Survive. Well. Its good to have you with us at every protest of hong kong has seen in more than 6 months its the police force thats always been of the center of them theyve been criticised ridiculed attacked and accused of brutality and yet they must come out protest off to protest on to the streets to police the actions of their fellow citizens what does that do to these men and women we want to know and correspondent but try to bring us some on says. When david chan joined the Hong Kong Police force a few years ago he never thought that he would see scenes like these david tanis not his real name. Base was last november when protesters and Police Clashed for hours on the University CampusHong Kong Police have come on the massive attack. And david says its not only the physical threats to the 5. So youve been working long hours theyve been blamed fingers pointed at them its very exhausting both physically and mentally. This is what hes talking about criticising and often could sing at the police many offices which theyve been accused of indiscriminate breasts beating up subdued protesters and threatening to shoot tear gas into apartments. Videos of Police Brutality circulating online. Bystanders who get into arguments with officers risk getting pepper sprayed a clear violation of the rules thats david you know. Im just frustrated because some offices really just like the protestors and honestly they really want to beat them up but i think this isnt the right mentality we should be impartial as Police Offices we shouldnt take sides he says hes currently doing as much as 100 hours of overtime every month while he isnt serving at the front line. Often heis to be at the side of demonstrations david is hiding his identity feel being bullied by protesters online and he worries about professional repercussions. As a member of the Hong Kong Police force i shouldnt be criticizing it in public but as a citizen of hong kong i have to say the Senior Officers have basically messed it up. Officials deny the police have done anything wrong the police has been the focus of the demonstrators since june when they 1st violently broke up a protest. Since then public anger has steadily grow especially among the young david says most of his friends have turned their back on him in the past 6 months. I was a bit upset about it because they were my good friends but then i thought about it theres nothing i can do he says several of his colleagues have quit their jobs but while hes at odds with the current tactics he has no intention to leave. I should be staying in the police force and try to maintain the right mentality and to uphold the values of the police. Its a tough challenge for david stuck between loyalty and dont. Trust one of but his berlingo filed a report on his back in beijing where he joined us from but heres one of the things the officer said in your report was we should be impartial we shouldnt take sides and the longer these protests carry on are people being forced to pick sides i mean can you even remain neutral in hong kong today. What this office says talking about peters is of course to what extent should offices be allowed to let their feelings into fear with how they carry out their duty and what he is saying and what many critics of the police are saying is that the Police Leadership to has not done a very good job in containing this problem but what we see is that the situation in hong kong is highly emotional people are in some kind of emotional state of emergency throughout the whole city it has been interfering with friendships people have bonded over similar views or they have been estranged from each other over differing views as the officer has had also in this report and what we also see in surveys that have been carried out related to the questions of the protests is that very very few people. I dont know or i dont have an opinion in these surveys the population is really divided and its highly emotional you say its emotional material but you are one person whos been reporting on these protests for months now and youve spoken to all sides Police Officers their families protesters the government is there a sense mathias that somethings changed irrevocably in Hong Kong Society and no matter how things turn out they will not be the same again. This is probably one of the few points both camps could relate to the prodemocracy protesters from a very early stage how have said many times to me that they felt that this was kind of an end game that they felt that this might be the last time they can come out onto the streets to fight for their position and one teenager recently told me that he had the feeling that he might be the last generation of hong kong is as he put it the last generation who grew up with these freedoms and this distinct identity on the other hand the supporters of the government and the pro establishment camp they have the feeling that something is lost in these months off clashes and violence and that this rule of biting and business friendly lifestyle of hong kong has come to an end and is building and beijing thank you very much for that Human Rights Watch has been well issued a scathing review of the Chinese Government in its latest world report it condemns beijing st bernard of week of muslims and the socalled political education camps and jump province the report also criticizes china for ongoing Media Censorship and the most surveillance of its own people calling it the most intrusive public want to drink system in the world has ever known and you require many of them and. So if youre richardson is the time director of Human Rights Watch she joins us now from new york militarism thank you so much for making the time now the report says that. Actions beijings actions need to be challenged otherwise were looking at a court weakened International Human rights system and should governments be taking a lead in this action or is that hoping for too much. No thats absolutely what needs to happen and its not just individual governments but indeed but walks or institutions for example the Un Human Rights Council the European Union as a bloc the like minded governments that tend to come together already rans human rights issues could take stronger and more frequent collective positions even and if you like the organization of islamic cooperation could come together to push back against chinas abuses of weaker is another target muslims theyre part of the point were trying to make is that in doing so they have a lot more leverage against an increasingly powerful Chinese Government but then soulful what are the examples of governments of presented to china i mean you have the United States of addressing the un human rights on so you have a genocide against me and muffler its treatment of my daughter did but nothing really against china so what really is the example that john locke and look at o. B. L. Fatals well there i think the case is actually a good point of comparison because really the push for an investigation and accountability into an appalling Human Rights Violations against that community has come really jointly from the European Union and the oh i see together saying you know these are serious violations and they have to be investigated through the auspices of the united seamen Rights Council and of course the difference is that the myanmar government isnt nearly as powerful as the Chinese Government and so it takes political courage for governments to do that but its no less. Over the political will be full coming so that its on from here with us whats going to sell much for joining us thanks.
