Hong Kong: 以賽亞出版社, 2020. Fifth Edition. Softcover with jacket. 在本書出版時，香港的大部份連儂牆可能已經被拆除。港九各處有百多幅連儂牆，寫上了數以萬計市民的心聲和訴求。可惜，這個麻木不仁的政府卻充耳不聞，反而用高壓的手段壓製香港人的言論自由、遊行集會的自由，公然踐踏《基本法》及破壞「一國兩制」「港人治港」的既定方針。 中央領導人口口聲聲表示中國人「一諾千金」，但實際上我們卻認清他們是「言而無信」。說好的「一國兩制．港人治港」淪為空談，連內涵也給掉包！香港人的憤怒，就是發現受騙了22年。「逃犯交換條例」修訂的失敗，就是源於中共沒有法治，沒有信守承諾，令香港人一再空等、失去信心！香港人，又怎會輕易放棄自己所享有的民主自由呢？ 中央應該檢視自己的不足，而不是硬要將香港變成 #警察城市。需知道，打壓越厲害，反抗力會更強。#五大訴求 不是奢求苛索，一切源於政府的錯誤，市民只要守護自己原有的權利！政府若不直接面對問題，從根本解決的話，逃避、轉移視線等伎倆只會令問題更嚴重，妄圖加大力度打壓，更是愚不可及！.
