How can we as Hong Kongers support people in prison? Both political prisoners and people in for other offences?

I have tried writing to prisoners but find myself wondering what kinds of things they would like to read about. Any advice on how to get started? I already have a channel for sending letters, just looking for inspiration about what to write.

And is there anything else that could help? I know our prison system is pretty draconian. There’s a lot of stigma on release as well, which doesn’t reflect well on our society or the prison system.

How was your treatment inside? What is the worst part of the incarceration for most people? Did many people speak english or do you speak Cantonese?

Thanks in advance, take care.
