多年以來,悼念六四屠殺的「國殤之柱」成了港大自治精神的地標之一,半年前被港大校方以「國安法」等理由半夜拆卸及移除,令人唏噓不已。有幸各方奔走之下,適逄六四事件三十三週年,香港反送中民主抗爭三週年,「國殤之柱」將重新樹立於歐洲民主抗爭前線的捷克首都,與「布拉格之春」及「天鵝絨革命」的歷史相呼應,與香港和世界同享人道精神和理念。

英國港僑協會 為感謝 布拉格港人文藝組織 我地 NGO DEI 就本次活動的悉心安排,創辦人鄭文傑 (Simon Cheng ) 將與丹麥藝術家高志活 Jens Galschiot (official) 及香港民主運動家出席「國殤之柱」的揭幕典禮及致辭,期盼半年前訪問捷克的民主之旅,能由當地的港人組織繼續傳承和發展,加強在歐港人的聯繋。

『「國殤之柱」在一夜之間,
從靜態的圖騰成了行為的藝術;
當它佇立時,既無聲,又隱晦;
當它破碎時,最直接、又具體。
無論何種形態,
都強烈地表達著強權猙獰下的扭曲模樣,
畢竟得著真理的過程是困軛和痛苦的,
這雕塑上痛苦受壓的眾生相,
成了思索、批判、反抗和革新的大學精神,
成了社會運動的搖籃。

「國殤之柱」在它的最後一刻,
學生擦亮了它最閃爍的餘暉,
港大挖空了自己的心臟、靈魂、尊嚴、價值和思想,
而當校方屈從權勢、流放學生時,
港大淪為社會建制的爭名逐利場。
沒有什麼比這雕塑的崩解,更能表達對不義的控訴,
「國殤之柱」原址的缺席,成了永恆的經典,
無形勝於有形,無聲勝於有聲。』

過去兩個月,#英國港僑協會 持續跟進及協助 被襲受害人 Bob Chan 及 #捍衛港人陣線 爭取 #合理待遇,並期望事件得到 #妥善處置,保障 #在英港人#安全#自由不受侵犯。由於六名涉嫌 #人身襲擊 的時任 #中共外交官 仍 拒絕配合 #英國警方調查,並 #奉召回國,本會在未來仍會持續關注事態,要求 #英國外交#司法 部門 #體面 地窮盡及完成所有程序及措施,讓 #法治#公義 被伸張且看見。

就有關事態,港僑會 創辦人 的分析及評論如下:https://youtu.be/i8CQkfzBnus

Hongkongers in Britain (HKB) has continued to follow up and assist the victim Bob Chan and the Hong Kong Indigenous Defence Force to fight for reasonable treatment. The #manchester incident should be properly handled and the #safety and #freedom in the UK shouldn't be trampled. Since the six CCP #diplomats who are suspected of #assault refused to cooperate with the UK #police #investigation and were recalled back to China, HKB will continue to pay attention to the situation and ask the British #diplomatic and #judicial departments to exhaust and complete all procedures and measures with #dignity, so that the rule of #law and #justice are upheld and seen.

The analysis and comments of HKB founder are as follows: https://youtu.be/i8CQkfzBnus
個人聲明:公義和人權絕不妨礙他人
Personal Statement: Justice and human rights upset no one, except for evils

你有沒有聽過在香港被打壓的異議人士,即使在避難也不能為自己發聲,因為說出這種經歷會被認為是「刺激」了別人?

你能想像我們在這樣的 #自由民主 國家中所經歷的這種持續的隱性審查,會以「公正」、「#中立」,甚至「#和平」、「#大愛」和「寬容」的名義出現嗎?

香港被禁止的用於教育公民自由 和 #人權 的書籍或遊戲在英國也可能被拒絕,我們被告知「這可能會讓一些人不高興」,「和平或 #安寧 受到干擾」。

香港被禁止的「#香港加油」的工藝品在英國也可能被移除,我們被告知在社區節日活動中應「不介入 #政治」。

中共的 #黨和國家領導人 #梁振英 甚至公開在社交媒體號令一些人秘密地監視海外流亡港人社區的活動,並向警方匿名告發那些「令政權當局難堪」的人。

昨天禁止了「#羊村 2.0」的教育課程,今天下架了「香港加油」工藝品,如果明天刪除了歌曲、圖片、書籍,甚至我們所捍衛的人類尊嚴,我們也不會感到驚訝。

我們被告知所有「妥協」都是為了「照顧他人的感受」,為了愛、為了和平、為了寬容。 不,沒有。 這是徹底的 #言論審查,甚至是 #人格污蔑

如果我們不阻止這種誤解,那麼這種為社會公義而努力的作為,甚至是被政權迫害的受害者,都會被錯誤地視為 #不便的存在、滋擾的根源。

我們敦促各界應繼續保持警惕,捍衛我們在英國的自由。關於人權和公民教育的活動和努力應該得到 #平等#尊重,不受阻礙。

Have you ever heard dissidents who are suppressed in hometown cannot speak out for themselves even in a refuge because such experience is deemed to ‘upset’ others?

Can you imagine such on-going censorship we have been experiencing in even such liberal democracy could be in the name of ‘#impartiality’, or even ‘#peace’, ‘#love’ and ‘#tolerance’?

We see board games for educating civil liberty and human rights which is banned in Hong Kong could be also rejected in the UK, we are told ‘it may upset some people’, ‘peace is #disturbed’.

We see crafts with a message about ‘Free Hong Kong’ in a market which is banned in Hong Kong could be also removed in the UK, we are ridiculed by ‘no politics’ in community festivals.

A Chinese state leader CY Leung publicly advocates anonymous people to secretly monitor exiled community events and grass on those ‘who upset or shame the authorities’ to the police.

A board game was banned yesterday, a craft is removed today, we are not surprised if songs, pictures, books, even human dignity we stand for will be cancelled tomorrow.

We are told all ‘compromises’ are for the sake of ‘taking care of others’ feeling’ - for love, for peace, for tolerance. No, none. That is a de-facto #censorship, and even a #vilification.

If we don’t stop this #misperception, such works for social justice and even victims of human rights abuses are mistakenly seen as a source of #inconvenience and #disturbance.

We urge a continued vigilance in the defence of our #freedom in the UK - events about human rights and civic education should be #equally treated with #respect and without let and #hindrance.
