# *The Hong Konger*

Jimmy Lai has become a powerful symbol of the struggle for democratic rights and press freedom in Hong Kong as China’s Communist Party exerts ever greater control over the territory. Lai will receive the [2023 Milton Friedman Prize for Advancing Liberty](https://www.cato.org/friedman-prize-2023) this week. Eric Kohn is a producer on *[The Hong Konger: Jimmy Lai’s Extraordinary Struggle for Freedom](https://thehongkongermovie.com/).*
