2014年9月28日,成千上萬要求普選和民主的抗爭者走上了香港街頭。雨傘運動之稱呼,來自抗爭者攜帶雨傘去抵擋警察的胡椒噴霧以保護自己。他們佔領了市中心的主要街道,這影響至深的香港社會運動,歷時79天,逾120萬人參與。

2019-2020年的反對修訂《逃犯條例》運動是雨傘運動的更大規模延續,單是2019年6月16日就有逾200萬上街遊行。

逾百市民在今日下午6時開始,在金鐘太古廣場中庭共三層及通往金鐘廊行人通道聚集,以個別不同方式,紀念警方在6年前在金鐘站外的大型佔領雨傘運動,警方發射了87個催淚彈,點燃起群眾抗爭運動。

最少6輛警車及約20名警員一度在太古廣場外戒備。

有黑衣人在中庭用手機顯示「六年了」,並在地上展示4張「香港加油」、「Save 12 Hong Kong Youth」等海報。有人舉黃傘「撑自由 反惡法」。

太古廣場內有人帶頭叫「光復香港,時代革命」口號,有人和應,亦有人唱《願榮光歸香港》。

太古廣場的三樓商場,有3名便衣警員現場拍攝在場人士,包括記者,引起一陣騷動,其中一名警員出示委任證,並要求市民與他們保持距離。

7:35 Lunch 哥 David與其朋友在太古廣場中庭唱《願榮光歸香港》。

On 28 September 28 2014, tens of thousands of protesters demanding universal suffrage and democracy took to the streets of Hong Kong. The Umbrella Movement – so called because demonstrators carried umbrellas to shield themselves from police pepper spray – took over the main street in the city centre. A seminal event for Hong Kong that lasted 79 days and drew over 1.2 million people.

The 2019-2020 campaign against the extradition to China Ordinance is a larger-scale continuation of the Umbrella Movement. On June 16, 2019 alone, more than 2 million people took to the streets.

Starting at 6 pm today, over 100 citizens gathered at the three-storey atrium of Pacific Place in Admiralty and the pedestrian passage leading to the Admiralty Centre to commemorate the large-scale occupation protest of the Umbrella Movement outside Admiralty Station 6 years ago. 87 tear gas canisters were fired then, igniting the mass protest movement.

At least 6 police vans and about 20 police officers were on high alert outside Pacific Place.

Someone in black used his/her mobile phone to display “6 Years Already”, and displayed 4 posters with “Add Oil (Bravo) Hong Kong” and “Save 12 Hong Kong Youths”, etc, on the ground. Someone held up a yellow umbrella to “support freedom and fight the evil laws.”

Someone took the lead in chanting “Free Hong Kong, Revolution of the Times” and some responded. Others sang “Glory to Hong Kong”.

On the third-floor of Pacific Place, three plainclothes police was videoing.

At 7:35, “Lunch Brother” David and his friends sang “Glory to Hong Kong” in the atrium.

At 7:40, a large number of police officers entered Pacific Place and pulled up a orange blockade line in the atrium to stop and search citizens and reporters. Several citizens including David, this reporter, were intercepted by police officers for investigation, registering ID cards and press cards. We were released after a commotion for 40-60 minutes.
