We chat pretty openly through whatsapp. In general the people don't really talk as much politics as we do, but my uncle is an exception . You just need to know your limits (i.e. don't go inciting unrest in the public), but its nowhere near what is being reported by western MSM.

My org have facilities in HK (and a small one in mainland as well), so I speak to some of the guys in the HK office occasionally, a couple of them got hit with the instant lock downs in their apartments. Obviously its not nice, but you stay in, get tested, and get let out after a few days.

It looks like they are already backing down somewhat.

What is also upsetting HK at the moment is some rugby tournament in South Korea. Apparently the HK protest anthem was played "in error" instead of the national anthem
