Dear Hong Kong list,
New School of Democracy has invited Galschiøt to visit Taiwan. During his stay from Oct. 5-11th he will participate in the debate about the Chinese aggression and see the huge 3D printed Pillar of Shame model that was made for the June 4th commemoration of the Tiananmen massacre.
Hong Kong’s Secretary of Security, Tang Ping-Keung still refuses to inform whether he has made an arrest warrant for Galschiøt. So Galschiøt has chosen not to travel with Chinese planes or land in China or Hong Kong.
Galschiøt looks forward to finally meeting his Taiwanese friends, and Hongkongers who have had to flee.
Amongst the activities at Galschiøts visit are:
- Attending the closing ceremony of the Independent Chinese Pen PEN Center (ICPC).
- Meeting with Taiwan legislators and attending the Excellent Legislators Award Ceremony organized by Citizen Congress Watch (CCW).
- Meet with artist Kacey Wong and Taichung NGO (CCAT).
- Meet with Human Rights Advocacy Groups and Hong Kong Activist Groups.
- Finally see the impressive 3D Printed Pillar of Shame
- Participation in National Day.
Please feel free to contact New School of Democracy or Jens Galschiøt for questions or interviews.
