- Description
- Hundreds gathered to bid farewell to an independent bookshop after weekly government inspections spurred by anonymous complaints forced it to close for good
"Mount Zero" closed after constant complaints to authorities, who had accused it of illegally occupying government land by tiling a pavement in front of the store, with the threat of fines and jail time.
Since Hong Kong imposed a national security law in 2020 the territory’s cultural sector has been hit by censorship fears, and the handful of bookstores that remain say they are operating in an environment of increasing pressure.
Hong Kong enacted the Article 23 national security law on March 23, with critics fearing that freedom of expression would further move underground.
