This morning, hundreds of university and secondary school students from Kaizhou and around the province staged a walk out and took part in a large-scale demonstration against the government and ruling party (the Republic's Conservatives). The activist credited with having organized the protests, 21-year-old Song Huan, says that her generation is fed up with the constitutional amendments proposed and passed into law by the Government:

When our parents voted for [the Republic's Conservatives] they thought that they were creating a better country for us to inherit. Today, young people are worried that soon we may not have a country which we are able to inherit if the government continues to move forward with its totalitarian reforms.

Among the young protesters was the Leader of the Opposition and Leader of the Lotus Party Wu Hán, who spoke to the crowd through a megaphone from atop a pickup truck:

Young patriots, while today it may seem that your government is ignoring you, with every breath in my body I will fight to ensure that this country, this Indrala, will be one of your dreams, your hopes and your beliefs in the future. When, if we are fortunate enough to gain your support, and our party forms government in 4258, we will immediately undo the damage that government has done in the short time it has been in office, and together, we will build a nation where you can reach your individual potential. It will take a bullet in my head before I stand down in this fight!

Leader Wu's speech was met with loud applause from the crowd of young people. It should be noted that as of now, the Lotus Party only holds a meager 5 seats in the National Assembly. The Jiaozhi Coalition of Conservative Parents issued a public statement which criticized Leader Wu for delivering such political remarks to a crowd of young people.
