Episode notes

There doesn't seem to be an outlet when emotions are running very high. I think it would be smart for the Chinese to allow that to continue, because it's clearly something that Hong Kongers feel very strongly about. It's an outlet for their creativity, and they are very attached to it.

As at the founding of the People’s Republic, the 70th anniversary featured a tightly controlled parade bristling with the country’s latest military kit. That marks a sharp contrast to the growing chaos in Hong Kong, where a protest spirit has sparked new art, and an impromptu anthem. And, we ask if hot-desking costs employees more than companies are saving.
