It has been 29 years since the June 4 Incident happened in 1989. Throughout these years, Chinese communities have organised candle-light vigils every year non-stop, to commemorate the deceased democratic fighters. Winmas Yu invites Xiaogang Zhang from the Australian Values Alliance to share his experiences and views on why migrated Chinese should continue advocating for a more democratic China.
