In interpreting Macao’s democracy movement, the works from democrats and activist can shed light on what factors shape the political development in Macao. Antonio Ng Kwok Cheong’s classic work Democratic Faction (Minzhu pai) and Sulu Sou Ka-hou’s work The Day and Night of June 30: A Record of Macao’s Social Movement and Withdrawal! Are You Still Remember? provide important insights for us to understand Macao’s democracy movement. Ng’s work adopted a social-organizational approach to analysis how different factions in the society are shaping Macao’s political development. So’s work is based on his experiences in the Anti-Chan Protest and Anti-Retirement Package Bill protests in 2014 to show how new tactics and new generations could be used to deal with Macao’s democracy movement.
