China’s message at the time was that even if change was coming to Hong Kong, its spirit of “anything goes” would be staying put. People gather outside a restaurant on a near-empty street in the Soho area of Hong Kong. Officials say they were “fluorescent.”A Hong Kong government spokesman told CNN this week that the activities were “well-received by local residents and tourists”. Under Hong Kong’s pandemic restrictions, live music was all but banned in small venues for more than 650 days. Months before the virus emerged, China had been tightening its grip on Hong Kong in response to pro-democracy protests that had spread throughout the city.

HONG KONG, June 6 (Reuters) - The Hong Kong government said on Tuesday that it asked a court to ban a protest song in a bid to prevent people from inciting secession or insulting China's national anthem. "Recently, the song has also been mistakenly presented as the 'national anthem of Hong Kong' repeatedly," the government said in a statement. "This has not only insulted the national anthem but also caused serious damage to the country and the HKSAR." The protest anthem was played mistakenly instead of the Chinese national anthem "March of the Volunteers", after the Hong Kong ice hockey team beat Iran at an international competition. Google has said it would not change its search results to display China's national anthem, rather than a protest song, when users search for Hong Kong's national anthem.
