A record 4,000 people took part in the fourth Hong Kong Pride Parade today, a day before LGBT rights advocates confront homophobes at a closely-watched public forum. The number of participants joining the march titled ‘Dare to Love’ on an unusually hot afternoon from Victoria Park in Causeway Bay was significantly up from last year’s 2,500, according to organizers.
