Chinese Netizens Impersonate Taiwanese to Apologize to the WHO
The screenshot shows that a Twitter user who introduced herself as "a girl from China" in her profile, represented Taiwanese to apologize to the WHO.
The WHO chief has recently offended Taiwan after he accused Taiwanese of lodging "racist critique" to him. Although WHO chief has yet disclosed any evidence, it has been reported that China's Internet army was mobilized to claim themselves "Taiwanese" and make apology to the WHO in the name of "Taiwan".

Chinese manufacturer threatened to sell fake infrared thermometers to harm the Americans but later apologised for it's āpatriotic actā
(30 Mar) The quality of the Chinese made medical supplies are in great doubt. Days ago, some Chinese manufacturers claimed to manufacture fake infrared thermometers and sell them to the United States, so the Americans cannot test their temperate accurately. The manufacturer said that they did it out of āpatriotismā. Researchers found that in the last few months, the Chinese government has stirred up many public opinions, and nationalism has become part of the preventive measures. Some mainland Chinese residents said that many businessmen cashed in on the pandemic and made huge amount of money during the suffering of the nation. They took advantage of the epidemic, and that many medical supplies are fake with bad qualities.
//Many countries have found quality issues in the medical supplies from China.
//Through shifting the blame or speaking about nationalism, it resolves some pressure for the authority. ā
I believe the authority pushes theses nationalistic thoughts among citizens, and it actually boosted the worldās distrust and suspicion on China. The āmade in Chinaā tag, the sincerity of donating face masks, etc, all these diplomatic moves have casted doubts on China's purposes.
//there are many other medical supplies without any certifications.

(9 Apr) A news article forwarded by a friend (https://www.cnx-software.com/2020/04/07/beware-of-defective-wrongly-manufactured-ir-thermometers/) said that people from Thailand found a faulty IR thermometer that could read ~36Ā°C even when the sensor is removed. I searched for the brand name āHEACOā from the video, and found that HKTV used to sell other thermometers of the same brand, but they are now off the shelves. This thermometer ācaseā seemed to be manufactured in different factories, and there are at least three brands with the same ācaseā on HKTVās website.
There isnāt much information on the company HEACO, but I found a Facebook page with the same logo. It appears to be a Russian company. Although I donāt have any proof that the HEACO thermometer in the video is a fake, nor do I know if HEACO sells counterfeit products, it is worth pursuing. Why are there three companies using the same case for thermometers? Does the thermometer work normally under standard conditions?
So I searched for G SIM STORE, the shop that sells other HEACO thermometers on HKTV, and found that it is related to a Youtube channel (both profile pictures are the letter G made from dots). The channelās videos are all on sim card sales, and there is a web link to HKTV in the introduction. It seems like medical products are not the primary products of this company.
Other than that, there are two other companies on HKTV that sell thermometers of the same ācaseā. I also searched for these companiesā brand and shop name. One of the shops is called āYing Kang Medicineā. According to Facebook, their shop is in Tsuen Wan, and the brand of the thermometers they sell is called āBo Huiā. However, I couldnāt find any information about the brand on Google. Thatās all Iāve found.
The other shop is called āXCSourceā, and I found out that it is a foreign company with an official website. However, thermometer is not one of the products on their official website. I searched for the companyās name and the word āthermometerā as keywords on Amazon, and there were no related products. At this point, I suspect that this companyās trademark was stolen and used to sell thermometers of unknown sources on HKTV.
Details could be found on the photo attached.
Oh, wasnāt there a Chinese businessman who talked about exporting fake thermometers so America would have more infected cases?

Poor quality masks from Mainland China flood Hong Kong as overseas manufactured goods. Mainland China manufacturer: You can print anything on the box
(10 Apr) Many countries banned the export of masks last month. The Korean KF-94 and made-in-Japan masks Hongkongers have been fighting for are becoming scarce. On the contrary, since the export of masks resumed in Mainland China in the same month, Hong Kong local media Apple Daily inspected pharmacies in different districts and found large number of masks claiming to be imported from America, Japan and Indonesia etc. The supply of these masks appeared to be stable. However, the origin labels on these masks were unclear, and the pharmacy staffs revealed that they were all made in China. The journalist randomly selected 5 boxes at the pharmacy, and after testing, 4 boxes were found to have varying qualities and are unsuitable for use in crowded space and public transport. An agent admitted that the boxes were deliberately printed with Japanese to ālet people have the misconception (that they are made in Japan)ā, but in fact, the masks were collected from China through distributors.
China is the āglobal mask factoryā, and since COVID-19 hits Europe and America last month, there has been a surge in the number of mask factories in Mainland China. According to statistics from the Mainland China, as of 22 March, there are about 52,000 mask factories nationwide, which recorded a sharp increase of 6,000 compared to February, and a 16-fold increase over the same period last year, of which over 17,000 have import and export businesses and were competing to export masks for profit. However, the mask qualities have been repeatedly criticized by the international communities for being substandard and useless in combating the virus. The Netherlands and Australia have returned 600,000 and 800,000 masks from China respectively. The situation raises concerns on the quality of masks made in China.

Smearing ad on Sing Tao Daily discovered to may have fake signatures
Last September, a number of people in the construction, surveying and engineering industry issued a joint statement in pro-Beijing Sing Tao Daily, accusing the pro-democracy protests of "seriously disrupting the order of Hong Kong", and comdeming the young people of defying the rule of law.
The Architects Registration Authority sent a letter to its members on May 19, claiming that 138 'architects' who backed the advertisement with their signatures did not have their identifications registered in the official list at, violating section 31 of the Architect Registration Ordinance.
Apple Daily wrote to Sing Tao Daily, requesting information on the originator of the advertisement, but did not receive any response. The bureau reached the police via e-mail and electronic report room on 8 and 13 May. Apple Daily is in the process of requesting the police for a follow-up.

Summon the dead to identify protester's mother
(27 Jun) At the end of September last year, a naked corpse of a 15-year old female were awkwardly floating in the ocean. The Hong Kong police declared no foul play suspected and the body was cremated and left no remnants to investigate. The Hong Kong Coroner's Court recently did a pre-inquest review on the case.
The deceased was Chan Yin-lam, a competitive swimmer. Whether it was a "suicide" or if she "was suicided" remains an issue rife with suspicions and doubts. Someone's daughter had gone missing. Tsz-ming, one of the people in her search team, learned that the news of her death came out during the hustle and bustle. Overnight, he lost contact with both Chan's mother and her maternal uncle. The two family members vanished without a trace...
Chan had participated in anti-extradition law amendment bill (anti-ELAB) activities many times. A lovely young girl was inexplicably reduced to ash. Afterwards, many young people from the protests disappeared, some suspect they were extradited to mainland China, killed or suicided. They became trapeze artists (that shed no blood when landing) and floating corpses in the ocean. The atrocities of public security and evil cops were covered up and indulged, so will they simply remain unpunished? To appease the mob, TVB news director set out to interview Chan's mother; her blurred out face could not have been any faker. Later, some scoundrel of [Confucian] propriety, righteousness, integrity and politics* wrote an open letter "on behalf of" Chan's mother. It came with no photo, no signature and no authorisation; no one in Hong Kong believed it. For the entirety of the court date, police officers surrounded and escorted her... Netizens examined old photos of Chan's mother, suspected photos of the deceased and the more recent images from her [mother's] court appearance. They made comparisons of her [Chan's] brow ridges, the birthmark on her neck, the part in her hair and the puffiness in her eyes. This "grand charade" could not end even if it wanted to. So this place does not have 300 taels?+ Who knows what is true or false? Display ID? Compare names? DNA testing? Which department is trustworthy?
This is why the best way to seek redress is by summoning the dead in a public trial just like the Hello Kitty murder case++ when the courtroom's halogen lights kept flashing and the victim's half-cooked head aired her own grievances. Only if [Chan's] departed soul cries out "Mom!" in the courtroom will we believe it.
Editor's Note:
* ē¦®ē¾©å»ęæ is a play on words of the proper phrase, ē¦®ē¾©å»ę„, meaning propriety, righteousness, integrity and honour. This article replaced honour (ę„) with politics (ęæ).
+ This place does not have 300 taels is a Chinese idiom akin to one of Aesop's Fables. It refers to someone who believes that they are clever, but their attempt to cover something up only makes the situation more obvious.
++ The Hello Kitty murder case refers to the kidnapping, torture and death of night club hostess in 1999. The convicts boiled her head to hide evidence of the crime.

#LeaveHomeSafe App Download Rate Surges; Top Downloads in Pacific and Caribbean Islands Causes Suspicion on Possible Scam Downloads
The Hong Kong government announced a more relaxed social distance measure in Hong Kong on February 18, 2021 and allowed dinner dine-in until 10pm where 4 customers can share a table.
However, for those dining-in, there is a requirement to scan a QR code with the government's āLeaveHomeSafeā app which authorities use for contact tracing or to provide personal information to the restaurant.
Rhe app has triggered worries over surveillance and privacy in the city. According to the government, there is, however, a surge in the number of downloads for the āLeaveHomeSafeā app.
The government reported an "overwhelming response" from the public, with over 2.3 million downloads. But data from an app analysis website shows that the Android app has the most downloads in the Health category in many countries outside of Hong Kong and Macau.
Most of which are from the Pacific and Caribbean island countries. This raises some suspicion and the situation suggests that some might have turned to individual companies for help in ātampering with the numbersā, or āpaid listing boostā which are prevalent in China, to create the illusion of high download rates.
As for App Store Optimization (#ASO) services, netizen and travel writer Pazu Kong (čÆä¼Æä¼Æ) mentioned that in China that āit only takes a couple of cents for a machine to do this, and a few bucks for a person. One person can operate more than 100 SIM cards and more than 100 smartphones to artificially build up junk download rates to boost their rankings, increase visitation volume, and give 5-star ratings. Usually, if it was done by humans, it will be less likely to be noticed.ā
One of the ASO companies quoted the price stating that purchasing 500 downloads from Google Play cost just a bit over HK$100.

Army of fake fans boosts Chinaās messaging on Twitter
Chinaās ruling Communist Party has opened a new front in its long, ambitious war to shape global public opinion: Western social media.
Liu Xiaoming, who recently stepped down as Chinaās ambassador to the United Kingdom, is one of the partyās most successful foot soldiers on this evolving online battlefield. He joined Twitter in October 2019, as scores of Chinese diplomats surged onto Twitter and Facebook, which are both banned in China.
Since then, Liu has deftly elevated his public profile, gaining a following of more than 119,000 as he transformed himself into an exemplar of Chinaās new sharp-edged āwolf warriorā diplomacy, a term borrowed from the title of a top-grossing Chinese action movie.
