Hong Kong’s June 4 vigil at Victoria Park marking the 1989 Tiananmen Square crackdown, is expected to stay silent for another year. Local authorities say they have not received any application to hold a public assembly for the 34th anniversary, even as parts of the park have been closed for renovation. Meanwhile, key organisers of the vigil remain behind bars on national security law-related charges. The Post explores the history of the vigil and how it became a highly symbolic event, until its disappearance from public view.
