July 1 is the anniversary of the handover of Hong Kong to China. As the date approaches, Hong Kong becomes a sea of red, decorated with Chinese Communist Party (CCP) flags and Hong Kong regional flags.

However, many of the five-star CCP flags and the bauhinia flags of Hong Kong have been defaced or stolen.
