Following HKU's decision to fire him, #BennyTai appealed to HKU's Chancellor and #HongKong Chief Executive Carrie Lam, emphasizing that "Though I know this is a futile process, Carrie Lam cannot evade from her responsibility of infringing Hong Kong’s academic freedom."

"Though I am now not at the position at the University of Hong Kong, I will not stop my research and teaching on the rule of law. I plan to use one to two years to complete a book on the rule of law for the general audience."

"I will also promote the rule of law education in the community of Hong Kong. To be sure, I will continue my fight for the rebirth of Hong Kong's rule of law. I hope to support other people who are also fighting for the rebirth of Hong Kong's rule of law."

"To do all these works, I need your support. If we do not give up, we will see the day of the rebirth of Hong Kong's rule of law."
