Socio-political website The Online Citizen (TOC) resumed operations on Monday (26 November), after it received donations from the public to purchase new computer hardware needed to run the site.
The long-running independent online media platform, which was founded in 2006, stopped operations on 20 November after police seized electronic equipment such as desktop computers and mobile devices from the home of TOC chief editor Terry Xu.
..........On Monday, however, Xu posted a note on the website saying that TOC will continue its publication, even as the police continues its investigations.
He added, “Other than purchase of new hardware, a number of kind hearted individuals have signed up as supporters on Patreon or subscribers to the site. In light of such support, we cannot but to continue our work to repay their kindness.
“We would like to express our thanks to all who have contributed so far, whether it is in monetary or in contribution of article and information.”
