Hong Kong Police Announces the Upcoming Arrest of All Civilians Paying Tribute to Police Brutality Victims
On August 31, 2019, riot police barged into the subway trains in Prince Edward station and indiscrimately assaulted passengers and pro-democracy protesters on their way home.
Many civilians were gravely injured, and many others were seen went down on their knees, or begging the police to stop pepper-spraying and hitting them. Known as the 831 Prince Edward Incident, this was one of the most brutal incidents during the Anti-ELAB movement in Hong Kong.
Since then, members of the public voluntarily go to the #PrinceEdward train station on the last day of every month, bringing white flowers to pay tribute to the casualties and the victims of #PoliceBrutality in the pro-democracy movement.
On Nov 28, 2020, it was reported that Hong Kong police will arrest any civilians paying tribute outside the Prince Edward Station starting from Nov 30, 2020.
District Councilor Lam Siu-ben told reporters that since beginning of 2020, police officers often sweep away white flowers as soon as civilians put them down. Other police officers were seen closely monitoring onlookers from nearby Mong Kok Police Station. When a civilian put down a flower, they would immediately be threatened for committing littering.
Lam quoted a source saying the police will tighten enforcement from this month to disperse citizens gathering nearby Prince Edward Station and arrest those refuse to leave.
Lam said that from his observation, “police do not want to see white flowers being placed at Prince Edward station and around the area of Mong Kok Police Station".

#CarrieLam Claims #LiberalStudies "Problematic from Day One" and Blames #CriticalThinking
Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam claimed that Liberal Studies was "problematic from day one". Lam also blamed that "critical thinking" was being taken as "saying no to everything".*
[*Editor's note: Liberal studies was a compulsory subject introduced in Hong Kong since 2009 by the first Chief Executive Tung Chee-hwa whose adminstration included Carrie Lam as Secretary for Development.]
The authorities announced on Nov 25, 2020 a make-over of Liberal Studies in Hong Kong's schools. These include a new curriculum with an emphasis on China and the Basic Law; changing the grading system from a scoring system to a pass/fail assessment; and having the government vet all textbooks that would be used.
In a radio programme, Lam also blamed foreign media for "hurting the image of the SAR": "I don't think foreign media reports are objective and fair, especially those about Hong Kong."
Lam denied that the changes to Liberal Studies is a political move that overrides professionalism. She insisted that the subject has "always been causing controversies" in the past 10 years.

Hong Kong leader says she has “piles of cash at home”, no bank account, due to U.S. sanctions
Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam told HKIBC, an English-language news channel based in Hong Kong, “I have piles of cash at home, the government is paying me cash for salary because I don’t have a bank account.”
She is unable to open account after being targeted by U.S. sanctions. The Treasury Department said the sanctions were a respond to “draconian” national security legislation imposed in Hong Kong.
Some activists noted that it appeared to suggest that even Chinese banks were complying with American financial restrictions.
Lam is paid around 5.21 million Hong Kong dollars, roughly $672,000, a year, making her among the highest paid public officials in the world.

Now it’s India: China Blames India For Origin Of COVID-19
Chinese researchers claimed in November 2020 that their research suggested that the “least mutated strain” originated in India or a surrounding country. China has been repeated source of misinformation surrounding the coronavirus and Beijing has previously baselessly accused the United State and Italy for releasing the coronavirus.
The new research contradicts reporting that the virus originated in Wuhan and spread to the rest of the world as the Chinese government suppressed key details about the outbreak.
The paper has already received heavy criticisms from experts in virus research. David Robertson, a professor at the University of Glasgow’s Center for Virus Research, called the Chinese paper “very flawed”, according to the Daily Mail.

Chinese Research says India and Bangladesh is the Virus Origin, WHO: "Highly Speculative"

Chinese Research says India and Bangladesh is the Virus Origin, WHO: "Highly Speculative"
Wuhan Virus Pandemic broke out in Wuhan last year in late December. The total number of COVID-19 confirmed cases is approaching 62 million across the world so far.
China has been claiming in recent month that the source of the pandemic may be from the United States, France or even Italy, denying the allegation of 'Wuhan Virus originates in China'. Shanghai Institutes for Biological Sciences publishes a report through Social Science Research Network (SSRN), indicating that the Wuhan Virus "probably" comes from India and Bangladesh, transmitted from monkeys to human, and discovered in Wuhan after half a year. However, the report has not undergone any peer review and, therefore, cannot be considered as a rigorous academic finding.
Mike Ryan, an Epidemiologists at the WHO, said on 27 November, 2020 that it is "highly speculative" to say the coronavirus not emerged from China. Ryan said at a video meeting in Geneva, "From a public health perspective, it is clear that the Epidemiology investigation should begin at where the human cases first emerged, followed by understanding the cases outbreak and the outbreak process." He added that the WHO had always intended to send researchers to the Wuhan food market to probe the virus origins further.
However, until now, no experts from WHO has been to Wuhan for on-site research. During the mission in July, experts only stayed in Beijing for three weeks. While being asked if any experts would go to Wuhan for the investigation, Director-General of WHO, Tedros, finally confirmed the visit, which would be the first time since the pandemics have started for a year.

Kiwi CHOW, Director of <Revolution of Our Times>: I would sacrifice myself for justice, movie is only a path
By Translated by Guardians of Hong Kong December 28, 2021 • 30 December 2021
At the age of 18, when he already abandoned school life for three years, Chow asked himself how much he would sacrifice for movies. With weak English and poor HKCEE (HK Certificate of Education Examination) results, he was standing at a crossroad in his life. The question was “Should I return to school and try to get into the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts (HKAPA) and learn how to make movies (which I love so much)? Or should I abandon this path?”. “It seemed that I must do something most painful (take examinations) before something I will…

Video: Chinese Students Gathered to Mourn Urumqi Fire Victims and Questions Lockdown Policy
On the night of 24 November, a fire broke out in a high-rise residential building in Urumqi, China. The fire killed at least 20 people, including several children, the youngest of whom was just three years old.
Online footage of the rescue effort shows workers in white protective clothing breaking down fences and barricades that had been erected around the building due to China's zero-Covid lockdown policy. Many Chinese on social media are questioning whether the lockdown blockade was hindering rescue.
The incident led to an outbreak of mourning and protest activities in many parts of China. At Nanguang College of the Communication University of China, students held up plain A4 paper sheets. They sparked a "white paper revolution" to mourn the fire victims in Urumqi. On 26 November, another online clip showed campus students gathering in mourning, lighting up the night with their mobile phones and chanting "Long live the people, may the dead rest in peace."

Chinese Students in Hong Kong Mourns Urumqi Fire Victims, Protests Covid Lockdowns
In the evening of Nov 28, students from Mainland China gathered in Central to mourn the victims of the tragic fire in #Urumqi last week. Dozens of Mandarin-speaking young people joined them, bringing flowers, candles, and blank sheets of A4 paper.
Some had handwritten messages on their A4 paper: "R.I.P. Urumqi"; "For Urumqi victims and all zero-Covid policy victims"; "The bell tolls for thee"; "Not anti-CCP, only anti-lockdown"; "reform, freedom, human rights"; "Let all who have courage speak up".
Police arrived to record the identities of attendees, and spoke on loudspeakers to remind citizens not to violate the anti-gathering restrictions. At its peak, the mourning crowd grew to over 100 people, gathering in Theatre Lane in the center of Hong Kong's business district. Speaking to reporters, many mourners expressed their discontent with the anti-pandemic measures in their homeland of China, saying that the lockdown barricades hindered the rescue efforts and contributed to the tragedy.
