Pro-Beijing “disabled” elderly seen walking and arguing with protestors in Tuen Mun Park

Noise pollution and even risque act regarding mainland “Dama" (middle-aged women) singers performing in Tuen Mun Park has continued since the return of these “singers” on Feb 22. A fierce quarrel broke out while the residents attempted to drive them out. During the quarrel, an elderly in an electrical wheelchair played pro-CCP songs in order to drown out the criticism from the residents, he was also seen being physically aggressive towards the reporters.

During the conflict, the elderly, who was sitting in the wheelchair, suddenly stood up and told the reporters “I have never said that I was crippled”. He then approached the citizens and continued to quarrel with them. Reporters have observed that there was a rear-view mirror and a horn on the wheelchair and thus deduced that it is most likely not a necessity for the elderly.

Hong Kong Authorities Try to Stop Double Ten Celebration for Taiwan in Hong Kong By All Means

October 10, also known as the "double ten day", is Taiwan's national day. In Hong Kong, pro-Taiwan supporters including the Kuomingtang (#KMT) supporters often gather and celebrate by raising Taiwan's 'Blue Sky, White Sun' flag on the New Year's Day and Oct 10.

The Red House (Hung Lau) located in Tuen Mun Park used to be their popular gathering spot to observe the flag raising ceremony, where the anthem of the Republic of China (#ROC) is played. The house is a historical site in Hong Kong, for its relation to the 1911 Xinhai Revolution, which brought the imperial system to an end and the Republican Government to form in China. Oct 10, 1911 was the day where the Wuchang Uprising, one important operation of the revolution, began. This house in Hong Kong used to be a base for revolutionary activities against the Qing imperial court in the early 20th Century.

On Oct 10, 2020, not many pro-Taiwan supporters had shown up, as they usually did in any other years, due to the fear over the infringement of the National Security Law in Hong Kong.

Nevertheless, over 50 police were deployed in Tuen Mun Park. Tens of security guards, who claimed to be sent by the 'owner of the Red Mansion', barred civilians from approaching the site. According to Apple Daily, the park, which is managed by the government's Leisure and Cultural Services Department (#LCSD), has also planted tall bushes with thorns near the Red House.
