University student Mr. Chow who was severely injured during police mass arrest in Tseung Kwan O in November 4 Night is still in critical condition.
Dr.Wong, a retired brain surgeon told Apple Daily that the time for Chow to receive first aid treatment at the scene was critical. As he suffered from brain hemorrhage, the sooner the blood clot can be removed, the less pressure would have been imposed on his brainstem.
Despite his worsening condition, Apple Daily reporter described that Chow shows a strong will to live.
Some Tseung Kwan O residents claimed that the police had obstructed the paramedics from the Fire Services Department and voluntary first aiders from rescuing Chow promptly at the scene.

Witness Claimed Ambulance Obstructed and Treatment Delayed
[Editor's note: UST student Chow is severely injured after falling in a carpark during police mass arrest operation in the night of Nov 4. Suspicions are raised towards the case. Read the full story: https://t.me/guardiansofhongkong/9903]
This is a witness account of an onlooker called Ricky who was among the first to discover the 22-year-old boy:
Ricky, a Tseung Kwan O resident, was one of the first persons who discovered student Chow Tsz-Lok lying unconscious in the parking lot when he and another middle-aged man were heading to the second floor of the car park to flee tear gas. It was around 1am when they heard a black-clad citizen shouting “FA (first-aider) please”. They walked over and saw Chow lying face down on the ground covered in a large pool of blood. Chow was immediately assessed by three unarmed firemen who happened to be at the scene later.
According to Ricky, while there were no apparent injuries on Chow’s head, arms and legs; there were signs of muscle spasms and urinary incontinence. The firemen determined Chow’s situation to be very serious and requested backup and an ambulance through their own radio. At 1.10am, 7 firemen with first aid supplies and 3 volunteer first-aiders arrived at the scene to rescue Chow. However, he ambulance had yet to arrive after a 10 minutes wait. Meanwhile, 10 riot police rushed to the scene from the 3rd floor, and pointed guns at Ricky and another first-aider. Ricky yelled “Let us rescue him first!”, the police put down their guns after realising the presence of the firemen.
At 1.25 am, Chow’s pulse rate dropped to 40. The ambulance still had not arrived even though the firemen repeatedly called for help. Meanwhile Ricky overheard the firemen’s conversation through radio that the ambulance could not arrive because of police obstruction. After a short while, the firemen were finally able to get an ambulance on the way for another case to change its route and treat Chow first. He was then transported to the ambulance on a stretcher at 1.29am.

Police Pointed Guns at First Aiders and Ambulance Radio Mentioned Police Obstruction, Says First Aider

This is a witness account of a first-aider called Hins who provided care for the 22-year-old boy at the scene:
It was around 1am on Nov 5 when volunteer first-aider Hins and his colleague heard a bystander said a young person Chow, aged 22, fell from the 3rd floor of a car park at Sheung Tak Estate. There were already 8 to 10 paramedics from the Fire Services Department providing basic first aid service when Hins arrived at the scene. Hins asked if the paramedics knew what happened, they said they had no idea but they heard the onlookers saying that the police were chasing after Chow earlier then somehow Chow fell.
Hins said, Chow’s situation seems very serious even though there was no apparent injuries because there was a significant loss of blood. Hins described the scene as frightening as Chow vomited blood. He then asked if the paramedics had called the ambulance and they said they already did.
Hins got extremely worried and kept asking the firemen when the ambulance was going to arrive as Chow’s pulse rate was dropping constantly. “We then heard from the radio that the ambulance could not get to the scene because it was stopped by the police”. Hins added, “I was very shocked because based on the patient’s situation, he needed to be sent to the Resuscitation Room right away.”
Hins also recalled the arrival of a large group of riot police 5 to 10 minutes after he and his colleague got to the scene. They pointed guns at them and demanded them to leave immediately as the scene is very dangerous. The paramedics did not agree. They then handed over Chow to Hins and his colleague and negotiated with the police. “We are trying to save someone’s life here”, the paramedic said, “There is no danger here. We don’t need you. Please leave”.

HKUST’s Denial on Election Result of Student Council Member Arouse Discontent
Two months ago, the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) held its Student Council Member Election, in which Miss Fu beat her pro-china opponent by a record-breaking 1000 votes. Despite the landslide victory, the school delayed the appointment over its claims of alleged electioneering from the Student Union, and started an investigation in which results were promised to be released on October 1. Since then no comments or results came out. The school eventually declared its denial to the election results and announced a re-election in the next semester, arousing widespread discontent among students.
The Student Union made a statement on December 5, comdemning the school’s behaviour of blaming the Student Union for the lost of the pro-china candidate, comparing the action with the pro-China politician Starry Lee who had falsely attributed her election loss to black-clad protestors besieging polling stations. The Student Union anathematized the school with “turning a blind eye to the public will”, and announced they will submit a list of high-level school officials to the Higher Institutions International Affairs Delegation to call for sanction from the international community.
Note:
Refusal to include a full-time student-elected in the School Council was against the HKUST Ordinance (Cap.1141) Article 9(i).
