We cannot afford another Li Wen Liang
We cannot afford to have another honest soul tortured
Just because they let out the ugly truth without falter
We cannot afford to declare another person dead later
Just to ensure that the regime would prosper
We cannot afford another funeral
We cannot afford another soul
Hailed as a martyr
By those who rule from above
We cannot allow the brave to face ridicule
For their courage to tell the truth
We cannot afford to remain indifferent,
For we would become an accomplice.
We cannot afford to measure our growth
Through the production of steel and cement
Through the might of an army
And allow the regime to give us false pride.
We cannot afford to get up and sing
Along to the regime’s propaganda leaflets
We cannot afford to blindly critique those who resist,
Just because their demands are not yet of our interest.
We cannot afford to be indulged in deception
By another tale from their disinformation
We cannot afford to be ignorant
And ignore voices that are deviant
We cannot afford to return to our comfort zone
After suffering alone
We cannot be naïve enough to hold the conviction
That submitting would bring you to salvation
We cannot afford to tease
Those who are braver than thee
For we would need their example
To teach those on the throne to fear the people

Supporters of 'Dama' Performers Wear Masks Made by Prisoners Exclusively for the Government
In the afternoon of February 9, some 'dama' performers and a group of male volunteers apppeared in Tuen Mun Park and distributed 4,000 face masks to the elderly including their fans. However, some masks were found yellowish in color, raising doubts as to whether they were second-hand masks.
Some volunteers at the scene were spotted wearing CSI masks produced by Correctional Services Department exclusively for government use. When being asked whether they are civil servants, volunteers did not respond.
On Monday afternoon, Dama performers continued to distribute 1,000 bottles of hand sanitizer at the same place. Some recipients tried immediately to check out the quality, commenting that the alcohol content was inadequate and the texture was sticky.
The background of the Dama, their supporters-volunteer and the source of their supply remained mysterious.

Mainland Chinese’s views on Red Cross in China
Netizen 1: ‘Don't think that donating supplies can stop me from getting money.’
Netizen 2: A series of actions.
Netizen 3: What does it mean??? People in Shuoguang donated the vegetables for nothing in return. How could the Red Cross ‘sell’ them to Wuhan?
Netizen 4: How ‘impressive’ is the Red Cross. People in Shuoguang donate supplies. People in Wuhan buy them. And the Red Cross gets all the profit. How impressive.
@Global Times: [Thank you people in Shuoguang! #350 tons of vegetables donated by Shuoguang have arrived at Wuhan# ] On the 29th of January, in Hubei Wuhan, 350 tons of vegetables donated by Shandong Weifang Shuoguang have arrived at Wuhan. It is learned that the 350 tons of vegetables will be sold to Wuhan citizens at a price lower than the market price. Profit derived will be donated to the Red Cross. The vegetables have arrived at Wuhan at noon and will be available for purchase in the afternoon. The vegetables will be at Wuhan people’s dining table in the evening.

Cathay Pacific and Cathay Dragon must also provide employees with a sufficient protective equipment such masks, gloves and hand sanitizer. Only this way can our colleagues’ health and safety be assured no matter where we fly."
