We are very pleased that the number of participants in this year's parade has reached a record high of 12,000 people. Thanks again to all the participants, organizations, sponsors, rainbow ambassadors, guests, performersand volunteers for participation in the parade.
We hope that our voice will be heard by more people, so that the government can face the different genders and sexual orientations and persuade the government to shoulder its to legislate the sexual discrimination ordinance, thus allowing the spirit of equality to manifest in Hong Kong.
Hong Kong currently does not have anti-discrimination legislation covering sexual orientation. A key demand this year has been to enshrine equality into the law through the introduction of legal protections for LGBT+ people.
The parade also focused on introducing more gender-neutral facilities, such as public bathrooms, to create an inclusive environment for non-binary and transgender people.
