In this picture taken on January 10, 2019, William Liu, a 22-year old democracy activist, looks at an altar in Liu Man She Tong, an 18th century ancestral hall belonging to his clan, in a rural northern part of Hong Kong known as the "New Territories". - The "New Territories" were leased by Britain from China in 1898 and under a colonial-era policy that remains in place, any male who can trace their lineage back to that period has the right to build a three-storey house on his land without paying a land fee.
