Alarming. Legco backs immigration bill despite exit ban fears https://news.rthk.hk/rthk/en/component/k2/1588168-20210428.htm
#HKGov is using security as an excuse again to ban people from leaving #HongKong. The bill Legco passed on Wed will enable authorities unlimited powers to prevent residents and others from entering or leaving the territory. The bill will come into effect on Aug1.

While the world is focusing on Russia invasion of Ukraine, we must not forget CCP’s arrest of Hong Kong 47 pro-democracy activists 1 year ago. This is a major step for CCP to eradicate freedom of Hong Kong. Many of the activists are still in custody, without bail.

A first aider plead guilty for riot. The judge asked, "a first aider could not commit riot?". Still, this judge is still not in any sanction list.

Jan 7: 10 people, including a singer and a pregnant woman, were sentenced to jail for 50 to 52 months related to the Polytechnic University Siege. What's bizarre is that the judge said it was a serious crime even when they didn't chant slogan nor take action. So they committed a crime by standing. This judge should be sent to jail!

When Hong Kong’s basic freedoms come under attack, newspaper publisher and pro-democracy activist Jimmy Lai finds himself in the crosshairs of the state and must choose between defending Hong Kong’s long-standing liberties, or his own freedom.

After Pro-democrats dominated the last district council election, #HKGov significantly reduce number of seats people can vote for down to 88. But appointed councils will be increase up to 179 and councils elected by appointed voters will be increased up to 176.
The district council will no longer be interested in serving the community any longer.

Hong Kong Protest anthem "Glory to Hong Kong" dominated all top 10 spots of iTunes as HK Gov't seeked to ban the song on Tuesday.
The Department of Justice seeks to ban the song from broadcasting, performing, printing, publishing, displaying or reproducing. If it is banned, it will be the 1st song that is banned in Hong Kong. However, many questions how it will be executed. All variation of "Glory to Hong Kong" are uploaded oversea, where HKGov has no jurisdiction. The song will only be banned unless internet providers, such as Google, compromised.
However, many worried that this may be the 1st step for Hong Kong to build a firewall similar to the one mainland China has. This would significantly deteriorate freedom which is already much worsen since 2019.

Jan 16: day 10 of Jimmy Lai's trial. Defense disputes relevance of expert reports to national security charges, while prosecution argues no need to prove Lai's actions caused foreign sanctions. Judge approves expert reports, stating they aid understanding of US actions against Hong Kong and whether they constitute "sanctions, blockades, or other hostile actions" under the National Security Law. Trial continues with the testimony of an accomplice witness.
It seems that the prosecution lacks a direct witness to support their accusations. Instead, they have relied on expert reports to present their case. The absence of a witness raises questions about the strength of the prosecution's evidence.

教育局年初發表視學報告,批評有學校唱國歌時師生歌聲略為細聲,建議學校加強學生唱國歌信心和習慣;教育局長蔡若蓮近日接受多份報章訪問時表示,為局方報告這講法辯護,「唱 K 都唔會好細聲唱」,因為唱歌就是要表達感情。 明報、星島、經濟、港台等均於今日刊發蔡若蓮專訪,蔡若蓮在訪問中提到,唱國歌聲線大小不是對錯問題,而是有關學生的意識,她指唱歌聲線反映投入度,音樂堂老師都會提醒學生唱得大聲一點,是正常建議,相信學校不會覺得有壓力。
The Education Bureau in #HongKong wants to make sure that students are singing the Chinese Anthem loud enough. This is another level of #brainwashing.
