Domestic Helpers Concern Groups Criticize Hong Kong Government for Neglecting Domestic Workers' Rights in Coronavirus Preventive Regulations
Since March 29 2020, the HKSAR government has prohibited gatherings of more than 4 people in public place and required a social distance of no less than 1.5 meter. The new rule will last for 14 days.
During the coronavirus outbreak, the footbridges in Mong Kok, where domestic helpers spent their day off, has become fairly empty. On 5 April 2020, concern groups including the Foreign Labour Centre, the Asian Migrants' Union and the chairman of Labour Party Kwok Wing-ken distributed hand sanitizers, masks, takeaway menus and Coronavirus prevention leaflets to the foreign helpers on the footbridge.
Eni Lestari, Chairperson of Asian Migrants' Union said, “It is the Government's responsibility to step up epidemic prevention publicity for foreign domestic helpers,” stressing that "protection of domestic helpers is also for the protection of employer's family".
Tong Hiu-yan, Director of Community Relations at the Foreign Labor Works Centre, said they have received many requests for help from domestic helpers. Most of the workers live with the employers and most of them do not have their own rooms. In other words, they would be asked to work and unable to take proper rest, when staying at thr employer's home on holidays.
Tong criticised the government's Labor Departments for not providing enough guidelines for both employers and domestic helpers. Besides, the Department had no practical measures to protect the rights and interests of the domestic helpers and was unwilling to handle requests of domestic helpers.

Chinese markets are still selling bats and slaughtering rabbits on blood-soaked floors as Beijing celebrates 'victory' over the coronavirus
"As the pandemic that began in Wuhan forced countries worldwide to go into lockdown ...thousands of customers flocked to a sprawling indoor market in Guilin, south-west China. Here cages of different species were piled on top of each other.
In another meat market in Dongguan, southern China...a medicine seller returning to business with a billboard advertising bats – thought to be the cause of the initial Wuhan outbreak – along with scorpions and other creatures.
The shocking scenes came as China finally lifted a weekslong nationwide lockdown and encouraged people to go back to normal daily life to boost the flagging economy. Official statistics indicated there were virtually no new infections.
The market in Guilin was packed with shoppers yesterday, with fresh dog and cat meat on offer..."

President of Public Doctors Association Calls for HongKongers to Defend Social Distancing as Their Rights to Gather and Protest
Part 1 ⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️
If citizens are getting relaxed about social distancing, the epidemic could dwell and last even longer, providing excuses for the government to extend the gathering ban.
Chapter 599 of the Prevention and Control of Diseases Ordinance confers on the Secretary for Food and Health, the Chief Executive and the Executive Council the power to prevent, cope with or mitigate the effects of public health emergencies. It also gives law enforcement officers a lot of power to enter private premises without a search warrant. If the government and the police are not using the powers of this Ordinance to control disease, but to control citizens’ freedom, such consequence could be detrimental, e.g. during the remembrance activities held on March 31, a female police officer stated her wish to charge 5 arrestees nearby Prince Edward subway station of breaching the gathering restriction, despite the fact that the five people were not even acquainted with each other.
At times, preventing the spread of disease and preventing exploitation of human rights could cause a conflict of values. The crux relies on how the government strikes a balance in implementing and enforcing restrictions and the duration of such restrictions. A civil society that honors self-discipline counts less on laws to resolve public health problems which avoids giving excuses to those in power.
Lastly, Ma calls for citizens to understand when to take to the streets and when to seek entertainment. With today's socio-political environment skewed towards the rule of man in absence of the rule of law, the remaining rights of the Hong Kong people could easily be striped away without a fight.

5 Unaccredited Labs Appointed for Hong Kong's COVID-19 Mandatory Testing
The Hong Kong Government has been requesting specific high-risk groups to undergo mandatory COVID-19 testing. An investigation by Apple Daily revealed that among 69 high-risk groups, 35 were tested by 5 appointed testing laboratories. However, none of these 5 providers were accredited under the Hong Kong Laboratory Accreditation Scheme (HOKLAS).
More alarming is the fact that some of these laboratories boasted of having “hospital-level laboratory equipment”. This is potentially misleading.
A staff member at one of the appointed laboratories acknowledged that the company is seeking ISO accreditation, although he insisted its operation is “meeting the requirements”.
A professional medical technologist pointed out that HOKLAS accreditation is a basic-level requirement of testing laboratories. He opined that it is absurd for the government to appoint a testing lab without HOKLAS certification to carry out COVID-19 mandatory tests for citizens of Hong Kong.
