[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Hong Kong : 2 May, 2008 - Hong Kong University student Christina Chan Hau-man (陳巧文) wrapped the Tibetan snow lion flag around her body and later began waving it during Beijing Olympic torch relay in Hong Kong.

Several onlookers heckled Christina Chan, shouting "What kind of Chinese are you?" and "What a shame!" In the end, she and some of the protesters were taken away against their will by the authorities via a police vehicle for their own protection.
