Fear of COVID19 Infection Arise in Hong Kong as Government Testing Centre Disposes of Medical Waste Casually at Nearby Dumpster


On the second day of the government-promoted Covid-19 universal testing scheme, government officials reiterated that measures have been taken at testing centres to ensure that they are compliant with infection prevention requirements.

When a Stand News reporter visited Ngai Tau Kok Sports Stadium, it was found that the outsourced cleaners from external cleaning companies were not wearing protective clothing. Biohazard wastes from the testing centre, which include personal protective equipments, masks, and disposable gloves, were disposed of at nearby dumpster.

The reporter also found some trash bags improperly tied. Paper cups and gloves were also strewn all over the place.

Mongolians Strike in bid to Prevent Beijing from Eradicating Their Mother Tongue in Schools


On the first day of the new school term on 1 September 2020, approximately 300,000 Mongolian students held a strike against the action by the Chinese government to replace the Mongolian language with Mandarin as the language of instruction in the schools of Inner Mongolia.

The Chinese police have offered 1000 RMB as a reward to people who make reports against those who went on the strike.

According to the news, the parents of at least two Mongolian students have protested against the authorities for forcing their children to return to school. They were a teacher and her husband. More Mongolians joined the movement in defending their mother tongue.

Employees of Inner Mongolia Radio and Television (IMRTS) have jointly petitioned and threatened to resign collectively if anyone of them were to be laid off with their participation in the strike being the reason.

It has already been three days since the start of the strike, and the government has not budged. However, the strikes and demonstrations have been forecasted to continue.

Police Reportedly Commit Dangerous Driving, Almost Colliding with a Private Car Carrying a Pregnant Woman

On the evening of September 1, 2020, a police vehicle suddenly cut across the double white lines and almost collided with a private car.

Apple Daily contacted the civilian on the private car, Mr. Kwok who was driving at that time and had his pregnant wife as a passenger. Mr. Kwok recounted the incident at 11:55pm on September 1.

When approaching the toll booth, a police car on the manual toll booth driving lane, suddenly cut across the double white lines, jamming into the driving lane right in front of Mr. Kwok's car. It was lucky that he managed to react quickly to avoid a collision, but his pregnant wife was already screaming in shock.

Mr. Kwok accused the police officer in the vehicle of having no sense of safety. He hopes that the Police Force will look into the incident and penalize the officer concerned.

However, the dash camera on Mr. Kwok's car was unable to capture a clear view of the police vehicle’s license plate. This makes it hard to lodge a formal complaint. Nevertheless, Mr. Kwok said, even if he could find out the license number, the Department of Justice might withdraw the charge against the police.
