Recent political developments, such as the implementation of the National Security Law, have sparked concerns about the preservation of Cantonese in the face of increasing Mandarin language dominance.

One petition with thousands of signatures calls for the preservation and promotion of Cantonese in education and media, emphasizing the need to safeguard the language for future generations. Another petition advocates for Cantonese language rights in response to government policies that prioritize Mandarin over Cantonese in public services and education.
