More than a dozen Hong Kong people protested outside the HSBC headquarters in London on Dec. 12 to protest against HSBC, one of the trustees of the Mandatory Provident Fund (MPF), for withholding substantial MPF savings belonging to overseas Hongkongers and demanded the return of the funds.
The protest was organized by the “MPF Access Alliance,” consisting of individuals with British National Overseas (BNO) visas. They protested outside the HSBC headquarters in Canary Wharf, London. Protesters chanted, “Release our retirement savings now, we want our money back, fight for freedom, stand with Hong Kong,” and other slogans.
