Exiled activist vows to keep fighting after Hong Kong jails her father

A prominent Hong Kong activist in exile in the US said a court ruling back in Hong Kong to imprison her father for eight months has only made her more determined to fight for the territory and its people.
“I think obviously the (Hong Kong) Government wants to use guilt, wants to use a lot of emotions to weight me down, but I’ve found my way to really find my calling in activism for Hong Kong,” said Anna Kwok, who is wanted by the Hong Kong Government for her pro-democracy activism.
“So, I’m not going to back down. I’m just going to be more strategic with more long-term thinking and be more dedicated to the Hong Kong cause,” she said.
Kwok spoke with The Associated Press on Friday, one day after a Hong Kong court jailed her 69-year-old father, Kwok Yin-sang, for attempting to withdraw roughly $11,000 from her insurance policy. Her father bought the policy when she was a toddler, and she gained control of it.
