Chinese internet users for displaying "ignorance of history". They also accused Korea of stealing the Chinese Lunar New Year concept. The museum removed links to the event from its website and social media channels without explanation.
