Jimmy Lai is a political prisoner in Hong Kong. One of the great businessmen of the East, he is now a symbol of freedom’s struggle against tyranny. His son Sebastien is campaigning worldwide to win his release. I have done a podcast with him, a Q&A, here.
Sebastien was born in Hong Kong in 1994. His father has been in prison since December 2020. His father is in his mid-seventies, and, according to reports, he is kept in solitary confinement 23 hours a day. He easily could have left Hong Kong, when the shadows fell over that city. But he chose — yes, chose — to endure prison.
He is a remarkable man with a remarkable story, and Sebastien tells some of it in our podcast.
