💨 Abstract

Hong Kong's last major opposition party, the Democratic Party, has taken a significant step towards disbanding, following a special meeting where 90% of members voted for arrangements to do so. This decision comes under pressure from China amid a national security crackdown. The party, founded before Hong Kong's return to Chinese rule in 1997, has been a significant opposition force pushing for democratic reforms and upholding freedoms.
