- In recent months, Thailand has seen waves of youth-led protests looking very much like the ones seen in Hong Kong in 2019.
From hand signals to flashmobs, Thai pro-democracy activists are deploying tactics learnt from Hong Kong demonstrations. Meanwhile, Hong Kongers are organising online campaigns to support and boost awareness of the Thai protests.
They are part of a unique Asian youth movement called the Milk Tea Alliance, which also includes Taiwanese supporters.
Two prominent protesters - Joshua Wong from Hong Kong and Akkarasorn Opilan from Thailand - tell us how both sides are helping each other, and what this generation of Asian youth activists hopes to achieve.

You go girl
I was thinking this too

Hi
Yes. This is the point we were making. That the girl so very articulate and passionate about her discussion.
@rom tn op said he was silly when he was 16, not her
@ヨニス you realize you can learn American English without living in America?
Attaining democracy or indipendence is not easy kids, river of blood have flown , and several lives have been destroyed.
Read the indipendence story of any country ( definately not from bbc ).
love and respect to Hong Kong, Thailand, and the Uyghurs. may they all be freed from tyranny.
@MrAauya while as of yet still a semi-autonomous region, the CCP has been working hard to cast a oppressive yoke on them like they do the rest of China.
@MrAauya th-cam.com/video/ApZ-_TNFZf8/w-d-xo.html
if so many people in Hong Kong are protesting against the growing influence of their central government, questions should be asked.
@MrAauya and considering all I meant to do was condemn tyrants and not even make this about Hong Kong, that speaks volumes about you. I suppose in that case you’re in favour of the oppressive CCP. also, I’m not in any way obliged to tell you private details such as where I’ve been.
Thank you :) We have been in this fight for democracy for so long. no-one telling us that revolution would be difficult haha
Support Young Thailander. !!
I support democracy in Thai and Hong Kong from South Korea
I love that around the world people my age are fighting for what they believe in.

Milk Tea Alliance... as a Brit, it sounds like my kinda group! I support the tea! ... and the Hong Kong and Thai activists too obviously. People have the right to be free of tyranny while drinking a cup of tea.

@Get your popcorn ready Do you have anything better to do besides spamming the same link to several different people? You're breaking TH-cam's ToS.

Long live democracy and freedom!!!!!! 🇭🇰🇹🇭
#RememberHongKong
Hopefully we won't have to remember and it can stay as it was before all this CCP nonsense
unfortunate hardly anyone talk about right now
Milk Tea Alliance or the fight for freedom and democracy!
Too much milk tea will kill you, high sugar content.
@@kengng8797
Don’t have to have sugar, doughnut.
Plus yeah, irrelevant.
She's only 16??😯😯😯
@@astronautninja6369 oh God
Noah get the ark now
Really???
It’s called fighting for what you think is right
People will do what they think is right and what they want
It's impressive when people young enough to still live at home get seriously involved. When you don't pay for life, people don't usually have as much interest in politics
Joshua started his political activities at 17
How young & precious souls..
I believe the morning sun of democracy will rises one day.
Be safe.
Support from Korea.
Brave hearts and so young!

You forgot all south and central asian countriea like vietnam, cambodia,laos and kyrgyzstan

Why should we ? Hong Kong is just part of China stolen by the British and now
China is just claiming what was one stolen from China a
yeah, not forgetting he's contribution to the destruction of Hong Kong lives. remember it well.
We will not forgive you as traitors and disgrace of the nation.
@@mrsupermannow
Hong Kong is part of Hong Kong and the people of Hong Kong have lost their freedom because China doesn’t respect the right of the people to self determination.
@@chrisj9700 learn some history and read more. don't be pet of BBC propaganda.
Lessons from Hong Kong Protest: 1) No foreign Money 2) No violence 3) No vandalism 4) No publication of police and their families' private information 5) Watch out for foreign power hijacking the protest movement 6) Be reasonable, know when to quit
Chinese are we lo?
Know when to quit? Why would the HKers give up? They haven’t won yet.
Democracy is rising in the world! I am so happy,
support Thailand and HK from Poland!
Poland is not a democratic country fight your own corruption and tyranny, support.
@@neoxavier5477 I know, and I do.
It is more democratic than Thailand and HK though, we are in the EU after all.
And it's not very corrupt. The problem is with the church's influence on politics. Economically Poland is doing quite well

This little girl never heard about 1989 protest in Tiananmen Square.
if the network was so successful like nowadays, Tiananmen Square would not be a successful western propaganda like forever- -!
So what happened? Some of my teachers was there. But it seems you IDIOTS know it better than us.
@@user-oo7eq4pl7b
In 1989
The Tiananman Square Protest/Tiananman Square Massacare
Thousands of pro-democracy protesters young and old were outside Tiananman Square wanting to stop the corupt government at the time peaceful standing and sitting in protest until the government brought troops armed with guns and trucks and tanks and literally massacred THOUSANDS of unarmed protesters and injuring many more and put a end to the protest with a bloody day and the movement.
Story is shorten
@@UnknownUnknown-nd6ho hahahahahaha like fake joke. really brainwashed information again and again.
This girl never heard about Opium Wars.
When I went to mob, dictators attacked people by spraying tear gas on them.
Shot dead many people. I want to say to the leader named Prayut. If they can't take care of the people, they leave.
Coughing duo from the hearts of Thai people in the whole country
This guy was Vietnamese, but emigrated to HongKong
He is not a Vietnamese with that small monolid eyes. He is a Han Chinese.
That sounds like the democratic party : no questions can be asked
The over 75's are now being hunted down by a new 800 strong BBC team of license enforcers and bailiffs who cost £38M to setup.
power to the real humans
The boy want democracy in HK, the girl want political reform in Thailand. Differences do exist. ....Wish them well and safe!
Hong Kong was a part of the UK?
It was a colony of the UK for 99 years until 1997. After that the UK ceded control of Hong Kong back to China, with China agreeing to allow HG to retain their right to an autonomous democracy, free from the influence of the One Party Communist Party lead Mainland China until 2047. However, China is starting to renege on that deal with the people of Hong Kong, by exerting undue influence over their politics in an attempt to regain full control sooner.
fight for freedom,stand with Soctland and Northern Ireland
태국 민중의 승리를 기원합니다. Love & respect to you.
Maybe it’s just me. Do you notice the size difference btw the protesters and the police? Not wonder they identify themselves as milk tea and butter cup.
We filipino in Philippines are most democratic nations in Asia. Free speech and freedom of expression. People can rallys. We can say anything to our leader.
Dude, your leader murders his own people, maybe you should speak up a little louder...
Political should be used to incite economy but not inverse.
Support from Taiwan 🇹🇼
You also have the support from the fatherland and Britain
那为什么不快把香港奋战在一线的自由同胞们接过去呀?为什么你门媒体下面全是反对接纳香港人的声音啊?
@@user-oo7eq4pl7b 因為台灣的確還沒有能力把全部的抗爭者接過來啊然後你也有資格問啊?你這麼關心先叫共產黨把12個想偷渡來台的港人交出來好嗎?
台灣現在的難民法就卡在過往中華民國時期的憲法不認為港澳=外國,要修法就要走法定程序,因為台灣是法治國家,不是黨治國家。看你這麼有興趣給你看一些相關新聞:

you would think it would be called boba alliance in 2020
Why milk tea?
KEEP IT UP!!!!
Guys National Security Laws.
Freedom for hong Kong
Fight for freedom tgt!!!!
Stand with Milk Tea alliance,keep the fight going
Give it up. Fighting for freedom do not involve in pledging allegience to and displaying the flags of foreign states. All citizens in any country are support to pledge allegience to the law of the land. In HK those law are the BASIC LAW OF HKSAR and not that of the US or UK.
LOADS OF SUPPORT FROM INDIA !❤️
And how well have the Hong Kong protests worked out so far?
You should be afraid
Keep up the fight for freedom
surprised they don't get married. anyhow tai girl's accent is what she gets in america, while hongkong guy seriously gets from local hongkong, a big difference. anyway he had this interview from … a jail or something.

They are brave people to fight for young generation, unlike chinese.
Chinese volunteers fought full might of American military aggression in Korea. These kids are only brave with US backing but ran away as soon as US abandoned them.
Good job, kids!

CHINESE BOTS ALREADY HERE WITH COMMENTS AND DISLIKES HAHAA
Milk Tea Alliance, seriously? BBC Is always creative.
The battle is not mine but the Lord’s. I rejoice because I have complete confidence in you God!
the Lord placed mud on the blind mans eyes and he was healed, Leaders of Hong Kong, I tell you the truth because The Holy Spirit speaks through this servant flesh, as the Father sent for you in Council for All Nations prepare the way together for legacies of fulfillment . Do this and You shall be known. He would not give mankind a challenge he could not excel for future preparations.
