Councilors Entered PolyU, Hoping to Talk to the Trapped Citizens
21:12 | 5 members-elect of District Council, including Roy Kwong, had already entered the campus area of PolyU to search for and communicate with the civilians inside. According to Ronald Tse Man-chak, member-elect of the Tsuen Wan District Council, the Police set a deadline of 12 am and requested the 5 councilors to leave the campus before the deadline. He believed that the Councilors would keep that promise.
Citizens were very worried that the government would find excuse to disqualify the newly elected district councilors because of this incident. Tse urged the citizens to express their opinion in a peaceful way, so that the five councilors could communicate with the students inside and keep all of them safe.

A Retributive Remark? Carrie Lam: "No universal suffrage until HK gets politics right"
On Nov 25, 2020, Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam delivered her delayed Policy Address, after having consulted with Beijing. In her introduction, Lam cited from the Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping.
Lam blatantly told Hongkongers that there would be "no universal suffrage until Hong Kong gets politics right".
Lam also said in the TV forum that the authorities "cannot accommodate" those who "think that Hong Kong can become independent and determine its own future".
The Chief asked Hong Kong youths to work in the Greater Bay Area. Although the government will subsidize part of the salary as an incentive for firms and employees, Hong Kong youths have political concern about going to China.
Meanwhile, Lam called attention to the 300,000 "mainland Hongkongers" who had obtained a residenship in Hong Kong and Macau last year. Lam said these people in Beijing, Chengdu, Shanghai and Guangzhou always asked her why they cannot vote in Hong Kong elections.
Lam also announced co-location arrangements, where Chinese jurisdiction would be applied in designated area within Hong Kong, to be carried out at the new Huanggang control point between Hong Kong and Shenzhen.
This year, the Legislative Council has become different without the pro-democracy camp. During the Policy Address, government officials--including Health Secretary Sophia Chan and Secretary for Constitutional and Mainland Affairs Erick Tsang--dozed off.
Among the pro-Beijing lawmakers, Tommy Cheung dozed off while Vincent Cheng kept twirling his pen. As former Secretary for Security and now pro-Beijing lawmaker Regina Ip checked out a photo of the sleeping Tsang on her WhatsApp, Christopher Cheung told his driver to collect hair crabs, with a worth of HK$9,600 worth, for him.

Hong Kong Police Deny Having Tortured Hospitalized Elderly Despite Captured by Surveillance Camera
Three Hong Kong police officers were arrested for torturing a 62-year-old man at North District Hospital in June 2019.
They were charged with "misconduct in public office" and "alternate assaults occasioning actual bodily harm". Two of them pled guilty and are remanded in custody. The third officer Lam Yik-sing pled not guilty to the charges and continued to represent himself in court.
Lam argued that what he saw in the ward on that day was different from the surveillance camera footage. Judge Chan Chung-hang questioned Lam if he was talking about a different angle and challenged him, “are you saying that the surveillance camera footage was fake?” Then, Lam clarified that he referred to a different angle.

State Owned China Daily Spends US$2M in 6 Months to Promote US-China Relations
