中国民主进步联盟在悉尼 Town Hall 举行公开抗议及人权宣传活动

2026年9月13日，中国民主进步联盟在澳大利亚悉尼市中心 Town Hall 举行公开抗议及人权宣传活动。本次活动由中国民主进步联盟宣传部长纪懿宸与组织部长倪永久共同组织，覃夕权、覃夕权女儿、倪永柱、杨聪霞、Max、Jarry及Andy到场参加。参与者通过展示横幅、举起抗议标语、发表演讲及向过往市民派发宣传单等方式，向澳大利亚社会表达对自由、民主、人权与法治的支持。

On 13 September 2026, the China Democracy Progressive Alliance (CDPA) held a public protest and human rights awareness event at Sydney Town Hall in central Sydney, Australia. The event was jointly organised by CDPA Publicity Minister Yichen Ji and Organisation Minister Yongjiu Ni. Participants included Xiquan Qin, Xiquan Qin’s daughter, Yongzhu Ni, Congxia Yang, Max, Jarry and Andy. Participants displayed banners and protest signs, delivered public speeches and distributed flyers to passers-by, expressing their support for freedom, democracy, human rights and the rule of law.

此次活动重点关注新疆人权问题、香港近年来不断收紧的政治环境、香港支联会案件以及黄之锋等香港民主人士的处境。参与者呼吁国际社会持续关注新疆地区的人权状况以及当地民众的基本权利，同时关注香港公民自由和政治权利受到压缩的问题。活动现场还公开声援香港民主人士，呼吁释放黄之锋以及其他因参与民主运动和政治活动而遭到监禁或政治打压的人士，并要求停止针对不同政治声音的迫害。

The rally focused on human rights issues in Xinjiang, the increasingly restrictive political environment in Hong Kong, the cases involving the Hong Kong Alliance, and the situation facing Joshua Wong and other Hong Kong pro-democracy figures. Participants called on the international community to continue paying attention to human rights conditions in Xinjiang and the fundamental rights of people living in the region. The rally also highlighted concerns over the erosion of civil liberties and political rights in Hong Kong, expressed solidarity with pro-democracy activists, and called for the release of Joshua Wong and others who have faced imprisonment or political repression because of their involvement in democratic and political activities.

活动期间，中国民主进步联盟主席覃夕权、宣传部长纪懿宸、组织部长倪永久以及 Jarry 先后发表演讲。宣传部长纪懿宸不时带领参与者高喊“推翻中共暴政”“打倒独裁者习近平”等口号，现场响应热烈，气氛高涨。几位演讲者从不同角度谈到中国大陆当前的政治环境、人权状况以及长期一党专政所带来的社会和政治问题，并表达了反对中共专制统治的立场。演讲者呼吁终结中共暴政，反对个人独裁，并要求习近平下台，同时希望中国未来能够建立一个真正尊重公民权利、言论自由、民主选举和法治原则的政治制度。

During the event, CDPA Chairman Xiquan Qin, Publicity Minister Yichen Ji, Organisation Minister Yongjiu Ni and Jarry delivered speeches. Publicity Minister Yichen Ji periodically led participants in chanting slogans including “Overthrow CCP tyranny” and “Down with dictator Xi Jinping,” drawing an enthusiastic response and creating an impassioned atmosphere. The speakers addressed China’s current political environment, human rights conditions and the social and political consequences of long-term one-party rule from different perspectives. They expressed their opposition to CCP authoritarian rule, called for an end to political repression and personal dictatorship, and called for Xi Jinping to step down. The speakers also expressed their hope for a future China in which civil rights, freedom of expression, democratic elections and the rule of law are genuinely respected.

在有关新疆问题的演讲和宣传中，参与者强调，人权不应因为民族、宗教、政治立场或地域而受到区别对待，并呼吁外界继续关注新疆地区有关基本自由和人权保障的争议。活动成员表示，在民主社会公开讨论这些问题，是希望让更多普通民众有机会接触相关信息，并鼓励国际社会持续关注受到政治压迫或权利受到侵害的群体。

In speeches and campaign materials relating to Xinjiang, participants stressed that human rights should not be treated differently on the basis of ethnicity, religion, political views or geographical location. They called for continued international attention to concerns surrounding fundamental freedoms and human rights protections in the region. Participants said that publicly discussing these issues in a democratic society gives ordinary people an opportunity to learn more about them and helps encourage continued international attention to groups facing political repression or violations of their rights.

香港问题也是当天活动的重要主题。参与者重点提到香港支联会相关案件以及香港民主运动人士近年来所面临的处境，并通过标语、演讲和宣传单向公众介绍有关情况。现场多次呼吁释放黄之锋及其他被囚民主人士，并强调香港曾经拥有的言论、集会和政治表达空间不应因为政治原因不断受到限制。参与者表示，关注香港并不仅仅是关注某一个人或某一个案件，而是关注一个社会是否能够保障人民自由表达政治意见的基本权利。

Hong Kong was another major focus of the rally. Participants highlighted the cases involving the Hong Kong Alliance and the circumstances facing people associated with Hong Kong’s democracy movement. Through speeches, protest signs and flyers, they sought to explain these issues to members of the public. The rally repeatedly called for the release of Joshua Wong and other imprisoned pro-democracy figures and argued that freedoms of expression, assembly and political participation should not continue to be restricted for political reasons. Participants said that their concern for Hong Kong was not limited to one individual or one court case, but involved the broader question of whether people are able to express political opinions freely.

除了现场演讲之外，成员们还在 Town Hall 周边主动向来往行人派发宣传单。由于当天悉尼市中心人流较多，不少当地居民和来自不同国家的游客在经过活动现场时驻足观看，有人停下来听取演讲，也有人主动接过宣传资料，与参与者进一步交流有关中国、新疆和香港的问题。一些民众在听到现场演讲和口号后为参与者鼓掌、喝彩，并通过语言和手势表达支持，也有不少路人主动表示认同对自由、民主和基本人权的诉求。

In addition to the speeches, members distributed flyers to people passing through the Town Hall area. As central Sydney was busy that day, the event attracted the attention of local residents and visitors from different countries. Some stopped to listen to the speeches, while others accepted information materials and spoke with participants about issues concerning China, Xinjiang and Hong Kong. During the rally, some members of the public applauded and cheered in response to the speeches and slogans, while others expressed their support through words and gestures. A number of passers-by also voiced support for the principles of freedom, democracy and fundamental human rights.

覃夕权主席的女儿当天也来到现场参与活动，与其他成员一起出现在抗议现场并支持民主、人权与自由的诉求。组织成员认为，不同年龄层共同参与和平的公共政治活动具有特殊意义，因为争取民主与维护基本人权并不是某一个年龄、某一个地区或某一代人的事情，而是关系到每一个人的基本尊严与未来。通过这样的公开活动，也希望让年轻一代能够更加了解自由社会所赋予的表达权利，以及维护这些权利的重要性。

Chairman Xiquan Qin’s daughter also attended the rally and joined other participants in supporting the values of democracy, human rights and freedom. Members of the organisation said that the participation of people from different generations carried particular significance, as the protection of democratic values and fundamental rights is not an issue limited to one age group, region or generation. Instead, it concerns the dignity and future of everyone. Public events such as this also provide an opportunity for younger generations to understand the freedoms available in a democratic society and the importance of protecting those freedoms.

中国民主进步联盟表示，在澳大利亚这样的民主国家，通过和平集会、公开演讲、展示标语以及向公众派发宣传资料的方式表达政治观点，是海外民主活动的重要组成部分。组织希望通过持续的公开活动，让更多澳大利亚民众及国际社会人士了解中国大陆、新疆和香港的人权及政治现状，也希望为那些无法自由表达意见、因政治立场遭受打压或被监禁的人士发声。此次 Town Hall 活动不仅是一场抗议活动，也是一次面向普通公众的人权与民主宣传行动。

The China Democracy Progressive Alliance stated that in a democratic country such as Australia, expressing political views through peaceful rallies, public speeches, protest signs and the distribution of information is an important part of overseas democratic activism. The organisation hopes that continued public activities will help more Australians and members of the international community understand human rights and political conditions in mainland China, Xinjiang and Hong Kong. It also seeks to speak on behalf of people who are unable to express themselves freely or who face repression or imprisonment because of their political views. The Sydney Town Hall event was therefore not only a protest, but also a public campaign to raise awareness of human rights and democracy.

活动组织者表示，中国民主进步联盟未来将继续在遵守澳大利亚法律的基础上，以和平、公开的方式开展相关活动，持续关注新疆人权、香港民主人士及中国大陆政治自由等议题，并通过集会、演讲、宣传资料和公众交流等形式，将有关信息传递给更广泛的社会公众。中国民主进步联盟同时表示，将继续反对专制统治和政治迫害，为受到打压的人士发声，并推动自由、民主、人权与法治理念在国际社会得到更多关注和支持。

Organisers said that the China Democracy Progressive Alliance would continue to conduct peaceful and public activities in accordance with Australian law, while maintaining its focus on human rights in Xinjiang, Hong Kong pro-democracy figures and political freedoms in mainland China. Through rallies, speeches, information campaigns and direct engagement with the public, the organisation intends to bring these issues to a wider audience. The CDPA also stated that it would continue to oppose authoritarian rule and political repression, speak for those facing persecution, and promote greater international awareness and support for the principles of freedom, democracy, human rights and the rule of law.
