We are living in a time of mass anti-government struggle and millions on the streets from Cambodia to Turkey. Early in the Year of the Horse, a weekend of left-wing debate and discussion is being hosted by Socialist Action in Hong Kong with invited speakers from a range of organisations. This forum will discuss the way forward for women&#8217;s struggle, for workers after last year&#8217;s 44-day Hong Kong dockworkers&#8217; strike, and for the crucial upcoming months of the democracy struggle in HK. International speakers from Ireland, USA and England will also take part in person and via live skype link-up, discussing the building of a socialist movement to fight capitalism.<\/p>\n<p>Date: 8-9 Feb 2014<br \/>\nTime: 10am &#8211; 7pm<br \/>\nVenue: City University of Hong Kong (Room no.
