A combination photo of mail boxes from the British colonial era, which bear royal insignias, in Hong Kong, China, taken between October 15 and 17, 2015. Hongkong Post has decided to cover up the royal insignia on existing post boxes from Hong Kong’s colonial years, before the territory reverted to Chinese sovereignty in 1997, saying that the crown logo was considered “inappropriate”. Conservationists said the plan to cover up the royal cyphers on 59 post boxes was the latest government attack on the city’s heritage and identity, local media reported. (Photo by Tyrone Siu/Reuters)
