966 Time Traveller
Photo album: https://t.me/guardiansofhongkong/18462
As a storyteller that tells tales with music, the shop owner travelled around Europe as a musician in his early years. He strolled down streets and lanes for hidden gems in small shops and markets and eventually built a collection of handicrafts, vintage clothes and watches from different countries. After returning to Hong Kong, he opened this general store to house all these local treasures from different places.
It is called a general store because it is home for a wide variety of items, each with its own history. Listening to the shop owner’s telling of their stories is like witnessing how he encountered these old friends of his one by one. He is particularly fond of his Japanese watches and vintage clothes which he never gets tired of talking about.
966 Time Traveller also sells campaigning items to support the movement. The most spectacular one must be the 18-district Lipig lightbox with adjustable brightness. It also acts as a music box that plays 'Glory to Hong Kong'. Since it is entirely hand-made, place your order if you are interested.
The shop owner has much faith in the yellow economic circle as it brings together like-minded customers and changes their old shopping habits. On top of that yellow businesses are supporting each other, and this is most evident for catering businesses. The shop owner hopes that in the future similar strong bonding can also take shape among businesses in other industries.

作為一個用音樂說故事的人，店主早年在歐洲各地從事音樂演奏，同時也喜愛走訪橫街窄巷找尋不同小店和市集，從不同國家搜尋各具特色的工藝品、古著和古董手錶，當完成旅程回到香港後，便開了這樣的一間有著各種當地文化的雜物店。
說是雜物店的原因，是因為它的而且確包含著各式各樣的貨品，每件的貨品也可以有著自己的來歷，聽著店主如數家珍似的訴說背後的故事，就像在為你介紹和朋友認識的經過一樣，特別是那些店主特別鍾情的日本手錶和古著，他都會再三為我們逐一介紹。
店舖內也有提供文宣產品的寄賣服務，其中最有特色的一定是18區連豬燈箱，除了能遙控調節光暗外，還能夠播放「願榮光歸香港」的音樂，因為是全人手製作的關係，所以如果有興趣的朋友是需要訂購的。
對於黃色經濟圈，店主相信有著它獨有的影響，因為市民在購買的時候會作出選擇，他們會寧願光顧一些有著相同理念的店鋪，改變一直而來的消費習慣，而不同黃店之間也會互相幫助，這樣的情況在餐廳行業更為明顯，希望將來在其他行業間也會有著一樣的成果。

Police expand on 'bomb plots', silent on violence
Police on March 9, Monday gathered the media to again go over what they said was the seizure of tonnes of chemicals destined to be used to make bombs, but refused to answer questions about officers' behaviour at protests on Sunday.
At a press conference reminiscent of the force's daily briefings during the height of the anti-government protests, Cable TV complained that a riot officer had injured one of their reporters by knocking her to the ground with his shield in Tseung Kwan O.
The TV journalist at the briefing asked whether the force would follow up on the incident, while RTHK also asked about the police's treatment of the media on Sunday, with some reporters pepper-sprayed and others held for searches while trying to work.
But the senior officers said they were not there to discuss such issues and the media could seek a response later from the force's public relations bureau.
Instead, the police turned their attention back onto what they had already described on Sunday as a "tragedy averted".
The force made 17 arrests over the weekend in a series of raids, and said they had seized "significant quantities of homemade explosives ready to be used", as well as some 2,500 kilogrammes of chemicals "ready to be manufactured into yet more homemade explosives".
Officers conceded that these chemicals could have been destined for uses other than terrorism, but reiterated that they believed the materials were for "bomb plots".
The police said they will be conducting counter-terrorism drills with other government departments because "local terrorism" is "gaining steam".
Assistant police commissioner Yuen Yuk-kin said the force will speak to other officials to see if there is a need to increase Hong Kong's terrorism threat level, which is now at moderate.
"We will closely monitor the terrorism threat facing Hong Kong and continue our intelligence gathering," he said.
Hong Kong has seen a number of bomb hoaxes in the past two months, as well as a real – albeit minor – blast that shattered a hospital toilet, an "unexploded device" in Shenzhen Bay, and a "partially detonated" device on an MTR train that caused no damage.
