Doxxed Hong Kong Reporters Suspect China Travel Agency Has Leaked Information

Since the anti-ELAB protests began, reporters' personal data have been put online many times in doxxing attempts. Recently, a website circulated a large number of "Apple Daily" employees' photos and information.

Those who were doxxed pointed out that their photos being disclosed were the one they used for the Mainland Travel Permit for Hong Kong and Macao Residents. It is suspected that the information was leaked by the China Travel Agency that handled the documents.

The Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data responded to inquiries, stating that it has no statutory authority to force extraterritorial organizations to provide website operator information, and the Office has not responded positively to whether it will investigate China Travel Agency.

Reflection of a Hongkonger Who Organized a Rally on #Aug4 in 2019

//- Countless meetings
- The controversy about the doubling of the rally
- The Leisure and Cultural Services Department refused to lend venues as the assembly point
- “Blown fuses” after the rally in Shatin
- Our volunteers crunching to design publicity posters
- Having 1-2 hours of sleep before going to work
- Replying Telegram messages non-stop
- Changing locations everyday to collect supply to avoid dogs that unreasonably confiscate whatever they see

All vivid memories:
We would be satisfied if even only 20,000 to 30,000 people joined us.
In the end, our Tseung Kwan O fielded 150,000 people.

I remember one time when I was distributing flyers,
an elderly woman told us to stay safe with tears on her face.

A man took our flyer, much to the protest of his wife, and then he whispered to us “Add Oil”

Hongkongers' ability to move people is surely world class.

HK Government Appoint Chinese Companies without License to Handle COVID19 Testing in HK


The Hong Kong government purchased services from three private laboratory organizations to provide virus testing for the local population without a tender. The government claimed that only these three laboratories in the market can provide data in a short period of time and Nucleic acid testing services in the scale of thousands.

Ming Pao found that one of the companies, China Inspection Co., Ltd. ("China Inspection") and its testing center, China Dragon Inspection and Certification (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd. ("China Dragon"), mainly provide services such as product or automobile inspection and certification in Hong Kong and does not operate in the medical laboratory business. Its laboratory has not been approved by the government medical laboratory.

Questioned by Ming Pao, the government revealed that the relevant testing services are provided by China Dragon partnering with local laboratories that meet the requirements, but declined to disclose details such as procurement fees.

Civic Party Legislative Councillor Kwok Ka-ki said that Hong Kong has specific regulations on medical testing. If a qualified medical laboratory is not available, it should not be allowed to provide high-risk medical testing. He said that the government has appointed CCIC and other companies as testing contractors without bidding, and now CCIC suspects that it will "outsource" the testing services, and questioned why it was looking for CCIC instead of directly contacting the relevant local laboratory to provide services.

Many had questioned the validity of these designated companies and how come other companies can only cooperate with these designated companies. The government was condemned for exploiting local companies through intermediate "contractors".

Suspected for Receiving $3M from CCP, University of Pennsylvania Failed to Explain the Donor's background

The University of Pennsylvania, a member of the Ivy League, was accused that a donation from an unknown party of US$3M, may include the Chinese Communist Government. Washington Free Beacon, a political news website by the conservatives, reported on 3rd August "The amount of donation was from a mysterious shell corporation in Hong Kong which its boss was involved in a government official corruption case in Shanghai, resulting in resignation. Besides, he has a close relationship with the Chinese Communist Party. The donation implies that China is paying an effort in interfering with the Academies in the US."

In the past few years, the University of Pennsylvania received a large number of foreign funds, which the majority was from China. From March 2017 to the end of last year (2019), the University received presents and contracts of US$61M involved. Among the large amount, cash donation owned a significant portion of US$19M.
