HK Authorities Refuses to Let Non-resident Leave the Lockdown Site: "You Hong Kong Citizens are Unreasonable!"

A woman who worked in Shum Shui Po expressed her utmost frustration and disappointment towards the Hong Kong government's organization at the lockdown zone.

On the evening of Feb 2, 2021, the woman found herself suddenly in the "restricted area" after the government ambushed 17 buildings in Shum Shui Po for a mandatory lockdown.

She spent hours talking to different officers from the disciplinary force to the Home Affairs Bureau (#HAB), hoping to leave the site after being tested negative. After all, she is not a resident of the area and has nowhere to stay until the end of the government's operation at 7am the next day. Worse still, she has 2 hamsters to feed at home.

The woman recounted the mistreatment by the officers on site and the ridiculous conversations she had with different government officials:

One staff from HAB claimed that she can call the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (#SPCA) and ask them to "go to her place and feed her pet".

Moreover, a customs officer claimed that she can sue him if anything happened to her hamsters. While almost all government's staff she talked to refused to show their pass and give their name, a female staff from the HAB surnamed Cheng proclaimed as the head of the Bureau. In reality, the Secretary for Home Affairs is Casper Tsui Ying-wei.

At some point, the government staff yelled back at the woman, "you Hong Kong citizens are unreasonable!". The woman said to the press, "Who is the unreasonable one here? It is the Hong Kong government!"
