Share TweetBy Mario CasayuranThe Philippine opposition Liberal Party (LP) said Thursday brutality in all forms is attempting to quell the protests of the people of Hong Kong. ‘’It has gone beyond the extradition bill, but for greater freedom and survival in the face of China’s creeping authority that puts the administrative region’s fate in question,’’ Senator Francis N. Pangilinan, LP President, said in a ‘’statement of solidarity’’ with the people of Hong Kong. In the statement, the LP said:‘’With mostly only umbrellas as their defense, the protesters face bullets, batons, and tear gas of the authorities. ‘’Meanwhile, let’s extend our solidarity to the Hong Kong freedom fighters and learn from them.’’
