Around Wellington

We have chosen a restaurant which mainly offers take-away in Central, and you can find a variety of dishes here. Many chain stores struggle to continue their operation under the coronavirus containment measures, but, this, instead, makes Hong Kongers to notice other small restaurants that used to be ignored. The exterior of those restaurants may not be splendid and they may not have many seats. However, you can feel the effort they paid and the friendliness of waiters.
The exterior of Around Wellington is not big, but is covered almost every inch by various pro-democracy flyers and posters. There are only 2-3 small tables inside the restaurant. During lunch time, there is always a long queue outside. People standing outside will already be attracted by all kinds of aromas of food, the rich and mellow flavour of Drunken Chicken with Shaoxing Wine Udon, as well as the meaty flavour of Wagyu Cheeseburger. Kourayaki of the restaurant has a lot of crab roe and meat, it tastes even better if you mix the rice with crab paste.
Central is a place that has experienced countless “Lunch With You” rallies. It is also the place that office workers in suits experienced tear gas for the first time. Nowadays, police brutality is rampant in Hong Kong. The reasons that make Hong Kong still standing up in Asia are not only the financial benefits of the Hang Seng Index that people concern about, but also, more importantly, the social value which is our conscience.

Around Wellington
在各式各樣菜色林立的中環，我們選擇了一間主力做外賣的餐廳，抗疫措施下的連鎖店難以為繼，反而更令香港人留意了平日忽略了的小店，他們或許沒有很大的門面，也不會有很多座位可以選擇，但卻更顯得小店所付出的心思，也感受到待應的一份親切對待。
Around Wellington的店門不算大，但卻差不多被不同的文宣完全覆蓋著，內裡只放著2-3個小枱，午飯時總是排著長長的人龍，但站在門外已經會被各種的香味吸引，花雕醉雞烏冬的醇香及和牛芝士漢堡的肉香隨風飄來，甲羅燒有著滿滿的蟹子和蟹肉，和混著蟹膏的白飯吃起來更是滋味。
中環這片土地，經歷過無數次和你Lunch的集會，更有著穿著西裝的中環上班族，首次體驗到催淚彈是甚麼味道的事蹟，在現今當下警暴橫行的香港，印證我們能在亞洲屹立不倒的原因，除了是只關心恆指上落的金錢利益外，更重要是對著社會有一份良心的觀值觀。

#WHO Chief accuses #Taiwan of orchestrating racist attack
The World Health Organization chief Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus condemned the politicisation of Covid-19, claiming he has received death threats and racist insults during the coronavirus pandemic.
He pointed fingers at Taiwan for spearheading the insults at him. “Three months ago, this attack came from Taiwan.” “And Taiwan, the Foreign Ministry know the campaign.” “They didn’t disassociate themselves and even started criticizing me in the middle of all that insult and slur.”
Taiwan dismissed Tedros’ comments as “baseless”. Taiwan’s President Tsai Ing-wen invited Tedros to visit Taiwan and stressed that “Taiwan has always opposed all forms of discrimination.” The Ministry of Foreign Affairs demands Tedros to correct his claims and apologize to the people of Taiwan.
China's foreign ministry commented that it hopes Taiwan "will not politicize the pandemic or engage in any political maneuvering.”

Hong Kong Government: Episode Has Violated the "One China" Principle;
RTHK Reporter: Episode Only Discusses Global Anti-pandemic Effort
Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development Edward Yau Tang-wah reiterated after attending a special meeting of the Finance Committee that The Pulse, an news programme produced by the public broadcaster RTHK, violated the "One China" principle, although the violation did not stem from individual interviews or angles.
In response to Yau's ambivalent accusation, Yvonne Tong, a producer and the host of the said programme in RTHK, stated on Twitter that The Pulse had only focused on the global anti-pandemic effort during said episode. Yau's comment caused her to wonder how the episode could violate the "One China" principle, calling into question whether or not Yau have seen the episode.

WHO should be renamed to CHO, saids the deputy prime minister of Japan
(2 Apr) The deputy prime minister of Japan, Taro Aso, slammed the World Health Organization(WHO), saying it should be called the China Health Organization (CHO) for its soft stance towards the communist China amid the outbreak of the coronavirus.
He emphazied that if the WHO had not insisted to the world that China had no epidemic, then everybody would have taken precautions.
Aso also critized that being as a global organisation, the WHO did not even include Taiwan. And precisely because Taiwan is not a member of the WHO, it becomes a world leader in fighting the epidemic.

Top Japanese Official: Rename W.H.O. To ‘China Health Organization,’ Use ‘Wuhan Virus’
#Rumours
Apologize for saying the term “Wuhan Pneumonia”
[fwd] A Chinese overseas student in New Zealand was slammed by purely mentioning the term “Wuhan pneumonia” in a WeChat group. Friends argued that Wuhan sacrificed a lot… But isn’t the virus originated in Wuhan? Why must he apologise?

Leo:
At the same time, please don’t forget the Americans, Italians, Spanish, and all other foreigners who died from Wuhan pneumonia

Are you still having to call it Wuhan pneumonia?

Gumgum:
I even thought for a moment whether you were being sarcastic or not
Tracy:
Leo, what do you mean by everyone who died from Wuhan pneumonia? Are you being ambiguous? There is an official name for it, what’s wrong with you? You’re poisoned
Wilson:
Leo, please apologise
Chuanwei:
“Leo: COVID 19 then” This sounds quite insincere. Please explain.
Alex:
As someone from Wuhan, things have been miserable in Wuhan this year. The words ‘Wuhan pneumonia’ sound especially harsh to me
Aoda:
Wuhan really sacrificed a lot
Frankie:
How long has be been out of touch with the society?
Tracy:
Alex, same
Chunqiu:
Ya, the news have been saying covid 19 everyday. How can those words still come out of your brain
Wilson:
You got to be responsible for what you said. If you don’t apologise, everyone will be watching you
Tracy:
I’m from Wuhan as well, but not because I need to voice out for Wuhan. This incident is like how Trump said ‘Chinese Virus’, no one can tolerate that. The virus has a name, covid 19, what’s your purpose for calling it Wuhan pneumonia?
Frankie:
+1 Maybe to him, the air’s fresher and the moon’s brighter abroad
Frankie:
Just one sentence, then… that’s brilliant
Wilson:
If he doesn’t apologise today, no one is allowed to change the subject
Kaixu:
Calm down, come out and explain. The 490 of us should all tag him.
Frankie:
Just kick him out
Elva:
For people who say ‘Wuhan pneumonia’ and ‘Chinese virus’, I’m curious about what they’re thinking, especially when they’re Chinese

60% of Mask Factories in China Never Sterilized
Since the Wuhan pneumonia outbreak, the Chinese Communist Party government has been encouraging Chinese companies to produce masks. Industries such as textile, retail and food have answered to the call by either buying or expanding their production line of facemask.
Chinese media points out that during the lockdown of Wuhan between 23 Jan and 11 Mar, 5489 mask factories have been set up in China. According to the Chinese government in early March, China is producing over one hundred million masks per day.
However, mask retailers revealed that the mask factories are poorly managed and monitored: 60% of these factories do not undergo sterilization. Most factories started to run as soon as the mask machines arrived, even when the working environment was dusty. Masks were manufactured by workers without gloves nor masks. The certificates for factory registration can be bought and shared between factories.

Slip of the Tongue from P.K. Tang Shocks Legislative Councillors

Later, he claimed that what he had said was a slip of the tongue and he clarified that the police “ would definitely enforce the law in a just and unbiased manner”.

Prosecutor with Outspoken Pro-Beijing Stance Allegedly Imposes Bias Against Pro-democracy Faction
Vivien Chan, the prosecutor who worked on the case pro-democracy lawmaker Au Nok-hin, was found disseminating strong worded criticisms on Facebook. She allegedly attacked local judges for 'siding' with protesters whom she called “yellow corpse”, “cockroaches” and “bastards”.
From the pro-Beijing news reports and videos she shares, her political stance concerning the anti-extradition law protests was clear. Chan expressed gratitude to the Police in suppressing pro-democracy protests, “rioters are morons disrupting social order even during epidemic outbreak. Arrest them all!”
In a post issued on Oct 16, 2019, Chan said, “Rioters! Bar Association and judges who supported them are all scumbags!” After a 22-year-old man charged with assaulting police was granted bail, Chan wrote “The bias and unfairness of numerous judges have already severely damaged Hong Kong’s rule of law, safety and freedom.”
In another Facebook post in October 2019, Chan wrote: “Talking about tolerating violence, Hong Kong judges are second to none. Thank you judges for granting the chaos in Hong Kong today".
Sham Shui Po Pro-democracy District councillor Ramon Yuen Hoi-man said Chan’s strong political stance made her unfit to be a prosecuting counsel. “The perception seems that Chan just wanted to prosecute Au at all costs.”
He also alleged that Chan had violated the Bar’s Code of Conduct with her remarks against judges, which is “likely to bring the profession of barrister into disrepute or diminish public confidence in the profession of barrister”.
The Bar Association gave no further moments but revealed that it was considering the complaints: “According to the Association’s policy, no comment will be made when the investigation is ongoing.”
Vivien Chan declined interview requests and refused to respond to further inquiries.
