HONG KONG: A Hong Kong judge denied on Friday a government request for an injunction banning"Glory to Hong Kong", a defiant anthem that emerged from the city's huge pro-democracy protests in 2019.
"I cannot be satisfied that it is just and convenient to grant the injunction," said Chan, who is among a pool of jurists handpicked by the government to handle security cases. "Glory to Hong Kong" first emerged in August 2019 when the city was undergoing massive and at times violent pro-democracy demonstrations, with millions taking to the streets to demand political freedoms.
Officially, Hong Kong does not have an anthem and it follows China's national anthem,"March of the Volunteers".
