Amid the ongoing protests in Hong Kong, public servants from various government agencies are in the process of organizing a rally to call on government leaders to listen to the people.

As public servants in Hong Kong are required to remain neutral, this group of government workers has never spoken out before about the government’s handling of political and social issues. The rally, with the theme “Public servants are with the people,” is therefore an unprecedented event in Hong Kong’s history. It is scheduled to take place on Aug. 5.
