hongkong is no more a safe city because of the police brutality

Gov't has lost autonomy & citizens are losing freedom & democracy. Our gov't bans our basic right to protest. White terror is happening in big companies e.g. Cathay Pacific. Sorry about this but citizens are forced to go on street because we are fighting for freedom.

Sorry to hear that. HongKong

I am sorry to hear this news. We also wanted to see you guys however CarrieLam don't wanted to solve the problems in hk 😭😭😭

We hope to resume peace in Hongkong when our government really listen to its citizens and address to our demands for human rights, freedom and high autonomy. Please support us. Thanks. PassHKHumanRightsAndDemocracyAct SOSHK

The HongKonger are fighting for the freedom. FightForFreedom

The main reason of the cancellation is PoliceBrutality HongKongProtester are only Fighting for the universal values, ie FreedomOfSpeech HumanRights Democracy

HKer”s heart is broken, but unfortunately the problems are not created by hkprotester. Protesters are just expose those hidden problems in HK.

It's a sad new. I have been UK last month & watched Matilda. It is such a great show. I believe HKer would like the show to be here in HK. Though HK is now sick and we are fighting for democracy, we wish all of u to come to our beautiful home when we are well. StandWithHongKong

It’s pity. Please be considerate HKprotesters. They are fighting for their freedom democracy. Please support them!!

Actually the protester didn’t hurt any citizens this three months. It is the hkpolicebrutality and HKPoliceTerrorism causing social unrest. HKPolice and the government makes Hong Kong become a policestate. passHKHumanRightsDemocracyAct

Hong Kong fighting for freedom.

Only when the government is willing to set up an independent investigation committee can stop the police abuse the violence and use the tear gas unreasonably.

Hong Kong Police will beat the sh*t out of you for no reason. Which mak Hong Kong a dangerous place. PoliceBrutality PoliceTerrorism HongKongPolice StateTerrorism HongKong

Sorry for the inconvenience caused. But Hongkonger would not give up to fight for freedom. We as the stakeholder of Hong Kong would suffer from economic loss or daily inconvenience too. But there is something more important we need to fight for! Please StandwithHK !

It is more important to amend the political situation because Hong Kong will lose its freedom.

Sorry to hear that. HongKongers also want our city to be back to normal when freedom and autonomy are once again secured

We are really sad about cancellations of events... HongKongers hope to rebuild our beautiful city ASAP so that it will be ready for friends from around the globe to visit us! In the meantime, please sStandWithHongKong in our fight for DemocracyForHK and LiberateHongKong!

Hong Kong need democracy Please help Hong Kong

It is a correct decision as the HongKongPolice and PoliceBrutality love to arrest and beat all innocent citizens and foreigner.

HKPolice can order any public facilities to close, so that they can arrest or beat anyone. Like the 831 HKPoliceTerrorism, the Prince Edward MTR station was closed. It is not surprised that the organiser call a stop, as HK is a PoliceState now. HKGov fully support the police.

We are sorry for the issue. BTW, CarrieLam was the one that to be put blame.She disregarded with the Peace parade of 1 million and two million ppls and don’t response with the demand from public which leads to prolonged protest. She also enabled the police to abuse of violence

Sad to know the cancellation. But.... sorry... hongkong now is not ready for the show. The situation here is pretty tense. Hope a better hk is waiting for the “Matilda” in the future

Sad but i hope the situation will improve once HKHumanRightsandDemocracyAct is passed. Looking forward to see it in Hong Kong in the near future!

We are sorry for the loss. But it is not protesters fault... If CarrieLam met our demands and HongKongPolice stop beating up innocent people, it wouldn't happen😢

Sad news. We love to welcome international events and shows here in our beautiful home. Yet Hong Kong is sick now when we are still fighting for our survival and democracy. Please visit us again when we are well!

HK government help China ruin HK! The government stop MTR service that protesters cannot go home. Then use police force to hit and catch protesters. Please passHKHumanRightsDemocracyAct Stop PoliceBrutality in HK Punish who destroy HK's freedom & democracy

HK police loves beating up students and sexual assaulting young girls. Not coming is for the sake of young actors and actresses. PoliceBrutality FreeHongKong
