The MTR suddenly cooperated with the police. We believe that it is because on the same day (23rd August), official news media of China Global Times said “MTR should not succumb to radical activists”（環球時報社評：港鐵不要向激進勢力磕頭 （MTR should not succumb to radical activists） Chinese​ ）, because before 823, MTR had arranged special trains to carry protestors away (Related event by HKRev.info: .2019.08.21 Anti-Terrorisation Sit-In (Yuen Long)​), after the sit-in, MTR arranged an empty train to carry protestors trapped by riot police away.

It is too late for the Hong Kong government to now withdraw the bill. In the past three months, we Hongkongers have repeatedly sent a clear message to the government to meet our FIVE DEMANDS, but to no avail.

We experienced drastic restrictions imposed upon us with regards to the freedom of protests and demonstrations. And at the same time, people have witnessed not one, not two, but dozens of incidents involving unnecessary arrests, along with the excessive and brutal use of force carried out by the HK Police on protesters and the general public.

The withdrawal has no significance towards the present situation. We demand our five appeals be answered by the government, and for the HK Police Force to take FULL responsibility for what they have done over the last three months. The Liberation of Hong Kong Movement, or the so-called “Water Revolution” will continue until our demands are met.
