Hong Kong’s largest teachers’ union to disband after pressure from pro-establishment media

The Hong Kong Professional Teachers’ Union has announced it is disbanding after pro-establishment and state-owned media accused the group of “hijacking the education sector”. Hong Kong’s biggest teachers’ union was founded in 1974 and currently has 95,000 members. One day after the organisation announced its decision on August 10, 2021, dozens of members gathered outside its Causeway Bay service centre to show their support.
