(CNN)A 23-year-old Singapore man of Chinese ethnicity who was studying in London has spoken out about racism linked to the coronavirus after suffering facial injuries in a "racially aggravated assault."

Jonathan Mok wrote about his ordeal in a public post on Facebook Monday, detailing how he was attacked by a group of people on Oxford Street, a busy shopping area in the center of the British capital, at about 9.15 p.m. local time (4.15 p.m. ET) on February 24.

Jonathan Mok said he was attacked in London, causing injury to his right eye. He posted two photos of his face on social media, explaining: "One image was taken in the mirror and hence, the laterally inverted image. The image that seems so be much swollen was taken as a selfie-- and the bruising only developed in the following day."

This photo was taken the day after the assault.

"The guy who tried to kick me then said, 'I don't want your coronavirus in my country', before swinging another sucker punch at me, which resulted in my face exploding with blood (from my nose)," wrote Mok.

A worldwide stigma placed upon China citizens and her economy is a huge blow to the spine so as to weaken their strength in becoming world economic power.

Well, this one na racisim for UK not in China.

beautifully beautiful !

Chinese people will now know that apart from Africa, there is no other place they are considered more than second class citizens in this world.

America o, UK ooo, Europe oo

Chinese people do not get any special privilege except when they come to Africa, we lick their boots as if they are white people.

But this is the same Chinese that don't want foreigners in their country..... So what are they doing in Europe, America and Australia?
The West is very tolerant compared to other countries. Chinatown is in almost every European country as well as the US and Australia and we don't really hear of them being harassed by their host.
The truth is that what most of the rest of the world enjoys in the West, they won't even allow it to happen in their country to foreigners from other race, including here in Africa and even among our fellow Nigerians as well.
I also noticed that the most racist or tribalistic people are the ones who have never left their state or country before. Because if you travel alot, you'd have exposure and you'd learn to tolerate other tribes, cultures and race.

Na wa o. Avoiding him because due to suspicions that he may be carrying the virus is bad enough, but attacking him is damn wrong and shows the level of illiteracy exhibited by his attackers!!!


Their govt should follow up on this case and prosecute the culprits, to avoid a reoccurrence in future, on other Chinese nationals

Thugs for jand dey stupid yeye

The mobile police assigned to them sef dey try solicit for them. Just imagine. Those ones don turn slave to Chinese just as they are to certain politicians.

For the fact that the Chinese are the lord of racist, I condemn the attack on this innocent man.


I hope they get the cure to this virus soon.

Fools.
If he had the virus all the imbecilic English who attacked him would have been infected too.

Almighty China!

When they were sinning against Jehovah Rapha I knew that they could get cornered by His divine wellness policies.

When they were busy tweeting rubbish, they didn't know it'd affect them.

Seriously

The same Chinese people that said this below are complaining about racism? Haq haq haq haq Racism kee you dia!

Xisnin:
