ABC of Hong Kong

A problem that is easy to fix
Big protests are being held
China should let Hong Kong keep their old laws
Democracy is all the people of Hong Kong want
Extraditions will happen if china prevails
Force is being used and people are being hurt
Good things will not come of this
Hate is being directed at china
I know that there is a way to fix this
Justice is what the people need
Korea is like china, a dictatorship
Long protests are being held
Maybe china will soon see sense
Never should this have happened
Only china and Hong Kong can settle this
Political debates should happen in this situation
Questions are being raised on this topic
Rouge citizens are protesting for their freedom
So much unnecessary violence
To extradite is china’s goal
Using brute force is not always the answer
Violence is all that is happening in Hong Kong
When china prevails, all is lost for the people of Hong Kong
eXaggerating is all china is doing
You cannot stop to reason with china
Zombies, Chinese zombies following their leader to take Hong Kong

I think I understand the concept of this post but ,on letter A,it says it's an easy problem to solve but again ,if it's causing so much violence, exactly how easy is this problem to fix?
i agree if this is easy to solve it wouldn't be mentioned as much on the news
if this is easy to solve WHY DO PEOPLE PROTEST
I agree, it is NOT an easy fix.
it doesn't seem as easy as everyone says because we signed the country over to China and we need to keep our promise. Even though you should never break a promise, we sort of need to step in and stretch the promise a little. Do you agree?
That's an interesting phrase - stretch the promise! Can you say why we need to stretch the promise?
Because if we don't "stretch the promise" then they might carry on shooting rubber bullets and hurting the population.
Yes I agree I also think we should stretch the promise as it might stop the violence
I agree maybe do more research before you do this but well done
Well it is true. It is easy to fix. The Chinese Government should make the place better, not making their region a place for brawls. But you do have a good point.
True
I agree with you because if police are sending out tear gas, then things are going badly. Also, there have been violent protests

I find this very creative, but what do you mean by zombies? Most of the Chinese citizens-as we learnt from our BNC lesson- are not pround of being Chinese, so how are they zombies following they're leader?
H ow are we going to solve this?
O nly two countries can make this right.
N othing but violence.
G et everyone to safety
K illing our bond between countries
O ne chance to make it right.
N ow is the time to fix it.
G et everyone to peace.
Thank you for reading our poem on Hong Kong. We have really enjoyed our lessons from the BNC
What is it about the lessons you're enjoying?
i enjoy sharing my opinions with my class.
Everything really!The lessons are so informative and loads of people In my class are developing there news club skills.
Ithink i understood but when you said only 2 countrys can make it right do you meen England and China or China and Hong Kong because i think china and England because China wants beijing and we signed the contract saying one country two systems .
Well done for being open-minded and asking a question here, extraordinary_tamarind! What do you mean by 'China wants Beijing'?
I agree with you extraordinary_tamarind!!
brilliant!!! :}
Very cool and creative comment, passionate_dinosaur.
I agree but maybe they are following their leader; Carrie Lam because of the protests and maybe they are fed up of what is happening and would like to put a stop to it .
20 Sep 2019
this is very inventive
22 Sep 2019
I agree with entertaining strawberry because if it is easy to solve then why do people protest and still do?
23 Sep 2019
Loved the O one thought it is very true
23 Sep 2019
Why are they protesting?
23 Sep 2019
S is correct there is to much unnecessary violence happening in hong kong
24 Sep 2019
I think this is not news its ABC
Why might it be used to explain what this student has learnt in their session?
they might use it to explain it because it would be a different way and because it is harder to think of the word also to challenge themselves
24 Sep 2019
well done positive_potato
24 Sep 2019
I disagree because why aren’t they stopping it
24 Sep 2019
How is A an easy fix, i understand that it should be easy to fix when speaking about it but there are more problems to this than shown, China are breaking the contract with England and taking away Hong Kong's human rights meaning that Hong Kong could be in danger here and the riots are not helping but are raising awareness, therefore i do not understand how this can be an easy fix. When thinking about it, there has to be many debates and reasoning before this can become an easy fix, but well done positive_potato for the good efforts. :)
You're speaking up well here, responsible_duck - making your point clearly and doing so in a respectful way.

intereresting...HOW DO YOU KNOW THIS?
25 Sep 2019
i disagree with this because i think Hong Kong needs help
25 Sep 2019
I like that it is in A B C I like it so much
I agree but isnt it about helping hong kong?
26 Sep 2019
I wish o were as good as u
27 Sep 2019
A B C is cool but i think hong kong needs help
Why does Hong Kong need help?
I think you are correct because China think that they own Hong Kong so we need to do something about it
27 Sep 2019
How is A easy to fix?
27 Sep 2019
This is a very good piece of work but do you think that they're all correct.😋
28 Sep 2019
These are all correct and I also think that this is not going to be easy to fix. Although we cannot do anything to fix this problem China and Hong Kong need to fix it themselves.
good post
29 Sep 2019
i like how this is written well done
29 Sep 2019
The abc is nice and creative
30 Sep 2019
I love X because it is totally true and shows a real aspect and different side to all this arguing. H is very true as well because of all this violence and hate in not just Hong Kong but also in China.
In class we have been looking at two sides of this story between Hong Kong and China by looking at people with different jobs, lifestyles and countries and seeing if it would change their point of view. Using this evidence I found that most people in China did not want Britain to intervene I think this connects to K
30 Sep 2019
This is a brilliant way to explain the bad things that China are doing to Hong Kong.
30 Sep 2019
Praise: that was a really good piece of work. It was explained clearly even though you had to make sure they were all in alphabetical order.
Improvement/What to think about: On A it says it's an easy fix. In a way it is because China should just let Hong Kong be free, therefore it's easy and it's all they have to do but in a way it's it also not. Because of the violence, it might take a while for China to change their ways and Hong Kong to calm down.
30 Sep 2019
You are so creative and A will it be easy to solve? I hope so.
30 Sep 2019
By zombies do you mean politicians?
I don't know as well
01 Oct 2019
if it is easy to fix why is it not fixed yet ?
01 Oct 2019
WHY!
01 Oct 2019
I do mostly agree,but right at the start I thought why does A say that the problem is easy to solve but it isn't solved yet.For I can you actually tell us how to solve it, I think you can have good ideas. For O why would you think that only China and Hong Kong can solve the problem,is like to say that England can't help.Z what do you mean by zombies? Politicks?
01 Oct 2019
I like I beause there is a way to fix it.🛠
01 Oct 2019
I don’t really agree with positive _potato .Z why do Chinese citizens are zombies following their leader? I thought they are people how are proud of being them and not zombies. A I don’t think it’s an easy fix maybe at the start but not now there’s to much violence happening to be an easy fix.
01 Oct 2019
Why is it an easy fix ? Because then they would have settled by now .( I )positive_potato is right about that this can be fixed but it doesn’t mean just with china and Hong Kong unless that China sees what they’re doing then ok (exaggerating.) But I think that other country’s could help. I don’t really agree with that . Positive _potato it was very good.
03 Oct 2019
i agree with P because political debates should happen in this situation.
03 Oct 2019
this was really clever also we need to help and be part of this because we all are a part of it including every country
Good point.
thank you
03 Oct 2019
this is very clever i love this
03 Oct 2019
How could we fix the problem?
04 Oct 2019
Great thinking of words well done 👍
05 Oct 2019
How would we fix the problem? I would say it wouldn't be easy because it's causing violence and is extremely out of hand. I agree with line C. Well done.
05 Oct 2019
You mean politicians instead of zombies?
05 Oct 2019
I understand this post but for Z zombies aren't real and this is a real matter not a fake one.
06 Oct 2019
Very creative but what do you mean by i know there is a way to fix this ?
07 Oct 2019
Very creative but I know the people of Hong Kong want democracy but the main thing is that they want their human rights.
07 Oct 2019
Although it is a great poem,I disagree.I think it is a simple problem BUT that doesn't mean it's easy to fix.
07 Oct 2019
I don't agree with this.
Can you say why?
07 Oct 2019
I disagree with A because there are problems that are not easy to solve.What should we do to solve the problem? Well its a difficult question because if we start war maybe it would effect Britain and we don’t want that to happen!
08 Oct 2019
I find this very creative!
08 Oct 2019
if its easy to fix why isn't it fixed yet
08 Oct 2019
thank you
08 Oct 2019
the abc is very creative and plus the voilence needs to stop and britain needs to help
08 Oct 2019
i hate what china is doing with Hong Kong its just horrible >:c
08 Oct 2019
I don't think we should be letting this happen
08 Oct 2019
I feel so sorry for the people of Hong Kong and the amount of money they get from tourism.
That's a very interesting point. How do you think the tourism industry will be affected by what is happening at the moment?
09 Oct 2019
"A problem that is easy to fix" I disagree because this isn't a really easy problem fix. We still have to make the decision of whether to intervene or not. China and we are business partners and we can't budge in their problem. We took rule over Hong Kong and now we've left it. Case closed. It wouldn't make sense to come back to it. I do feel sorry for Hong Kong but it isn't really our problem now. Also, this may ruin our relationship between us and China. This also will this affect our imports and exports from China.
"Hate will be directed at China" Hate may be directed at China but hate is all we can do. If we try and fight china we would be outnumbered. Probably by 1, 334,000,000, not to mention that China is quite a rich country and can practically make anything. So if we were to fight, we wouldn't have that much equipment to beat them off.
"Using Brute force is not always the point" I agree because a city vs a country is a big difference. Instead of Hong Kong battling China now. They could persuade them onto their side. Young students may have to skip school for these protest, some may even die. Action say more than words so if Hong Kong were to carry on, drastic measures may have to be drawn on them.
I love the post overall, beautiful sentences. I was just trying to reason with you and see why you put those. Great work though :) :) :)
Great reasoning shown, well done!
09 Oct 2019
Great work,I see this would've took a fair amount of time to make and I can see where you we're going with this whereas With A and Z im a bit vague and consider you we're stuck as for these could be quite difficult.''A problem that is easy to fix'' Some people could agree with this however i believe if this was an easy problem to fix wouldn't it have been dealt with already,China are slowly but surely breaking the contract that they made with England and taking away Hong Kong's rights which is inadmissible and everyone have human rights which cannot be taken away for no necessary reason.Adding onto my previous point,for I you have exclaimed ''I know there is an easy way to fix this'' like my antecedent point,if there was an easy way to fix this wouldn't this have been long gone by now?For Z you have mentioned the word Zombie i agree that they act like zombies however in no possible way are they zombies,I understand that you are doing the abc nevertheless if you we'rent i would highly suggest using the word ''Follower'' to show that the followers are attending their leader.Besides from that,i deeply agree with R as for there has been many reports of Hong Kong citizens protesting for their rights and freedom ,they are demanding it and you can cleary see it!This was a work of art this is extraordinary positive_potato keep it up!
I like that you have looked closely at this and given your opinion. This feedback is a helpful way to get everyone to think about these A-Z posts and make sure they are of a high standard. I have given you a star for your use of the reasoning skill.

I love this ABC i just wanted to ask N(ever should this have happened) i think it should of because it could help other countries learn from what happened to China and Hong Kong but at the same time it has cost many lives of the people who protested! Z is kind of funny because not all Chinese people are folowing what the govermet have been saying, most of them might even disagree.
10 Oct 2019
I agree with admirable_signature, because the abc would have taken a lot of time and effort to do, and is quite impressive, but it could do with some improvement- not all of this is very true. If it was an easy problem to solve, it would be solved already. But, people should be respectful towards this discussion starter, because it is very hard to find things that relate to this topic beginning with every letter in the alphabet. Praise positive_potato for his/her hard work, because this might have taken days to think up. Well done, positive_potato! (I would not be able to do this myself!)
19 Oct 2019
Fantastic I can see that you took your time from A-Z in the helpful Hong Kong Alphabet but the only thing I did not understand you put eXaggerating and I definitely agree with so much unnecessary violence because they don't really need to do unnecessary violence and for example, if someone got killed standing in a crowed and they did not do anything and they got killed that would be violence for no reason and the Z is obvious ther could not be zombies in Hong Kong following their leader to take Hong Kong and for A it says a problem that is easy to fix but in Hong Kong there is a problem and the alphabet says the problem will be fixed but the protesting and unnecessary violence is still going on and on and on and the problem won't be fixed but we don't know that and maybe it can be fixed.
06 Dec 2019
How is A an easy fix, maybe at first glance it seems an easy fix, but they are covering up the truth. China are taking Hong Kong's human rights causing people there to get mad and furious and by protesting, Hong Kong are making aware the problems so it definitely is not an easy fix. There are also many arguments to do with this, that's why it was an Issue on this website, so it can't be an easy fix.
